California Eagle

IN MEMORY OF GOD'S GREATEST CREATION — "MOTHER" 1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1927 E. A. Thompson, a Pulman Porter, operating between Los Angeles and Oakland on the "Owl Limited" is now being healthed as a hero for what is considered by the Los Angeles Police Department an outstanding act of bravery. Leaving Los Angeles as Porter on an observation Compartment car in which a deputy sheriff was en route to San Quinten Penitentiary with a life time prisoner, Thompson was summoned to the compartment by a frantic ringing of the bell. Upon opening the door he was fired at four times by the prisoner who had blinded the sheriff by throwing a sack of "Dull Durham" in his eyes securing his automatic. Thompson overpowered the bandit and beat him into submission with the butt of the gun, after which he hambuffed him. The sheriff was badly beaten up by the prisoner and was removed from the train at Bakersfield, Calif., and taken to a hospital. Thompson was highly praised by the Shoriff's office and also the Los Angeles Police Department. Thompson is a frail lad of 140 lbs. while the prisoner weighed 160 lbs.

"The Bells of St. Louis Decries Continued Delay in Malone Case; Criticize Receivership St. Louis, Mo, May 3.—In Negro business which grows to large proportions in the South safe? Persons who have watched the slow and uncertain but dramatic progress of the Poro case through the courts here are asking themselves that question. A business leader of St. Louis, commenting, after the latest delay in settling the case had been announced, on the net of work, of conspiracy and entanglement which has been woven around one of the race's strongest businesses, said "One of the axioms accredited to W. Gomez, late financial wizard of Durham, was 'After a Negro business institution located below the Mason and Dixon line passes the million dollar mark, it is no longer safe. White men then; to begin its power and influence and plan to cripple it.' Harry Pace, president of the Northeastern Life Insurance Company, talking in Chicago last week said he would never take his organization into southern territory to weil the Santa Ana city, that its possibilities for growth would be hampered." Colored St. Louisiana, who are viewing with growing bitterness the white receivership at Poro College, discuss in low and angry tones whever you find them the situation from which this successful racial business is trying to extricate itself and say openly that only in a town of southeastern St. Louis could such a condition exist. No one here seems to think there is any reason for a receiver for "Poro" save to make fat fees which he and those responsible for his appointment probably will share. It is common knowledge that "Poro" is not only entirely solvent and prosperous, but that it is so finely organized and so wisely conducted by Mrs. Malone, that it is a huge money-maker. Therefore, the colored populace is impatient that Peaben, the white receiver, should be kept in charge, waving theoretically at least a big gig of vengeance over a New York institution, Mrs. Malone's bond as necessary. Why not free her hands, and if a receiver is necessary, make her the receiver under bond." "Here in St. Louis," others point out, "Negroes have few rights which white people are bound to respect. Negroes cannot be in a single white restaurant, nor go into any of the white movie houses of the city, but when an institution its developed for Negroes by Negroes and appears prosperous, the whites seem to be begging an opportunity to step in and take control. They then proceed to handle it as they see it." Some of this indignation arises from the habit of the receiver and his assistants walking into the perfectly appointed Foro dining room and ordering ammonious meals, which are charged to the institution, a thing which these clonkers say has never been tolerated in even the colored department hands who pay for whatever they get. Too, one may hear them complaining that Paeben had a habit of ordering Mrs. Malone's Cadillac and chauffeufu out to haul him to and from downtown. It is admitted however, that some of the high-ranking officers which the team of "Froes" has been told to retreat from, because of the determined protests of the public and Mrs. Malone's lawyers. He returned a $600 chick which he had drawn to his own account, caused his debts to her formula and has not discharged any more of her expenses during the past several weeks. One of the reasons for this change or attitude is said to his uncertainty where his fee is come from. If it is decided as Mrs. Malone's lawyers contend will be true that no partnership exists then there will have been no reason for the appointment of a receiver and hence no reason for paying later unless it is taken from the four thousand dollar bond which Mr. Malone pays. Some of the most important political figures here are said to be few things seem significant politically may These men who claim to be able to look behind the scenes, charge that the combination of lawyers, judges and colored men who conspired to wrest Mrs. Malone's property from her are all Republicans and insist that the reason progress in the case is so slow is because of the ties binding the legal luminaries in the case. These folk claim that one of Mrs. Malone's lawyers is frequently in political conference with "Eddie" Foristel as the colored folk call Mr. Malone's active, versatile, and reputedly unscrupulous lawyer, City Collector Koein, and former Mayor Kiel, all local political bosses. Some of Mrs. Malone's friends threaten that if the Republicans aid and abet a conspiracy of this kind, it will figure in the next campaign to the benefit of the Democrats. It's a rotten situation, when men who belong to the Republican party will take advantage of the lack of protection accorded a colored institution in a border state," say these observers. "If they do that to Poro here, what theitive is it to develop Negro business?" As soon as it rises to any size the same thing will be done to it that they did to "Poro." NEGROES SUFFER A MISSISSIPPY RIVER COLLECTS UNPRECEDENTED TOLL (By A. N. P.) Memphis, Tenn., May 2.—Pestiler and death stalk in the lower Missippi Ippl Valley as men light tirelessly with apparent no avail to beat the "Father of Waters" as it rush over the land collecting an unprecedented toll of life and property. Swollen by heavy rains and its tr "Last week," point out these folk, who, like the rest of St. Louis, are watching developments closely; "when a receiver was asked for in an action similar to that of the Malone case, Judge Hartman, the same judge who appointed the Poro receiver, without notice or hearing, gave two weeks notice before a receiver would be appointed." No date has been set for the hearing of either the Malone district, case nor the truth marking the receivership permutation. My experience, equally guarded on the heath side, had reports and anecdotes that the petition is miserable, at times he rays and that because his lawyers are trying to avoid committing him to an asylum, he has not had the sort of attention which a mentally siling patient should have. Mrs. Malone, who would place the heat psychopathic talent at his disposal were she permitted, is patiently waiting for the dilatory grinding of the mills of the law. Administration The final results of Tuesday's primaries unfold a smashing victory for the people against the narrow policy of the present city administration. We find relegated to the scrap heap such stalwart close up supporters of the present city administration as Ralph Criswell in the 7th District, Otto Zahn in the 19th District, Sparks having got on for the finals in the 16th District, likewise Barnes in the 12th. Talk about reversal of form, the results were a complete upset of the wise ones, their feet when the truth dawned upon them. Colored Vote Performed In the 7th District, where quite 22 predicts are populated with a distinct majority of colored voters, over the Criswell district, so in the district they took it out on him for the Jim Crow policy swimming pool, the rubber factory on 37th St. and the iron heel methods of the police department in terrorizing residents for petty offenses throughout the black belt. Councilman Otto Zahn also as well as Cupid Sparks likewise was the victim of the trot of this people. The colored vote concentrated their support, eight candidates, and emerged victors with 7 out of the 4, which is indeed a record in optical endeavor. Life Sentence For Stealing Sandwich Oakland, Calif., May 4. Superior Judge Leona Gray sentenced Walter J. Lanter to life imprisonment when con- victed for the theft of $50 and a roast pork sandwich. The severe sentence resulted from Hunter having served three years prison terms.

Swollen by heavy rains and its trib- THE GREAT FLOOD AREA BY MG utaries, the Mississippi River continues its rampage which had its beginning some two weeks ago and what was once America's most coveted agricultural area is now a vast sea. The scope of the flood might be determined by the knowledge that millions of acres of land which line the banks of the river from Arkansas to Louisiana have been destroyed. The value of which will run into the millions, have been destroyed. The loss of life, through casualties and disease, is impossible to estimate, but the number of "known dead" is rapidly mounting and is now far into the hundreds. REFUGEES SHELTERED IN TENTS Perfect of all earthly possessions, thousands of Negro refuges are corralled in neighboring towns, living in tents, churches, and stables and these numbers are increasing as leavers after leavens and dike after dike crumbles under the lashing and on-rushing waters. At Vickersburg, Mississippi, six thousand Negroes are living in tents and four thousand whites are being cared for in the hotels. Donna Arkansas, who worked with Negroes, who formerly tiled the fertile soil around Scott Arkansas are shepherded in church buildings and harnes, while tents remain in the flooded district, living in the second stories of houses. Helena, Arkansas, is crowded with more than eight thousand Negroes who were driven from their homes by the farraguent waters. Hundreds of them were forced to flee from the fields where they were working valiantly hoping that by some way the dikes would both and they would be spared from the wealth of the riotous river that refused to be controlled by man-made services. EPIDEMIC ADDITO SUFFERING Ying with the suffering caused by the lack of sufficient clothing and the security of food is that resulting from the ravages of disease. Epidemics have broken out in fourteen refugee camps, selling Arkansas where the meagre, miserable, sleeping bough saline and saline are prevalent. To combat the disease of disease, hospitals and nurses have rushed to these areas and are working night and day. Epidemics are being vaccinated. --- Is Hero sed and inoculated with the hope of curbing disease and conserving health in the inundated regions. of Helen Wong (by the way—no relation to Anna May Wong) his love growing cold, he had quit Cora "cold." No war has served more effectively the heroism of the Negro than has this seemingly losing battle against the plungering Mississippi River. Tom Lee, who distinguished himself some two years ago by rescuing a group of white people who were about to be drowned, was among the first to volunteer for rescue work. With his 40-foot river boat, Lee has added to his glory, rescuing hundreds in the face of the enemy. In the St. Frances River District, situated below here, two thousands Negroes and four hundred whites stood on a crumbling levee, awaiting death. A rescuing stammer came up, taken on all of the whites and twenty-five Negroes, and left the others to perish. WHERE 2.3 OF PPULATION A BOODY WATERS OF THE MISSIS Facing almost certain death, these Negroes sang the song of hope and triumph which their forefathers had sung during the dark days of slavery, and continued to do so until a white man in a launch rescued them. Hundreds of Negro men in the district surrounding Scott, Arkansas, refused to flee from the flood area, but chose rather to stay with those who were fighting doggedly to stay the piliaging Mastissippi. Other instances of bravery could be cited. Rescuers with all kinds of crafts from canoe to sea-planes are working assiduously to remove refugees to places of safety and relief workers are equally as diligent in prosecuting the duty of caring for the homeless thousands. The work is thoroughly organized and is moving forward rapidly and effectively. In response to the appeal of President Coolidge $30,000,000, clothing, and food have been sent to the Food region to be used in caring for the refugees and to these contributions and gifts many are more comfortable. While Memphis is not affected directly by the Road, but like every other city in America, it is teaming with interest in an excitement over America's greatest tragedy that is being enacted in the outlying districts, and is hoping that the acute condition will soon be abated. Shoots Cast-Off Sweet Heart in Pistol Duel "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" is an old usage that hams to life Sunday night and wields a gun battle between Edmund Gorman an allegle real saints edleman, and Cora Robinson, at 1149 E 58th St. The of Helen Wong (by the way—no relation to Anna May Wong) his love growing cold, he had quit Cora "cold." During the evening, about 9 o'clock, she joined the others in the party and went from where they were at 3615 Paloma to 1449 Paloma. On arrival at the house and finding Gordon and Miss Wong there, she drew a pistol to shoot gordon. Gordon drew also and fired point blank at her, the bullet striking her in the forehead and crumpling her to the floor, where she lay until the arrival of the officers. They found the gun, a 38 calibre Harrington and Richardson, under her body, while in the next room; they found a 32-20 S. & W. that Gordon admitted he shot her with. She was removed to the hospital where she lies in a serious condition. Gordon is held in the county jail for preliminary trial. ARE COLORED, BEING SWEPT SIPPI. Brilliant Song Recital Mimie M.

Chism, intensely interested in the welfare and progress of the Association. He was here, there and everywhere to make everybody welcome and at ease and to make their stay worth while. He was truly the enigma man and through his good offices every day was a big day during the meeting of the Press gang. Broadgauged, suave, the soul of honor, did he go on his way to make everybody happy. The big banquet was the handwork of Chism, the boys' meeting, all were superintended by Mr. Chism, and his thoughtfulness by which each member was presented with a valuable and beautiful souvenir. Truly Melvin J. Chism is a Field Secretary worth while. Personally, we hesitate not to say that the princely friend of my husband was responsible in a major degree of making our stay in the Negro capital of the Nation, both a memorable and pleasant one. Young Woman's Christian Association, Indiana Avenue Branch, where we stopped in Chicago, we found a very responsive group of young women striving to make a goal, either in the business or professional world. Mrs. Lulu E. Lawson, general secretary, is a highly cultured woman who is striving for the best contact and the highest possible elevation for her group of young women at the Indiana Branch. A special program for Mother's Day has been planned for Second Baptist Church. In anticipation that many people will on that day honor their mothers both living and dead, the big doors of the Auditorium will swing wide for their accommodation. Every young man and every young woman should go to church that day. They should consider what mother has been to them. The decorations, and the music and the entire services are planned in keeping with the day. The pastor's sermon subject in the morning will be "The Daughter of God as the Mothers of Men". The Young People's Department of the Church will conduct the evening program in honor of Mother. The Junior choir will sing; there will be special musical numbers by young people. Miss Mary Banks will represent the young women in making the tribute to Mother, and Mr. Lloyd C. Griffith will represent the young men, using as a subject "The Strategic Question Facing Young Mothers of the Twentieth Century." The Sunday School opens at 6:30 in eight Dpartments. The main services begin at sharp eleven. We are urging everybody to be in their seats for opening at 8:30 P.M. the R.Y.P. Unit in two Dpartments. Evening services start at sharp 8.

ROBERT FISHER BURIED Robert Fisher better known as Bob Fisher among the railroad men was buried last week from Connor and Johnson's funeral parlor after an up hill pull of over two years in a valiant effort to regain his health. Bob had been given up to die several times, but his exceptional will power seemed to always pull him together for a fresh start and so he lingered on in this manner hovering between life and death until the Master called him last week. Bob was very popular with the men of this district having operated the Sacramento line for some time from which line he came to the "Lark" where he was first taken sick. He leaves to mourn his loss a loving wife and a host of Boy, Cleggman preached the funeral which was attended by approximately a hundred Pullman. Porters. CRAZY MAN RUNS AMUCK ON TRAIN A crazy passenger en route from New Orleans climbed down from an upper berth during the night and went rampaging up in the day coach of the train where he struck a sleeping passenger in the head with his fat. He then stuck his feet through a window before he was overpowered and handcuffed. Porter C. B. Andrews, a new arrival in this district, was in charge of the Pullman and related the story to the writer. $30,000 JEWELS LOOT, IN SOCIETY TEA ROBBERY RECOVERED ABOARD TRAIN The "Iron Duke" a meticulous jewell crook was arrested on board a speeding Southern Pacific train in the Mojo deserts near Chicago. He said to have cached $30,000 worth of diamonds in a washroom of a Pullman car of which Porter C. H. Jackson was in charge. He was attempting to make his escape to San Francisco. A loaded automatic pistol was found in the man's bag when the officers clamped the steel handcuffs on his wrist. Pullman conductor Jack Beauman who had charge of the train was shadowed every second during his layover in Seattle by detectives who thought that he might have some knowledge of the whereabouts of the balance of the loot. PORTERS CLAIM BEDROOM CAR A WORKHOUSE A WORKHOUSE The operating of one of the latest type bedroom cars on the "Lark" has brought forth much walling from the Porters or chamberliness) who will be able to carry the car with Porter L. Jenkins the first man to take one to Sai Framisco. They are far from satisfactory as far as the porter goes. Jenkins claims that he started to prepare the car for the reception of passengers at 3:30 P. M. and worked every minute up until receiving hour which is 7:35 P. M. After you reach the yards the Porter must fold up all blankets and put them in the locker, put away all the floor mats, thermos bottles and numerous other equipment which consumes much time. About nine rooms were occupied on the initial trip, and they average about the same as passengers occupying the regular compartment cars. The only advantage that a porter has on the new car is to have his work all finished when he backs into the depot. It is thought that they will have to pool the M car. They expect any one of them to be able to carry the car on the deck and the man of this district aren't looking for work by any means. The name of the first car to leave on the "Lark" is "Night Watch" and is to be operated in addition to the regular compartment cars now already on the "Lark". "LARK" UP FOR SID Porters are in confusion over the posting up of the "Lark", entire train for lift. One account of the new car specifically warrants this train it is every year, and wild peramble has no reason for a permanent car; everyone is skimming the new car on account of the work attached, and we look for some new faces on this train in the near future. SOUTHERN PACIFIC DINING CAR EMPLOYEES TO GIVE DANCE The Southern Pacific Dining Car emblyves are meeting event necessaries. tions for their first annual Spring Picnic which will take place Saturday, May 19th at 10th and 11th. Music by Sunnyboy music will be rendered by the Sunnyboy Schillingsit Oggetton Bayham Kings. Invitations are now in the mail and according to Clarence Johnson a record crowd is expected at stall. It will be commended. But the game given by those boys last year was the outstanding event of 1986. This year the Johnson promises to be a year's dance. So if predictions come true this will be a red hot affair, the committee consisting of Richard Burles that Southern Pacific shell. Douglas De Yauhn, and J. B. Tanner speaks for itself. Get your soup and fash ready now because everybody that is anybody will be there May 19th. Southern Pacific red caps are in the midst of their voyage, striving hard to make it a hundred per cent. Each porter has a button which they wear on their uniforms with the inscription "No-Error Week." Rocks in the Bed J. D. Fowler and Luther Wilson are seen daily taking cat naps on desk chairs and tables in the Red Caps' quarters at the Santa Fe. We wonder if they have rocks in their beds at home nights. WO wonder!

The Santa Fe Red Caps are planning on presenting B. L. McDowell with a pair of roller skates for his birthday which is this month. The Porters operating on the "Sunset Limited" have requested that the line be pooled. This will require 15 men to operate it. New Orleans Porters have been given lines 3463, 2640%, and 3489% from New Orleans to Los Angeles. Well! Los Angeles porters should not make any holier over this 'especially this summer.

Los Angeles Porters have been given the Gold Coast permanently. For a while it was rumored that Chicago would it be back this summer. Porter G. D.

The lower anterior or incisor teeth are usually the first to erupt. The full set are in place at about the second to third year. We cannot impress upon our readers too strongly the value of these baby teeth to the health and economy of the child: if you value your child's health and the proper development of his jaws and consequent appearance, do not neglect his temporary teeth. The deciduous teeth serve not only to properly masticate the food of the growing child, but also aid in the development of the jaws, and act as guides for the correct alignment of the permanent set which follow. If the deciduous teeth are neglected and allowed to decay, the succeeding permanent teeth are almost certain to be affected. Every effort should be made to preserve and retain these teeth until such time as nature displaces them to make room for the permanent set. The toilet of the teeth should begin as soon as the teeth are fully erupted; the baby teeth should be cleaned regularly each day with a piece of absorbent cotton, saturated with a solution of borax or weak salt solution. As soon as the child's old enough, about four or five years—he should be taught the use of the toothbrush (use a small soft bristle brush which will not injure the delicate tissues of the mouth but will at the same time, cleanse the spaces between the teeth). Encourage tooth and mouth cleanliness in childhood, and the practice becomes a habit not easily broken. If mothers would be as diligent concerning the cleanliness of their children's teeth as they are of their children's neck and ears, there would be far less need of the dentist in later years. Examinations by the dentist should be made of the child's teeth at frequent intervals—at least every six in order to detect and fill any cavity which may appear, since decay once started in children's teeth progresses very rapidly—than decay in the teeth of adults, owing to fact that children as a rule consume a great deal of sweets and soft foods. The diet has a direct bearing not only on the health of the teeth and gums but also on the development of the jaws. Coarse foods, such as whole wheat bread, green vegetables, fresh fruit, the coarser cuts of meat, etc. in other words, foods that require the use of the teeth, all make for well developed jaws. White teeth, and healthy gums. White bread, soft foods, and an overabundance of sweets and pastries are sworn enemies to oral health, and should be avoided as much as possible, especially in children's diet. Under the direction of the Educational Committee of the Twelfth Street Branch, W. W. C. A., a series of lectures will be held at the Branch on each Monday night during the month of May.

One of the suggestions sent out by the National "Automobile Club to the motorist in this season of the year is to "keep the highways clean". Every picnicking party that leaves the city on a week-end jaunt carries a supply of tin cans, newspapers and stray waste material which, usually on a Monday morning, appears in a conspicuous place on the face of Nature. Drive along our country highways after the summer touring season has been in full swing for a month or two and you will find abatement evidence of the need for some restriction upon the traveling public in the way of disposing of refuse after a momentary halt at some picturesque point in the journey. The forest camps demand that the picnic refuse be burned or buried and if every motorist would feel the necessity of this mode of procedure, his favorite picnicking spots would always be clean and inviting and there would be less opposition on the part of the country farmer to the picnicking motorist on his Sunday expedition on the open road. The General's Highway in Sequoia National Park is in good shape as far as Hospital Rock, seven and a half miles from the end of the State highway, it is reported to the touring bureau of the Automobile Club of Southern California. It is expected that this route in the Southland playground woul dopen and in excellent condition as far as the Giant Forest Trail, two and one half miles from Giant Forest, if new storms did not arrive. Excellent shape is reported for the road to General Grant National Park to a point called the Big Stump, one and a half miles from the park. Latest information is available at auto club offices. The Sequoia Giganteas in Giant Forest are beginning to blossom, so that brilliant yellow crowns are seen contrasted against the somber green of the forest background. More than eighteen varieties of flowers are reported in bloom in the adjacent foothills and canyons. Safety Glass Company Opens Office in City Formation of the California Triplex Safety Glass Company with offices at 1145 South San Pedro street, Los Angeles, is announced. The company, directed by Mr. W. E. Gephart, is a branch of the Triplex Safety Glass Company of North America, with head- quarters at 75 West street, New Norz- Mr. Gephart will have the California territory and vicinity. The product of this company is a plate glass that does not shatter, for use in auto windshields, jewelers, show cases, and shatter places. It has Recently Col. L. P. Ayres, nationally known economist, gave out some interesting figures in regard to the automotive as well as the automobile tire and gasoline business. Col. Ayres's report shows that as yet the closest approach to saturation point in automobile sales and production is a very 'slight symptom,' and so far as tire business is concerned, none whatever. More than 17,000,000 passenger automobiles were in use at the end of 1926—and it is estimated that close to 1,000,00 cars are funked each year. Cod. Ayres's report brings out that tire production and sales 'go steadily forward year by year whether general business is good or bad, and without much relationship to the actual production of new automobiles.' This is due to the fact that most automobiles are in use about the same amount of time and for approximately the same mileage regardless of how times are. Of course, the longer the cars are driven the more tires they use up. With the normal seasonal increase in the use of automobiles for touring and excursions this spring, it is very evident that prices will follow the increasing demand, as tires today are being sold at the lowest prices in many years and it is reported that manufacturers are doing little better than breaking even at these low prices. Ignition Troubles Prove Most Common Statistics secured through the emergency roundabout services of automobile clubs all over the world are proving valuable to manufacturers of automobiles as well as service men in pointing out the weaknesses of motor cars on the road. The latest report of the Royal Automobile Club of England is of particular interest including as it does a comprehensive survey of all the causes of accident as well as delay to motor traffic on the road. As with the National Automobile Club emergency service, the English motorist suffers his principal trouble from the ignition system. The English Club shows that 22.5% of the engine trouble comes from this cause. Accidents account for 14.1% while rear axle trouble is charged with 12.6%. The annual report of the Service Department of the National Automobile Club shows that 40.5% of the calls for aid necessitate a tow; 26.5% come under the classification of roadside repair; 9.9% for gas and oil and 23.1% for tire change. Ignition and battery trouble are the chief causes of calls for aid, mechanical trouble is second and tire change third. Cars stuck in mud or sand are fourth on the list, wrecked automobiles hitch and calls for gas and oil act for strich place. been in wide use in England since 1914, where it is compulsory equipment on many public vehicles and air-mail planes, buses and subways. It was this plane which Munzolini ordered from England immediately after the recent Arab attack on his car. The plane is made of three layers, the middle being of pyralin, and the outside one of plume glass. EXHARP Twas an exciting moment in the neighborhood of Bunset and Hammond St. Pigeonge, last Sunday afternoon, when young Mr. Winston Jr., the gallant son of Mr. Thad Winston, Los Angeles successful contractor, eyes capped the beautiful daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Clarke sitting on the porch of her parents' drinking in the sunshine. Brakes were immediately applied to bring the speeding lizzy to a stop. Results: 2 tires blew out, head on collision at street intersection, both cars wrecked. The young man is in the hospital; the young lady ill from the shock; the Clarkes sorry it happened and Pa Winston on the warpath with mother, the youngster's best friend, trying to cool him off. We sincerely hope that father will have a heart this one time and forgive his son.

FAber 0176 MRS MATTIE JACKSON 1115-1117 E. 10th St. Los Angeles, Ef. * Page-Two War Declared on Lower California Development Company At last we, the three adventurous huntsmen have smoked the old "coon" from his nole! They came out last week in a measly little article stating that all the insinuations that have been published against the integrity, character and ability of Hugh E. Macbeth in connection with the development and control of the industrial and Development Co. are absolutely untrue and that our purpose is to engage Mr. Macbeth in a nasty public controversy. If Hugh M. Macbeth had been Robinson Crusoe he could not have picked a better "good man Friday" than he picked—L. H. Bryant. The writer of this little article that appeared in last week's paper further states that the Board of Directors of the Lower California Mexican Land and Development Co. had knowledge of and gave their consent to its publication. Now just to show you that the signer of this article has no special regard for the truth or that his mind is feeble, it is the common knowledge of the entire Board of Directors that Mr. J. H. Stevens, who is one of the writers of this article appearing here was duly elected by the stockholders to that board in the last stockholders meeting with the largest majority of any candidate for the office of director. It is further known by Mr. Bryant who served as secretary at this meeting that he has not taken the matter of the publication of this article up with Mr. Stevens. In other words, Mr. Bryant knows that Mr. Stevens had no knowledge of this publication nor had Mr. Stevens given his consent. Now how could a real intelligent man have made such a statement to the public. Something must be wrong or Hugh E. Macbeth would have had more knowledge how to better cover up himself than this poor fellow. We would advise this brother to go to his attorney for instructions before he makes another statement like that. We must apologize to our readers for having taken up their time with matters pertaining to such small "fish." We are after a whale and he is already harpooned, and we are only waiting to safely land him. We are not going into details this week of the goings of our unfortunate and ill advised company. We are very busy with some matters that may furnish glowing headlines in our city daily papers. Should it happen all you need to do is to get this paper next week and you will find all of the details of it there. In conclusion, we would ask that you again grant the three adventurous hounds the privilege of congratulating themselves on the fact that they have smoked the old "cooh" out of his hole. The huntsmen are well fortified with smudge pots and they are going to pour out smoke upon smoke until they clean out the old hole. Before we have finished this smoking process we expect to see rats, snakes, skunks and every kind of creeping thing come tumbling down like Joshua's wall of yore. TO Whom It May Concern This is to certify that all of the insinuations which have been published against the character, integrity and ability of Attorney Hugh E. Macbeth in connection with the development and control of the Lower California Mexican Land & Development Company are absolutely untrue, in fact, and are being published for the sole purpose of getting Mr. Macbeth to engage in a nasty public controversy for his disgruntled man which Mr. Macbeth will willingly refuse to do. This publication is given with the knowledge and consent of the Board of Directors of the Lower California Mexican Land & Development Company. L. H. BRYANT, Secretary of Lower California Mexican Land & Development Co. "AMERICAN WOODMEN CELEBRA "TION LARGELY ATTENDED" A large and enthusiastic crowd of Woodmen and their friends filled the Independent Church on last Sunday afternoon to participate in the twenty-sixth anniversary celebration of the Supreme Camp and the fifth anniversary of the Los Angeles Camps. The programme which consisted of addresses by the representatives of several departments and auxiliary departments depicting he progress of the Order both nationally and locally, were both entertaining and instructive specialties by H. K. Weeks who told of the Local Camp and its Influence in the Community, and Supervisor B. H. Graham whose subject "The Mission of Fraternal Insurance" closed the programme. Several musical numbers were interposed in the programme among which were included a solo by Mrs. Hattie E. Norwood, a violin solo by Miss Juanna Craddock and several encores by the Bibrow Ladies Quartet. The Green Cross Nurse Corps composed of about a score of young indies immaculately clad in the garb of nurses elicited much favorable comment. Pictures were made of the gathering.

The usual interesting Board Meeting was held in the morning and club reports and program in the afternoon. Many interesting club reports were read, showing that the club women are doing worthwhile work and putting over their program big. The majority of the clubs paid their $7 assessments for entertaining the coming Federation. Mrs. Homer Dean, Reciprocity chairman, presented a reading by Mrs. Thomas and Rev. J. A. Moore speaker of the day. Rev. Moore gave some pointed remarks that should have reached the ears of every woman in this section. Mrs. Elizabeth Edwards, section president, presided. The Friday Morning Iroquois Club held an inspiring civic lunchon at Christian Tavern last Friday morning. Mrs. M. G. Patton, president, introduced Mrs. Eda Steward, who then introduced Attorney Lewis - Beeks master of ceremonies, and who was instrumental in bringing to the Club the whole body and furnished Judges Chesa E. Haas, R. Morgun Galbreth and McCoy, each of whom made interesting remarks. The lunchon was a tremendous success. This club also gave a most successful State Tea last Sunday from 4 to 7 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Edwards on E. 17th St. Mrs. Lewis Beeks won the prize for bringing the largest number of guests, a beautiful hand-embroidered lunch set and Mrs. Page, second prize, a beautiful waxed water lily.

Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Jr. whose mother is honored by this club, was present and made interesting remarks.

THE NE PLUS ULTRA ART AND LITERARY CLUB The Ne Plus Ultra held its regular meeting, Friday, April 10 at the home of Mildred Anderson on East Jefferson. Owing to the absence of our president, Dorothy Johnston, who is spending her vacation in Alabama, the meeting was called to order by our vice president, Helen Smith. Old and new business was discussed and the plans for the social to be held in the future were talked over. The dance at Christian's Tavern, April 1st was reported a bage success. The meeting was adourned and refreshments were served. Broadcasting G. P. G. R. C. The Golden Poppy Girls' Reserve Club is back on the air. As we have been planning for the near future, we haven't had time to broadcast. We are planning to give a social of some kind soon and we hope that all the readers of this paper and club members will patronize us. The Club members are giving a series of health talks which prove very useful as well as interesting. There were two talks given, one by Miss Thelma Gatlin* "Health in Relation to Feet!" and one by Miss Marlon Hendrick "Health due to Public Cleanliness." Club met over to Miss Dorothy McDaniels and she proved a very interesting and entertaining hostess. NELLIE HAWKINS, Pres. JUANITA BAREFIELD, Reporter PLEASURE SEEKERS CLUB Mrs. Berrice Wyndon entertained the Pleasure Seekers Club. Wednesday at her home A very dainty luncheon was served and the table was pretty decorated with sweet peas and Easter favors. The afternoon was spent playing whist.

The guests for the ROYAL CRESCENT CLUB The Royal Crescent Club met at the residence of Joseph Williams, 3781 Halldale with their president, Wendell Hill.

MARDI GRAS The Mardi Grass Festival given by the E. Fluribus Unum Club, Saturday, April 23rd, in the Republican Hall, was quite a success. The hall was cleverly streamed and lighted in the club colors, peach and white, while the cool, refreshing punch was of a peach color with sliced, floating bananas. Everyone, from a Spanish Senorita, including Colonial Maids, Japanese Girls, Egyptian Dancers and Caballeros, to an American Civilian, swayed and glided to the red hot, symbappting music rendered by an orchestra of three, Leon Rene, Roy and Marvin Johnson. Among those present were: Misses Rivierda Wood, Ernestine Holman of Long Beach, Kingdon Tompson, Geraldine May, Messrs, Jules and Wm. Narcisse, James and Ellis Salbury, Thomas Myles, Clifford Allen, Engene Pickett and Clifford Barrett. By the way, all the E. P. U's were there. Do you know them? Good time to get acquainted.

The Musical Tea given by the Girls of Flaming Youth Club at the unique Le Republican Tea Room, Sunday afternoon, was a magnificent affair and a grand success. April's most colorful and fragrant flowers were in abundance in the lovely spacious Tea Room, which helped to cheer the host of friends who were present. Tea, nuts, candies and sandwiches was served the guests by the skillful and artistic club girls. An elaborate musical program was rendered throughout the evening by some of Los Angeles' most prominent and talented young people. The following persons participated on the program: Misses Thelma Dais' Thelma Swanson, Thelma Bella, Henrietta Jones, Dorothy Gray, Baby Collier, Girls Reserve Glee Club, Baby Gladys Mathsonian, Hazel Earl, Velma White; Mrs. Bartleson (Supervisor) and Messrs. Ronald and Bernard Jefferson Jackson, Palmer Johnson, Louis V. Cole, Robert Berkley, Johnson, Roy Clark; Miss Lillian E. Jennings, Mistress of Cermonies and Mmc. Mable Gray, Supervisor. With a woman of such intellectual ability, a charming personality, a woman who stands for what she perceives to be people, a woman who is able to make Mabe Grey, supervisor of the Girls of Flaming Youth Club, there is no reason why the girls should not be commended for the excellent intelligent manner in which they entertained. The host of friends departed late in the evening having spent a very enjoyable afternoon.

C., U. S. C., Olympic Club, U. of C., "Silk Stocks" representing Pasadena Junior College got away with sight honors which classes him as the high point man of the meet, besides getting a loving out. There never has been a meet where he has competed that he has not been high point man and argues well for his exclusive efficiency. Real soon he will have finished in Pasadena Junior College but he hasn't deceived in what college he will further his training, it is to be admitted he will be a valuable asset to the athletic activities of any school. The Dramatic Club of Pasadena, composed of the younger set had a hike to Oak Wild on last Sunday. This Club is composed of the heat young people of the city and they are very anxious to get their work before the public and with such officers as Miss Lula Prince and Mr. Leilee Banka, President and Secretary, respectfully they are destined to make an enviable reputation. Misses Geneva Stocks and Frances Birch attended the Garland Anderson production, "Appearances," one day last week which they enjoyed immensely after which they took lunch on the Elite Cafe. These young girls are most popular among the younger set. The Airplane, drive for membership under the auspices of Senior, Department of the Friendship Baptist Church with Mrs. Johnbie Harrison as Superintendent of that department, is resulting in a great addition to that department. Miss Frances Harris is away in the lead and it is said of Miss Harris she never loses. The drive ends on the Fourth Sunday in May. It is to be regretted that the reconstruction program outlined by the City Fathers calls for the raising of the First A. M. E. Church and other well-established home in that vicinity. Only recently has that parish gone through an extensive building program to beautify their building as well as the corner and that it is regrettable indeed to say the least that their work has been for naught. They have option on certain properties in South Pasadena Avenue and the Church was called together last Monday night to devise plans and means to overcome the inerable situation. With the corner thus improved there is no reason why a fabulous sum should not be obtained for the present site. Rev. J. M. Brown has worked most ardently since entering upon his-pastoral duties in Pasadena, has accomplished great things and his influence has been mightily tide. Mr. J. C.

What has become of the Civic League that was destined to cut such a wide swath in the city's affairs as concerning our group? We predicted with the boring of this urgent body that it would blow up almost over night. We learn however that divers contentivities is the cause of its present inactivities but it seems some tangible effort should be made to keep the organization intact without every man being the sole dictator. For some other reason, the other three of radicalism creep into every organization of the kind ever launched in Pasadena and if not that it develops a rendezvous for invertebrate bootleggers or h jackagers where every man gets what he can and lets the other fellow to do the bow wows. There is no political status in Pasadena as far as the Negro is concerned, it is only a matter of taking what you are offered or leave it alone. The only remuneration anyone has ever received was a few salary dollars to put in his "JEANS" as far as the race is concerned there is no politics. The right of franchise has warranted him nothing because he has failed to stick together. What are you going to do about it?

Church has inaugurated a two-minute speaking schedule for each Sunday morning when subjects are assigned individuals which have proven quite an interesting feature along with the regular service. Succeeding Sundays have proven more interesting because of the effort of each speaker to impress some thought or make his argument more convincing.

The iron and steel plants, in which a large proportion of Negroes are employed, showed improvement in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Prolonged unemployment periods in the West were eased and the mount closed with brighter prospects for April. Conditions Among Negroes Reports from our associates in scattered parts of the United States tell of unemployment and curtailment in working hours almost without exception. This caused a general restlessness with the result that workers moved back and forth among cities within easy reach of each other. Baltimore and Columbus, usually fruitful cities for Negro workers, and among the last to feel the depression, reported large number out of work. Specific reasons were given for the shortage of work among Negroes in certain cities. For instance, in Springfield, Illinois, mine lockouts or strikes have forced some 5,000 men out of work, of whom 225 were Negroes; and in Florida work ordinarily done by Negroes is being taken from them and given to whites, and wages have been cut. In Milwaukee the retirement of colored waiters has been forced by patrons of a large hotel. Organized Labor Here and there were incidents showing relationship with organized labor. In Baltimore, the Young Workers Labor Party has been especially active—two colored speakers appearing at its open forum. One half of the brick-masons of Lexington, Kentucky who received a raise from $1.25 to $1.50 per hour were Negroes. In Philadelphia, through the Arnstrong Association there, the co-operation of colored employees was sought and secured in a recent labor dispute between the Manufacturers' Association and the labor forces of that city.

Upon the face, it appears as a greasy or oily coating, usually upon the nose or forehead. On the head, it or less greasy, dry, yellowish or grayish scales which lie in close contact is the scaly form or occurring as more with the scalp until scratched loose or becoming quite dry are cast off in branlike flakes. The most successful local treatment is the hot oil treatment. Remove this entirely with Poro skin or scalp soap and warm water, followed by a Poro rinse.

We call attention to our editorial of last week headed "Tuesday's Primaries". Read it and compare the same with the results of the primaries held on that day. We lay no claim as a prophet, but it must be admitted that with unerring precision, we forecasted the result. "Wrong must not and cannot endure forever". The tramppling of the rights of the people had tobe atoned for and the key men of the present city administration were just as ruthlessly swept aside and sonsigned tothe scrap heap as they suffered Jim Crow methods to obtain in this fair city. It was also a death knell to the ruthless meandering of a band of cossacks parading up and down the streets of the black belt beating up and even killing defenseless citizens. Notice has been served that these pernicious practices cease for at the portals of the voting booth is the place where all wrongs for our government can and will be righted.

The ruthless crusades of the cossacks was the undoing of Sparks and of Barnes and Hall was the only one who was considered high up in the councils of the administration who escaped the wrath of the people. Therefore, the wise and unwise directors of the present city administration have to go down in sack cloth and ashes, before they emerge again. Their policy of Jim Crow and of allowing a police chief to dictate and brow beat a large and loyal part of its citizenship would not work. It was not wise, but unwise. We congratulate The Pacific Defender upon its new headress and its general trend of progress. Among educational rious auspices is one giving minder of the duty of ma- tent and responsible exec- be plain, yet thousands die the circumstance, their state laws, which cannot accordance with individu- results, with much sufferi- Among educational campaigns being conducted under various auspices is one giving every man and every woman a reminder of the duty of making a will and of appointing competent and responsible executors. The importance of this should be plain, yet thousands die yearly without making wills. Under the circumstance, their property is disposed of according to state laws, which cannot undertake to deal with the families in accordance with individual requirements. Frequently injustice results, with much suffering entailed. This emphasizes the duty of making a will. Men and women should realize that only in this way can their estates be distributed as they would wish. The chief trouble, however, is simply neglect. Some who realize their duty to have their wills drawn keep putting off the discharge of it to "another time". But a fatal accident or a sudden illness affecting their minds and rendering them men, tally incompetent to the end may occur and, obviously, make it impossible to repair the neglect. While the normal expectation of those in their prime is to live "to three score and ten" or more, it is only common sense and common prudence to recognise the pecuity of life. Although the drawing of a will naturally takes into consideration the certainty of the coming of death some time to the testator, it should constantly be kept uppermost that the whole purpose of the instrument is the service of life; the care of the "dear ones" of the decendent who remains behind or the cause of humanity in general. The drawing of a will ought to be recognized as a thing not to be "put off". There is a dispute in progress as to who originated the idea. For the rest of us that is unimportant. But it is easy to understand why any person responsible for so inspiring a thought should cherish the credit for it and yet nothing could be more unlike a mother than to aquabble about whose was the credit. One need only consult one's own experience and seek in vain to recall a single instance when mother sought credit for the service and love she here her kin. The home may have looked especially tidy, the meal may have been unusually tasty, MAKE A WILL. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE the covers might have been rucked with special care, the sick room may have been comforted by her almost divine presence, vet not in a single instance did she claim credit for it. Mothers find their satisfaction in something else. It will be an odd son and daughter who permit Sunday to pass without some message, some greeting to their living mother or without some love-tinctured remembrance or tribute to the mother dead. From the motherless everywhere to the mothered child anywhere goes the counsel to dedicate Sunday to her honor and her service. Fearless, informative and democratic is ring the words of the little "big" woman of the Eagle staff in her theme "The New Negro and Old Tines".

Loves her tongue, good logic, keen wit, fully equal to Will Rogers, the phantom Mayor of Beverly Hills, speaker Bolds holds her audience in apellbound and happy magnetism. A brave little woman with a big-purpose in life. Oh-good features at her lecture on Wednesday, April 27th at Second Baptist Church. The Progressive Women's Business Club and Division No. 8 of the Second Baptist Church presented Mrs. C.A. Bass, the Managing Editor of the California Eagle at the Second Baptist Church on Wednesday evening, April 27, 1927, in her travelogue Lecture, "The New Negro and Old Times," before a thoughtful, responsive and mix of interest or about 800 people, representing Negroes, and, as far as the Caucasians are concerned, mostly the political aspirants, with few exceptions, of the white group. Mrs. Charlotte A. Bass is an original, typically plain, and openly unpolished woman with very young ideas upon rugged, old basic lines—a woman who marches in the free life of the young, arriving Negro, but who, outside of her hobbled hair, remains of the good, old school of womankind—a clean, but simply dressed, a most characteristically modest, but unadored woman of non-jewelry non-filtration-robins, non-dalies-trimming, a notable type of the masses with big society unheeded and uninfluencing, for Charlotte A. Spear-Bass only thrives in an atmosphere of the women-workers and the men-tollers, and never was framed into life to be an elder, a drone, a gossiper or a society-belle]. Untouched by the mad auto-ring-painting and filling-out habits of the transforming present-day female. Mrs. C. A. Bass is nature's dutiful child and never-plays foolish antics with her body, nor bug-house changes with her well-balanced mind. A square type-woman of this useful species will be acclaimed by the deep ranks of the people, while society-butterflies and high jinks performers never play long in the toil-yard of Mrs. Bass and her leveted followers. Let us just pass a few remarks as to her ability as a speaker. She hits the heart even more often yet, than the mind, though she is no useless phrase-maker, no superfluity-talker, no wordsmith, who would substitute in word, what may be lacking in ideas. Her appeal is a race appeal with strong, apt, convincing illustrations taken from the practical lives of both the Negroes and the non-Negroes, and there is flowing fervency of truth in her reality-remarks that challenges fault-finding opponents and wrong-adjudging objectors. A keynote, too, of womenly independence runs through her remarks: like the spray-spraying apples through the window, like the thought-machine anyone can see, that though modest and womanly Mrs. Rass' is at all times, she is a woman's woman, and not a subjugated men's tool, never wearing the collar of sex-eiderm around her very free-moving neck, and always his mind. She travelled with the audience after a brief sojourn in New England, or Harlem, New York, to Chicago Springfield and special localities, in Illinois, bringing her auditors to St. Louis, Mo., Topeka, Kansas, and sull'other some places, back to her chosen life-long quarters of Los Angeles. Hefty and pointed, plerching and directly home-striking were her ideas about the onward strides of the race in the great, historical Harlem section and powerful and yet soothing was her picture of the hustling 'building, doing and moving Negroes of Harlem—Negroes, who were noticed and watched by all humanity, but most particularly by the watchful and waiting Sowers into Harlem's black-heat "to find out really what is doing these." She shares of the brainy dark Pikons, who lived Russia and was specified in that country with great houses, and unusual references and it seemed, that down deep in her heart Mrs. Bess like the most intense love and admiration for these "Coolidge-inspired" Russians, who however, are so good and square to the Negroes. So from the address of Mrs. Bess it must be concluded that Russians are watching black Harlem, because the Russian, too, are watching England even more so, the same England that today in the greatest drawback the black man has anywhere, and the world, worse than France, and thus as bad as America! Therefore, if Russia watches Harlem, it also watches England within the stolen lands in Africa and the dense territories of Hindustan and other sections. Great, masterly, really humanity-searching and humanity-estimating minds gather in Negro Harlem, the greatest Negro centre in a small city in the world. Here, it was, as Mrs. Bass brought out an forcefully, where Van Vechen secured his Negro material to write the book, a great and very novel and instructive book, called by him foolishly and even, flippantly, "Nigger Heaven." Had be called it, "The Negro's Pazadise!" or, so it, would have been a much more appropriate and appreciated name. Mrs. Bass contends sharply and uncompromisingly, with those slanderers that call the racepeople out of their names, manslining or slandering them. Like the Jews, she demands human respect for her race of people and will never rest until such needful and deserving and tolerance for the Negro is granted through beaseless organisation, education and protest, toiling along always against ridicule and detainment. Mr. Van Vechen's book is very good, but the title name very, very bad and the speaker told especially the white hearers that, it is too late in the season now to come with a senseless, monstrous, empty name as "Nigger." Tolerance, justice and civility for the Negro are Mrs. Bass demands from the American white man. In Mrs. Bass' mind, New York rejoices New York at his economic, financially, financially, economically, and also, of course, culturally, whilst in Chicago, the Negro looms strongest politically, to any other location in the city, giving glowing titles to the DuBois, the DuBois, the DuBois, the poet. Paul Lawrence Dunbar, the dead, last living and Claude McKay, Countée Cullen, Langston Hughes, James Weldon Johnson and others, all living, but not dead, fared very nicely at the hands of our poetry posts losing Mrs. Bass. It is strange that such a wman admirer of poetry as Mrs. Bass is, never wrote any herself, but perhaps, the time was too short and prose, therefore much handwritten. Her love of poetry is so great that two masterpieces of young, new master poets concluded her very timely, pungent, sweeping, new Negro addresses. the Nils and death struggles of the Negro. All she learned while Lady judge could do of say were to red居加prova over the old joins Mr. Bass was so wildly making "honorous, too, pregnant with lightning fashers of biting wit at times, was the Best discourse and it "Bill" Roxford, the plain, own Mayor of Beverly Hills, had been a listener in the audience, he could have adopted a few gems of Mrs. Bass's side-shifting satire-hits, to ride up his familiar Pegasus Mrs. Bass has the lucky supreme faculty to say the funniest things with twice as earnest a face as when she speaks of really sad and tragic things, she never laughs over her own humor and that makes her strong with her audience, that feels that she speaks much rather for the good of the race than to amuse her own self. Her pleas for the church and her great comfort in prayer or completely balanced her admiration for Russia and the innermost prayer for sincerity of the Negro-heart was revealed by her demonstrative loyalty to the Negro's greatest and most historical hove—praver and faith. In her excursion to St. Louis, she found this buche-house she man Malone, and she dealt him a square blow over his "pinhead" skull and called Mrs. Malone the creator and the maker of this wonderful Parvo College, that Mrs. Bass hopes, will not go under on account of an idiotic non-wise, useless sort of a pity-putty man. She arraigned the desolate and congested school conditions in St. Louis, deployed the one dunggle-high school or lowest degree of all the Negro's high school pupils, criticized bitterly the condition of segregated schools, their curfew and segregated system, but censured the Negroes, who fall for such backwoods-segregation-customs, even worse than the intolerant whitags, who inflict them. Briefly she spoke of her many personal friends and relatives and her husband's home town Topeka, and various other things. The most timely thing she said in her whole, notable address was her good advice, when she described the grand meeting of the Negro Press Association in Chicago, where she was an honored delegate and guest, for Negroes to "stand by their 400 or more race papers in this country." She was then first-tasting diplomat enough to state that her own paper, the "Eagle," was not meant personally or particularly but she stood for all good and useful Negro papers, as they were the true reflectors, the best timekeepers and the most unfalling advisers of the whole Negro race, and without the Negro Press, at this time and struggle, the entire Negro race would be helpless. But the same of humanity's nobility of the alert mind and the sincere heart of the "little big giantess," as we here by baptise Mrs. C. A. Bass, was compressed most overwhelmingly powerfully and intensely electrifying her hearers, when standing upon her high pedestals as a devotist religionist and at the same time, as an idealistic Socialist, as a grand and honest compromise between the two, she succeeded in sweeping the entire audience off their feet, as she exclaimed "In the ringing tones of the unyielding martyr of the doughty woman that cannot accept treason to her race: "If social equilibria means equal opportunity for my people, then I am for social equality." There is more true religion and, at the same time, more rational, constructive socialism in this remarkable and beautiful exclamation than in all the political parties in the country, and when Mrs. Bass uttered these sacred and soul-reining, Negro-freeing words, the whole audience knew that a genuine woman-leader stood before them, before white and black men, like the African queen truly, the woman leader who neger could betray, nor ever forget, nor underestimate the serious, and sacrificing condition of her afflicted and persecuted Negro brethren and Negro system. Mrs. Bass is, indeed, a fearless, caustic, an unbought and a Democratic, speaker—she carries herself, well poised and is never a charlatan. Her phototric is not the spread-Eagle type but it is practical and lady-like: an gunge, easily uncultated and easily understood, plain, digested, fleside words, with more than ordinary male or ordinary female force behind it. She is not belted in her make-up to hide things, and luckily and creditably for her, political parties were not mentioned, and, therefore, no political siumpareech was made by Mrs. Bass who is really too good and too big to make one, and very wise to leave this work to be done by lesser lights with smaller flames. Under certain conditions, Mrs. Bass could have made a National speaker, but unfortunately she toils so much that her tongue as too "located" and "home-directed," and finds not the suitable chance to travel away is a National way to spread her mood, common, around-seeded Negro philosophy, so badly needed, even more by the whites than the blacks. We must call Mrs. Charlotte A. Spear-Bass a mighty useful and "emfrad, wise woman-wise in the best sense of the word, wise at home, wise at her home, wise too, that she can do what she wants, and that she does what she wants. Her first for her lecture—what, better, thing could we call her, even if we tried! The lecture of Mrs. Bass, lasting 35 minutes, was preached by various material features of a "well-billed musical program. The Bill Brew Quartet, as usual, scored heavily, and had to render, respect on copy number. Niss Anita Miss Gritin is a pleasing young lyric, no piano, and, somehow, with proper chances, may scale the heights. The organ solo by Mrs. Lleven Harper Pattrowed was effective and artistic and the introductory remarks of At corner Wills O. Tyler, bringing forth the speaker of the evening were somewhat of old state and city history, very eloquent and informative. Dr. Proud also contributed fully to the success of the evening, as did the two complimentary woman speakers. Pocolewman George Robinson and John Garriss Ballock, as two Garriss Garriss Ballock, are the two Garriss Garriss Ballock.

Associated Loan Co. 1720 Central Avenue FRIDAY, MAY 6, 1927 HAWKS HANDS PROTESTS OFFICERS BRUTALITY Los Angeles, Calif. 843 Central Ave. May 2, 1927. Mr. James Davis, At a citizens mass meeting held at the independent Church of Christ, 18th and Paloma Streets, Sunday afternoon, May 1st, 1927. The undersigned committee was appointed to draft a letter protesting against and condemning the action of policemen Sheffield and Randolph in the cold blooded killing of Sam F. Faulkner last Sunday night, April 21th. We feel that the officers were unwarranted in shooting a man whom the investigation proved was unarmed and the brutal stomping of the mother's hand when she offered to raise the head of her dying son was a henious act and moreso coming from those who are supposed to uphold the law. We have constantly received complaints from good citizens of the conduct of these men and the high handed methods they employ culminating in this shooting. We, as citizens, have no desire to restrain officers in the performance of their just duties and the enforcement of the law, but we do condemn ruthless-killing of innocent citizens, the wanton destruction of property and acts of cruelty done by these two men. We are desirous that a thorough investigation be made both by the Police Department and the District Attorney's Office and the findings brought before the Police Commission and the Grand Jury. The resolutions also requested that a copy of this letter be sent to the Police Commission, the Mayor, City Council, the District Attorney's office and the press. 1 (Sgd.) Dr. H. C.

Officers Kelly and Davis are the officers who apprehended him and placed him in the Newton Bastile. (Note). Under the new law passed his session of the Legislature, a sentence of 5 years in San Quentin follows, gun toting. California, famous for oranges, sunshine, Sunkist maids and movie stars, is also famous for the fine wine it used to make. The "used to" also seems to be "is making." according to the condition officers Schunn and Thompson of the Newton St. Station found Frank Hamilton in at 8th and Burch Sts. Gloriously drunk, he was gazing lovingly at the last few drops off some California wine and saying to himself, "In all Ohio, no wine like this!" Hamilton is from the "Buckeye" state, but he was given residence at the Newton Street Station. AGAIN 'RED KIMONAS' AGAIN 'RED KIMONAS' Marie Brown was arrested at 1687 Essex street by Officers Brown and Bewley and Luviene Coloman at 1115 E. 12th Street by Officers Church and others for the eternal trade of the modern Magdalene. Johnson-Wants Jury Trial George Johnson, 1165 Essex Street, on trial for Wright Act and possession before Judge Turney, asked for a jury trial and his case was set to July 10th. New Version Of Faulk-Case According to Lieut. Sheffield, several of the principal witnesses of the shooting were not present among those testifying at the inquest. It is said that the two women, when questioned later by the investigators told them that they saw part of it as related by the officers, but that they escaped during the excitement. The father of the slain boy also admitted to them that he owned a gun, although he had previously denied owning one. The case is still under investigation with the outcome still in doubt.

Officer Insults Woman Prisoner Los Angeles, Cal., May 5.—Because the police officers who arrested her were very "insulting" Mrs. Ellen Labrio gained some lenency when she appeared before Municipal Judge Raymond I. Turney on a liquor charge. "I was both injured and insulted," declared the woman hotly. "How so?" inquired Judge Turney. "Why, these men," she said, point-to-Officers Sheffield and Randolph, two colored detectives, "just breaks into my house. Didn't knock or anything. I was asleep in a chair and I woke up to find them taking a bottle of whiskey out of each of my dress pockets. I didn't know how that whiskey come there, judge.

RICHA MUSIC AND ART Dy: HAROLD BRUCE FORSYTHE Whenever, during the course of a more or less social evening, the conversation diverves to music, and some maiden, messame or monsieur rolls his or her orbs toward heaven and refers to this or that composer as being "divinely inspired," to this or that composition as being "heavenly," it is with great difficulty that I smother the stentorian sport that essays exit through my nostrils. I know of not other public delusion that is, more ridiculous and widespread than this "Divinely inspired" business. Every composer worth his salt turns out his pieces seated comfortably at a desk. And they write carefully and painstakingly and often, as in the case of Beethoven, laboriously. Whatever inspiration that they possess is either cerebral, personal, or derived from experience: i. e.: an enamorata, John Barleycorn or some other man's compositions. Or from that abstract and wholly andivine thing called Genius. After all, it is an ill swindle that fills nobody's pockets. For if the censors and the public were intelligent in their judgment and valuation of music, dire things would happen. I sweat to think of it. "Jurgen and 'Sister Carrie" were suppressed because even a sensor can read, but much music that is anarchic, pathological, sensual and highly aphrodisiac is allowed to run rampant, because of the inlability of yokels to comprehend it. Many of Beethoven's symphonies are gigantic blasphemies, and with his Egmont overture, would probably be suppressed if we did not suffer from the "Divinely inspired" hallucination. Wagner's Tristan, his "Ring" and certainly his Parsifal are far worst than Jurgen! Huneke called Parsifal "an outrage against music, morals and religion!" Yet millions of ignorance maintains Richard was Divinely inspired. Sensuality fairly rants in the pieces of Chopin, Tschalkowky and Alpherka. Some of the works of Richard Strauss are not only idiotic, but downright obscene. Glance at Selom, glance at Elektra! Mencken swears that no woman who has heard Der Rosenkavalier is over the same again. Of course many composers have tried to write divine music. But in doing it, they exhibited a wide expanse of pantaloons for the placement of divers critical kicks. Humphardnick tried, in "Hansel and Gretal" and failed. As Van Vechten asserts, he depends more upon scenery than music for the Heavenly effect. Mascagni tried, in "Irish", Gluck in "Orfeo," and even Strauss made an attempt. But it seems that they did not highly succeed. But hear I voices of disgust? Am I unaware of Franke's "Les Sensuides"? Hankel's "Mesirian" Hankel's "Largo from Zurzen, and Haydn's Creation!" Here is excalled music you may argue. But I am not clued. Mike Schubert's marvelous Ava Music, an unquestionable master. ```markdown ``` following observation: I solicit a thorough investigation on the part of anybody who doubts the honesty, and integrity on my part in offering these lands to the public.

MAXEY, Contractor. RICHARD H. WADE, Manager. and beautiful, but their very subjectivity, their very drama, their very freedom, their very HUMANITY eradicates any suspicion of divinity in them. They are no more divine than the men who wrote them. Fam convinced that the only music that could even remotely be called Heavenly is that of the old Mideval masters. To hear of their choruses or masses is to walk out of the clear sunlight into the mysterious, vague, incense laden, cloistered* walls of a Cathedral, it is inhuman music, it is objective music, it is *ingratifying* music. But that doesn't weaken my argument, since the maidens, meadmen and gentlemen I am lambasting have probably never heard of Lassus, and couldn't tell a chorus by Palestrine from Arnold Schoenberg's Claire de Lune. Ah! sad is the tale, and I shed many crocodile tears in telling it. I know too, that in relating it I shall probably be condemned as a deprived and impious heretic. But, nevertheless, it is a fact that composers have had greater success in depicting satanic scenes than divine ones, even as we have seen that they have a penchant for the aphrodiasiac. Therefore I hereby advance the hypothesis that they are inspired not by God, but by the Devil. The lives of most of them certainly highly support my theory, let it be understood right here! They were certainly immoral fellows, as we measure morality! According to our existent beliefs, every great genius who ever lived, with very few exceptions, is now feeling the licking tongues of flame, and Mencken, Cabell, Toomer, Strauss, et all! it is only a matter of time before Old Nick has them on his pitchfork. Hence I think I am logical. Witness, doubters, Schubert's "Erking" and his "Gruppe am Tartarus." The Ave Marie is banal beside them. Witness the devilish "Faust" of Gounod and the "Mephistophele" of Boito! What a contrast to the banal Ave Marie melody Charlie grafted on poor Bach! Witness Saint-Saen's Dance Macabre, wherein Death and the Devil fairly romp! Witness Scriabine's poem "Satanique!" Witness the Chop in Scherba that "sounds as if we were entering the very gates of hell!" Witness any of the devilish music of the Neo-Russians! Witness any of the devilish music of Dvorka's New World Symphony! Witness the zardonic, colossal scherzo from Beethoven's Eroica! That is "like two giants boxing clamily, to a crazy piping by an orchestra of dwarfs, while the devil looks on!" Witness Paganihal! Witness Richard Strauss' Zarathustra! Witness the terrible, shrieking gret, the terrific and unholy despair in the Corte Punebre of Ernst Block! Witness Pokofilä's "Sept. sept. Sept." And friend, if you are not overwhelmed witness the "Devil's Trill" sentence of Tartini. As we all know, Tartini totally spoore that the Ole Bay, played the plow to him one night. He wonderful war the devil's addling, designed Tartini, that no human could approach it. The devil, according to Tartini, is the universe's -champion addler.

It is not known at this writing what car Charley will drive being offered several, one by the Coca Cola people, but he says, he is determined to win and bring the bacon home.

The picture originally was to be made by First National but due to a disagreement was not. M. Almost every afternoon Ross Snyder Playground is the scene of energetic practice by the girls of the Eastside Baseball team. These girls really have their game at heart and are planning on playing a group of white girls, a spectacular game, at an early date. The members of the Girl Reserve Basketbill team are having some very strenuous workouts since their first defeat by the Pasadena G. R's. Their coach, Vernon Fulcher, says that the next group of girls who play his team will not find the members such "easy pickings." These girls have their second game with the Pasadena girls Saturday evening. May 18 at 8 o'clock. This game is to be held on the basketball court of the T. W. C. A. in Pasadena. The local G. Rn. met with a 23-3 defeat at their first game with the Pasadena girls. But it seems as if the score will be reversed at the game Saturday night. Be sure and come out to support these girls. A few cheers from their friends will urge them on to victory. BY: JOHNNY CONDE Sports Scribe Baseball every day at W:jrge Field. The Los Angeles fans will see the great Walter Malles this week. Malles is the biggest drawing card on the Coast. He will pack the field all week. Malles beat Oakland last week 3 to 1. Earl King is one of Frisco's best pitchers. He will show Hollywood some stuff this week. Earl is a good butter, one of the best hitting pitchers in the League. The Los Angeles fans will see Left O'Doul the league's leading hitter, the boy that hit in 19 straight ball games; and how that boy O'Doul can run bases—he goes to first like a deer. Bob Davies is going to have a newsboys contest for Kid Romer. Abe Attle and Handson McEveny. Red Butler says if they got into the contest Handson McEveny wouldn't have a chance. All the boys say Butler is a cinch. Funny loking fellows like Romers are taking milk baths to make them good-looking. Red Butler says all he has to do is to drive down Broadway and he wins. Red was a good-looking felow till he hit the Yellow Cnb. Watch for the newsboys' big ball game. Handsome Jim Austin will pitch the first ball and that will be all. Frank Cardellar, big man from Livermore, would like to take George Godfrey to Livermore to chase some deers he would get in shape. Tex Rickard sent him a wire to bring his white hope East. Cardellar has a big white hope, 222 pounds. Johnnis Ratto, 222 big strong fellow thinks he can beat Sharkey. Ratto is a big, clever fellow, he throws bottles around all day to get his arms strong. "Watts Monarchs" Played to Packed Park at San Diego Though receiving the news too late for details, word has come through the San Deego dallies that Jib Hunt's great made-over team, formerly called "Watta Monarchs," played in San Diego last Sunday and gave the Jacob's. Club there the toughest "May Day," they ever experienced. This team prides itself on the fact of never having lost to a Negro team, but with Poote's pitching, and the Giant's making three hits and two runs in the first chapter Hunt's boys got away to a good start, that they only lost in the last innings. Lewis featured with a 3-base hit, Adams a double and 2 singles. San Diego had 8 scores at the end, to the Giants' 7, but admit they were lucky. The 2nd game of the 3 game series will be played, Sunday, May 6th. The home games, the first of which will be announced later, will be played with new suits and other equipment at the home grounds at 116th St. on the red car line. Doc Snell to Mix Up Something For Grimes At Olympic, Tuesday According to matchmaker Wad Wadhama, Doc Snell of Washington is going to mix up some stuff called sleeping powders. He intends to administer it in a sudden dose to a certain unwilling patient namd Billy Grimes; said treatment to take place at Olympic Auditorium on the evening of Tuesday, May 10th. Now, this same Billy may turn the tables and adulterer this same dose to Doc himself and he has been known to do such things. Skiff Skimmers Derby The channel boat race by rowers will take place on June 19th from Cata- lina 21a island to the mainland. As before stated the Eagle will enter Upton's Ponder, the swim hero, also a "dark horse" rower who will equal a motor boat. A Who may come from East to appear on Dick Donald's Wrigley Field Show May 16th NEW COMETS BREAKING INTO THE PUGILISTIC SKY—KINNEY FLINT AND TOMES The very near future is going to see three new boys cause quite a splatter among the stars that are now occupying the space in the realm of fictious. These are Charley Flint, 120; Grover Cleveland Tomes, 18; and Leroy Kinney, 195. These boys are being groomed and carefully trained by one of the best known and most experienced trainers in the game, "Old Folks" Willamere. He has been bringing them along carefully as only he knows how until he is just about ready to let them put some of the stuff into effect that they have shown in training. The star of the three at present is Kinney, the heavyweight. This boy is fast and strong as a giant, shows plenty cleverness already and a lot of speed. Tight places in some of the realistic workout at the Main St. gym, have shown that he is game, cool under fire and possessing a good head. Several matches have been lined up for him. Tomes has fought twice professionally, lost the one and drew and for him and Flim. some good matches are also being worked up. "Oughta Seen That Fish That Got Away!" With the opening of the trout season all the real disciples of lank are out to catch their limit. Dr. Albert Baumann went off last week-end to add more laurels to his fame as an angler. We haven't learned what he brought back. Dr. Harris is another famous fisherman but he likes the deep-sea delicacies best. Fishing is one of Redondo now. Sid Socklyn the gunner boxer who sacked Huddles at Hollywood harder than he has been sacked since out on the Coast was now at Murraya Springs with his manager Lon Dillon and stabmates Joey Abrahamson and Charley Hill. Sid put up a good, game fight and against the greatest walterweight in the game did well. Art Hudkins' New Protege A Second Ace Art Hudkins seems to have discovered a second Ace in Martin Dodds the aggressive boy who really earned the decision over Benny Miller at the Olympic, Tuesday night. He is a southpaw and lags in facing his opponent at the time. He ought to be way up. A or some accidental "sensation" who has made a couple of "lucky" wins. We grin, bow low and say "howdy." He gives us the icy stare, looks through us and barely speaks. When along comes some real fighter, like Ace Hudkins, champion Bud Taylor, champion Mandell, champion Mushy Callahan, Godfrey or Tiger Flowers and he slaps us on the back, pokes out his mitt and says "glind to see you old top," etc. The above comparison goes, for a lot of would-be managers too, but we always notice, the more a guy has or the more he knows the less he tries to show it. Enough discussing bone-heads though. Gee, what a hole in the Western boxing game with a bunch of the best fighters gone East. Clinch-sess nights will soon get in demand with a few more Zorilla-Sarmiento bouts or Tendler-Hudkins toe-to toe battling. Really I would love to switch to the fans on how some of our boys mistreat themselfs out of the ring; and expect to win fists too. Wouldn't Pyle make a great promoter? Would you like to say something through our column—cause us! All right you're welcome, shoot it right in any time, to Yours Truly. Along Fisticuffs Row YOUNG HARRY WILLS went to San Diego, scene of his many victories for a short visit. JOE ANDERSON has opened a gym at his home town Louisville. Kv BILLY EVANS and YOUNG JACK THOMPSON spent a week in Elsinore. Jack claims to be a great swimmer. We shall challenge him. LONG TOM HAWKINS sings "Where shall I go, when I go, if I go, will I find Mack House waiting, waiting to fight?" YOUNG FORD was not quite seasoned enough for the ring vet, Tony Fuente, hence the quick loss. WINT ROSS has been flooded with offers for Eastern fights since his Gulf Typhoon beat Sarmiento. They want Amador also. SAILOR LARRY says he was worried about the Faulkner murder and was not right for the fight with Ernie Owen. LESTER JOINTS, "Gentleman Jenkins," Whitey Black, Tiger Robinson and the rest of the family are doing well, thank you. YOUNG STRIBBLING who fought Longham is training his young brother whom Walk Miller and Pa Stribbling have named "Baby Stribbling." He is a promising kid. WILLIE HENRY'S great manager, Pat Elsey is always on the job. Always wires to the Eagle after Henry or Johnny Lewis fight. RALPH VOLKE leaves for the East shortly. He has trained Mushy Calhann, Bud Taylor, Jimmy Finley and other good fighters. Expeats to be in Huddins corner at the Sergt. Baker fight. ALFONSO GONZALES vs. Baby Gans for that $1000 bet. Clyde is holding the Huddins check, ready to plank it down, as soon as the other side is ready.
