B. P. O. E. OF W., AT 160TH ARMORY, 700 EXPOSITION BONLEVARD THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 2, 1927 PACIFIC COAST'S VERY BEST --- BOXING - ENTERTAINING - AND DANCING Mr. James E. Davis, Chief of Police of Los Angeles City, Central Police Station, Los Angeles, California. My dear Chief:— I received your letter of the 14th of May, 1927, in regard to the conduct of Officers Sheffield and Randolph. I am replying thereto in order that there be no misunderstanding, either as to my attitude personally, or as to that of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. I want to assure you at the outset, that we highly appreciate the very grave and vexatious responsibilities that rest upon you as Chief of Police in so large a city. We are in hearty sympathy with every movement that deals without fear, or favor, or partiality, of any sort with the building up of a more effective police program, and we have confidence in you personally, and believe that once you understand the facts about which we have such grievous reason to complain, that your program for law enforcement will be strengthened and not at all obstructed or hindered. ```markdown ``` First, a word about the Colored people generally: For the past 30 years or longer in Los Angeles, there have been Colored men in the Police Department. These men have made many arrests, and have been working in all departments of the force, and have been almost entirely assigned to duty among their own people. The number is probably row more than 60, we are told, and yet in all this long time, the records of your department will not reveal any hostility on the part of Colored people toward Police officers, either white or black, or any concerted or united complaint and demand for their removal, that at all approaches or is to be considered anything like the tremendous wave of indignation the Colored people now have, and feel toward Sheffield and Randolph. There must be a reason for this, and we believe there is a reason for it in fact we know there is. We state this reason to be that they have brutally beaten members of our group needlessly in making arrests, and that they became so intoxicated with the habit of breaking into people's houses and bulldozing and terrifying them, that they finally culminated their ruthless conduct in the needless murder of San Faulkner. The attention of the Police Department has been called in complaints made by citizens, both in writing and by appearing at the Chief's office, and at the trial board—to the alleged beating of a woman last Spring; to the breaking in and searching of a sick woman's house, and the putting of the woman on the floor while they searched under the bed at a time she was in such a low physical condition, that she died a few days after; to the fact, no arrest was made whatever, she being guilty of no offense; to similar treatment afforded another woman on East Adams Street, who died a few days thereafter, and to countless, (so-called raids), in which houses were literally wrecked, and doors and windows broken, when they could have obtained admission by knocking, and that in many of these cases, no arrests were made at all, and that in none of them, did they carry search warrants, or proceed in anything like an orderly manner. We want to discuss with you, the 3,038 arrests that you point out in your letter, these man made in the first four months of this year. It is unfortunate you did not state what the complaints were, and while we do not have access to your records, we were reliably informed that probably a third of these arrests were of people who were charged with having visited "lottery joints." About two doz Mrs. Nick Chiles The Hon. Nigeliamus Chiles, beloved race fighter and dynamic man in journalism, reached town on last Saturday, a few days ahead of his schedule. He is accompanied by his charming and very capable helpmate in the person of Mrs. Henrietta Chiles and together they are the house guests of Mrs. Chiles' daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Patterson, 806% East 28th street. Nick Chiles, whose name is a household word throughout the country, has many friends and admirers on the Pacific Coast and particularly is this son Los Angeles. Consequently he has been wined and dined ever since his irrival. Aside from this he has been kept busy meeting and shaking hands with his many hundreds or friends. On last Sabbath, he attended the services at the Second Baptist Church where he was presented and spoke to the congregation at both morning and evening service. of these lottery place are maintained by Chinamen in the Colored district and it is the habit of the police to "raid" these places about once a month. From 10 to 50 frequenters or players are caught in these "raids" and taken to jail, and to Court, where fine not exceeding $25.00 is assessed. These fines are paid always by the Chinamen who own the places, and who themselves pay a fine of $50.00 to $100.00, and immediately go back to their lotteries and open up the same day and proceed to "de business at the same old stand" for another 30 days, and until the next "raid". Of course just so far as the figures are concerned, this sort of thing is a black mark against the Colored people arrested, which they hardly deserve. The source of this evil is the permitting of these Chinese lotteries to run in the Colored district, or anywhere else, for that matter, and the most peculiar thing about it is, that in no instance that we have heard of have Sheffield and Randolph ever broken a door in raising one of these Chinese lottery joints. The doors are always broken as private residences without warning and without having met with resistance. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. On Thursday evening, a big reception was given in the honor of both Mr. and Mrs. Calles, by Mrs. Stella Turner, Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Patterson and Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Bass at Eagle Hall at which hundreds paid their respects. A unique program was rendered and a most enjoyable evening, was had. Throughout the week other festivities were given which kept the fighting editor very much engaged during the period of his visit, here. Mr. Calles will speak at the morning services of Independent Church on next Sunday. He will leave during the following week for Kansas. Before returning, however, he will make a visit to San Diego, where friends have arranged quite a reception in his honor. YOU CAN NEVER TELL Mr. W. Brown, watchman at the Rosebud Theatre, who was tried by aury of his peers on last Wednesday, was acquitted of the charge of murder by the jury. Particulars in our next game. SONG RECITAL Minnie M.

The Independent 'hurch in the place and Tuesday, May 21st the time.' Mr. Huntington leaves three daughters, Mrs. Elizabeth H. Mecalf or Garland, Miss Maries Huntington of San Francisco, and Mrs. Clara H. Pekins, at present in Rome. He is also survived by a sister, Mrs. Caroline H. Holladay of Pesadena. City Mourns Leader Immediately after receiving news of the death of Mr. Huntington, Mayor Cryer ordered that the flag over the city hall be lowered to half mast as a sign of the city's grief and respect for the dead capitalist. Among the works of the old masters which Mr. Huntington purchased and which are at his San Marino mansion, are 9 Reynolds, 10 Gateboroughs and 11 Rompays. His library included a priceless Gutenberg Bible, a first quarto of Shakespeare's Hamlet, and other volumes or untold value. It was generally conceded to be the most valuable private collection in the world. Mr. Huntington, who was a nephew of the late Collis P. Huntington, pioneer in transcontinental railroad building, was in a critical condition, following his operation two weeks ago. He rallied, however, and it was reported that he was on the way to recovery. Dispatches early today stated that he had suffered a relapse and death came a few hours later. Treasures for Public The Huntington library and art collection was founded in 1919, when Mr. Huntington donated them to "the people of the world, for educational purposes, and for historical research." The value of the library is inestimable in dollars and cents. Many million dollars were spent in its collection. Mr. Huntington specialized in the collection of first editions, and rare copies of books by English and American authors. In the library is one of the most complete collections in existence or autographed books by famous authors, signed manuscripts of noted books, and documents relating to historical episodes that are expected to throw new light on the historical events in the development of the English and American civilizations. LOOK WHO'S IN TOWN Chick Sings, 26 years old, has been boxing 12 years. In that time, he has not all the leading bantams and feathers in the world. Although never a title holder, he was named by Tex Rickard to be the best boy in the world from 118 to 126 pounds. He has defeated Babe Herman, Red Chapman, Abe Attel Goldstein, Joey Sanger, Benny Bass, Sammy Fuller, Johnny Curten, Pete Sarmiento, Dixie A Hood and many others. He is one of the cleverest boxers in the world and well able to carry on for such great colored fighters as George Dixon, Joe Gans, Peter Jackson, Sam Langord and Joe Woolcott. He makes his first visit to California on this trip and expects to stay for a good long visit. He was met at the rain by a large delegation of colored friends and escorted by motorcycle officers to Central Avenue District. He was accompanied on this trip by Billy Henderson, manager of Eddle Sherlin of Boston and Manny Arutta, his trainer. He will meet Bud Taylor of Chicago to the Olympic Club next Tuesday night and box the ten-round feature bout. Suggs is a very clean-living boxer who has eaved and invested his money and is a great credit to his race. Death Penalty to Youth Who Escaped Arkansas Lynchers Little Rock, Ark., May 21—Lonnie Dixon, who barely been lynched here a few weeks ago, was sentenced Thursday night to die in the electric chair on June 24, for the murder of Floella McDonald, a 12-year-old white girl, April 12. Ten minutes was the time required for the jury to reach a verdict. Attorneys to defend the 17-year-old youth, who Wednesday entered a plea of "not guilty" were selected a day before the trial "by lot." This method of selection was necessary due to the fact that every lawyer appointed by the court found pressing business elsewhere. Names or all local attorneys, except Sclipo A. Jones, J. A. and William Booker, and other Negro attorneys, were placed in a hat and shuffled. Two skirts were drawn and it fell the lot of E. B. Johnson and J. F. Willis to defend Dixon. Derfense Not Determined Wednesday Night Although the trial was to be held Thursday, the attorneys for the defense signified Wednesday night that they had not yet mapped out a defense for their client. "We are unprepared to make a statement," declared Johnson, Wednesday night, "because we have not even had time to see a copy of the indictment. We were chosen fairly for the task and, of course, it is our duty to do the best we can for the Negro." Dixon was tried before Judge Aner McGee and when the jury returned the verdict of guilty and the sentence passed upon him, he expressed no surprise, even waiving the two days' grace customary before sentencing under the Arkansas law.

In spite of the fact that more Negroes, as you readily see by these statistics, hold state positions than in other states, Springfield in the way of "Jim Crow" treatment is like unto any Texas city. We very diligently inquired into the whys and wherefore such should be the case and were told by old settlers that prior to the 1915 riot Negroes were granted equal accommodation in public places. Just because one Negro committed a crime in Springfield that white men commit every day, everywhere, the narrow-minded whites, who are always looking for some excuse to practice their unwritten laws of prejudice and discrimination are directing every effort to make living conditions for the Negro in the city where Abraham Lincoln's spirit of freedom still lingers as mean as possible. The Negroes live mostly in a section of the city where there are no sewers; they are not admitted in a safe, or hotel, and not even allowed to visit the cheapest movie house unless they are willing to be relegated to a Jim Crow corner. In the section of the city where Negroes live also during the rainy season mud and slush invest the streets and yards to such an extent that passage is almost impossible, and yet Springfield is the home of Attorney Turner, the Duncans, the Wares, the Slaughters and some others of our best citizens. After a most pleasant two-days stay in Springfield on Tuesday afternoon March 1st, we set sail for our next stop which was St. Louis, Mo. Mrs. Lillian J. Craw, wife of Rev.

CAPITAL TALKS in every undertaking of any consequence. The paper have been full during the past week of the feat performed by (Lucky) Charles Lindbergh crossing the Atlantic in his airplane at an average speed of 107 miles per hour, having successfully reached his goal through sheer determination, and courage, he is acclaimed by kings and queens and the entire populace of Europe and America. The President of France has already planned the cross of the Legion of Honor upon his breast, other medals will follow and by the time he reaches America he will resemble a crossword puzzle. Maybe our President might have had room on Mr. Lindbergh's hat in the Flying Cross. Mr. Lindbergh is the man we take our hats off to him BUT WHAT ABOUT ACE FOREMAN? Do think that we have played fair with him? Our only colored aviator has every kind of qualification as a man who knows not the word fear. A few months back he undertook to by from Los Angeles to New York in rather severe weather. He had hit a shell of a plane which the average white aviator would not think of risking his life in, and practically no financial backing at all. Had it not been for the efforts put forth by the California Eagle he would not have been able to even make a start. His shell of a plane broke down near Salt Lake and he was held for two weeks before he could make another start. He flew his plane at a terrific rate of race as far as Kansas City, where his funds gave out and he was forced to give exhibition flights in order to obtain money enough to continue. This brave young man was handicapped by lack of only a few of our own race had with in him some even laughed at his efforts, and false stories about his flight. It is pity and a shame to think that we have fallen so low as to try to kill the ambitions of a brave young man like Ace Foreman. If Ace Foreman had been financed by a few of our wealthy colored people who could well afford it, a different story would be told today. If he was brave enough to risk his life in a shell of a plane crossing the mountains between here and New York, do you not think, he would be brave enough to risk his life in an attempt to cross the Atlantic in one of the finest type of planes money could buy. Wake Up! We too have a Charles Lindbergh in Ace Foreman. It took about twenty thousand dollars to back Charles Lindbergh. Behold the results to his race. Suppose it had been Ace Foreman, France who is exceptionally friendly to the Negro, would have been only too glad to bestow upon him the same honors and his fear could not be by America. Colored men and women of all races would hardly miss twenty thousand dollars in a venture of this kind and the good could do for the race could not be outstripped by millions of dollars. We hope to some day see our brave aviator Ace Foreman, properly financed. MAY TWENTY-SECOND OPENED THE RUSH That much talked or day the twenty-second has come and gone and it will be remembered for a long time by the porters of this district as a day of rush, rush, rush, every train leaving out of here was loaded to the roof, and the porters who have been Idle for the past two weeks were put to work in a way that they will not forget very soon. Many headed for Chicago and some going as far as New York City, from now on this district will have plenty of work for its porters along with the summer tourist rush will come the different specials and from all indications Los Angeles porters end waiters will have a prosperous season before the winter sets in. Lot's make hay while the sun shines. SUPT. C. A. ROTH TAKES CHARGE OF BOSTON SOUTHERN Mr. C. A. Roth former Superintendent of San Francisco was on route to Boston last week where he will be the superintendent of Boston South. Mr. Roth will be on a joint section of The Pullman Company, the Pacific Coast having twice been connected with the Los Angeles district, Mr. Snoody of Miami, Fla., will succeed Mr. Roth at San Francisco. Prayers to the gods, made through decades by tourists who have mumbled and fumbled Pullman coach gamers, have at last been heard. Travellers may now board trains without fear that they have to be immigrants from Poland or Greece in order to pronounce the name of their coach William Wycauskwit, that music person who names Pullman coach lifes, a bottle of pop on high, and as he brought it down with a cushion on the side of the bright shining car. He said, I christened shee, not Coscosaon or Pletherines, nor yet Whikeyleovitch G—but just plain John Smith, Pullman John Smith is now hitched to the Overland Limited, 63-hour Southern Pacific train. This is the second Pullman car to be named in this manner. The first being car Gosor J. Daniels named after a Pullman poster who lost his life in the line of duty saving passengers during a wreck.

MORE ABOUT THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC The Southern Pacific had its origin in the Central Pacific Railroad Company which in 1863 started construction of a line from Sacramento to the East. It met the Union Pacific building West, at Promontory Point, Utah in 1869, forming the first transcontinental railroad line. This construction work over the Sierra Nevada Mountains from Sacramento was accidental, obstacles, financial as well as physical. Many engineers said that the project was hopeless. In those pioneer days the facilities for railroad building at hand today had not been invented. Even dynasty was unknown. Yet the line was completed over the mountains More will be this next week. SPECIAL LEAVES SAN DIEGO FOR CHICAGO The writer looked on with tears in his eyes last Sunday as a special train took on their cargo of humanity for the windy city. Why the tears asked a bystander? Have you someone on the train you do not wish to see leave? And I answered, Yes! I am weeping because my wife is the maid on the train and her possibilities for giving a marcel and a manicure look very slim, and I am weeping because I happened to be acquainted with the following crack dining car crew: Chefs, Geo. White, 2nd Millon Reed, 3rd Sylvester Franklin, and 4th Robert Baler. Watters: Jessie Simpson B. Johnson, H. Young, Jockey Brooks, and J. Taylor.

It is indeed a wonder that so few accidents happen, that such a small percentage of persons are injured or killed, likewise that traffic moves so rapidly toward its point of destination. Attribute the cause for such a showing to, what one may you cannot lose sight of the fact that the traffic division or the L. A. Police Ept. is a big factor in this successful showing Los Angeles is making. This traffic division comprises some well-trained officers whose duty it is to do nothing but direct traffic. As commendable as conditions seem there is considerable room for improvement and the public can do much to assist in the improvements. There are many minor infractions of the law that the average auto driver is never prepared to meet when appended by the officer. You should at all times have your operator's license. The registration card should be in its proper place in the car where it is visible. Properly adjusted brakes and properly focused headlights are two more essential things in making the thoroughfare safe. Remember, left hand turns are only permissible when you are nearest to the center of the street. Don't forget and run by or try to ease by a street car about to stop, it's easy to main or kill some. Don't park within, 10 feet of a fire plug. Don't get out and leave your motor running. See that your license plates are not only in their proper place, but clear and visible. At all times look out for school children. The city has constructed underground passageways at most school crossings but they are in many instances still unprotected. PEDESTRIANS Pedestrians must too obey such laws as are made for their own protection. Don't cross in the middle of the street, remember, if you do so, it's at your own risk and if you are injured or killed you have no redress. In crossing where there are traffic signals or officers stationed do so at the proper time. Tagging traffic violators is the last thing that a traffic officer wishes to do and if the general public would just use their heads and think in many instances the issuing of a tag could be avoided. These view and suggestions are given in all sincereness and with the hope that they may create a better relationship between the officer whose duty it is to stand on the box and direct traffic in the interest of public safety and the public that is brought into contact with traffic in the daily performance of their vocations. Try and do your part in assisting each other to assist the officer and Los Angeles thoroughfares will be safer, accidents will be greatly reduced, you'll reach your destination sooner in safety and traffic conditions in general will be greatly improved. How to Keep Grime Off Your Hands When necessity forces the motorist to make emergency repairs on the road, a preventative measure to keep grime and dirt from the hands is as follows: The following are a few suggestions of the National Automobile Club for those who wonder why they have an excessive gasoline consumption on their cars: Remember to use the choker sparingly. Remember that when your car is standing and you are talking to a friend if the motor is running the gasoline is still being used. Have your carburetor adjusted periodically as with the wear of your motor, conditions of carburation change. Take Your Camera Along on Your Trip Take your camera along with you on your trip. This season of the year is ideal for the motorist who has a hobby for snapshots, according to the National Automobile Club. Light conditions are excellent for the amateur photographer and he has a greater opportunity for successful attempts with film or plate during the early spring than in any other season of the year. At this time the light is not as brilliant, cloud effects are more easily secured and the clarity of the atmosphere helps him to secure much of the beauty which lies in the panorama unfolded before him. A good piece of advice to the amateur photographer is given by an old photographer who said, "it isn't in the camera but in the way you use it." A good picture may be secured with a cigar box provided it is handled in the proper fashion. Do not blame your camera for lack of success in picture taking. Study the possibilities or light and shade and the important elements of which the picture is composed. These are more important even than matters of exposure and too often the amateur photograph Keep Your Motor Car Under Control One or the motor vehicle regulations too often ignored by the average motorist is that an automobile must be under control at all times. The motor car must always be operated with due regard to the rights of others. A pedestrian has a right to the use of public streets and highways just as well as a motorist and the latter must use reasonable care to avoid injuring the pedestrian. The pedestrian, however, must exercise reasonable care to prevent being injured, which care must be in proportion to the danger in each particular case. The operator of a motor vehicle must keep a careful watch for pedestrians and other vehicles and at the first appearance of danger must take steps to prevent accident. The speed of a motor vehicle must always be within such bounds as will and crossings, the vehicle must be slowed down and in such control that it may be stopped immediately when necessary. A small amount of cup grease such as is used in the fabrication of the car, if applied well, will cording to L. G. Evans of the Service Department of the National Automo- hile Club, prevent the entrance into the pores of this dirt. The grease is teasily removed with soap and water. Dr. Smith has again bloomed out in a new car. This time it's a Whippet. The Williams, Mr. Van and Mrs. Fannie, contemplate an auto trip back home to Congo, Africa; this summer so we hear, but refuse to believe. The Chamber of Commerce is to be host to a delegation of colored citizens on a trip to Owensmouth this Friday. About 12 machines will make up the party. Some fifteen automobiles comprising all makes from Fords to Lincoln pointed their nose South last Sunday and headed for San Diego. They returned late Sunday evening. Fred Wallace piloted the crowd. Mr. and Mrs. Nick Chiles of Topeka, Kans., are in our midst. The automobile and Western climate have nearly succeeded in making permanent citizens of them. But what would Kansas do? Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Clarke and daughter of Pasadena, Studebaker into town last Wednesday and were wont to leave after having a pleasant ew hours amongst friends. E. A. Hawkins and a party of friends left for San Francisco, Friday to be gone over Memorial Day. They took a Studebaker and tow rope. E. E. Andarsonia the landscape artist had to have a new top put on his Lincoln Jr., to keep from getting sunburned. John Hollins, we're glad to see, has been forced to add another car to his business. Some husler. Herman Hill, Jr., and his renovating Ford failed to pass the home sentinal who goes off duty at 12 mid-night. The result he had to use a step-ladder to get in bed last Sunday morning at 2 A.M. Bob Davis, expressman, is back in own to stay. Bob bld his local friends good-bye and tote out for a dear old St. Louis. En route and on arrival Bob saw the wicked Mississippi creating such havoc that on arrival he took he next train back. Didn't even visit elatives or friends. L. A. for me, he says. Mrs. Grace Winslow is again enjoying the atmosphere of the city from the driver's seat or her Hupmobile, after a brief illness. If a certain Mr. Gross of Des Moines, owa, who has a family, owns a sedan automobile, and at present enjoys good health knows what's best, he'll keep away from a pedestrian contest that has its starting point on 49th St. Look out for the big week-end Monday is a holiday. Don't get jammed in the Monday vacation crowd. Wood Wilson, fraternal man, club man, political champion of Negro causes, barely escaped a serious mishap when an unknown ran into him, tore off his front bumper and gave him a shake-up as well as the score of his life. Dr. Liddell's Dodge was roughly handled last Monday when a big truck struck it a foul blow in the rear as he was turning a corner to visit a patient. Fortunately the damage was slight. Hitting Below the Belt Margals of Queensbury rules her beating, batting, tripping, holding, ate, but there is no intrusion of the rules considered as designt as batting below the belt line either intentionally or accidentally. In the grittiest world, when done with all intents and purposes, it is considered a foul and the guilty party, disqualified by the referee. According to an article appearing in the Illustrated Daily News under date of May 11, a great ring battle is on with the L. A. Chief of Police on the one side, and the judges, Federal state, county, and citizens of the Black Belt on the other. Now the people constitute the referee. The writer wants to hear from this referee. Did Chief Davis hit below the belt in the first and second rounds? To insure a just decision, the writer reprints from the Daily News the first and second round in the form of verbal blows delivered from the abuser by Chief Davis. Now Mr. and Mrs. Referee, we again ask the question, Did Davis hit low? Write, your answer and the California Judge will give space to the same. It MUST NOT EXCEED 100 words.

NATURAL GAS, as its name implies, is that fuel by the action of Nature under the ground. It is usually found in oil sands, and in Southern Gauges produced in connection with oil well operations. Natural gas has these three chief advantages over natural gas: it, it has greater heating value, usually contained in 1000 heat units per cubic foot, as compared to average of 400 to 550 heat units in manufactured gas. and, it is more nearly 100% combustible than natural gas, because of smaller content of non-combustible acts. and, in the unburned state it is non-poisonous. In natural gas we are serving comes chiefly from Ventura Counties, with a smaller amount from Los Angeles. In natural gas has an average of about 1100 heat units per cubic foot—or about 30% greater heating value than oil and natural gas we served formerly. Alliance adjustments are necessary to get the best from this higher quality gas. We have a force of special adjusters working in a large visit to every consumer on our gas system, as far as possible, their appliances are correct. NATURAL GAS, as its name implies, is that formed by the action of Nature under the ground. It is usually found in oil sands, and in Southern California is produced in connection with oil well operations. Natural gas has these three chief advantages over manufactured gas: First, it has greater heating value, usually containing in excess of 1000 heat units per cubic foot, as compared with an average of 400 to 550 heat units in manufactured gas. Second, it is more nearly 100% combustible than manufactured gas, because of smaller content of non-combustible products. Third, in the unburned state it is non-poisonous. The natural gas we are serving comes chiefly from Kern and Ventura Counties, with a smaller amount from fields nearer home. Long and expensive pipe lines are required to bring this gas to Los Angeles. This natural gas has an average of about 1100 heat units per cubic foot-or about 30% greater heating value than the mixed oil and natural gas we served formerly. Appliance adjustments are necessary to get the best service from this higher quality gas. We have a force of special adjusters working in a house-to-house visit to every consumer on our gas system, to see that, as far as possible, their appliances are correctly adjusted. If your gas range was built with a "grid" or open top, it is safe and unsafe to equip it with so-called "solid tops" "gas squares" or "gas conservers." Adjust your burners if they need adjustment, but beware of devices sold by persons of doubtful reliability. A range manufactured with a solid top, however, is a different matter; it was designed for such operation.

Mr. Benahimol, president of the Night School Teachers' Association and Director of Night School Work, expressed his keen interest in the functioning or such a home-school in cooperation with classes for adults whose children might be reached and helped through such a home-school. Mr. Weatherall, Superintendent of Pacific Home for Boys, indicated the need for such home-school to care for a large number of children who appalled to their organization and for whom there were not places in their home and on whose behalf they were not organized in particular. Mr. Henderson of the Y. M. C. A. gave his hearty support in the movement and felt that it would be a nature of next step by public schools in all day care of children preventing embarrassment to parents and children by public court records and at the same time provide them with capital supervision in an environment uncharred with stories of delicacy in the processes of education. Mr. Bargwell seeks an assistant in Sociology of Manual Arts High School, setting forth his interest in the furtherance of such a plan by bettering such teacher and student information as would assure harm-free and successful operation.

Mr. McBride of the Los Angeles Times, spoke as a friend of a project which encourages such child welfare processes as would develop children along such similar lines as he had seen accomplished through the George Junior Republic. There were the four members of the California Association of Supervisors of Attendance who expressed their heavy support of the proposed twenty-four hour home-school project as presented to the conference—each using concrete cases where such a school would aid materially in solving problems that had come under their observation. The committee from the County Public Welfare Commission assured the group that such a home-school plan would meet with every announcement by their commission and their willingness to actively interest themselves in such a plan. A vote of thanks was extended to the workmen of the Child Welfare Department for having accomplished so much in behalf of children and for this timely conference and commendable plan. There was also the expansion of the hope that the household soon be a translation in the right manner of the child welfare processes so thoroughly incorporated into the program of this Department.

No sooner arrived at booking desk than George turned on his human victoria and the office sounded like a broadcasting station. To the officers asking the necessary questions he snapped out, "Yes, that's my name. George Jones, George Jones, that's my name." "Been drinking?" "I should say not, say can't you see I ain't drunk? Those people are crazy, I went in there with o colored lady friend o eat. Of course, I never saw the lady before in my life, met her on the street you know. Asked her to a feed you know. They said, sorry but we can't serve you." "Wait a minute," said the sergeant, "Why didn't you quietly leave them and make proper complaint instead of loud talking and abuse?" "Wasn't loud talking," yelled George at the officer, "I biah-blah-you know-blah-blah-blah-blah" and so on until the officers thoroughly disgusted, said, "Oh ahut up, you have just talked too much." So George went with disturbing peace, disorderly conduct, drunkenness, etc. hanging over his head. L. A.

Jerenza Jordan-Cole Avenue, under the auspices of the Choir has been acclaimed by the daily press in every city she has appeared as the greatest pianist of her race. From Musical Courier, June 7, 1927: "A remarkably interesting debut was made May 31st, at Memorial Hall, Chicago, by Lorenza Hall, colored pianist, who quite won her audience as well as critics by her artistic playing. Miss Cole has a beautiful tone, great facility of execution and showed dignity, poise and poetry in her reading of the entire program. Screenland Magazine says, Miss Cole, talented, young pianist, gave a noteworthy exhibition of pianistic skill June-19, 1924. Few pianists heard here this season have given a better reading of Chopin than did Miss Cole who played as though inspired to a discriminating audience, who enjoyed a real treat while thousands of music lovers certainly missed one by not being present. The writer said, "I myself went to the recital with no great expectations. I went away feeling that I had heard one of the best performances heard here in a long time". The Los Angeles Express says, "Inspired by the same worthy motive which enabled Booker T. Washington to band such benefit to be race, Lorenza Cole is articulously preparing to give only the best in musical literature in her programs. Her interpretation of Brahms was large in breadth and comprehension. Lorenza Jordan-Cole won the Jullliard Musical Foundation scholarship in 1922.

Lorenza was the only colored representative in more than 500 aspirants for the honor. Miss Cole, will be assisted by Mrs. Emma Smith, soprano, Southern California's greatest song bird.

Tyler, filed a divorce action on behalf of Arthur Dennis, allaging desertion and seeking the custody of the two minor children, there was filed a letter, which Court attaches say, is a prize winner for "halfutin" style and embellishment. The letter appears to have been written by one "Fred" and Arthur Dennis, the plaintiff, claims he found it upon his wife's dresser. The letter follows: "En Route, Chicago. "Dearest: "I am so lonesome for you tonight, it is impossible for me to resist, or refrain from scribbling you just a short missive to alleviate my loneliness, as I would be so happy if I was near you Sweet Woman." "For after you there is no one that would give me joy, in this whole universe. You DARLING I will always adore, even until the hour and moment I am consigned to my lonely earthly pillow, the same true love that, I now participate in for you Sweetheart will descend with me into my earthly residing place and ascend to our celestial home, to be punewed with affections of a greater supremacy. "I have been somewhat oppressed, Dearheart, ever since we parted, and you gave me a sweet kiss, which meant good-bye. I have been unhappy both day and night and I look at your pictures, more than a hundred times a day, and have meditations of the past, though it is gone beyond recall and when I realize the many, many happy moments, I have spent with you, Dearish, they is considered as my happiest days of your. Now Old Dear, I am pondering as in what the future will bring as I long for the time to come that we can be together in permance for I really have grown tired of this old way Dear. You seem to think sometimes that my confidence in you are very shallow, but My Dearling you never was so wrong for there is no greater confidence, could any have than that I have of you, as I believe you to be eminently chaste at all times. I will not proceed to worry with this scribbling as this old train plunging through the mountains and it is very rough indeed. Trusting that you pardon me for this bad writing and spelling. "N. B.: Many kisses." The letter will be sent to the Opportunity Magazine and to the Crisis and entered in the 1927 Contest for the Spiaghair Medal. Washington, D. C., May 31—A notebook, which he habitually carried in the left upper pocket of his coat, saved the life of Officer Charles D. Pople, here Tuesday, when Eugene Tucker plunged a long-bladed knife into the officer's coat in the direction of his heart. The thick notebook was pierced from cover to cover, but the policeman was just scratched. Turner was placed under arrest charged with resisting an officer and assault with a deadly weapon. Entertainment Unique In 1898, when the Spanish-American War began, "regtime" was in its beginning. One of the funes and songs by which the old fashioned 'cake-walk' was done, was called 'A Hot Time' in the Old Town Tonight'. At the battles which preceded the surrender of Sanfuego, this time was sung by the 10th Cavalry, and other Colored troops while they were engaged in storming El Caney, San Juan and La Guasima. The coming of that 10th Cavalry Band to Los Angeles to give a concert at the Olympic Auditorium on June 10th, for the benefit of St. Philip's Episcopal Church, or which Father W. T. Cleshon is doctor, recalls the stirring incidents of the summer of 1898 when this country was engaged in its memorable war with Spain, and the brilliant and drinking war our Colored soldiers played in the wars that were held on Cuban soil. One of the picturesque and outstanding regiments that was engaged in battle in Cuba was the 'Rough Riders'. This regiment was composed of cow-boys, hunters and 160 full blood Indians, together with a few graduates from Yale and Harvard, and was recruited in Arizona, New Mexico and Oklahoma. They became known as Roosevelt's Roog Riders, though in fact Theodore Roosevelt was Lieutenant Colonel of the Regiment and Dr. Leonard Wood was the Colonel. The fathoms which preceded the fall of Santiago began June 30th, and it was necessary to take San Juan Hill, a strategic point on the direct road to Santiago before the march could proceed. San Juan Hill and El Canyon were both captured on the same day, the surrender of Santiago taking place about July 17th. The 28th infantry was a part of General Miles Brigade which was composed of the 1st, 4th and 25th infantry Regiments, and held the center of the battle line. In the battle at SI Cune, Col. Wyott's Brigade was composed of the 9th, 13th and 24th Infantries, Col. Wyott was killed and the command fell to Lt. Col. Worth of the 13th Infantry, who was severely wounded, and the command passed to Lt. Col. Lecum of the 24th Infantry, who fell five minutes later. The brigade was then commanded by Lt. Col. Ewars of the 9th Infantry. General Kent in his report of this battle gives great credit to the 9th, 18th, 18th and 24th Regiments of Infantry Since 1866, there have been four treatments in the regular army, the 24th and 25th infantries, and the 9th and 10th Cavalry. These fought during the last years of the Civil War and were incorporated into the regular army as a result of the gallant part the Colored soldiers played in that memorable struggle. The 24th Infantry has the honor of being the first regiment ordered to the front in 1898 in the Spanish-American War, and many of the writers say that Col. Roosevelt's 'Rough Rider' were saved from annihilation by the waltman work or the 10th Cavalry who went to the charge singing 'There Will be a Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight.' It was the 24th Infantry that volunteered its services in clearing away the rubbish, and cleaning up the camps in Cuba, which abated the yellow fever peril, and saved the American Army from destruction by disease. It is of particular interest to those who have watched the soldierly and gallant conduct of these regiments to know that the 10th Cavalry Band, so rich in its traditions, and whose music has inspired the gallant fighting man of that regiment upon so many memorable occasions, is to be heard in Los Angeles for the benefit of Father Thomas Building Fund for his new Church, and no doubt as an appreciation for the honor this regiment has conferred upon all of the Colored people by its gallant conduct and soldierly bearing, every available seat in the Olympic Auditorium will be occupied on the evening of June 10th. Mose Mias Mimule Albritton in her fashion appearances in the city of Winston, M. E. Church this Sunday night, through ordering On Thursday, May 27th, a very interesting trial was held before the Hon. Geo. S. Richardson, Judge, Municipal Court Division No. 5, Elijah I. Peek, an ex-soldier and aviation captain during the World War, was on trial for having fallen asleep in the Pacific Electric Station at Hill, near 4th street, while awaiting an Owl car to Beverly Hills, where he is employed. He was charged with vagrancy. Attorney Tyler argued that if all persons who happen to fall asleep in passenger stations, churches, theatres, etc., were arrested for it, there would soon be more people in jail than out. Judge Richardson discharged the defendant. It developed that Mr. Peek is in a highly respected officer in Bethel A. M. E. Church, and has a spotless reputation. Because he told a "cop" that he lived in Beverly Hills, where he worked, the cop arrested him for having fallen asleep. Mr. Peek has engaged Attorney Tyler to sue the Pacific Electric Company for malicious arrest; the manager of the Terminal Building, having appeared at the trial and assisted the prosecution of Mr. Peek. Escaped Convict Captur ed After 36 Years (By: A. N. P.) (19) A. N. P. Salem, N. J., June 1—After a thirty- six years' search, Frank McGee, who has been in the Salem County Jail awaiting sentence by Judge Were on conviction of atrocious assault and bat- tery in this county, has been identified as an escaped convict from the Richmond, Va., penitentiary. The identification was established by a photograph which Sheriff Robinson filed at the state prison at Trenton some weeks ago. Captain Smith of the Richmond penitentiary came here Saturday night with extradition papers, and, upon advice of Judge Ware and Prosecutor Grier, the sheriff released the prisoner. Captain Smith stated that McGee was sentenced in 1891 to 15 years for breaking, entering and larceny, and in November, 1894, he and another prisoner escaped by digging a tunnel under the prison wall. The country had been completely covered with photographs of McGee, offering a substantial reward for his apprehension, but it was not until two weeks ago that his picture was found in the rogues' gallery at Trenton.

In a call, high secret order man, member of the deacon board of Pascagoula Baptist Church and a post office employee, is being held in Philadelphia, awaiting the arrival of Boston police with a warrant charging him with assault, according to police of station No. 10 Roxbury. Several weeks ago it is alleged that Postell, a married man with three children, went to the home of Mrs. Roberts of 803 Tremont, with whom he was infatuated. She refused to admit him into the house. Enraged, he fired several shots through the door. Mrs. Roberts, also married, and the mother of children, as the story goes, called the police who issued the warrant for Postell's arrest. The angry lover fled town immediately. Other than shattered furniture and a bullet-filled door, no damage was done. TAKES IT OUT DEBT-OR'S HIDE Pensauken, /N. J., June 1.—When William Wheeler of Morrisville, N. J., considered the $3.25 costs he paid to Recorder Dlehl or this village a low price for the legal information he obtained, he thought it was perfectly legal to "beat up" an enemy providing the enemy was on the public highway. That was what Wheeler did to Robert L. Murray of the same village. It was on account of the latter not paying the entire price of a pig purchased from Wheeler. Saturday the creditor decided, to "take it out of the debtors hide." "The joke's on me," laughed Wheeler. "I thought it was all right to beat up a man if you had good reason, providing you did not hit him in his own house." Nick Chiles Will Address N. A. A. C. P. And The Forum, Sunday The Hon.

Everybody is invited to turn out and hear this great defender of human rights. of the U. S. Army, First a (Continued from last issue) It was Tuesday, March 1st when we left Springfield for St. Louis. The trip from the Illinois capital to the Sunny Missouri City was uneventful, save for the gushes of rain and snow all along he way. We had passed thru St. Louis before but this was our first stop, and the only persons with whom we were acquainted were Editor Mitchell and the Malones. The Union Station at St. Louis to say the least, is pretentious, and to our mind is surpassed only by the Grand Central in New York City. Having notified no one as to the exact time of our arrival our first that was to secure the service of a taxi. We hastened out from and everywhere we could hear—"Taxi, Taxi, Taxi." Finally one fellow (white) tuck his face underneath our hat, and yelled "Taxi—where to lady?" After hesitating for a few moments we wondered if there were no colored taxi drivers about. The fellow owered his chin, and said "Yes" right around the corner." And in spite of the fact that we carried a rather heavy hand bag and likewise a hat box, we trapped them and tugged away in the direction the white driver had pointed, and found around the corner is described two benged and deserted axi cabs. After standing and looking in all directions for a few minutes, we finally spied a colored brother "Can you tell me where the drivers of these cabs mi" be found we asked. "wee" said the stranger "in the pool hall there." And again we persisted, "will you please call one of them," lipping a coin into his hand which had the tendency to quicken his speed. We then with baggage, crawled into the waiting cab, where we waited until we became frightened, and from that time until the very present we have seen neither Colored Taxi driver any grand boy. With a heart heavier, our baggage we slumped back in front if the Station, secured a white Taxi driver and went out to Pease College which was no short distance and called us no wee bit of fear and speculation as to where we should land on hat evening.

IS IT good business to spend over $200,000 to condemn, and over $40,000,000 to buy, the electric properties of Los Angeles Gas and Electric Corporation, which last year paid in to the public treasuries $652,000 in taxes, in order that the city officials may have the fun of operating the properties and that you may have the sun of making up the $625,000 each year in some other form of taxes? What Would You Get? IF Propositions 3 and 4 should carry and $45,000,000 or more of bond and tax money be spent, what would you get that you do not have now? Could conditions be any better under an unregulated political monopoly in electric service? Do you think they would be in good? Then why spend the money? WOULD you like it if there were only one grocer from whom everybody had to buy these properties? No. Then do you think it would be a good thing to have an unregulated political power monopoly in Los Angeles, to handle electric service like water service, street service, harbor service, etc., are handled? And arbitrarily to establish rates on short notice, like water rates and improvement assessments are fixed? Without competition or external regulation in electric service, just where would the consumer "get off" in rates and service accommodations? Would he receive free meter, free service to his meter location, and free commercial main extensions, as is now done in electric service under competition and in gas service under regulation; or would he pay for these charges as in water service under unregulated political monopoly? The "Duplication" Bugaboo MUCH has been heard recently about "wasteful duplication" of electric distribution systems, and the "thirsting up" of the stretch with needles pole lines. What are the facts? For twenty years there has been in existence a "Joint Pole Committee," composed of representatives of the electric power, electric utility, telephone, telegraph, fire alarm, and other systems using overhead wires. This "Joint Pole Committee" has seen to it that no unnecessary poles are set, but that as far as possible the wires of all the utilities are string on the same set of poles, each utility bearing its share of the expenses. Also for three years there has been a working agreement between the Bureau of Power and Light and Los Angeles Gas and Electric Corporation that neither should displace the existing lines of the other in the solicitation of new customers. Any duplication that exists was made good to this agreement. Existing duplication in the downtown business and industrial section is necessary and desirable for "emergency" protection. If the City should require the power system of Los Angeles Gas If the City should acquire the power system of Los Angeles, Gis and Electric Corporation it would mean practically nothing as far as minimizing "utilization" of systems is concerned.

Communion First Sunday UP-TO-DATE SERMONS So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the West and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the evening shall come in like a flood the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. Isa. 59:19. It is remarkable how this scripture has been fulfilled. And its fulfillment in the past is a guarantee of it fulfillment in the future. Remember that God, in attempting the salvation of man, undertook the most stupendous task of all time. He is attempting the salvation of a race of gods—nothing less. John 10:34-36. Made in God's likeness and image—and how much that means who can know—man has fallen in his nature without losing his peculiar attributes. Jas. 3:9. God did not attempt to save angels at all, but man, created a little lower than the angels, he crowns with glory and honor, giving him a wonderful salvation. God saves man with His word. This word is called the word of his salvation, Psa. 119. Romans 10. It includes information, historical, moral, religious. It also includes prophecy and divine promise. Hearing, receiving and believing this word we become changed in mind and affection so that as far as life and its issues are concerned we are "new creatures." A new creation therefore takes place every time a soul is saved. But to make this word efficacious in its given task, the Spirit of holiness whom the theologians call "the third person in the trinity" of the Divine Being takes hold of matters and useth the word Himself. There is therefore no failure in the word. It cannot be broken. Isaiah spoke about 700 B. G. This statement made in our text had been fulfilled many times. Many times it shall be again fulfilled. When Satan first overwhelmed Adam and Eve with unbelief and disdain, it was then the first promise of the victory was given, which Christ the Standard was lifted as the seed of the woman who should should bruise the serpent's head. Then in the days of Noah when the evil of man's heart had openly drowned all good till the imagination or his heart became "evil continually" that Noah built the Ark, a type of Christ and saved himself and family. And so was the human race saved upon the earth. lie and the glory of this people Israel. He is the real true standard. Him the Spirit lifts up when any subject condition arises of unbelief, of humanity of man to man; of crime waves, of any evil condition. Why, please you, police and detectives can't top crimes or crime waves, they can and do abate crime, they are God's ministers (Romanus 13) appointed to this one end. But with no Christ in their hearts, men are criminal themselves. They, the police have been known to be the criminals best friends. Go to court, as I have been end you will find the sympathy of the Judge entirely with the criminal, if that of the police is not, at least that was my experience. You who have been robbed are heckled, scolded at while the criminal is given every kindly consideration. That was my experience in the matter. Yet these men do the beat they can. Paul calls them unjust, I Cor. 6, they just can't but follow their prejudice whether these prejudices be personal and temporary or deep-seated and general. They cannot help but follow them, till their hearts are God-taught, Spirit-taught, fire-cleaned. How can men be just who hate God? God is goodness, love, fear, truth, justice, equity, righteousness, holiness. Men who hate God have these things. Pride was never just but always oppressive and murderous, biased, scornful, careless of justice for justice's sake, careless of truth and equity. Only the Spirit of the Lord can remedy this condition. He alone can lift the standard, the highest man the Christ-personality that the prejudice, the injustice, the mass worship, the mammon, the weak, immoral and immoral floods belched from the pit and flooding human life. Miss Lila G. Hart But it is only the Spirit-filled church that truly represents Christ. It is only the church filled and ruled by the holy Ghost that is the light of the world and the salt of the earth. Remember that that is not a church which merely goes by the name of one. The Church is the body of Christ, it is a Christ-indwelt, Christ-ruled organization. The Holy Spirit rules the true church and by His grace and His illuminating and enabling power she becomes a "blessing to all the families of the earth," truly the "mountain of holiness and the habitation of righteousness." Her children become the peacemakers of the earth, the followers of what is good, the true helpers of man, who bless them for Christ's sake without regard to race or fortune. And when in your own life, your trials become an overwhelming flood and conditions too hard to bear, it is then the spirit of the Lord who lifts the standard and gives you a sense of "pardon, peace, and power." It is He who goes with you to give you courage and before you to make the crooked straight. It is He alone who produces conviction of sin and a need of God in the life, and it is He alone who means that need with a sense of sins forgiven and of divine presence. The Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against the enemy. The precious soul of yours is in the hands of the Holy Ghost. Resist Him not, strive not against Him. His business is to bring you deliverance, yield your life into His hand. The time, shall yet come when the Kingdoms of this world shall become the Kingdoms of the Lord and of His Christ. You will not regret then that you yielded to Him today. Amen. Says All Presbyterians Have Same Attitude Toward Negroes By The Associated Negro Press) Memphis, Tenn., June 2.—While there are some difficulties in the way of a union of the Presbyterian churches or the North and South, the race problem is not the most serious, was the opinion expressed by Dr. E. C McCown, or the United Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, Penn., before the Southern Presbyterian Assembly which was in session here last week. After outlining a few of the obstacles to the proposed union the Pittsburgh minister declared: "The race question also enters into the list of difficulties but the attitude in the final analysis is practically the same. I have lived both north and south of the Mason-Dixon line and have found that people under the same conditions not about the same."

It must have been a distinct shock to the old-timers when they discovered that the reason they were not doing business in the summertime was because they were doing no advertising. It did not speak well for the vision of the thesee pioneer business men that they were so long in learning this secret of advertising; that advertising should be used mose extensively at those periods in the year when business needs an artificial stimulant. The business of advertising is to make business. With the aid of newspaper advertising many businesses have transformed the "summer slump" into a "summer boom". They have produced goods the public needs and wants during the warm months and have carried the news tothe consumers through advertising. Those who have something to sell—locally or nationally—will neither see nor feel this mythical slump if they do more and better advertising. There is more employment and therefore more money in circulation during June, July and August than during any other three months of the year. Why then should there be less business? BIRTHDAYS On the household calendar there is no more important event than birthday anniversaries of the children. Times and customs change and it is said the home is not what it used to be, but a child's birthday anniversary still remains a red-letter day. Of course there are birthday presents and great confusion during the administering of one spank or one tug of the ear for every year the little heir or heiress has been in the household. And sometimes the occasion is celebrated with a birthday party. Every fond parent knows it is out of tune to punish little lightly on his birthday, so the day is inaugurated with solemn vows that no matter what he does there are to be no scolding or shippings that day. Unfortunately the juvenile here of the day has more reasons for being naughty on his birthday than at other times. He is afraid and full of energy. He cannot understand why he cannot have his own way since it is his birthday party. And he is quick to discover that the birth of parental discipline have been lowered for the day. Youthful minder do not distinguish between liberty and honest. Nor do their smaller that there are other rewards for being good than security from punishment. If the parental rules the morning are broken one usually knows where to sit. Charles Lindbergh Canadian, first lone discoverer of Teen Atlantic Airplane route to Paris, crowned as foreign "National" international hero. Florence Cole-Talbert, grown admired, first lone American woman to star as Grand Opera leader in "Aida" with supporting White Italian company on Italian soil, so far persistently ignored by our White American diplomats and Opera companies, as well as newspaper correspondents. A five year contract with Italian admiration and enthusiasm behind it is that greatest living American song-artist's answer to make prejudice. This writer defies any prejudiced agencies or America or any country to prove that the heroic ability and the thrilling originality of Florence is less conspicuous than flying Charles' daring air-navigating dead. Perhaps when Lindbergh hears of the master heroisom of Cole Talbert he may tell America that heroisom is heroisom wherever found in any occupation. Is our diplomatic representation in Rome sound asleep and is President Coolidge all awakes? LINDBERGH, THE AIR PATHFINDER! Through the miles he sailed with his famous, one-man, history-making aircraft, crossing the grim and treacherous Atlantic ocean, and alighting at the Bourret aviator-field, a safe, a sound and an intrepid man, Charles J.尔德伯 to day is an immortal, deathless, matchless and peeler, perhaps the most courageous man of the tender age of 25 years, America has produced. The world applauds him, Presidents, kings, queens, diplomats, scientists, capitalists, beautiful women of wealth and fascination endeavor to dazzle him and the most magnificent leading men, types, names, beliefs via all with care, and each with all to pay him关爱, to win his friendship, to bask in his sunshine, to pet his form, for a new Hercules of the air has arisen, greater than any Hercules or physical prowess, of martial force, of historic endurance. Of all National and International heroes, he stands the highest as he is and always will be the first human being who saw stone and self-reliant in small plane across the Atlantic ocean, spanning the 3000 miles distance between New York and Paris without any human counsel or guidance, think big only of mother, home, ideal and farless inventive genius, really a fine and great young man, worth more than 1,000 Fords, 10,000 Wells, 10,000 of his hand more valuable than all the sinister and useless Kirk Klein hoodlums and Anti-Negro fanatic murders rolled into one composite paradox of American fraud-humanity. Charles Lindberch is deathlessly great and appearance grand, but he is a mixed product of the White race Swedish, English and French, as we are told, and if America had closed her shores tothe best and most needful formation of strugdy nationalities of all kinds and clauses. No Charles Lindberch could have evolved. An American mother with mixed blood of different nationalities in her veins, blesses this great son, this mixed limb of the White race Charles Lindberch was an unknown quantity, but he had a fine phylogue, a wealth of brains, a noble ideal and non-perseaching, but very useful and most desirable parents—a Congressman father, a pedagogue mother. But he is a White man and therefore historical history, world stirring and humanity shaking. Even President Calvin Coolidge cannot be idle when the whole world kneels and surrenders to the superior figure of courage of Hercules Charles Lindberch. Our President offers a warship in his honor to bring him to his beloved native America as a public hero, as an invincible pathfinder, as a daring navigator, perhaps only silently, if at all, second to the old and physically dead, but always living Christopher Columbus, himself. That Charles Lindberch heroism is deathless, always will live, as long as the world stands, is now history's decree; but in America particularly it can never die, for not only is Charles Lindberch really great, but he is the greatest ace of the three-national Lindberch White race has produced in America. COLLE-TALBERT, GRAND OPERA STAR PATHFINDER COLE-TAKEBERT GRAND OPERA STAR PATHFINDER But another glorious, yet tragical picture arises, the greatest lyric song of America sores out, high above American prejudice, like an earthly prejudice that came out of Lindenboro's luscious skies, stands the great figure of the unparalleled singer and Grand Opera actress, Florence Cole-Talbert of Los Angeles, the noblest statue and art-heroine known in human history, for on the 17th of March, 1877, at the Teatro Communio at Cosmopolis, Italy, she won the highest victory ever won by martial — women — as she played the stalloray role. Akin in this fine Grand Opera play, she was on a brown skinned actress, while porting company with the winning White and blue costumes, the midsummer and mid-summer costumes, the great stinger of this age, an American singer that America has envied the original. Florence Cole-Talbert's immortality in an audition, Charles Lindbergh's because of all those this staggering more than would be tolerable. THE MEMORIAL HALL OF THE MUSEUM OF THE ARTS AND CULTURE OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK We the undersigned, acting upon the suggestion of the Editor of The California Eagle, to acquaint ourselves with the true status of our Bureau of Power and Light, volunteered on last Friday, May 27th, to visit the Aqueduct and Power Plants, for the purpose of getting first-hand information that we might intelligently deal with the situation, but not dissolving upon each of our friends and the public at large. We felt that such a visit, was not only a visit, an information, but a dissolving upon each of us. Hence our visit. We are therefore, convinced after a thorough observation and investigation, that our officials of the Bureau of Power and Light are justified in their request to the values of the Los Angeles Gas and Electric Corporation's plants located in Los Angeles City. This request will Opera birds of America could not tolerate a Brown nightglide that was far superior in art, in soul and in history ran they—those white experts—were: For 20 years Madame Cole-Talbart was crucified in America, but in Italy, with a dictator like Mussolini at the helm, she found her artistic freedom, her critical liberty that was cruelly and selfishly stolen from and denied her in America. And why, therefore, do we call her as great a heroine as Charles Lindbergh in its aviation and commercial history, and answer to the poets of the United States to Calvin Coolidge, our President, in particular. Florence Cole-Talbert, the rejected artist of and in America, journeyed to Italy with a broken heart, but with a heraldism and there she determined that her cased art must be set free, for when her trifles are cleanly unfettered and publicly universalized, the whole Negra race must be set free by Italy's full recognition of her art. She studied day and night for two years and at last the art freedom that was denied her in America, was given her in July, for as the grandes Grand Opera singer Amarina ever produced, she won easily as the greatest song bird in "Alda" for Foreign soil. She is now her remarkable and historical row and, so President Carlin Coolidge in diplomatically relieved to send a warship after Florence Cole-Talbert and guard and guide her home in triumph—for what? First, for being the first American woman, White or Black, in the world to appear upon foreign soil, appearing in Grand Opus in the Italian language and winning first honors and greatest plaudits, even over the native-born white supporting artists. Second, for being the only brown Negro person, male or female, in the world, having the grand courage and the beautiful ability to appear in an all-event performance as "Aida" and making a historical success or this magnificent play. Third, for challenging all Negro batera, especially Negro art batera, be they diplomatic or street sweepers in America, to urish real ability and real thirst for real liberty—not an urging thirst for American bootleg—migovernment—and to strike out, as Florence Cole-Talbert did no heroically, on her own accord and win the most gorgeous victory, the most signal triumph any mortal could win, that was desolated an equal opportunity in Ameri- appear upon the ballot of June 7th, designated as NUMBER 3, which if carried, permits us to acquire plants now owned and operated by the Los Angeles Gas and Electric Corporation 1x Los Angeles; thereby augmenting our facilities and giving us that much needed reserve. PROPOSITION NO. 4 —will permit the Harbor Department to lease to the Municipal Power Bureau a parcel of vacant, litle tide area in the Harbor District as a site for a vitality farm now stand-by steam generating plant. —will protect electric consumers, by providing emergency service, against the losses that otherwise result from interruption | uute City's present power supply. The City's Power Bureau now buys a portion of its electricity from the Edison Company. In 55 months there were 298 serious immortal, deathless and as an anisymbiotic of art and liberty she will travel al over Europe and the noblest fame and the trust glory and the sweetest liberty will be here—America can just look on and we, wonder, will she applaud her talented brown daughter? And will Charles Lindbergh, our National and International hero, when he hears of our matchless and greatest singer of America, our National and international merchant, do otherwise than most of the White men before his day and pay the well earned heroic homage to Florence Cole-Talbert, who is as much of a deathless personality as in deathless Charles Lindbergh? If Charles Lindbergh, the heroic conqueror of the air is also big enough to conquer the still prevailing prejudice in America against anything great and heroic and artistic and historical that emanates from any other than strictly Caucasian source; if he realized that Florence Cole Talebt is the only American born artist that first coptered as star leader in the role of "Aids," not only White artistry, but native White prejudice as well, then, indeed, he is as great a man as Florence Cole Talebt is a woman, and more than that, he is as great as John Brown, and assuredly not less a max than Abraham Lincoln himself. Chapter II will follow. ruptions in the Edison supply. —will enable your Power Bureau to provide Los Angeles, with the most reliable and dependable type of electric service, by building this stand-by plant, as a part of its system, from plant to plant, for the public use.

War Declared On Lower California Development Company Since we wrote our last article, we have had the pleasure of talking with a young man who has been mis-informed auobt our purpose in writing these articles as has possibly been the case with many other persons. The young man had been led by attorney Macbeth or some of his friends to believe that our motives or purposes in continuing to write these articles about Macbeth's loose dealings were prompted thru the fact that we were not able to dictate the policies of the land company. Let us state just here, that if such propaganda is being circulated by Macbeth or anyone else, there is not a word of truth in it and the person or persons who do attempt to fool the public with such statements is a fit subject and rightfully should be president of the Annamies Club. Talking about us opposing Macbeth's leadership, why that is absurd. Acquiescing and following his leadership is the thing that has this company and its offspring into a muddle from which it never will be able to extricate itself. This extra property only cost the sum of $28,000.00. The people pand in $18,000.00 and yet Macbeth with his loosely bound hands loosely touch and his loose handness loosely still in his hand to the extent of $28,000.00, an unpleasant balance. When we and unshaken one conversation with this young man we think that he was truly convinced that our motives and reasons were fair and not. We mean to keep on earth not only convince the public, but also until we convince some of our poor, weakened fellow discovers who would allow Macbeth to slip them away by night to go on being able to pull off some stunt to the destination of Messrs. Littlechurch and Rose. HAWKS RUNS Shoots Roy In Real Hall Johnson's Pool Hall, 1015 Central Avenue, was the scene of what came near being the instant killing of a boy, by a shot fired from the gun of Robert Randall. Randall who is known as "Curley," was an attendant at the place and the boy, a bootblack, out at a stand in front. During an argument said to have started through their customary "kidding" match, Curley suddenly drew a gun and fired striking his victim in the side. The bullet passing through his body. REV. L. B. BROWN ARRESTED The warrant issued for Rev. L. B. Brown on embebzlement charges was served on him and he was placed in jail until through the ministrations of friends he was released by bond broker Dumas Johnson, Wednesday night. On trial in Judge Leonard Wilson's court Thursday, his case was set over to June 8th, at 2:00 o'clock P. M. RE-CAPTURE CRIMINAL WHO FOUGHT WAY OUT OF FINGER PRINT ROOM A whole squad or policemen and a bullet from Officer Slangher's gun were necessary to round up Leon Griffin at 800 East 23rd Street. Slangher was wanted on a warrant for suspicion of burglary. Several times before Griffin had been arrested, but when brought to trial, had succeeded in getting a suspended sentence or dismissed. The crimes he had been picked up on were of various natures. One most serious one being when he had been surprised by officers while annoying a Mexican woman who had screamed and attracted their attention. Three months ago after being arrested for fire stealing he as being examined and finger-printed suddenly smashed Bledoe in the room. He has been at large until a few days ago when he was surrounded by Officers McDunn, Gren, Slangher, Wolfer and Henry. He again broke through the cordon of missions and was making his beta-way when Officer Slangher fired at his flying jet and struck him in the ankle. He was carried to the Receiving Hospital where his wound was treated. He was then transferred to the General Hospital where he will remain till sufficiently recovered for trial. BEATS WIFIE—30 DAYS IN JAIL Paul Davis an employee of Burns and Ackery Pool Hall was tried in Judge Wilcox's Court for beating his wife. He had been in the habit of maltreating her it was testified by his spouse d her mother at the trial, but this not beating. It seemed, was severer than usual. The judge bare him 30 laya to improve his temper. HIS HOUSE WAS DISORDERLY Office Church couldn't see the logic in so much noise and such actions as were taking place in the house run by Oscar Davis at 1115 Eight 18th St. Loking around he found the cause of it in plenty or booze. His trial was set for June 7th. OF FALSE CHARGES The long drawn out case of Mrs. Diggs in Judge Bullock's court which was drawing to a close as we go to see her and fluttering on the part of the prosecution lawyer Kirby and a seeming intention to defame Mrs. Diggs' character by the only two colored witnesses for the prosecution, Mrs. Gerundy singer in Beth Eden. Church and Mr. Chas Shields. The case grew out of two pair of cartasias which Mrs. Diggs, former employer, Mrs. Powers accused her or stealing, though evidence showed no positive prof of her guilt. She was ably defended by Attorney Griffith Jones and a number of witnesses testified in her behalf. BOND BROKER JOHNSON ON THE JOB TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN This is to certify that all of the institutions which have been published against the character, integrity and ability of Attorney Hugh H. Machech in connection with the development and control of the Lower California Wardens Lake A Development Company are stillly untrue, in fact, and are being published for the sole purpose of putting Mr. Machech in an easy public controversy with his former Executive man which Mr. Machech familiarly came to do. The publication is given with the assistance and aid of the Board of Commissioners of the Lower California Wardens Lake A Development Company. Chief Engineer William Mulholland of the City's water system yesterday issued a statement endorsing Proportions "I" and 4 on the June 7th election ballots, and pointing out particularly that approval of these measures will greatly assist the City in securing much needed water and power supplies from the Colorado River. Mr. Mulholland, builder of the City's Owens River Aqueduct and father of the new aqueduct project that will bring domestic water to Los Angeles and neighboring cities from the Colorado River, stated that approval of Propositions 3 and 4 will greatly benefit every citizen of Los Angeles and will cost the Los Angeles taxpayers nothing. He declared that he particularly wished to relocate the contention emanating from certain quarter that approval of these measures may in some way endanger the City's Colorado River Aqueduct project. "Proposition 4 will enable the Harbor Department to realize a large annual rental from another City Department, the Municipal Power Bureau, by leasing a parcel of vacant tide land as a site for a stand-by steam plant," said Mr. Muhloland. "The Power Bureau will use its own funds to construct this plant, and it therefore will not involve any sort or new bond issue. "Approval of Proposition 3 will in no way interfere with or endanger the City's program of water and power development from the Colorado River. On the contrary, it will greatly assist the City in securing water and power from the Colorado. "Proposition 3 authorizes a step that will put the people in possession of valuation facts to be considered when the question of buying the Company's electric system is submitted for their decision. However, should bonds be voted at a later date to finance the purchase of this system, it cannot affect, otherwise than beneficially, the financing of the City's Colorado River water and power projects. "Bonds voted to purchase the Gas Company's electric system, of course, would be classed as City Power Bonds. These bonds are revenue producing securities, and the City Charter provides that such revenue producing bonds do not affect the City's bonding limit. "Los Angeles Power bonds have served to raise the City's credit in the money markets of the Nation because they are backed by a sound and profitable municipally-owned utility. "It truthfully may be said that the City's power business has a vital relation to the success of the Colorado River project. Under the Swing-Johnson bill, the Government will require the entire cost of the project to be fully financed by cities and communities interested, before a dollar of Government money is expended. Obviously, this means that Los Angeles must be prepared to sign up for the greater part of the power output of the project. "In order to get the water we need from the Colorado River, this city must co-operate with the Government in the marketing of Boulder Canyon power. The City of Los Angeles will be able to take on this burden according to the amount of power business—present and future—of the City's Power Bureau. Manifestly, if the Power Bureau had all the power business within Los Angeles, the ability of the city to assume the financial burden of the Boulder Canyon project would be that much greater. "In short, acquisition by the city of the electric properties of the Gas Company is good business for the city and its citizens." ADVICE ON REPORTING FIRES A great many sections of the city are without fire alarm boxes, which is one of the conditions. Fire Chief Scott is continually trying to remedy. It is impossible for the Fire Department to secure its budget allowance any more than is absolutely necessary to run the department for a current year, and this fact leaves him helpless to expand with the growth of the city, except by bond issues. The taxpayers over the entire city are paying for a high class fire alarm system, but only in those sections where alarm boxes are located they are receiving all the service for which they Reluctant parking You will miss your car while it is in the shop, but you need not lose the advantages it gave in town. For a few days, use Yellow Cabs. See why so many car owners depend on Cabs in the city. Convenient and comfortable. No driving and parking worries. Economical. Phone pay. To correct this condition, as well as to provide adequate protection for the ENTIRE city, Chief Scott has been laboring diligently in an attempt to have a bond issue submitted to the voters. In the absence of a fire alarm box, or when there is no close proximity, the telephone then becomes a valuable adjunct to the Fire Department. We are going to ask those who have phones, to familiarize themselves with the directions in the front part of the telephone directory. In connection with the use of the phone in report a fire, Chief Scott wants every adult and child to know the following: Emergency numbers are placed at the top of the front cover of the telephone directory. The Department number (for reporting fires only) is Fitzroy 3131. Every person old enough to report a fire should practice dialing this number without taking the receiver off the hook. In reporting fire hazards, inquiring about fire prevention laws, or the transaction of other business with the department, the correct number to be called can be found in the telephone directory under "Fire Department." If you have a manual phone (non-dial), time will be saved if you ask尔 Fitzroy 3131 in reporting a fire. If you are in the dark and don't know the number, or should you experience any difficulty in obtaining connection to the Fire Department, give the details of your call to the operator, and she will assist you in completing your call. Should you have the dial type 'phone, you should at all times dial Fitzroy 3131, but in case of emergency, dial the opening immediately beneath the 'finger stop' marker "Operator." When the operator answers, tell her you want to report a fire and she will complete the call for you. In either case, never leave the 'phone until you have communicated your message to the fire department. At all times in calling the Fire Department, be sure to state just what your difficulties are. If you are not explicit you might find a great many pieces of fire apparatus responding to extinguish a fire, when, in reality, what you desired was the services of a Rescue Company.

War Declared On Lower California Development Company On last Monday evening, May 16th, 1927, an event took place which we are sure will leave deep and lasting impressions upon the minds of many persons who were present as well as upon ourselves. This occasion was the closing event of the hearing of the charge that we had preferred against Attorney Hugh E. Macbeth before the Los Angeles Bar Association. Maebeth on hand full of smiles, with quite a delegation of his friends on hand and represented by a white attorney at law. He came in quite "cocky" and at the opening of the trial got peeved and later grew a bit "sassy" to the grievance committee of the Bar Association. We thought it quite bad diplomacy, yet he has told us several times that he stood a high with the district attorney and that we would never be able to get that office to do anything to him. It may be possible that he thinks he stands the same with the Bar Association. Probably he does, but we will wait to be shown. Both maintained this spirit of cockiness for a short while but when these gentlemen began shooting question after question into him, concerning his actions in the promotion of the raffle, handling its funds and not making any report to the people of the same, he soon lost his spirit of arrogance and fell into that same old attitude of submissive meekness. Not only did he return to submissive meekness, but to that same old attitude which has characterized him for years in misleading of his people and the debauching of his own soul. He continued his testimony by making statements to the Bar Association and he knows that there is not an iots of truth in them. He told the Bar Association that no one had accosted him or spoken to him concerning a settlement to the people of the money which the people had contributed in the fake automobile raffle, prior to the time that we had attempted to take him to court. He also stated that the Board of Directors of the Land Company had passed a resolution or motion in one or its meetings for him to use that Five Hundred Dollars to pay off his personal obligations. We thank God for one thing and that is that some more of our "big" directors were present and heard this statement. There is not a single one among your directors that would testify that such powers or privileges were granted "Mr. Jacoeth with the exception of p. Mr. Robinson that one person" "Mr. Robinson (Crusie) "good man" "Friday man that we should would be able to pour water out of a jug with the inscription on the bottom, "Turn the slide up." We sympatize with some of our Directors for the simple fact that they have put their money into this proposition and they know that if Macbeth is ever fully disposed for the way in which he has handled this land company's affairs, that the whole proposition is going to blow up, but we had just told you your signature that this ship is sinking slowly but surely. We are told that as simple a thing as a rat has sense enough to try to get off a sinking ship. We hope our fellow directors will catch the significance of this statement. This may be an unjust criticism, but we take unto ourselves the authority to make it, that one of the greatest weaknesses now hinders the progress of the Negro race is that it is too well fled and saturated with that element of people whose religious dignity and power to help clean from among us sites, blood suckers, and other such characters, especially if this undesirable character is or has been associated with our group. We have no prophecies to make on what will be done by the Bar Association. They are to give their decision sometime later, but whatever they do, we will be satisfied. If their decision is in your favor, we will be satisfied. If their decision is in our favor, it will not be the last of this utter, and if it be against us, we expect to continue just the same. We are going to get this thing straightened out some way at all costs. If there is anyone who thinks that he or she is protecting his or her money by not trying to help straighten it out, you may get disappointed. It is everybody a job, it makes no difference who you are. Let it be the priest, elder or deacon, when you attempt to protect your money by shielding or acquiescing in the protection of wrong doors, you express, to the world that your goodness is no greater than any other non-believer, and that your good is greater for gold than for God.

The kettas, was showered (Continued from last week) "The prime objective in this lawsuit was to save Poro College. That was the chief consideration throughout the case and Poro College goes to Mrs. Malone free and untouched. Malone of clikim to a partnership in Poro never even formed a basis for settlement. It had no foundation; in fact and was abandoned completely by his force when they discovered that we had lawsuited fastimony made in a court court fastimony made in a court and overgain that he was not a partner in Poro and had never been a partner, and that "the business belonged to my wife." "Mr. Malone was her husband and she naturally contemplated making him an allowance in case of separation or divorce and he inordinate right or dower interest would require, according to the law in Missouri, but he received about one third of what he easily could have had. If this foolish law suit had not been started. "It was an unpleasant case. When the record of the complainant's life was finally completed, we preferred not to expose it. Again the court had appointed a receiver without warning, or notice and as we knew without reason and such an action was hardly encouraging by Mrs. Malone to go to trial before such a tribunal." "Mr. Malone receives less than $40,000 cash to be held in escrow until the terms of the agreement are compiled with." The total costs allowed in the case for court costs and receivers fees and help was seen at $3,000. Mrs. Malone keeps all of the real estate in her name. He keeps all in his name except two valuable pieces which she is holding because they are the homes she has provided for two old couples. These he recovevies. Some of the joint properties in this and other cities mostly unimproved are divided. Mr. Malone agrees to give a full receipt and absolute release of any and all interests in any of her property or effects. Counsel had been empowered with authority to arrive at the final arrangement and the terms of the divorce which will probably be heard soon were agreed upon. Mrs Malone has assumed personal charge of her business, which because of her continued residence in the building and the longevity of the Poro force had not suffered as much as from the rampage of the received he had been feared. One of her first acts was to reinstate Edgar E. McDaniel, office manager, and Charles E. Stone, personnel manager, faithful and efficient employees whom Paechen had fired, because of their fealty to Mrs. Malone. Because of the trust, mottoes and hundreds of letters and telegraphs of congratulation and love have poured in on Mrs. Malone has been forced to add an extra personal secretary to keep up this nation-wide appreciation of her victory. A different air pervades Poro. There is a joyous happy expression on the faces of the force. They have adopted the slogan, "This is Poro. Business as usual." MADAM TYLER (Continued from Last Week) souffle, refreshing voice of this marvelous and revolutionizing singer—Belle by name and a singing bell and really a belle in look, indeed! And now she leaves us and goes to Europe, from whose shores Florence Cole-Talbert returns! One great one comes home, the other great one away. Compare the two, Florence Cole-Talbert, the great soprano, with Belle Sojourn, the contralto—no, no, no, we will do it—There is no comparison between and of the two, because they are both so great, so good, so noble, so charming in their art, only a criminal, an art-criminal would want to compare two such stars as these two female artists are. And now Belle Salter-Tyler goes away to Europe, in study more, to win more and, to stand for more in fame and glory than she can stand for here, for Belle Salter-Tyler is a true, fried and triumphant Negro woman, beautiful, three times beautiful—beautiful in song, in looks and especially in soul—she is so true, never a traitor, despite her physical majesty, that she remains Black and stays with her beloved dark people.

PROMINENT TAX- PAYER ENDORS- ES TODD A keen student of civic affairs for the last thirty years, a man of varied experience in city politics, an retired chief of the City Fire Department in which he rose from the ranks of volunteer in the early days, John G. Todd, candidate for the City Council from the Tenth District is a man particularly well fitted by character and experience for the place. Coming to Los Angeles from St. Louis forty-one years ago, when he was a resident he continuously since that time. Forced to sell papers and shine shoes here to eke out the family income, Mr. Todd worked. His way through the public schools and his humble beginning has made him a strong friend of the laboring woman, thousands or whom are numbering among his closest friends. Knowing what it means to earn a dollar by hard and honest toll, Mr. Todd as a councilman, may be depended on to see that every dollar raised from taxes is expended honestly and carefully, so that it performs a full dollar's worth of work. Mr. Todd has been a taxpayer in Los Angeles for twenty-three years, and regulates what bundles are placed on the small homeowner's bill. While it is a family brain, the time Mr. Todd was a struggling young newsboy and bootlick to the present, when he is recognised as one of the Mr. civile leaders in Los Angeles, Mr. Todd has not forgotten his early struggles, and his friendly personality has won and kept for him the thousands of friends in all walks of life. In the recent primary election Mr. Todd was next to the high man in a field of seven candidates, and several of the men whom he defeated in the primary race are now working earnestly and wholly dedicated for his election at the poll June 7th. T! GOLDEN WEST With the municipal election campaign nearing a close reports throughout the Tenth Councilman District indicate an increasing interest in the candidacy of D. Snapper Ingram, who is running for the City Council in this district. According to announcement from Mr. Ingram's campaign headquarters scores of endorsements have been received from prominent citizens, influential civic groups, and candidates who opposed him in the primary election. The platform on which Mr. Ingram is asking election to the City Council is pledged to the application of common sense in all matters pertaining to city government, particularly in the matter of assessments. Mr. Ingram believes that overlapping assessments which tend to confiscate the property of the taxpayer must be stopped. He advocates the opening and widening of such thoroughfares as are required, but he believes that the people of the district in which such opening and widening is proposed should first approve such plans, inasmuch as they the people who pay the bills. Mr. Ingram is in favor of the acquisition of additional parks and playgrounds in the Tenth District and contends that that can be accomplished without extra burden to the taxpayer, through the utilization of city school grounds. The candidate has dedicated his support to the program of undification of street planting to aid in making Los Angeles, "The City Beautiful". Mr. Ingram is pledged to the further development and improvement of Los Angeles Harbor as one of the city's most valued assets. He is a strong advocate or the Boulder Canyon Dam project to supply water and hydroelectric power for the needs of the growing city. The candidate is particularly interested in adequate fire and police protection in the tenth District, in conjunction with additional quarters, if necessary to assure this protection for the citizens and their property. Mr. Ingram has lived in Los Angeles 22 years and in the Tenth District seven years. He is a property owner and his seventeen years of experience in the city engineering department has trained him to the needs and problems of the taxpayer. During the war he served in France and since his discharge from the army he has been active in the work of veterans' organizations has been a member of Sunshine Corps and a member of the City Inter-port Council of the American Legion and vice president of the Disabled Veterans of the World War. In addition to the large number of individuals who have endorsed his candidacy he has been given the support of the following organizations: United Veterans of the Republic, "First Five Hundred", Hoover Street Business Men's Association, Manufacturers, Employees, & Civis Association, Associated Bakers of Southern California, Loyal 79 Clubs, Disabled Veterans of the World War, Civic Rights Association, and Figuerres Street Business Men's Association. Mr. Dones' Pretentious Stag For Honorable Nick Chiles Sidney P. Dones, premier Really dealer, gave a very preventative sing party in honor of Hon.

WILL ENABLE YOUR POWER AND LIGHT SYSTEM TO GIVE YOU BETTER ELECTRIC SERVICE AND LOWER RATES. APPROVAL OF PROPOSITION 3: Will enable the State Railroad Commission to complete its work of making evaluation of the electric system of the os Angeles Gas and Electric Corporation. This is a valuation only—and not a purchase proceeding. All expenses incidental to the making of this valuation will be paid directly from revenues of the Power Bureau—and not from Taxes. APPROVAL OF PROPOSITION 4: Will enable the State Railroad Commission to complete Municipal Power Bureau a parcel of vacant tide land as a site for a vitally necessary stand-by steam plant. This steam plant must be built in order to protect power and light consumers against interruptions in service. The steam plant is to be built from Power Bureau funds. No new bond issues will be necessary. REMEMBER THESE FACTS: 1. You are now being served gas by two "competing" gas companies in Los Angeles. These "competing" companies recently increased their rates from 68 cents to 92 cents per 1000 cubic feet. 2. Your Municipal Water Bureau has a monopoly of the water business in Los Angeles—and your Water Bureau is selling water for 18 cents per 100 cubic feet, as compared with the rate of 28 cents per 100 cubic feet charged by the private water company in San Francisco. Do not be hoodwinked by the prophecy that purchase of the Gas Company's electric system will burden the taxpayers with a "huge bond issue." The City purchased the Edison Company's electric distributing system in Los Angeles in 1922; and not one dollar in taxes has been collected on account of the Edison purchase bonds since your Power Bureau took over the former Edison system. All charges on Power Bonds are paid from earnings of the Power Bureau—and not from taxes. APPROVAL OF PROPOSITIONS 1 AND 4 Will Not Cost the Taxpayers One Dollar A very unusual and enthusiastic meeting was held Christopher Tavera, on Sunday, May 3rd. This was the first meeting of the young people's division of the Black American League. Mr. Charles Browne, who is in charge of the Department of Athletics, presided. This meeting was a part of the organizing program to line up a few of the major, and some minor officials preparatory to the Mr. Marge membership drive which will start July 1st. The personal of the Department of Athletics, Recreation and Athletics is being recruited from the ranks of the young told, and a great dek of interest and enthusiasm is being shown. The principal speakers for the after noon were: Mrs. C. A. Bass, Mr. Garland Anderson, Mr. Payne Middleton, Mr. Wm. Faulkner, Mr. Leon Whittaker, Mr. Ishmel Flory, and Mr. Geo. S. Grant. A refreshing lunch was served during the progress of the meeting. There was a large gathering of young people in attendance, and quite a bit or interest was evidenced among them; all arguing to do their bit in putting the Black American program, over. The reorganization of the League started on the first of last March, and the programs of recruiting material for the various departments has been carried on ever since. The membership drive will start July 1, 1925, and will go over big. Any one interested, get in touch with Geo. S. Grant, orchas. Martin, 1315 East 12th Street. Let's go over the top, with the Black American League. "Testimony is to the effect that Mr. Martin is a high class Christian gentleman with a will, when executed, will be in the interest of the people and not that of a few plutocrats. I am a degree of reluctance that I proceed to form a committee that will bring about his election to the Council from the 4th District. "Committee as follows: Mr. E. L. Chew, Mr. and Mrs. S. S. Johnson, Mr. and Mrs. L, P. Bell, Mr. and Mrs. T." REMOVAL SALE OF ED. JALOFF (KY: A. N. P.) Kansas City, Kans. May 25—Chester Lee, 402 Minnesota Avenue, hit upon the idea of carrying liquor around in hot water bottles slung under his arms—just in case he should meet the police. Saturday he dropped into a party at the home of Mrs. Amelia Williams, 1222 North Third street. He found she had some unloved guests in the persons of Officer Cordell, Mohart and Newark of "building stand and propently executed what military men would call a "right wheel." However, Mohart caught him in the yawn he attempting to empty his water bottle, his police found more liquor in his car. He explained his new use of hot water bottles to the judge. Pays Assailant's Fine (49) A. N. P.) Brooklyn, N. Y., June 1—William Cheeks paid the fine of the man he had arrested for beating him. Magistrate Beautifully Eagle Hall on Just Friday evening was decorated with both cat and pet flowers for the occasion of the reception for Mr. and Mrs. Nick Chiles of Topeka, Kansas. This reception was tended by Mrs. Stella Turner, sister of Mr. J. Chiles; Mr. and Mrs. S. D. Patterson, Mrs. Patterson is the daughter of Mrs. Chiles and Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Bass, Mr. Bass a lifelong friend of Mr. Chiles. Hundreds thronged Eagle Hall from 3:30 to 12:00 P. M. in the parliaments stood Mr. and Mrs. Chiles, in the receiving line were Mrs. Clara Hubert, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Bass, from their station after introduction to the guest or honor the guests passed into the beautifully decorated hall where entrancing music was rendered and punch was served and ice cream and cakes. Many took advantage of the situation here and tripped the fantastic toe to the very tempting music. The ladies were gowned in the latest creations of the modiste's art and he men appeared largely in conventional frock. It was remarked by all as one of the prettiest and certainly largest receptions ever given in this section. Goodman imposed a fine of Five Dollars upon Christopher Henley for his attack on Cheeks. Henley couldn't pay. "I have never yet sent a man to fail." Cheeks said, "I will pay his fine." SALE OF JALOFF WITH SPRING STREET TO Spring Street SUIT TO ORDER $30 ALOFF Spring Street SPRT PAGE CALIFORNIA EAGLE COUNTRY CLUB ACTIVITIES EDITED BY HARRY LEVETTE AT LAST! BABY GANS AND ALFONSO GONZALES! A GRUDGE FIGHT FOR A SIDE BET It started a few days before Art and Ace Hudkins left for New York. The argument as to who was the best man—Baby Joe Caps or the sensational Mexican flash Alfonso Gonzales. It wound up by Gan's hackers offering to bet $1,000 and the hackers of Gonzales taking it up. The stakes have been placed in the hands of the "Callahan" and the "Bullard" all. Argument pro and con has gone on, until there is a lot of ill-feeling on both sides, both on the part of the principal and the backers of the two bitter rivals. It looks like it will be a terrific grudge fight with each determined to put the other out of commission. Gonzales has been coming along rapidly with a string of victories to his credit, the latest being a win over Tommy O'Brien at Hollywood Stadium two weeks ago. At this fight Gonzales was winning handily when the repeated fouls came which ended in the referee's decision and the suspension of O'Brien. A good supporting card will take up the main event in case either of the boys decided to get his $1000 before the 10th round. The set is at fever heat and a large percentage of sales have already been made. Along Fisticuffs Row TIGER JACKIE BURNS is getting better and better under the leadership of his able managers Abe and Clyde Hudkinson. He really throws a wicked lot of gloves and makes up for his height by speed and punching power. DEAN SNYDER really was right on the job with the Olympic publicity for the Suggs-Taylor fight. Dean overlooked no angle towards letting the cock-eyed world know what it's all about. His Taylor story in the Eagle fight extra was a work of art. SLMASTERS, full of fight and fresh with ideas is back on the job now after winning a finish fight, with the flu. Even old man "Flu" can't make the versatile Mr. Masters take the count when he has big business on hand. THE MOTORCYCLE POLICE really strutured their rubber last Wednesday day morning as they led the Chick Suggs welcome parade from the station all over town. They rather liked that too. EAGLE THOMAS the classy little bantam has as fine a set, of back shoulder and biceps muscles as you usually see on a wetherweight. Eagle wore a black shirt with Suggs on the last day of his training and showed well against the speedy Easterer. RALP VOLKE the boy trainer liked nothing better than to be able to boss the great blonde Terror Bud Taylor around in his training quarters at the Manhattan gym. BILLY EVANS worked some classy work-outs with Chick Suggs during his training at the Vernon. Gymnasium He showed plenty of speed and that he is in readiness at any time to step into the arena. YOUNG SAM LANGFORD, so they say, turned one lose at Vernon gym last week while sparring with Baby Gans, that shook the "Young Master" from stem to stern. It made him feel like when Leonard told Fendler, "Gee Lew, I didn't know you could hit that hard!" Sam is in wonderful shape now. GEORGE TITTINGTON, has really gotten rough with his little fighter Langford. Runs him to bed with the chickens, and threatens to beat him up the first time he catches him smelling a hootch bottle, chasing "skirts" or blinking at the dizzy white light. Says he'll make a champion of him or kill him. George knows how he used to be some fighter himself. Olympic Planning Ahead For Their Bouts Wauhams will use Billy Grimes on one-half of his June 6th show. The Australian's opponent will be picked from Eddie Shea, Joey Sangor, Suggs or possibly Taylor. The Olympic schedule for the nevt few weeks is: June 6—Grimes vs. Shea or Sangor or Suggs or Taylor. June 14—Brown vs. Vacca. June 21—Callahan vs. O'Brien. Alabama Trounces Tuskegee Twice Montgomery, Ala., May 28.—(By A. N. P. The Alabama State.

It was the third straight victory for the California lad. Trent was selected to do mound duty for the visitors and truly pitched a very-creditable game. The game was called in the seventh inning on account of rain.

Tilden and Francis Hunter in a doubles match at 4-6, 6-2 and 6-2. Tilden defeated Rene La Cose and Tilden defeated Rene La Coste and Hunter was beaten by Borotra. BILLY EVANS-WILL TOP THE BILL AT CULVER CITY Following his intention of using the best local colored boxers as often as possible on his excellent card, Jimmy Murray, the great little promoter of Culver City Stadium, plans to use Billy Evans to top his bill a week from Thursday. Billy is a great boy, one (t the best featherweights in the country, winning all his starts since here and will make a great following when he battles at the Coast Arena. Talladega-Ala.—The swimming Pool at Cullanan Gymnasium was the scene of a great spectacle Friday afternoon when two teams representing the College and High School Departments net in the most thrilling and most successful water combat ever witnessed at Talladega. Talladega College won over High School Department in annual swimming meet by a score of 31 to 20.

GIANTS HOLD SAN BERNARDINO CENTRALS TO HARD-FOUGHT GAME Jim Hunt's L. A. Giants fought a hard losing battle against odds Sunday at San Bernardo against the San Bernardino Centres at their park. The odds were that they were greatly handicapped by the loss of Green, Wilson, Frier, Foote, and Capt. Adams, who in the Jasper Al-Nasir finally succeeded getting. The Huntens had sign up to play in the been dropped by Adama. They are Vaughn, Carter, Window, Owens and Newell. The San Bernardino Centrales are in hard bunch and had excellent hitteries so Gina's the new captain, had to use up three pitchers with Williams 11-13 Farley 2-2-3 and Butcher the last four innings. Golns caught the game through. Sensational features were developed in the Giants' hard fight to hold the Centrales down to their four runs. Butcher made the 1st hit in the 2nd ring. Winden the 2nd in the 4th and had a 2 stack in the 3rd. Golns did well, bogus stalking. A nouncement is made in another column of the next game. Jimmy Jones, the crack Riverside pitcher has been added to the pitching staff and will show his wares in the next game. The score follows: L. A. Giants..... 000 001 000-1 S' B.

Ramblings Around Ring And Diamond BY: JOHNNY COND Next week, June 7—Portland at Los Angeles. Oakland and Hollywood played one of the best series that has been played in the Coast League this year. It was just like World Series games. The feature of the series was the home run hitting by Fenton and the great infield of the Oakland team Larry, Hesse and Fenton made some plays that would make a dead man over in his grave. Fenton is sure over or a big man. He does 3 rounds every time to jab the boy and get his Billie Burke told Fenton that was the way to be a good fighter. If he got hit, out he goes. Billie Burke is taking Fenton to Kansas City to show Boole how to hit and get away. Fenton will show Boole and Delaney how to play pool and show them how to make the white laddle. AGE HUDKINE BEAT MELLO AT MADISON GARDENS NEW, XKRE NEW YORK BABY JOE GANS—The Young Master Jake Kilrain to Box on Dick Donald's Next Big Wrigley Field Show Things are rounding into shape now for Dick Donald's next big show, for the 13th. Dick has had a hard time trying to get the class of fighters line up that it takes to draw enough investors in dacats to fill the great outdoor arena. A wire a day or two ago from Jas. Daugherty gave him prospects of Romero Rojas to be used against Godfrey, but at any event there is one great boy signed up already for one of the 3 tens planned who will be likely to steal the show if a good man is placed against him. This is the Lichenstein stabble. Larmey waited quietly until Kirklin's Oakland contract was clear then grabbed off one or the best light-heavies on the Coast, Kirklin did most of his boxing in the North and around Denver, winning regularly and bowling over a large number or good boys. He is fast, clever, scientific and bits like the kick of a male, and for gameness has to be knocked out to give up. So far he has never learned the taste of raspin and is getting better all the time. Jake is raining daily at the Main St. gym and in fine shape to take all the heavies a they come. Main St. A. C. Holds Big Week-end Bout-Fest Famed for the speediness of the boute it stages and its usual quick endings, the Main Street Athletic Club is serving the following line up for Saturday night: Plea Rattleson, 180, 8R, Tommy Cleary Art Blalock, 122, 8R, Eddie O'Dwyer Johnny Albina, 146, 8R, Jack Forbull Harman Ritterhouse, 185, 4R, Ad Legan Pat O'Connor, 185, 4R, Kid Harvora Shane Office FA, 2004; Rea, WE, 3165 OPEN, ALL NIGHT BURAS JOHNSON, Broker 1136 E. 180 W.

Get busy. Practice and then write editor of this column in care of the Eagle to get information in regards to competing with other girls. Watch for the Popularity. Contest soon for the most popular girl athlete. Jasper's All-Stars Come To the Front in Sunday's Game Jasper's All-Stars threw off the bad luck that seemed on their trail by piling up 13 lucky scores to the S. P. Shape 8 last Sunday at White Sox Park. The new Captain Adams signed up 4 more players and is still bent on strengthening the team. He has added Bruce Jackson, left helper and Brooks pitcher. Harris pitched 9 great innings Sunday. A home run by Simpson, 2 baggier by Wilson and good fielding by Savage featured the session. More good, men are expected in with the Giants arriving from Japan. A letter from Pillman to his cousin Mr. Reed, co-partner with Mr. Jasper, tells of a victorious tour in the Flowery Kingdom. Phil, Giants Heroes in Japan It says that great crowds applaure and honors them all over the island. They played 20 games and lost only one. They left Japan on May 26th, will play 5 games in Honolulu and arrive in Los Angeles on June 19th. The boys are all well and have had a wonderful time. Sunday's box score follows: Jaspers All Stars— Green, 2b A B R H O A E Adams, 1b 3 3 1 2 3 0 Savage, 1f 5 0 1 3 0 0 Wilson, cf 3 2 2 1 0 0 Evere, rf 4 1 1 0 0 0 Simpson, 3b 4 1 1 0 4 0 Slaten, a 4 1 1 1 5 1 Killingworth, c 4 0 1 4 1 0 Nichols, p 0 0 0 0 0 0 Harris, p 4 1 1 0 0 0 Young Sam Langford, George Tittington's glove, throwing star and Baby Joe Gans the super-clever philp of Cherokee Tom Scott are at the 160th infantry Armory as we go to press howing the big audience what credit they can reflect on their managers and rainsers. These two boys step it in lightning 4-round exhibition that is worth going miles to see. Bobby Pierce who is another, topnotcher with a world of science and immy Harris a very good match are boxing another four-round exhibition or the sake of the sick and homeless n the flood district. 1 JAKE KIBRAIN Weight 185 A three-Headed Jinx Was on Chick Suggs Tuesday Night FOUGHT GAMEST IN HILL BATTLE SEEN IN YEARS Chick Sugars the wonderful boy who holds the featherweight crown of New England does not want any alibi made for his loss to Bad Taylor, the best, tastes, hardest-hitting little blonde demon he has met for a long time. No alibi but we will tell the reason why the great New England boy lost as he did. THAT go on around the streets, nouses and cabarets? Many a ring battle has been fought; many a baseball, or football game played; many a race run; on the night or a couple of nights before the event. IF I should tell, the fans and admirers who "go to the bat" for their favorite would lose confidence in them, and many a match would remain unsigned. I won't tell; not yet—but listen— THIS is for any athlete—but principally for boxers, as they need every ounce of strength and stamina; it especially for colored boxers, for the doors are not as wide open to you as to some other races. A BOXER'S career is very short, just a few years at best. It would be a whole lot better for you and your friends if you live clean; fight hard, and fair and make the best of it while at or near the top; then after you quit the game, go in for the good times and the pleasures that take the fight out of you. You can't fight in the ring and out of it. Old Time Ring Battles to be Told by 'Pop' Barret and Joe Soto Joe Soto, one of the old bare-knuckle fighters who came along in the days when men were men and money was small who won a lot of fame since as a teacher not only of boxing but of fencing and cornet playing, will run a series of articles about the old time boxing, and will also be a coer Jackson, Joe fans, and others. Pop Barret who won many honors back in the days when you had to alp around to get to fight in the woods and stables will run a very interesting series of articles beginning with one about a battle of his in which they an from one Sherif all night only to run into another Sherif and the big surprise that followed.

They will have a special train compo- sed of about 7 or 8 cars; however, about 3 of the cars will be occupied by fam- ous moving picture stars. The special this year will be gone 17 days and is chartered for the round trip. After the convention they will come back through Canada. As far as could be learned there were only three Port- ters lined up to go as we go to press. They are Daddy Prescott, S. H. Bur- nett. The names of the full crew will be published next week. The writer will take his three squares a day at home this year as he knows the Shriners Blues by heart. One more victim of the grim reaper, Death, was added to the list last week when Lee Evans, Santa F Dining Car Waiter, died while he was enroute to the Santa F Hd hospital on a special train, which was bringing the injured persons from the wreck of the California Limited. The wreck occurred last week when the big tourist rush was started for the East. The second section of the California Limited crashed into the rear end or the first section injuring many railroad employees and passengers.

That was the way the Arcade Red Caps under the able supervision of Fountain Brown, Alvin Spivey and Capt. Grady Howard handled the big tourist rush on the twenty-second. The foremost leaders in the grip-hustling game had their men all diked up with white ties, and every uniform looked like it just came out of the tailor shop. We commend them for the nearest showing of any like group in the state of California. Facts About Southern Pacific lines has been a succession of engineering achievements. Some of these which have attracted world attention include the Ogden to Lincoln, Utah, 103 miles long and crossing Great Salt Lake; the line over the Siskiyou; the Teachacha loop, where track doubles over itself, between Bakersfield and Mojave on the San Joaquin, Vallejo; the double track over the Sierra Nevada; the mountain ascent north of San Louis Obispo on the Coast line and the natron cut-off but recently completed, which provides an alternate main line between San Francisco and Portland and will open up a virgin territory in Oregon.

Ponder is Found Alive, Skiff Skimmer Entrant Discovered While the whole world has been awoken with stoked breath and on needles and plus to hear about the outcome of Ponder's skirmier summer, the outcome of Ponder was last seen in the city of Leake's Lake, one of our operatives was going over the grounds on the West Side where Ponder was sighted once before and was about to give up in despair, when, all or a sudden the lid of a man-hole in the middle of the street was raised up and, first, a skiff came out. Our operative hid behind a tree and watched with his sharp eyes what would follow next and behind, up comes PONDER in a green and yellow bathing suit. When he was approached by our operative and asked what he had been so long, and also informed of the fact that the ays of the world were eagerly looking the newspapers, over for his whereabouts and training grounds. He assured him in his most dignified manner that he had been training for the past two weeks in the West Jefferson storm drain where he would be unnoticed, and with a shake of his glox head he went rapidly down the street with his skiff, back an eager crowd behind his heels, mouthing praise to their hero till he was gone.

It has been rumored that they will introduce the new type bed spring mattresses on that train.

Finley Wilson for a three-day session last week for their usual program incidental to the National Convention. They were the guests of Washington Lodge No. 6, and Polar Wave Lodge No. 112. The sessions permitted ample time for entertainment features. The convention was called to order last Sunday by President Count Wilkinson of Gnawa, Nebraska; John A.

C, June 2.—What Mrs. H. A. Pickett thought was a tornado stirring her house, proved to be a high-powered automobile over which the driver had lost control and which ploughed through the wall of her frame house into the room where she was sleeping. Gould Peters, the driver of the car, declared that he lost control of the car as he attempted to make a sharp curve and the car crashed through the fence and into the house. He is being held for reckless driving, but Mrs. Pickett thinks the charge should be "wreckless driving" Strike Reacts On Fisk Test For Negroes Boston, Mass., June 2.—Rev. Paul E. Baker, chaplain of Fisk University, Southern White Texan, and director of the Fisk $100,00 drive, started 400 hearers at the Ebenezer Baptist Church last night as he paraphrased in the first person, "Our hopes," "our dreams," "our cause," with the twang of a highly educated southern man, so many and straightforward was his plan for the school's and the race's cause he left the impression he was just another Afro-American who could "pass" if he only would. Mr. Baker's real identity was revealed only in private interview, Championing the Negroes' cause and being a modernist, he is a double flare in the face of southern white opinion. The chaplain spoke in the absence of Dr. Thomas Elza Jones, who because of conflicting dates, could not appear in Boston at the time. The Fisk Jubilee Octette sang. "There is a situation at Fisk which colored people themselves must solve. White northern philanthropists have decided the students are a bunch of high nose Bolshevists and have withdrawn support. The white people of the South have lost all interest in Negro education. They say if colored people fail to finance their own educational institutions, they are unworthy of educational benefits," Mr. Baker said. "For every dollar the colored people give to Fisk the General Educational Board will give twelve. If Negroes will give $100,000 Fisk will be a university second to none in the country. A graduate, school, law school, pre-medical studies and a school of Commercial training to meet the needs of rapidly growing Negro wealth of the south is planned." "$22,000 have already been raised, Negroes contributing $30,00 of this sum," he concluded. Six hundred dollars in cash and pledges were given by those present. The Fisk singers, Messrs. Jones and Baker, will be in New England seven days. They have sung and broadcast their appeal over the radio on many occasions. Success is assured here, they say. Kansas People Grateful To Pickens PICKENS TOLD, KANSAS UNIVERSITY WHAT WAS IN COLORED HEART (By The Associated Negro Press) Lawrence, Kansas, June 2.—Thep couple of the entire state of Kansas and particularly of this community in which the University of Kansas is located, are expressing themselves appreciatively of the recent visit which William Pickens made here, during which he addressed the students and teachers of the university. For several years since Kansas University has been filling up the southern students and southernized teachers, racial feeling has been growing and many efforts have been made, it is said especially under the present chancellor, to limit and circumscribe the privileges or the colored students. Pickens talked plainly to them. He was billed to talk on "The New Negro." He talked about every kind of Negro and white man, too. He scouted, and he prejudiced if damentally inherent. Among other things he said: "Because we had 250 years of color-slavery in America, we developed a color-pachyosis, such as they have now where else in the world, unless it be South Africa. In Europe they did not have color slavery; they had a thousand and years of class-slavery. Therefore they developed a class-pachyosis instead of a color-pachyosis. In European countries they felt just as certain that it would ruin the world forever to educate the peasants as they now feel in Mississippi that it will ruin the world to educate Negroes. They have also had international jealousies and grumples so long in Europe that they have another variety of butt stubs in short: we have one kind of foolishness in America, and they have another variety of the same foolishness in Europe." There was a lot of other PLAIN TALK. The colored people and colored students in the audience say that it was the most talk ever given there, and that it did not offend. Many questions were asked in the question per- success in getting over to the white people of the country his straight from the shoulder argument, that there are many who wish that h might do more of just the kind of thing, rather than confining more of his time to colored audiences. There is little question but that Mr. Pickens "gets the Negro view-poin acres."

HOUSTON MAMIE V. WHITE JIMMIE SMITH DR. S. S. TURNER LOUIS W. TENNETTE HENRY FORD TO MARKET NEW CAR BY: E. L. DORSEY Henry Ford, the father of the automobile industry, the one person that has made it possible for the poor, the masses to own an automobile, the man that has given employment to thousands and made millions that the public don't begrudge is to market a brand new automobile to supplant his time-honored pioneer motor car that has blazed the trail for all makes and models. The Ford has been and is today the best buy in the market for the money. From time to time improvements have been made. Many changes have taken place, but in the main the motor proper has never received any great radical changes so well designed was it at the outset. Many cars that today bear the name chosen for them 15 or 20 years ago have had so many radical changes in them that the only thing the public might recognize today is the name. And now the auto industry and the auto public in fact the world stands at attention with its mouth wide open, its eyes in a stary gaze looking at the delivery dept of the Ford Motor Car Co. of Detroit that it might get a peep at this new motor mystery the captain of auto industry is about to roll out. THE OBJECT The chief object as has been generally understood is to meet the fast growing competition in the very large field of cheap cars that have begun to reduce Ford sales. The reduction in sales has been nothing serious thus far. But Ford success lies in the fact that he never waits for conditions to become serious, he meets them in advance. The new animal is to be clothed in a 3-speed transmission along with many new features that will make it attractive from a sale standpoint. Better material and the price as usual cheaper than the cheapest. August is the time for this debut of this new automotive creature and it has begun to look as if there will be something doing. THROWING STONES Small boys in the habit of throwing stones and other objects at passing motorists are warned by California Chauffeurs Club of the dangers attending this act. In addition to the direct pain or injury caused by being struck with stones or hard objects the club points out that a motorist thus attacked may easily lose control of his car and inflict severe personal and property damage. The club asks teachers, parents, and others concerned to impress upon the adolescent minds under their guidance the seriousness of this situation. BY: OSCAR H.

Warning the California, public against a threatened invasion of "gyp" motor club promoters of the type who have invaded the East and Middlewest fleeing unspecting motorists, white and colored, garage and notelmen of their hard-carned dollars by selling membership in tacticics or unstable organizations the Eastside Auto Dealers Association advances the following infiation: "During the past three years, particularly in the East and Middlewes dishonest and unscrupulous promoters have been organizing under the guise (1 automobile clubs, corporations formed solely for profit, in contrastation to the non-stock, non-profit public service organisations known as legitimate automobile clubs. Claiming to give various discounts on automotive necessities, toow service, insurance service, legal counsel, touring information and other privileges, they are able to sell "memberships" to motorists, garage and hotel men. "High pressure" salesmen are employed to sell the con- One dealer recently discovered that he has taken in the same old wreck seven times on new cars. Apparently the old car, after being sold by him to a junk man or a dealer in used cars, has been sold again to some new car prospect and then brought around to the dealer for a trade-in. The Kansas City Motor Car Dealers' Association then decided it was time to get into action and the new corporation is the result. The dealers heretofore have been selling old cars to junk dealers only, to see some of the wrecks patched up and brought back on more new deals. It had been a challenge, it had little success, but the dealers of motor cars borrowed old buildings from junk dealers. It offered more for the old car than the junk man's price the loan was the junk man's price the loan was changed into a purchase.

Big salaries are paid the promoters. The club agrees to give the promised service but stipulates in fine type in the various contract forms used that the club or its officers shall not be held liable for the failure to render service. When the membership drive is over and the funds collected are safely tucked away in the pockets of the promoters, the 'club' fails and the members' are left holding the sack. "Up to this year we have not had any 'gyp' club schemes in California, but it is not unlikely that a number of promoters whose activities have been curtailed or completed in other places, may decide to cultivate this territory, which is as yet virgin ground for this type of scheme. "The Eastside Auto Dealers Association warns motorists of this province to beware of motor clubs of vague origin, especially in the smaller communities, where they often seek to victimize uninformed persons." SLEEPING WHILE THE SUN SHINES Elsinore, Wake Up! Several years ago a group of colored citizens came into possession of a valuable piece of lake frontage property at Elsinore. The location is ideal in every respect. The motoring public have more than shown the owners their appreciation by liberally patronizing same but for some invisible reason aide from acquiring this site the owners have made no improvements to justify the patronage of a hungry motoring public with the exception of building one or two stuccos. The hundreds who visit there when ever the occasion arises would gladly pay five times the present price of admission for at least the enjoyment of ordinary accommodations. LOSING MONEY Thousands of dollars are being lost annually by this splendid body of men who seemingly lack the foresight of knowing what to do or how to manage and improve the situation. Ten or fifteen thousand dollars improvements would make such an investment more than worthwhile and the public is entitled to it. The money could be raised by club membership or a loan, or an admission budget. Gentlemen, you have the sight, improve it! Make it worthwhile and you have a mint. Fifty or a hundred outing tents with wooden flooring; sanitary conveniences for both men and women; a modern restaurant; special parking accommodations; a small administration building or pavilion; later on a hotel, would at least improve present conditions. A little grass and a few flowers artistically arranged with laid-off driveways and' walks would work wonders. The same folk that now are forced to spend eight hours there owing to limited accommodation facilities would spend in many instances one, two or three weeks, and no doubt a month or two, to say nothing of week-ends. The public is willing to pay. Improve this wonderful sight, give them something to pay for. We want to see an Elnoreln that will start the country talking.

Eubanks, President of the Board of Education. The monument is a replica of the famous Keck Memorial at Tuskegee Institute, representing the great educator as removing the veil of ignorance from the eyes of a Negro kneeling at his feet. It is considered one of the finest works of art in America. The erection of the monument was conceived by Principal Harper and was achieved through his uniting efforts, in which he had the co-operation and financial support of white and colored citizens and the City Board of Education. It is said that this is the first instance in the history of the South in which a memorial to a Negro leader has been erected on public grounds. Tuskegee Institute was represented at the unveiling by Dr. G. Lake Imes and A. J. Neely. Col. Joseph H. Wand, Commandant of Tuskegee Veterans hospital, was present also.

And that record is largely due to the unfagging energy, public spirit and broad-gauge efficiency of its retiring president, Robert A. Odell. Six years ago, Mr. Odell was first elected to the board and for four years he has presided over its deliberations and activities for the betterment of our Los Angeles schools. He leaves the board with the splendid score to its credit of having made our educational system in this city one acknowledged to have no superior in the whole United States. Not without struggle, hard work and a conscientious devotion to duty was result achieved. In the last six years the needs of the children have grown even more rapidly than the needs of the city at large and to meet the increasing demand for school accommodation, sufficient and suitable supplies and equipment and to provide a staff of competent teachers and officials has been a job for a strong caliber, four-square man of affairs. Our city was fortunate in procuring the services of such a practical idealist as Mr. Odell during the onerous period through which the development of our school system has just been passing. The Board of Education has ing program to meet our educational demands and it is to their credit that the taxpayers received 100 cents in value for every dollar of money expended on new school structures. do its work.

It was then that Mr. Odell sent forth the now famous alton, "Keep politics out of the schools"; it was the close co-operation of the board and its president that rendered the slogan effective. The soundness of this American program was fittingly proven by the results of the late May primary and the popular endorsement of the candidates approved by the Citizens' School Committee. It was with extreme regret that our people heard of Mr. Odell's resolution, through the pressure of his business affairs, to retire from the board at the conclusion of his term of office. We have too few men as capable and as devoted as he, willing to serve the public as he has served it. His friends and associates al hope that at some future time he will again be able to give the city the benefit of his sturdy qualities and tested experience.—Los Angeles Times, May 7, 1927. Mrs. Rilda Phoenix, well known pioneer of Los Angeles died Friday, May 25th, 9:00 a.m., after an illness of several years duration. The funeral was held Tuesday of this week at the First A. M. E.

In some cases he is begging his white friends to let him be an American, because he loves the United States better than he does his Heaven. "Let him who would be free first strike the blow." Truly the Black Man is struggling, but unless he is struggling to free himself from his own mythical ideals based upon his delusion of race inferiority engendered in his many years of chattel slavery he is struggling in vain. A man may be held prisoner for a goodly number of years, but he is never a slave unless he himself admits that he is mentally inferior to others. In our study of race conditions here and elsewhere we are inclined to believe that the Black Man is more susceptible to environment than the white man, but this plastic, mental attitude is not argument in favor of mental inferiority, but rathmental superiority. Hence, we cannot intelligently escape the idea that full and lasting freedom for the Black Man in this Country depends upon his own mental development, and not upon any cringing, cowering attitude upon his part, that suggests that he is patiently waiting at the white man's mercy seat for his change.

Somewhere in this vast and diversely-born people there is the binding loyalty of a great common service. If for the many the day has become merely a release from labor, an occasion for self-amusement, it remains for millions of homes a tender retrospect, sanctified by service and crowned by the immortal fulfilment of complete sacrifice. Turning to gaze down the years of this nation's story, the people see how vast that army is that gave itself. It discovers the dim figures of those who fought the fight in the Civil war, and the even dimmer forms of those who died to give birth to a new liberty. It recognizes with instant vision the wounds left by the World War and numbers on its farms, in its homes and in its shops the great roster of those who have gone to join the bivouac of the dead. And yet another army—undistinguished, unremarked, perhaps forgotten except in that intimate family circle where memory never dies—the army of those who wore no uniform, carried no weapon, but in civil employment as surely and as bravely surrendered their lives to the public service and added their unnoticed greatness to the sum of national character. The flags and the flowers will show the story. But the real significance dwells in the life of this people, whose days are richer and happier for the sturdy, unselfish devotion which keeps not merely the flag flying but sustains vital and quick that for which the flag is the symbol. For these are the ones who builded the nation for our inheritance; the soldiers and sailors, the marines and volunteers, the clerks and the workers of post office and government department, all those of loyal heart and devoted service, of all ranks and origins, of all races and ages, of all degrees of fame and obscurity—a misty, gallant, self-forgetful army, who have left in our hearts the honor they guarded and increased. The road lies open this day; the fairways are green, the rivers sparkling; even so, remembrance must be our companion and, perhaps, our impulse to renewed patriotism of the kind that adds to the nobility of our heritage. Along with June roses and June nual crop of good advice to graduate The world receives its yearly accession sters with somewhat the same sense responsibilities that it feels for the ba out of school are born again to new an experience, and the world is anxious a What should seem simpler then t delegate its successful ones to give the new-comers Pass the word along to t seeded; tell them how you did it. T or would be if it were taken so earnl Along with June roses and June weddings comes the annual crop of good advice to graduates. "Success" is the topic. The world receives its yearly accession of school-trained youngsters with somewhat the same sense of hopes and fears and responsibilities that it feels for the babies. The boys and girls out of school are born again to new and enlarged phases of life experience, and the world is anxious about them. What should seem simpler then than that the world should delegate its successful ones to give the formula of success to the new-comers Pass the word along to the novices; you have succeeded; tell them how you did it. The result is disappointing or would be if it were taken seriously. The oldheads can't tell the beginners the how. They themselves know very well how little of their achievement came about by their own efforts; how much was due to an admixture of chance, of favorable circumstances and boosting of others. There is no specific direction making straight the road to success. The elders never can persuade the boys and girls at commencement that they are to tread paths marked with footprints. The optimistic, eager, adventurous spirits, who for a whole year have been accustomed to the dignity of being called "seniors," are bent on nothing less than the conquests of new worlds. Commencement means to commence, not to finish. It is well. The wisest who have lived have not made the world what it ought to be. The job has not been very well done. Take a chance on the "commencers." There is much that needs commencing. We need better cities and better farms, better government and better citizens; better business and better recreation, better industries and better arts—in the whole category of what has been accomplished there is nothing that could not be better. Turn the graduates loose without too much hampering advice. After all, each must create his world for himself. WE REMEMBER COMMENCERS MUSIC AND ART HAROLD BRUCE FORSYTHE Some time ago, I published, in the decaying pages of the now detunct "Outlet", a melancholy article wherein I lamented the painful fact that the Negro, as a Race is no more basically a music lover than an Esquimo. Of course the editor received many letters denouncing me again and the wise elder ones predicted that as I aged an mellowed my opinion would inactivate. Several years have elapsed since that time, and instead of undergoing the predicted change, I find my opinion only the more firmly rooted. The reasons for this are as patent as they are simple and plain. No Race of people can be grabbed by the coat-tails and tossed into the pot and be catalogued as music lovers, any more than they can be pigeonholed as bootleggers. We have our fair share of both, but we have a tremendous majority interested in neither. The basic causes of the widespread delusion that the Negro has "music in his blood," seems to find source in two institutions: Jazz, and the Spirituals. Or the former, let me say that it is not music at all, and comes into no consideration in this department, and of the latter, that the rhythmic impulse far overshadows the implied harmony and the melody. of course Burleigh, Gulon, Fisher, Dett, Johnson, Diton and others have dressed them up—sometimes in ultra-sophisticated clothing, but even in formal dress I see nothing marvelous about these Spirituals. These Spirituals are overestimated. They in no way deserve the lavish dithyrams that have been written of them. True, they are often beautiful and emotional, but they do not by any means comprise the world's best folk music. They lack the depth, the restlessness, the wild abandon of the Russian folk songs, and the piquancy of the Viennese. Nor are the Negro Spirituals the only characteristic music of America. Remember the Indian! Nor are they purely Negro More than one student has claimed Caucasian influence in them. All peoples have their folk music, and the simple fact does not make them music lovers. For crude folk songs, I, for one, refuse to recognize as real music. We await, however, a Glinka to pull the cork out of the keg and let us view the gold within, if any. So fare we have had only experimental tappings. It is impossible for a musical illiterate to be a music lover. For a perplexed musician, the churchcomponites lie to pretend love for Wagner is obviously ridiculous. It would be just as difficult to find a ley Negro who could tell Debusy's Le Aperidis Midl D' Un Faun from Bach's C Minor Chaconne, as it would be to find a white man who could distinguish between an acciacature and a chord or the second. There is no unpleasant thing as a music loving race: There are only music loving individuals. The esteemed critic, Henry T. Kinch in a very instructive if sometimes nonsensical book, "Songs and Song Writers" docs some very interesting things. He gives Schubert his just deserts, as Franck, Johann and Tennent also gets their, Brahms is roundly exacerbated -Kinch is an anti-Brahmsian—while Grieg has a large amount of space. Chaminade? and Holmes both draw attention, albeit not very flattering; but the crowning embecciality of the entire book is the fact that Kinnack has entirely forgotten Debussy! I was amazed. But it is a sad truth. Debussy, despite Fink's frank ignoring of him, is a marvelous song writer. Look at his setting of Verlaine's L'Ombre Des Arbres! Here is a song obviously not for philistines. How elusive, how ethereal, how gorgeously shifting is the tonality. How the emotion is perfectly balanced between the voice and planoforte. Read that wondrous chord that opens-measure 21! And see how skilfully Debussy returns to C sharp major. True, it has its cliche. Measure two deprives from Chopin's second prelude, but coming, in G major, as it does, after a measure in C sharp major, it is both daring and plquant. It is a marvelous song. And the great critic, Mr. Finck, entirely ignores him. I now begin to arrese with Mr. H. L. M. in his opinion of Mr. Finck. Ministers' Alliance Endorses Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters At the regular meeting of the Inter- nominational Alliance, Monday, May 3, the following resolution offered by the Welfare Committee was adopted: The Interdenominational Minister's Alliance, hereby whole-heartedly en- touches the movement of Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and wish them god's speed in their efforts for "a living wage and better working conditions." Many of the members of the Alliance had previously endorsed the Porters' movement and a number have manned pulpit and other expressions r. support, reports Geo. S. Grant, Sec- cretary-Treasurer, who adds that the movement all over the country has been greatly assisted by the progres- sive ministry who realize the importance of the economic as well as the spiritual welfare. HAWKS HANDS RAISE UP! RAISE UP!! Officers Davis and Kelly were passing by 1665 Essex St., thinking of how quiet and law-abiding everybody seemed in the neighborhood when they heard the cry: "Raise up! Raise!" Now, in the underworld parlance, 'raise up' means stop gambling right now, there's cops in sight. So the officers took him in on for being a look-out man and left the gamblers in the mercies of the vice squad. NONE OF YOR D——D BUSINESS PRISONER TELLS OFFICERS Tom West was arrested at thirty-first and Central Ave, at 11:00 o'clock on Sunday night-by officers who noticed him reeling drunkenly along the sidewalk. Later on arrival at the Newton St. Station he was asked his name: "None of you d——d business," he rourged, "you cops is too d——d smart. I am a law-abidin' citizen an' I don't have to tell my name." Upon investigation it was learned that he was not a citizen but arrived here from Canada. He was locked up under charges of drunkenness and resisting an officer. BROKE ALL TRAFFIC LAWS BROKE ALL TRAFFIC LAWS A brand new set of traffic laws will have to be drawn up for John Ward, Carson Carew and the brokes broke just about every law on the book of traffic legislation including he newest one, allowing 40 miles an nour on an open highway. NEWTON ST. FREIERS IN A WILD RIDE PREVENT MURDER IN STARBING AFEAR **STABBING APART** Quick response, by officers Broady, Maxwell and Martin who raced from Newton Station to 5533 Long Beach at 12:30 the other night prevented what would have been an offender from being a murder by arriving before the attacker, a Mexican, Frank Romero could finish his murderous job. Arriving just as Romero ran out they found that he had driven a dirk into his ablomen of A. P. Valencia, a boy or 22 years of age. He had gone to the house of his estranged wife, Maria Romero and effecting an entrance vowed he was going to kill her, his step-daughter, Dora Lopez and all in the family. The boy, Valencia, a friend of Mrs. Romero's crippled son, attempted to interfere and the man who had kept his dagger concealed meantime, made a sudden lunge, stabbing him deeply before he could void him. One of the girls ran to his phone during the altercation and called the station, but though the officer gave chase and combed the neighborhood, Romero escaped for he time being. The boy was rushed o the receiving hospital. CLAIMED DIME. DISOWNED BRASS KNUCKS "It's a hot night," said officer Kelly o Officer Davis his partner as they atroiled the vicinity of 18th and Exe. "That fellow doesn't seem to think o answered Davis, pointing out a blinking figure muffled up in a heavy wavetrook. On "skaking him down" a pair of brass knuckles' and a dime were discovered reposing side by side in the avernous pocket of his overcoat. "What are you carrying these trucks for?" asked the officers. They ain't my knuckles," he answered, but the dime is. I borrowed this coat and if there's knuckles in it he owner must have left, them in here." But the tale failed to convince judge Richardson next morning. He answered of Billy Harris and arresting Officers Kelly and Davis testified they had observed him acting suspiciously. OFFICERS CORALL "BEEF TRUST" A meeting of "the beef trust" was what it looked like to officers Church and others who swooped down on the party at 953 Birch. Among the women gathered there most of them weighed over 200 pounds. Clara Stephenson and "Sweet A line". Foster were joked for vagance and lewd. SAID HE ONLY SAMPLED CALI FORNIA "HOOTCH" FORNIA **HOOTCH** Julianne Moore just arrived here from Illinois long ago, yet at drunk and at arrested at 10th and San Pedro by Sergt. Fisher and Officer Thomas. Moore testified that this California "hootch" has a new elusive and seductive flavor, so in sampling the various brands of mochisine in the California sunshine the combination had proven so much for him and made him dizzy. Fearing mob violence, National Guardmen were stationed in and around the courthouse during the trial and troops patrolled the streets to prevent any outbreak. This precaution was taken by the local authorities because Tuesday several prominent Negro business and professional men received letters advising them to leave town at once, if they did not want to be arrested. If they felt uneasy feeling aroused when the crime was discovered. The Spring Prolic gives last week by the Bachelor Club was a very only affair, and delightfully different REFUIL Another large element in these arrests, has been "crap-shooters", who are for the most part, the same people, and who after arrests are made, are made to furnish a high ball, which they cannot always do, and who on pleas or guilty, are fined $5.00 to $10.00, and accept the situation as the easiest means out. Another element of these 3,088, are the women accused of violation of the morals law, who, when fined or released from fall, so it is repeatedly said, have been followed home and re-arrested by Sheffield and Randolph, in order to swell their record of arrests. It is common knowledge, so I am informed, that Sheffield and Randolph have urged and persuaded persons whom they have arrested to accept a plea of guilt, and for this they would urge; a very small fine or a suspended sentence. The eleven per cent of those arrested, who were not convicted in Court, would amount to over 300 of the total arrests, and we have reason to believe that it about 50 per cent more had been possessed of sufficient funds, or knowledge of the situation, to have resisted the charges, they, too, would not have been convicted. We say this, because men have been picked up by them for no other offense than being on the street near 12th and Central, or loafing in a pool hall, or for being seen on the streets late at night. In all of these cases, the officers are the first to shout "suspended sentence" in the Court, and what is more deplorable, in two instances that are reliably reported to the judge. In the investigation have found that the investigation offered against the accused by these men was wholly untrue, and in one instance they have been severely rebuked by the Court for offering false testimony. Certain it is, that if the 135 men on the vice-squad, (if that is the number), had at all equalled the record of these two men, which you point out, then about 614,195 persons per period would be arrested by the vice-squad, and we venture to say that your records do not reveal the arrest of any such number of people per annum at all, and it therefore remains that the activities of these men have not only been noticeable because of the large number of arrests they have made, but every corroboration is given the universal and city wide charges and complaints, that they themselves violate the law in making these arrests; have glorified in; have bill-dozed and terrorized people in making them; have been guilty of brutality, and have arrested people needlessly whether or not they saw them committing misdemeanors, in order to produce this record which you point to with pride. It is said that these men have been none too ostensible themselves in going about their police duty, and we note with interest that you have been arrested personally used of felonies but numbers were given by you in that regard, and we are told by those able to do, that they have yet to detect any person in the commission of a felony, or to arrest a person for a felony, except upon a warrant issued upon the vigilance and the efficient police duties of other officers, and never as a result of their wintive in detecting or ferreting out those who have committed a major crime. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is engaged in seeking to promote the orderly process of punishment for crimes and has always been, and will always be, a bitter enemy to law violation. Our fight in the past has been largely against the "volunteer," and we are in to may that we consider shemelf and Randolph, a "mob" unto himself, and their tactics for the most part have been that of "the rob." We shall always gladly cooperate with you in the enforcement of the law, and have the highest respect for the police department and its officers, and for you as its head. We are proud to say that there has always been, with the exception of these two officers, the heartiest cooperation between the Colored people and the Police Dept., in the enforcement of the law. We are proud of all police who so their duty in an orderly and humane manner, and we are just as insignificant at the conduct of these two men, as we are proud of all the other officers, some 2500 in number, who are conducting police business in this city is an easy matter to create aiment against what is often the "undertow" and has been, from our way out, taken to an extremely easy thing for two officers to arrest people who because of poverty or lack of influence and standing, have stood practically helpless before their brutal assaults and ruthless attacks, and then unwarranted arrests, and thus the background has been created for an enormously high record of arrests, upon which to base a charge that all if these arrested people whether guilty or innocent are "their bitter enemies." The bad thing about it is, these men make people who are thus wrongly treated, enemies of law enforcement agencies needlessly so. We hold no brief for violators of the law, whether it be members of the police or beheaded and Ranaldoph. We make no comment about the killing of Sam Funklner, because that matter is now before our Courts or determination, and in justice to them, and to ourselves, we leave the settlement of that killing to a jury of their peers. In conclusion, we wish to say that what we have said herein, and what we have done in regard to these two alarms has been done in a degree to make it possible, that the attitude of all persons toward law enforcement, what it should be.

MOORE ---From The--- Sixth Councilmanic District —INCLUDING— Venice - Mar Vista - Barnes City ELECTION JUNE 7th Endorsed By All Of Our Oranizations (Continued from Page One- Portraits by Masters In the art gallery are principally portraits painted by English masters of the last century, among them Gainsborough, Romney and Reynolds. There are also a number of famous landscapes. The art gallery, which is in the library, goes to the public, along with the library. Among the new items in the library besides the priceless Gutenberg Bible are the original journal of Christopher Columbus, giving accounts of his voyage of discovery to America in 1492; first edition of comedies and tragedies of Shakespeare. The library also has several original manuscripts in the handwriting of Charles Dickens, the largest collection in the world or the personal letters of Abraham Lincoln, in the Civil War president's own handwriting; many letters from Mary, Queen Scots to her son, who became King James I; and sides numbers of other letters and documents and manuscripts bough by Mr. Huntington in intensive search through the world. Bare Manuscript Many notable additions were made to the library when Mr. Huntington purchased through George D. Smith of New York the famous Bridgewater library of England. In this library was "The Canterbury Tales" or the "Ellesmere Chaucer," illuminated on vellum. The manuscript, undated, is said to have been written about 1405, and had been in possession of the Bridgewater and Ellesmere families for more than 200 years. Brought by Huntington, a nephew of the famous Collis P. Huntington, the railroad magnate, was born in Oneonta, N. Y., Feb 27, 1850. His father was Solon Huntington, and his mother's maiden name was Harriet Sounders. Began as a Merchant Young Huntington was educated in the public schools of New York, and began his business career as a hardware merchant in Oreonea. In 1873 he married Mary E. Presnice, and worked in St. Albans, W. Va., in the years 1874-1880. He became superintendent of construction of the Chesapeake, Ohio & Southwestern railroad in 1880, and rose gradually until 1890, he became president of the Kentucky Central railroad. As first assistant to the president of the Southern Pacific, he first came to the Pacific Coast in 1892, Shortly after 1900, he became interested in municipal transportation and was connected with the Cable Car Co. of San Francisco. He also was instrumental in forming the Pacific Electric system and in developing the present extended ramifications of that line throughout Southern California. Public Utility Work His financial interests were not confined to transportation properties, however. He was also chairman of the board of the Newport News, Va. Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Co. the Hammond Lumber Co. of Los Angeles, the Huntington Land and Improvement Co. or Los Angeles, and numerous other organizations of important commercial character, all of them dealing with public utilities and closely related supply sources. Mr. Huntington's aspect as a financier and community builder and de- eloper was completely obscured during the last 10 years of his life by his generous donations to the world of science and art, and by the intense interest he took in those branches of human activity. Priceless Collection Although his activities as a financier and builder of railroads and fortunes placed Mr. Huntington in position to buy the rare pictures and manuscripts which are for sale everywhere in the world, he went at the business of collecting books and rare objects of art with the patience and taste of a professional virtuoso. Consequently his collection of Americana and of books is rated with the best in the world. Among the books he possessed is Guttenberg Bible, a first quarto of "Hamlet" and countless other price-less volumes. His collection of manuscripts includes a freshly discovered series of documents from the archives of the Spanish conquerors of Peru and Mexico and a hologram by Benjamin Franklin of his autobiography. Among his pictures is the famous Gainsborough "Blue Boy," which he purchased at a price of $250,000. His private library, which contained his collection of Americana and books was recently presented as a gift to the "people of the world," and a board of trustees formed to care for it and continually captureasures from a curator created by Mr. Huntington for that purpose. The monetary value of the library is difficult and perhaps impossible to fix, it is declared by bibliophiles and collectors. Host to Notables Mr. Huntington's large estate at San Marino, fronting on Huntington boulevard, has been often the scene of entertainments to many foreign and celebrities, the last of whom, Crown Prince-Gustavus Adolphus or Sweden, stayed there several days last summer. The Huntington residence, a large building in the style of the Italian Renaissance and surrounded by one of the choicest collections of trees and shrubbery in the world, contains the library and the enormous collection of old English masters. A portrait of the Horsley children by Maryey, which is said was purchased for $40,000, is one sold of the measures, together with the "Blue Boy." Sir Thomas Lawrence's "Pinkie" was recently purchased, with the Gainsborough portraits of Lady Petre and the Ligoniers, including works by Corot, Harpigny, A large collector of European moderns DieMazzo, Zuloaago, Israel, Mattier and Jules Breton, also a few pieces by Velasquez, was owned by Mr. Huntington.

Watson, veteran race police officer has formally announced that on June 1st, 1927, he will retire to private life after spending more than twenty years with the Los Angeles police department. Watson who is still competitively a young man and capable of rendering valuable service to the city is retiring largely on account of poor health. A serious accident in the traffic some months ago left him unfit for the strenuous duties that befall an officer. We are proud to say that he is leaving the police department with flying colors and many laurels flying from his mast. Officer Watson has the honor of being the first Negro in the state of California to be a police referee, the unform rank of a police department. Prophets in both races have declared that this was a physical impossibility but Watson's life in the department has demonstrated that our group can successfully pursue this profession. This efficient officer has not only made a success in his connection with the police department as a "beat officer" but has made a record for himself and group in other various assignments. For a long time he was at the head of the Vive Squad, known at the time as the Metropolitan Squad and we can say without fear of contradictions that denizens of the underworld both feared and respected him. At the present time Watson is connected with the Newton Street Division from which he will retire. Superior officers of this as well as other divisions will commend him as a con scioncient officer who is both courteous and brave. 1 In an interview Watson stated that his program for the future calls for rest that one needs after a most strenuous life or twenty years. After a rest he further stated that he will seek light employment as it would be impossible for him to be idle. With best wishes for happiness, health and prosperity from his brother officers Allan A. Watson will soon retire to private life from whence he came more than two decades ago. Boston School Bars Colored Students Wilmington, Del., May 23—A Negro student may take "special work" at Miss Farmer's School of "Cookery," located in Boston, Massachusetts, and "sometimes the class is perfectly willing to have a colored student as a member of the class provided the dinner is eaten in different rooms," but it has been found impossible for the institution "to accept as students in the regular classes people of the Negro race," so Miss Mabel C. Bradley of the school faculty informed Miss England in reply to the latter's application for admission to the institution's summer course. Miss Williams is a college graduate and is head of the Domestic Science Department of the Howard High School of this city. Feeling that she wanted to do some special work in cooking she applied for admission to the New England School for the special courses for instructors, during the month of July.

TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH 20th and Nernandle Ave. REV. W. H. M. DICKERSON, Pastor Sunday School 9:30 A. M. Preschool 11 A. M. & 8 P. M. B. Y. P. U. 6:30 P. M. Communion First Sunday (By: A. N. P) ST. LOUIS, Mo., May 14—It was the biggest news story of the year which "broke" on the thirteenth of last January, when after thirteen years of married life, Aaron E. Malone filed a sensational action for divorce against his wife, Anna M. Malone, proprietor of famous Poro College, alleging incompatibility and demanding a half share in the property she possessed and claiming that he had been responsible for her remarkable success. Its finale same this week with his defeat. The Malones had married in 1914 when he, a school teacher and itinerant book agent, had wooed the then Mrs. Pope Turbo, who already had established Poro and was reputedly wealthy, after success continued. The marriage and marriage later she built the present beautiful and luxurious Poro Block, where she employs more than a hundred and fifty young people, who with her branch subagents of her organization are pubered by the thousands. Evidences of what Mrs. Malone's friends term a plot against her began to disclose themselves several years ago. She became aware of them and it finally led to a breach between the husband and wife, which, while they remained under the same roof, because of her respect for convention, left them dwelling apart. Tiring of living up to his abilities by being merely a husband, wearying of fine clothes, travel, cars, and other luxuries at his disposal. Malone surrounded by a group of colored clones became ambitious, it is said, to get possession of Poro. He began to pay politics, allying himself with a faction of the Republican Party, in which one of the bosses was "Eidie" Foristal, the clever and reputedly unrestruprulous lawyer whom later he chose to guide him in this present lawsuit. The Judge before whom the case was brought belonged to the same political faction and those who claim to be able to see through the arrangement declare that the cards were stacked early in the game. For nearly a year, beginning in May, 1926, Foristel worked on the case before it was sprung. Although white, he is known intimately enough by a wide group of colored people, particularly the doctors and lawyers who contact him in the damage suit work which is his chief practice, for then to call him "Biddie." Foristel had the counsel and "assistance according to rumor or a coterie of prominent colored men, cronies of Malone, active among whom were a leading school principal, a local newspaper man, the head of one of the city's largest welfare organizations and three lawyers. These men it is said kept Foristel supplied with inside information needed from a racial point of view, helped Malone prepare his plans, and kept him encouraged in his program. It is commonly reported about St. Louis that this elicite expected to "get well" through jobs, manipulation of contracts and padding pay rolls, alided by the receiver whom it was expected the friendly judge would appoint. The plaat went on according to schedule for a lawsuit. The receiver brought a court appointed a receiver without notifying Mrs. Malone and her attorneys. He marched out to Poro and began to terrorize the employees. Each of the three colored lawyers pleaded to be appointed attorney for the receiver, but a white man, C. S. Snow, got that plum, although one of the lawyers was given some sort of attachment with a title. Things looked bad for Mrs. Malone. The receiver took charge of all her personal property. There were rumors that bode ill for the great Poro. But the plotters had overlooked one important angle. They had not taken into consideration the reaction of Negro America. The citizens of St. Louis rose in a great mass meeting of protest. Leaders of thought and moulders of opinion expressed particularly by the newspapers of the nation were joined by the pulpit, women's chubs, traternal societies and thousands of "just people" in a mighty and audible wave or disapproval. It had been Malone several weeks ago perhaps realizing the impending loss of his foolhardy attempt to pluck his wife of her life's earnings, broke down, and jumped through a window of the home of friends in St. Louis. Since that time, he has been described as in various mental conditions. It is reported from reasonably authentic sources that Malone's haul from his wife's estate is less than $50,000, those in the know setting the cash settlement at $55,000 out of which Forstelir who spent big money fighting the case must be paid. His wife is said to have dictated the terms of the settlement entirely and to have selected whatever properties which were in their joint names that she desired. Malone's claim to partnership had collapsed and he could only contend for the dower right which the law in Middletown allows either a husband or wife in the other's estate. $6,000 was allowed for court and receiver's costs, which will be divided between Faenb, the farmer, hack driver, who became a receiver, his auditor. Edward Raddy. the attorney for the receiver, C. S. Snow, white, and the probably small honorarium which may be given Atzy Silas E. Garner, formerly of Mississippi, the colored attache who was appointed to appease St. Louis violent opposition to a white receiver, but who never got into the picture. Impatient at times because of the slow grinding of the mills of justice, St. Louis and the country at large are now singing the praises of Charles Negel, Mrs. Malone's personal attorney for years, and his firm members, Messrs. Griffin and Kirby. Particularly though they are shouting acclaim for Homer G. Phillip, the fighting lawyer of the "Show Me" state, who entered the fray as associate counsel with the greatest white lawyers of this entire section and by his stolling ability and intelligent co-operation with their respect and admiration. Mr. Phillips' services were particularly valuable. He and Mr. Nagel were the honored guests of the Poro employees organization in a meeting of appreciation. But the most striking feature of the case has been the implicit faith which has characterized Mrs. Malone. Intensely religious, she has constantly said, "I put my faith and this institution in the hands of God. The supplications or the thousands of women who were praying throughout the country for our deliverance were an answered. God helped me build this institution, and I knew I would suffer it to be destroyed or taken from me. Her faith has been justified. The divorce case which will write this to the episode is expelled to be heard in a few weeks. Its terms have already been arranged and Amy Malone and Porsha will indulge free. THE LOUISEIANA STATE CLUB'S FIRST SOCIAL On the evening of Thursday, May 19, the Sojoiner Truth Home was the scene of a happy gathering of over 100 Louisianaians and their friends, attending the first social given by the Louisiana State Club, as a climax to their membership drive. The charm of our western life, augmented by the old southern hospitality, was beautifully portrayed in flowers, music, smiling faces and delicious refreshments; crowning the evening's entertainment with a glowing enthusiasm. Mr. Arthur Reese supervised the very attractive decorations, and Mr. Walter Gordon arranged the delightful program, which was enjoyably supplemented by an orchestra, a surprise feature made possible by Messrs. Eugene Robinson and Jones. Mr. Alien Reese, the president, other officers and committees felt amply compensated for their hearty efforts, when they saw the great appreciation and enjoyment of all present. The contestant, who led in the membership drive will be awarded a prize at the next regular meeting to be held at Wesley Church on Friday, June 10 at S P. M. Hurrah for the Louisiana State Club! Boost and encourage her in her enward march! HELEN S. EDWARDS, Chairman of Publicity. UP-TO-DATE SERMONS BY: C. P. JONES Pastor of Christ's Temple Church 54th and Hooper Ave. "Thy rod read thy staff they comfort me."-Ps. 23. There are lecturers now telling the people that millions now living will never die. The message must be a comforting one to those who can be believe it. And they may be right at that. But there is no man who knows it. It is true that we shall not all sleep, but we all shall be changed in a moment in the twinkling of an eye. "But of that day and of that hour knoweth no man," said the Savior, "not even the Son, but the Father." And if any one should say that we may not know the day and the hour but we may know the times and ses hes, we exact dates being immaterial, the seasons which are known to us. "It is not for you to know the times or the seasons which the Father bath put in his own power." Acts 1:4 Matthew tells us that He said the angels of heaven do not know. Matthew 24:32. Mark tells us that He said not the angels in the heavens nor the Son, but the Father. Mk. 18:32. We are simply exhorted to be ready, for we know not when our Lord cometh. Mat. 24:42. Luke 21:25-36. The date setters and year givers have all always been mistaken and always will be. For as a snare that day shall come upon the earth. Yet God's people will be ready, not because they know day and date, year and time, but because they will be watching and will see the signs when they appear and will know by the Spirit of Day within them. But in the ordinary course of human events, "it is once appointed for man to judge this the judgment." Heb 9:27, 28. It makes no difference what life may have given you, in death you lose it. Your beauty consumes away. Your handmade mass of carrion, and though preserved with the art of the embalmer, yet it is but a useless unattractive cadaver. The animation, the soul, the life, the real attractive part of your being is gone. Your name, what is good is to your? Death destroys all illusions of greatness, destroys every conceit of the mind, takes away all the pleasure of fleshy indulgence, destroys the power of mental pleasure and intellectual stimulation, turns your wealth over, to others, takes your hand from the play, your shoulders from the burdens, your presence from the haunts of men. You are removed from the midst of human affairs. Furthermore, the pain, the groans, the dying strife, the humiliating, miserable ordeal of quitting the body is by no means a pleasant contemplation or happy experience for the soul. Even Jesus cried out in agony. Though some deaths being prolonged, have less agony at the end. But somewhere all have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death. Here is where religion helps, here is where faith proves its value. "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil." There is something to it. I have seen them die, numbers die. I saw a minister's wife dying. She said "O brother Jones, dying is not like talking about it." I saw another die. She had not made the word a source of comfort. She had refused the joy of the Lord. She preferred, while a church worker to be a perpetual faultfinder. She refused to solve the problems of faith in the spirit of truth. And oh with what unspeakable distress she passed through the valley! What terror's Saved I think she was, for she was in many respects a good woman, but she missed the divine presence as she went through the valley of the shadow of death. She feared. And oh I have seen them distressed, distressed, distressed with fears. I have known strong men who despised religion and never entered a church to jump out of the bed and run under it begging to be saved from death. Suicides have gone far enough to taste death. Then they wanted no more of it. King of terrors he is, and he dwells in the valley or shadows. His throne is a pile of bones. Skeleton stands guard. The bats of the pit whir through the gloom with the lonesome sound of unspeakable desolation. He is the greatest enemy of man and the last that shall be destroyed. Stay in his realm and you never know joy again. The wages of sin is death. Sinners are his subjects. They abide in death. They remain in his body. They are citizens of his fire blasted domains. They abide with him forever. THE REGION BEYOND But the Christians home is in a region beyond. Their way lies through the valley of the shadow of death. The highway to eternal life, to eternal glory, to overlasting felicity, to endless delight; the road to the Elysian fields, to the city of pearls and gold, to the deathless land, the painless realm the region of unmarred and unmarable happiness—the road to all this lies right through the valley of the shadow of death. And sometimes the way is long as you pass through. There are deeper and denser and darker places and there are lighter and higher places. And some pass swiftly through and some walk through with lingering and feeble heart but no who are citizens of heaven go through. Some go down the valley and pass on through. Some go down a distance and are called back to finish life's work. These when they come back are the more able to fit others for the journey. Later, they too must go. Put of the delight of knowing that in this dark region the believer who has allowed God to restore his soul and lead him in paths of righteousness, has the presence of God with him. The region is not his home eternal and he knows it. He is passing to the glorious region beyond. He is going on to a better resurrection and a kingdom of glory. And as he goes, though dark it be, he hears a voice of comfort saying, "Fear not I am with thee. Be not dismayed. I am thy God." He does not belong here. He is looking beyond." He is a pilgrim and a stranger. His name is written in heaven. He has the witness in his breast. He both is presence, a shepherd with him, whose rod and staff hold up and spirit and light, and lean on. They have their staff comfort me. I have been in the valley of the shadow many times. So had Paul (I. Cor. 11) before he passed over. In II. Corinthians first chapter he tells us why—that he might be able to comfort those who are in any affliction. We do not taste death, for our Savior delivers The Savior said we 'should not taste it. And we do not. John 11:35, 36; 8:511.53. We pass through the valley. We feel the gloom of the shadow. But we are comforted as we go. Amen. Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thousands have died with this comfort. I have seen them die with halluijals on their lips. Physical distress meant nothing. They were saved. They passed to the region beyond. Judge Caryl Sheldon We urge a unanimous support for Judge Caryl Sheldon for Judge of the Municipal Court at the election on June 7th. Judge Sheldon has been tried and there is no question of his fitness for the position which he seeks. The people of all classes, have always found him fair and square and all persons coming before him are tried upon the merits of the issues at hand and justice is given to all oven-handed. We predict for Judge Sheldon a magnificent victory at the polls on June 11th. Los Angeles patrons in the Tenth District or Tuesday, June 7, will have an opportunity to send to the City Council a resident at Los Angeles for the last forty-one days the taxpayer in the city for more than a year who by sheers ability has risen, like the hero of an Horto Alger story, from a newsboy and bootblack to one of the recognized civic leaders of Los Angeles. He is John G. Todd, who in the early days of the pueblo of Los Angeles, when the sleepy little villages was unable to employ a paid fire department, enlisted in the ranks of the volunteers as soon as he was old enough to run with a hose cart, and who since that time has evinced the same unflagging interest in the progress of the city. Innate ability and an inherent trait for helping those about him brought Mr. Todd up from the ranks of volunteer fireman by successive steps until he became the chief of the department, a position in which he served for many years until his voluntary retirement, his resignation being accepted with regret by the city when he left the department with the good wishes of all those who had served under him. Mr. Todd for many years was engaged in the merchandising business, but he never lost touch with city affairs, of which he has been a deep student for many years. He is now well qualified by experience for a place on the City Council. The future prosperity of Los Angeles will depend largely on the City Council named by the voters at the coming election. Men of business experience and broad vision, men who are able to view a problem from many angles and to decide the answer wisely are needed, and Mr. Todd is an outstanding example of this type of man. In a field of seven candidates at the recent primary, Todd stood second, and was within a few votes of the high man. Since the primary most of the defeated candidates, realizing his ability, have rallied to his support and asked their friends to vote for him at the election Tuesday, June 7, so that his success at the polls is believed to be virtually assured. The sole danger is that his many friends will take his election for granted and fall to vote, and for this reason every friend of good government in the Tenth District is being urged to turn out at the election and to cast a ballot for Mr. Todd, who is being supported by laboring men in general. B. A. MILLER. Elks Arrangements Perfected for Grand Lodge Session in August Headquarters General Committee on Entertainment, New York City.—All arrangements for the entertainment of the Grand Lodge, I. B. P. O. E. of W., have been perfected. The local Entertainment Committee avails the approval of R. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler, before putting the hangers in press. The local committee has been the most representative men of the Race in Harlem. The dispatch and exactness with which plans and contracts have been consummated to make this coming convention in August excel all others of the past, could be achieved only by such sterling men. Past Grand Exalted Ruler, Harry Pace stated before the Grand Lodge that he was going to attend the Grand Lodge Session, which since that was the selection of the Grand Lodge at its 27th annual session last year. He also stated that there was no doubt in his mind about the convention coming here. The committee has made contracts with the following: Mother Zion Church; Mt. Olivet Church; St. Marks Church; Fifteenth Regiment Armory; New Manhattan Casino; McAllister Steamship Co. for the steamer "Clarmont" for sight-seeing up the Hudson; for permission to hold various phases of the steamship in the above. Substantial payments have been made upon all these contracts. The ten thousand homes which have been secured await the arrival of the delegates and visitors to the 28th annual session. Besides the business sessions, an abundance of amusements have been arranged including a band contest, bathing beauty contest, a trip up the historical Hudson, Coney Island, Cabaret Night, and Midnight Show. To Mr. Harry L. Beal:— I am extremely glad to say over my signature to the voters of my district hat I am personally acquainted with Mr. E. Snapper Ingram. We have spoken together concerning the outlook for the city and the citi- zens at large, and I firmly believe him to be the man who should have the support of our district at the polls. W. T. CLEGHORN. Local Headquarters, 12014 Central Avenue. Telephone Trinity 5594. All the neighborhood between 1622 E. 33rd St. and 1635 E. 33rd St. was thrown into a state of terror a few nights ago by the staccato reports of a pistol wildly waving in the hands of Ether Jones, 1635 E. 33rd St. Ether, who, though hearing a soothing surname is said to have the evil reputation of a very mean and quarrelsome disposition, especially when drinking. In times of peace he is employed at Goldstein's furniture store and has, a wife and two children. Firing a shot in the residence of W. Davis 1622 E. 33rd st. ran into the street striding up and down shooting promiscuously while frightened residents of the vicinity ran for cover. After he ceased firing he ran away, returning later and was captured by officers Davis and Kelly who had come on the hurry-up call. Taking him back over his wild journey they traced up the pistol which was not on him when arrested, and found where he had hidden it under a house at 1601 E. 33rd st. At the trial next morning in Judge Richardson's Court, where he was given 90 days suspended sentence for two years, hardly any witnesses could be found who would testify against him, even his wife being in deadly fear of the reckless gunman. STRONG SUPPORT FOR SNAPPER INGRAM As the city election campaign enters its final stages, awakened interest in the candidacy of E. Snapper Ingram, candidate for the City Council in the Tenth District, is being reported throughout the territory he is seeking to serve in an official capacity. Scouts of endorses of Mr. Ingram's candidacy have been received at his campaign headquarters from prominent citizens, influential civic groups and candidates who opposed him in the primary election. Mr. Ingram is asking election to the City Council on a platform that is pledged to the application of common sense in all matters pertaining to city government, particularly in the matter of assessments. Mr. Ingram believes that overlapping assessments which tend to cancissate the property of the taxpayer must be stopped. He advocates the opening and closing of the assessment area are required, but he believes that the people of the district in which such opening and widening is proposed should first approve such plans, inasmuch as they are the people who pay the bills. The candidate is in favor of the acquisition of additional parks and grounds in the Tenth District and contends that that can be accomplished without extra burden to the taxpayer, through the utilization of the city school grounds. Mr. Ingram has dedicated his support to a program of unification of street planting to aid in making Los Angeles "The City Beautiful". He is pledged to the further development and improvement of Los Angeles Harbor and is a strong advocate of the Boulder Canyon Dam project, to supply water and hyd-electric power, so essential to the city and coconnected cycles. The candidate is particularly interested in adequate fire and police protection in the Tenth District and recommends the construction of additional facilities if necessary to assure this protection for the citizens and their property. Mr. Ingram has lived in Los Angeles 22 years and in the Tenth District seven years. He is a property owner and his years of experience in the city engineering department has trained him to the needs and problems of the taxpayers. He served in France during the war and has been commander of Sunshine Post, American Legion, member of the City Inter-post Council of the American Legion and vice president of the Disabled Veterans of the World War. He added to the large number of individuals who have endorsed his candidacy he has been given the support of Union Labor and has the endorsement of the following organizations: United Veterans of the Republic, "First Five Hundred", Hoover Street Business Men's Association, Manufacturer's Employee Civic Association, Associated Bakers of Southern California, Loyal 79 Club, Disabled Veterans of the World War, Civic Rights Association, and Figueroa Street Business Men's Association, and California Political League.

SUPREME COURT DECISIONS Not since the passage of the 14th and 15th amendments to the constitution has there been so far reaching and important legislative or judicial enactment in the interest of the Negro as the decision of the United States Supreme Court it the case of Texas white primary March 7 of this year. This decision makes possible the unauthorized Colored people who have hitherto been denied the ballot. The decision of the United States Supreme Court in the New Orleans segregation case in March of this year is also of intense importance in that it manifests most clearly the Gibraltar like nature of the Louisville decision DIVIDENDS WITH in Cincinna FENDS WITHOUT INVES Ohio BUREAU of POW Operating the Electric THE CITY OF HENDERSON & HENDERSON A down-town store with de Ladies and Gents' Hosiery.

BY: GLADYS MATHONICAN Girls' Reserve Baseball team is getting busy and is contemplating having quite a number of games scheduled for the near future. They are also hoping that they will be better supported in their baseball game than in their basketball games. Watch this column for date of first game. Eastside Girls' Baseball team is still on the job and will probably play the Girl Reserves at an early date. Now that the warm summer days are coming, attention is being turned to such summer sports as tennis and swimming. The girls are expected to do exceptionally well in the former and although they are, in a way, handicapped in the latter, they are not going to make a bad showing in it at all. The co-operation of girls of club who wish to compete with others, would be appreciated by editor of this column. National League Moguls Hold Meeting (By: A. N. P.) Chicago, Ill., May 23.—Wth every club represented and Judge W. L Hueston presiding, the National Negro Business League moguls held the first meeting since the season opened, here Thursday and Friday, at which time a program was adopted that the officers of the organization believe will mean better baseball and rapid development of the league. That the managers, team owners, and officers of the League are determined to cooperate with the newly elected president, Judge Hueston, was indicated by the harmony which characterized the sessions and manner in which each representative stood by the judge and accepted his decisions. In fact, it is claimed that the meeting was the most harmonious in the history or the league According to a decision reached Friday, each club will play a game, on its home grounds, for the benefit of the flood sufferers. Plans will be launched in each of the eight cities to put the project over in the most effective manner. Each club will announce the date of its game. Realizing the value of publicity, this phase of the League activities came in for much discussion and each manager was urged to give the public the news of the games through the press. "SHAKE, RATTLE AND ROLL" TAKES ROAD Los Angeles, Cal., May 19.—After weeks and weeks of careful rehearsing the much heralded new show with its birth on the coast opened at the luxurious Capitol Theatre, one of the best of the down town theatres, Saturday night. The cast is headed by the excellent stars of the ill-fated "Struttin' Sam" Company, whose members entered suit for wages against it after a run at the Majestic Theatre here and a road tour of several months. The members of the company withdrew and were formed into a new company by Charles Aipin, who wrote the sensational Shake, Rattle and Roll. Ed. Tolliver, Tom Harry Chick Johnson, Mal Patton, Lee Goldie, Bebe Harding, and Josephine McDonald, compose the cast, while what is said to be the prettiest, most perfectly formed heavy of young girls forms a chorus of twenty. Some of the chorus girls rank almost as stars including Marvelle de Landro, Clotilde Woodson, Rosale Mack, Rosetta Brooks and others. Charles Alpin, the able director and author of the production, won a suit a few years ago over Charlie Chaplin, the world famous comedian. Chaplin accused Alpin of using the name he carries as a copy of his name and of imitating his stage manners in order to mislead his followers. It was thrashed out in a sensational suit with Mr. Alpin winning. THE REFEREE Popularity Contest is one of the best ideas ever originated to help boost interest in the great fight game. It is a child of the versatile brain of Editor Howman no doubt, and the giving away of the beautiful diamond studded belt to the fortunate winning fighter will follow keen competition. THE FIGHTER Although handicapped by a bad, newly-made diamond, which kept them from making home runs, Jim Hunt's L. A. Giants slammed a 10 to 5 killing on the Long Beach Merchants, Sunday. The game was featured by good pitching on the part of Farley with 6 and Lewis with 3 innings. Also by a 3 sacker by Wilson a deuce by Adams and some great work by Neal on 3rd stopping many runs by superb catches. Campbell on 2nd base and Butcher also did great stuff. Wins the Long Beach pitcher, got his hand split by a hard batted ball and was retired for Hatfield. Strike-outs by Long Beach 6, by L. A. Gants 6. Next Sunday, May 29th, the Huntsmen play the hard San Bernardino Central's at the Park and play Long Beach again in about 4 weeks. The boys are getting better and better all the time and will give the fans what they crave for in good baseball when they get back to town. The score follows: L. A. Giants 004 004 011—10 Hits 003 004 122—12 Long Beach $10 004 000—5 Hits 003 004 122—12 Who will box in Delaney Ben MUSHY C Along Fisticuffs Row EDDIE LONG was down at the Manhattan gym every day this week with his Blonde Terror champion Bud Taylor. Long is a fine, pleasant fellow, dapper of appearance and full of business. He says Jack Johnson is doing well in Chicago. TOM JONES, former manager of two different champions was among the boys this week. He no wha Neil Cliby in tow and is taking good care of the big San Bordeo boy. VIC ALEXANDER and Benny Hill are back from Jack Dempsey's camp as is also Nick manager, Fred Windsor. The boys look pretty good but say Dempsey really gets them through the mill. On well, it's about $150 per week they say. MIKE O'LEARY is keeping in good trim; has a lot of good matches ahead. THE HUDDERS boys still believe the Allman Genesis is a coming thing. They are right. Each with a chip on his shoulder, Bud Taylor, the blonde terror one of the most popular champs that ever wore a wedge and Chick Suggs, the great little black boy, who put New Bedford on the map, are waiting for clang of the brass which sends them on their way. Each has a hat at stake. Suggs will be getting his first introduction to the critical California fans, the kind of fans that are like they say Minouriers are, "got to be shown." If he makes a hit with them by heating Bud he may write his own ticket. If not, they will be badly disappointed with a poor showing for all the fans, especially the colored ones, have been watching the sensational flash who has been so near champion for some time. Red Chapman, "Honey Boy" Fennegan are some of the many good boys he has faced in the arena so he says he does not fear the whirlwind from Terra Huez. On the other hand Bud has all to lose and a lot to gain by beating so good a boy as Sugga. It will be one more good scalp that he can hang on the walls of his gym at Terra Haute. But if he loses, it will be a great setback to him not only in his Western record but also in the East. So the crowds are eagerly waiting to see, just what's what. eft at Saint Paul, Minnesota. ALLAHAN SANTIAGO ZORILLA had a one- round bout with his dentist a few days ago and came out of it with a sorer jaw and more teeth missing than he ever got inside the cupra.

JIMMY DELANEY'S wife and two children at Saint Paul parish now have seen past a gathering of great ring men as will box for the Wilmore Benedict next month at the St. Paul Bed Park. Among those attending their services are Bad Taylor, Maddy Cullabag, Woleset Langford and many others. A day suit will probably be raised for the family. You Can Catch Your 1 HIPPOHOME—Fox News.

Lil Ferina and Baby Sister Cannot Outgrow Contracts Hollywood, Cal., May 24.—'Ll' Favina' and baby sister, Our Gang Comedy star, but in private life the children of Mrs. F. Hoskins, 923 East 33rd street, will not be able to call for a new contract according to the new bill recently passed in the Legislature. Producers have long chafed under a situation in which after much expense in bringing the 'many' infant prodigies into popularity, the child will grow to the age where it will call for a new contract annulling the one signed by the parents. In this way many injustices have crept in and led to this measure of protection being prepared for the party of the first part. Ll' Favina' is the most popular child star.

Keen competition is expected to take place in the 880-yd. run when Hicks, Cook and Brown get together. "Church" Matthews or Berkeley is supposed to cop the Pole Vault but Pulcher, Stovall, Woodyard and Thompson ought to make it tough for him. First heats will begin promptly at 1:00 P.

HELEN WILLS CARRIED PLENTY OF RACQUETS London.—Helen Wills, California tennis star, has had her first workout on local courts. She arrived for her European tour with 20 rackets in her baggage. Miss Wills declared that she will enter one or two local tournaments before playing in the Wimbledon championships. San Diego Tennis club's rocket wielders trimmed the Los Angeles Tennis club team, 10 matches to 7, over the week-end. Mushhlabena and Muench, two junior stars, were outstanding for San Diego, although Gus Herd defeated Mushhlabena, 6-1, 6-4.
