Auto
Residents Of Monrovia
In Fatal Automobile
Accident
The lives of three well known Monrovia citizens were snuffed out in an instant on last Saturday night as they were entering the city of San Bernardino, having driven a new Nash Automobile from Monrovia to attend a Masonic affair in that city.
The three persons were: Rev. E. Z. Martin, William Burney and Thomas W. Pressley, all of Monrovia. They drove from Monrovia on what is known as the foothill Boulevard arriving at the outskirts of San Bernardino near the Santa Fe depot. They turned onto a long and narrow bridge. This structure has a sharp turn to the left, just before taking the descent which leads into the city. It is said that the driver, Mr. Burney, was of defective eyesight and lacked experience as a driver, and became confused at the sudden turn and in some manner maneuvered the car, so that it left the bridge which is some 50 odd feet from the ground and carried away a section of the rolling, toppled over fell upon another car which was parked underneath the bridge, reducing both of them to a mass of junk and killing the occupants of the Nash instant. E. Z. Martin was the pastor of the Church at Duarte, while Mr. Wm. Burney and Thos W. Pressley were residents of Monrovia.
The bodies of the two latter were brought to the funeral parlor of Conner and Johnson of this city while the body of Rev. Martin was cared for and all expense borne by the Baptist Church (white) of Monrovia. The funeral of all three will be held at the same time from the First Baptist Church of Monrovia.
TWO LYNCHINGS

BORDER STATE
TERRIBLE RATE OF MOB MURDERS CALL FOR NATION-WIDE PROTEST ON "SALEM DAY"
Boston, Mass., June 10, 1927. Last week's continued rate of "Two lynching a week" has aroused fresh interest in the proposal urged by the National Equal Rights League that June 17th, anniversary of Bunker Hill be everywhere publicly celebrated an "Salem Day" in honor of Peter Salem and Salem Poor, Colored hero soldiers on this first regular battle for American independence, each meeting to send resolutions to President Coolidge with signature of the promoters, for a federal anti-policing bill it is inclined that a fresh bombardment of the White House must be made and resolutions adopted on anniversary of a day when Colored soldiers helped found the Republic will carry a special weight as well as evidence of a concerted action.
To carry out this campaign the League suggests Equal Rights Citizens Committees or Leagues or such subcommittees or existing race bodies or churches. Heads of all national organizations or orders are asked to send a recommendation to every unit to pass a resolution at regular meetings nearest June 17th, and church on June 18th. A resolution of each resolution with the signature be sent to the League, so that all these may be presented at the White House together for July 4th, each resolution also to ask abolition of federal segregation as a United Race appeal against two lynchings per week. The League supplies the Historical Leaflet postpaid for 6 cents in stamps.

(By A. N. P.)
Memphis, Tenn., June 13.—The arrival of officers saved Tommie Lee Brown, a twenty-year-old woman, charged with attacking a white woman, from being lynched by a mob of more than 100 whites here Tuesday night. When the police arrived the youth was being beaten and cries of "lynch him" were being made.
The white woman declared that Brown had attacked her as she stepped off the street car and she screamed. Her outcry brought several men to her aid and the report circulated rapidly until the mob which gathered around the alleged assailant reached more than the century mark. Maddened by the charge made against the Negro youth, the whites seized him, beat him severely and were preparing to add another lynching to Tennessee credit when the officers stopped the ceremony.

(Bv A. N. P.)
Helena, Ark., June 11. Owen Fleming was shot to death by a posse of two hundred whites, near here early Wednesday morning. Fleming was charged with killing a white man named Row-Walton and farm overseer.
According to reports the white man had sent for Fleming to help, move refugees back to their farms and Fleming sent word to him that he was sick. Angered by the message sent him, Walters went to Fleming's home and attempted to force him to come with him. Fleming fearing that he would be killed shot Walters, killing him instantly. Following the report of the killing, a pose formed and went in search of Fleming and when they surrounded him near his home they riddled his body with bullets.

DR. WILSON IS AC QUITTED OF RAPE CHARGE
(By A. N. P.)
Chicago, June 11.—Dr. John T. Wilson, head of the Wilson Hospital of this city was acquitted of the charge of rape preferred against him by Miss Navajo Boozer, a pupil nurse, here Wednesday afternoon when he was tried before Judge Harry B. Miller of the criminal court.
The verdict of not guilty brought to an end a case which has attracted national attentian due to the fact that Dr. Wilson is one of the most prominent physicians and surgeons in the country, having served for a number of years on the faculty of Meharry Medical School from which he graduated some thirty years ago. When the initial charges were filed, Dr. Wilson charged that the young woman, who halls from Clarkdale, Mississippi, was attempting to wreak vengeance upon him because she had been dismissed from the nurse training institution of the Wilson hospital and that she was trying to extort money from him.
In the preliminary hearing the doctor was bound over to the Grand Jury and when the court opened Tuesday afternoon the courtroom was packed with physicians, dentists and pharmacists, many of whom had studied under Dr. Wilson while he was at Meharry, Miss Boozer repeated her charge that the head of the hospital had committed rape upon her.
Attorney Wendell Green, one of Chicago's most brilliant attorneys in cross-examining Miss Blower, forced the complaining witness to contradict herself several times, in spite of the defiant attitude which she assumed. After Dr. Wilson's testimony had been heard and the argument of his attorney closed, the verdict of not guilty was not a surprise.

Mississippi Slayer Rushed From State To Prevent Lynching
(By A. N. P.)
Montgomery, Ala., June 13—Walter Burley, who was arrested in Jackson, Mississippi, on a charge of killing a white woman, was brought here Monday to safeguard him from the wrath of Mississippiians bent upon lynching him. Burley is alleged to have confessed to the murder and the feeling was so high in Jackson that he was removed to Hattiesburg.
Hattiesburg, however, proved to be unsafey and the prisoner was carried to Gulfport, but here, too, it is reported that the officers refused to assume any responsibility for his life and he was spiritied across the border of Mississippi at the time he is confined in the "condemned cell" of Kilby Prison.
For the last few days, rumor has been current that Mr. and Mrs. Sidney P. Dones who reside at 1388 East 48th street, have become estranged. In as much as both parties appear to reside at the same address, it was given over as common gossip. However, upon investigation it appears that the couple who were married on September 1st in Memphis, Tenn., and whose wedding was heredal as one of the most elaborate affairs in recent years in Memphis had mutually agreed to separate. This was indeed a surprise to their many friends.
After Mr. Dones' marriage at Memphis and his return to Los Angeles with the charming Mrs. Dunes, it was at first considered an ideal match, but recently it has been noted that they seldom, if ever, were seen out together which led to the rumor that all was not well.
Mr. Dones, when interviewed on this subject, refused to make any statement. In keeping with his policy he stated that any statement would have to come from Mrs. Dunes. It is understood that the mother of Mr. Dunes has arrived in the city. His mission has not been ascertained. However, it appears that there is no hope of reconciliation between the couple.
Employee Of Famous Night Club Stricken
Early. Thursday morning after having placed a carriage in the buttonhole of his employer's coat and bidding him good-bye, Mr. J. Goodman Braye was seized with a sudden pain and in less than five minutes passed away in the arms of his employer, Frank Sebastian, owner of the Sebastian Cotton Club in Calver City. Mr. Baye was a native of Stinley, Australia and a graduate of Howard University. He was adopted and rented by Lippman Taananbaini, prominent and wealthy Jew of Chicago, Illinois, attended a Jewish Synagogue and spoke the Hebrew language fluently.
For eleven years Braye was the manager of the Taananbaini Mining Company after which he became a Real Estate broker in the city of Angeles. Later he moved to Imperial Valley where he proposed plans for a Colored Industrial School.
One time Mr. Braye's interest was centered in show life and he traveled with the well-known stock company of Stewart and Robinson. He was also a gifted playwright having written two plays; "The Black Millionaire" for which he received an offer of $20, for which he received an offer of $20,000.
He leaves a widow, Mrs. Alleatheat Wynn-Braye, a daughter, Miss Alice Braye, a son, Louis Braye and a host of friends.
BOY HURT IN AUTO ACCIDENT, DIES
Last Friday, June 3, while crossing the street at 9th and Central, Gerald Brown, 14, living at 9th and Long Beach, was run over by a gravel truck. He died from these injuries Sunday, June 5th.
As Gerald started across the street, the traffic cop turned for the change of traffic. Seeing this the boy started back to the curb, but was knocked down, run over, and dragged by a truck that had started just a second toe soon.
His right leg from the thigh down was split open and he also suffered from injuries to his back and splice. The ambulance was called and he was rushed to the receiving hospital. His leg was to have been amputated Sunday, at 5 A. M. but Gerald passed away at 2 A. M.
He was well liked by all of his friends. He was a scholar of Lafayette Junior High School and was to have been one of its most famous students. Other women were frequently seen at 11h and Central where both gold papers after school hours.
The fathers was held last Friday at
3. P. M. with, Conner-Johnson, in
charge. School friends acted as pal-
bearers.
SIDNEY P. DONES IS GRANTED APPEAL IN USURY CASE
BY: R. G. LAMAR
On last Saturday appeal was granted Sidney P. Dones on the matter of Ethel Davis who claims to have been charged more than the proper amount of money. The record of the files in the matter and the testimony of witnesses was that Ethel Davis sought a loan. Her property being heavily encumbered, she was unable to secure a second mortgage, she found it necessary to make the papers in the name of the third party. Sidney P. Dones allowed her to use his name as the third party and sold her note at her request for $600.00. All of which money was turned over to her, no commission or brokerage having been charged her whatever.
This case has now been appealed to the Superior Court of Los Angeles County. The attorneys who appear surprised at the adverse verdict in the lower courts, state that the higher court will never hold Mr. Dones as charged.
Introducing Rae Spiegel
BY: WILLIAM PICKENS
Rae Spiegel is a girl, so young that he will not tell her age for fear that the mature prejudice of older minds will discredit her 'attributions' because she is a "child," relatively speaking. Rae has won several positions because of her industry and genius—and then lost the position as soon as she turned up in person to claim it—because she was so young. When she writes a review of some ponderous book, a magazine editor reads it and says: "that's just the woman Literary Editor. Editors do not have to drive." How old are you?"—immediately his enthusiastic waivers, and he fumbles for an excuse not to employ her.
She is a Jew, a Russian, and has been in America just five years—and there are very few Americans who at twice Rae's age have read half as much good literature as she has read. Her reviews of books on and by the Negro during the last twelve months are phenomenal—if you only knew her age. And judged without consideration of age, they will stand up among the best.
And yet she read her first Negro book just about one year ago almost by accident. A small publication gave her "Bairsting Bonds" to review. "That gave me an idea, and neglected with other reading," she says. Since that day she has read more books by and about the Negro than have the great majority of educated colored Americans.
With the traditions and the background of a Jew, an oppressed people, she has interpreted many of these books in reviews with an astonishing understanding. She is quite an emphasement to the high school teachers where she attends school, whatever the subject of "the Negro" or of "Reconstruction" comes up in the class. A great grown teacher has more than once taken her to task for "defending the Negro."—I am not defending anybody, said Rae "I am simply trying to interpret the facts. I am trying to reason out the meaning of the thing stated in the books."—Rae is gradually learning, perhaps, that "reasoning" is the last thing that race prejudice can ever tolerate. Reason is plain poison to such a case.
And Negro books are just one of Rae Spiegel's diversions. She can talk with you about Schopenhauer and Nant; about imperialism and revolution; about Eric Waltread and Counten Cullen; and at last she is about to land one job as book reviewer for a great daily paper. The editor forget to ask her AGE.
And this child just the other any time she goes to Russia, jumping over five story windows in the back of the house to escape the invading counter-revolutionists, with her little life scorned by aristocrats and menaced as a member of a displeased minority. Small wonders that those high school teachers cannot feel her on this

Three Convicts
(By A. N. P.)
Baton Rouge, La., June 14.—Captain J. R. Picon of St. Gabriel, penal farm, verified reports that three convicts had escaped. The general office of the penitentiary here declared that it did not know the names of the convicts and were without an official report Captain Picon, however, said tonight that Roosevelt Simpson was slain. Ben Diggs, wounded, and Frank Hunter was successful in making a getaway, but was believed shot. Bloodhounds were unable to pick up the trail from a swamp, where it is believed he not only was shot, but was captured from dinner, when the two troopers for liberty 200 yards from the woods. The foreman of the guard called to them to halt, and when his second command had been ignored, the order to fire was given.
Says Work Is Scarce

EDUCATOR DEAD
The passing of Mr. C. S. Simmons was indeed a shock to his many friends here. He served many years on the staff at Tuskegee under the late Boker T. Washington; twelve years principal of the high school at Tuscon, Aris, for the past two years connected with the work here, where he made many friends. Being ill he returned some months ago. He leaves a wife, one sister, two brothers and a host of friends to mourn his loss.
Query of Eagle Reader
1024 Lorena St.
Los Angeles, Calif.
June 14, 1927.
DEAR ELITOR:
On opening a morning paper today, I was greeted by "Lyachinga Feared As Negro Trio Rushed to L. A." The previous evening's Record gave the account of the attack of the account that the three men are accused of. The California Eagle of Friday, 10th inst., had a report of the same crime committed against a Negro woman by an armed burglar.
Obviously, some remedy for this state of things is overdue—as much in defense of the colored as of our other citizens.
Would the prompt hanging for it, when proven, be as effective here as it is in England, where a brutal attack was recently punished by execution (after trial by jury) within a month's time?

As we see it, the next biggest business project in St. Louis is the People's Finance Corporation of which Chas. E. Harriot is the president, Editor J. E. Mitchel, Vice President; W. H. A. Barrett, Vice President; Geo. H. Anderson, Secretary; Edward L. Grant Assistant Secretary; E. L. Harris, Treasurer; D. W. Bowles, Chairman or Finance Committee and Counsel.
The People's Finance Corporation is housed in a five story modern building at Jefferson and Market Streets, not more than five blocks from the Union Station.
On the first floor of the building is the bank which is not as pretentious as the Chicago banks, but up-to-date nevertheless. The other floors are used by business and professional folk, such as physicians, lawyers, dentists, parlorists and tailors.
Other lines of business such as grocery stores, beauty parlorls, tailor shops, haberdashers, and cafes are on a par with other cities of similar population.
Like Chicago, when we reached St. Louis, we found her in the throes of a political campaign. One colored woman contending for a place on the Board of Education, and a colored attorney trying to be of service to the city as councilman, and the same old story in the same old way was also the popular chant; some were for and some against, and they battled until the signal of defeat for the Blacks was lifted to the breeze, and those who battled like those who sat supinely by took a long breath, and looked up to the hiller of prejudice from which cometh no help.
There are an hundred thousand Black folk in St. Louis. They live in all sections of the city. There are some very beautiful residences, and apartments owned by members of the apartments owned by members of the rest, but again the same condition prevails here in other cities or large Black population. The majority of these people live in dilapidated homes long since deserted by whites who have moved to more desirable sections.
St. Louis has segregated schools, and provides its hundred thousand Black population with but one high school which during active hours is packed like sardines. But please, if you should happen to go to St. Louis don't say anything about this, and other conditions in this progressive Middle Western City; for if you do the high-ups will tell you to go home, and mind your own business, and after all, that's the thing to do.
So, California folk, please keep your eyes open at home. Segregated schools stand first of all for inferior education.
Our last spirited experience in St. Louis was to be a participant upon the program at the Citizens' Meeting and National Conference held Wednesday evening, March 9th, at the magnificent Saint Paul A. M. E. Church.
And the very same evening we printed cheerly with our newly made friends, and boarded a mid-night train for Topeka, Kansas.

BLACK AMERICANS RIDE SANTA FE SHIFF
Always out for the best that money can buy. Black Americans making the trip across the continent, have been patronizing the Santa Fe's De Luxe excess fare, the "Chief." They have been riding it heavy for the past two months; the Ten Dollars excess fare is like a match to those who ride, and they use the "Chief" like one would a street car. It is the same old story, "What's good for the Goose is Good for the Gander."
CHICAGO SPEEDS TRAFFIC
California motorists would be lost in the shuffle, if they undertook to drive their lizzie down Michigan Blvd. as slowly as they drive here.
The traffic department in the Windy City requires one to step on the gas at the rate of 35 miles per hour. And they hardly ever fall under 40. You seldom fear of an accident on account of the increased speed. If you are going too slow, and a traffic cop gets behind you, he will most certainly tell you to shake a leg. Some speed!

PULLMAN PORTERS BAND RE- ORGANIZES
After many long and weary months of waiting for the next step toward bringing the Pullman Porters Band to a reality, it has at last got started in full swing under the leadership of A. Noel who promises to give Los Angeles a crack band composed entirely of Pullman Porters operating out of this district. The following porters are requested to get in touch with A. Noel whose address is 1801 E. 115th St., Phone Delaware 1201 J. 5; or E. Jones No. 2, 1338 E. 42nd St., Phone Humbolt 7367 W for full-particulars. This is very important and should be attended to at once. A mammoth band meeting will be held at the Southern Pacific Storeroom on Wednesday, June 22nd and Thursday, 23rd at 1 P. M. sharp, where some very interesting news pertaining to the band will be told: B. Belton; L. Thropy; S. E. Hill; T. D. Starks; N. Johnson; H. J. Mington; J. W. Richardson; H. B. Wilson; W. King; F.

SEGREGATION ON THE WEST SIDE
The many futile attempts of the white residents to keep the residential district bounded on the West by Arlington Ave. the South by 31st, the East by Western Ave. and the North by West Adams St. a pure lily white, continues to be an issue with the Race occupying homes in that vicinity. The have been threedhed in court, so far have not been able, to hold water, thanks to the able brains of one of our leading attorneys. Willis O. Tylery
Just why the few white people should object to respectable Colored residents living in this neighborhood, has long been a pruse to the writer. In as much as there are other races of a darker hue already located there, such as the Japanese, Spanish, Mexicans, Chinese, in fact any one of the different nationalities are far worse off than any of their colored neighbors. The Spanish families, many of them living in the garages in the rear of houses, poor as church mice. So far as the white residents are concerned, they are living in a hand-to-mouth condition, and would have sold out long ago if some get rich-quick real estate agents had not told them that they could get at least three times the value or their homes by keeping the district lily white. The homes in this district are of a high class type. The lawns are well kept up and the general appearance of the neighborhood is such that the poor whites who are making their last stand are reluctant to give up to the Black Americans. But the progressive Negro or today wants a decent place to live, and the moose he follows is, "What's good for the goose, is good for the gorilla!"
GIVE GOOD SERVICE
This has long been a topic when under discussion that brings much much argument pro and con—Can a hungry porter give good service? The answer is NO! The porter operating at the Union Pacific has to pay from 65 to 75 cents for his meals. The porter on the Golden State of the Southern Pacific transportation status must pay the same. The muzzle shop receives for this sum are glittery out enough as they work in the sun. The porter on the Golden State that's human nature. The muzzle gives the owner first respect that he is in love, and the porter blows him. It is he alone that collects the most and under those circumstances, but in the least the porter receives must pay the bill by the muzzle shop. The muck

business should be "Feed the Porter for Good Service." The Santa Fe is long ago found that cut, and their sleepers are always full their patrons never have any complaint to make about the porter service, the Pullman Porter are the Santa Biggest Scouts. Ask one and see for yourself. I have Pullman Porter state that they would rather headload on the Santa Fe than run in the Dulcet other roads. This should be tip to the presidents of others roads. The Santa Fe leads its Porter for 28 cents just about all they can eat. In the Harvey eating houses they are paid in courses the same as the plaster, with the second helping if asked for, ice cream for dessert—AND IT Porter somebody else. HUNGER.

There seems to be no reason why any of the boys should not get in on this as it is very much needed. One of the agents is a race man and as for displaying his salesmanship ability he certainly has to be better.

Effort to Discriminate
Detroit, Mich., June 14.—Because of discriminatory tactics about to be employed by the officials of the High School of Commerce here in regards to a pleasure outing which was to have been given for the graduating class of that school the attention of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., known as the "trouble board," was called and the very prompt action of this organization halted proceedings forthwith.
It is said that all students were requested to put up $1.40 for the outing, which was done by the colored students as well as the others. A few days prior to the outing, one of the school officials is reported to have informed the colored students that they could not hope to go and that seventy-five had been given to them and they could remain at home. The students accepted the rebuffy very graciously but reported immediately to Rev. R. L. Brady, the fighting, efficient president of the local branch of the N. A. A. C.

When told in plain words by Brady that the colored students themselves did not refuse to go on the outing and that if there was any objection on the part of anyone else, the colored students would go just the same, and it would then become the duty of the school officials to let the object parties remain at home. The whole affair was called off, and the Negroes feel victorious.

be sufficient to the public to say that

It has been and continues to, be
quite a job to get this iniquitous

nicious promoters in the person where
all crooks should be, but as our task
seems to grow more dffigult the great-
er grows our detcrmnation to see that
this is accomplished.
‘This entire matter could have long
since beef-straightened out, but with a

all of their names and to tell you jus

Beware of Imitations
By Dr. J. Winiford Rout
Clean teeth seldom decay. The problem is to keep the teeth clean. Dental airles or tooth decay is largely a disease of childhood and adolescence. If the teeth are kept free from decay until the age of 25 the chances are very favorable that they never will decay, but it is so rare that we find, upon examination, a person of that age or older with perfect teeth that when such a mouth is found its owner usually receives front page publicity in the daily newspaper.
The fundamental cause of tooth decay is more than lack of care. It is rather what we eat and how we eat it. If we as a nation ate exactly what we should, the way we should, tooth brushes would be unnecessary, but since we do not, and soft fod is bolted and half chewed, every care must be taken both with the tooth brush and careful periodic examinations in order to prevent the formation of food plaques and the beginning of decay thereby. Although the enamel of the tooth is the hardest substance in the body, when once penetrated, by the acids resulting from decomposing food, it deteriorates very rapidly. And when once the enamel is removed from the tooth the tooth itself is very quickly destroyed by decay.
"To cure is a voice of the past! to prevent is the divine whisper of the future," and the activities of the various State Departments of health are directed toward prevention of tooth trouble, rather than cure after the lamage is done. To those of your who have children under 8 years of age: will you not, for their sake, take them to your family Dentist and have these teeth examined and cared for?
BISHOP HEARD UNDER
FIRE AS LAYMEN
HURL CHARGES
Hartford, Conn., June 14.—The lie was frequently passed to Bishop W. W. heard by various delegates if the closing session of the 79th Annual Conference of New England A. M. E. Church, Sunday.
It seems delegates went to the four-day session with blood in their eyes. The turbulent meets reached the climax Sunday morning during the appointment of ministers to various charges.
Pandomonium reigned when Robert Miller, lay delegate and trustee of the St. Paul Church of Cambridge Mass., in open session, accused the Bishop of bad faith in refusing to return Rev. E. K. Nichols to the Cambridge Church as promised. It was at this time the irate layman passed the short and ugly word.
So determined was Mr. Miller he wired members of St. Paul to lock the doors of the church against Rev. M. C. McCoy, formerly of Lynn, Mass., an appointee of Bishop Heard to fill the Cambridge charge.
Threats were made by other members to carry the Bishop before the council. They charged Dr. Heard with yielding to dictates or Rev. I. Stanley Jacobs, former presiding elder of the Boston district, of whom it was said, had a grudge against certain ministers in his diocese.
Rev. Jacobs was sent to the Metropolitan Church, Harlem, after being transferred to the New York Conference.
After a protest meeting of St. Paul members Monday evening, the Bishop relented, allowing Rev. Nichols to remain at Cambridge.

If the fiction characters cuss, it's a high-brow magazine.
There are just two philosophies of life: Do unto others and do others.
And many people think they are good merely because they are tired of sinning.
One reason why success goes to the head is because nature doesn't like a vacuum.
Man works hard to establish a credit and then frequently finds it too good for his good.
About the only place where a conservative is handicapped is at the necktie counter.
Keeping shoes shines is expensive, but at least you needn't check them when you go in to lunch.

Prosperity means good business, and good business means active buying. Buying moves in a circle.
There are four factors in the circle of buying—the manufacturer, the jobber, the retailer and the buyer. Together these factors constitute the public. The manufacturer, the jobber or retailer is in a separate class from the buyer only so far as his business is concerned. In every other relation in life he is one small individual in the great mass called the public, and he is affected by the same living conditions that affect the latter. Outside his own business he, too, is a buyer, so he joins with the public in starting the buying impulse that sweeps around the circle. He buys the comforts and necessities of life, and he wants reasonable prices the same as the public does.
Not all Loss Angeles merchants are using the local papers to unload their shelves. But it can be depended upon that the ones who are, are the ones who are anxious to join hands with the public in bringing about prosperity and keeping the community prosperous.
A SERMON ON TOWN LOYALTY
No citizen is so powerful, none so humble, but what his town is an aid to him in some way or other. There is where he employs his labor or his capital, builds his home, enjoys the society of his kind and in short finds everything that makes life worth the living. Failing to find these things he usually goes in search of them elsewhere. If he remains it is natural to suppose he has found that which he sought.
Since your town boosts you why not do as well by it as it does by you? To progress it needs the help of every citizen, and every citizen benefits individually from every community improvement, whether that improvement take the form of public works, population growth, increased prosperity or business development.
No community is so miserable and unattractive that it has not its boosters and none so perfect it has not its knockers, but that city or town achieves most in civic betterment which has the most boosters.
There are boosters and many of them in Los Angeles. They and their forerunners have made it the fine community it is and are making it the better community all want it to be in the future. But there are two reasons why every citizen should be a civic worker and booster. First, it is unfair to place the whole burden upon the few and, second, every citizen owes it to himself and his fellow citizens to do everything within his power to make the community better that it may the better serve all. However, one should not make the mistake of confining his boosting to talking about the virtues of his home town. Direct advertising pays, but the kind of boosting that pays the highest dividends is sober and persevering endeavor of the kind that builds and beautifies the community.

Tomorrow is usually a little further off than yesterday. Both, however, have a perspective which in some way shows them up in nearly their true relation and in other ways distort the view and make them appear in strange ways. Yesterday was just a little while since, today and tomorrow will soon be just one of the present days.
There are dreamers who are continually looking for the better day, for the time when men and women will become almost perfect. They forever talk about the "good old days" and deplore modern conditions and morals. They never tire of comparison particularly of the modern girl with the girl of their youth and always to the disadvantage of the girl of today. So obsessed have they become with the idea that the trend of morals and manners are on the downward track that acts of slightest indiscretion become degrading and the failure of extreme courtiness shows a decadence in manners.
Yesterday was not a whit better than the today in which we live and the morals of the youth today are the equal of those in the "good old days." Manners of today are better, there may be less gentility but there is more gentleness and unselfishness than was the case yesterday. Prudishness and snobbery are at a minimum and the advancement in these two phases of politeness alone more than recompense for what may have been lost in the manners of other days.
If you will back up those who cintinually hark on conditions today and forever praise those of other days, it will be easy to convince hi mthat conditions today are as good as a question of a century am.
That great preparations are being made to foist the Chinese Lottery Sharks upon us again. From whence comes the order to inflict upon a people who have been assailed by our chief as furnishing the major part of crime in our city? It appears that an unseen hand prepares to manipulate the strings and "presto" the Lottery Sharks begin to ply their trade. In this instance, however, their hand has been called in the making. Games that were to have opened up on last Saturday have been deferred to the coming Saturday, and perhaps the attempt will fail to materialize at all for reasons that are obvious.
Be it known that the Chinese Lottery game is just about the biggest graft that can possibly come forth, when the industrious Orientals flit from place to place plying their trade and rake in thousands of dollars per day for chances of picking the elusive, 6 or 7 spot with but one chance in a million to do so. The California Eagle has ever been to the forefront in its relentless warfare against this pernicious graft. We have fought them when it meant serious consequences to us on account of the fact that its backers would seek for reprisals by the boycott route on advertising, and subscriptions. This, however, failed to dampen our enthusiasm for we never ceased in exposing this, the greatest of all fakes and harmful to the utmost degree.
Talk about exploitation, somebody unseen with a canny influence in police affairs, will not hesitate to foist upon the people of the East side, this orgie of vice along with any other which they see fit unless we are eternally on guard.
In the future as in the past, we shall, with due vigilance, seek out and call attention to developments of all sorts of vicious propaganda which tends to discredit and lower the morale of our citizenship consisting of all peoples in all sections that the "Soaring Eagle" serves.
For more than thirty years this writer has stood in the forefront battling and contending that the only salvation for the ultimate success of our group is for a closer union of all forces, this has been a long time and the only times in which we have succeeded was the time when we had a semblance of unity. We well remember back in Kansas when the famous Lincoln Day Club was organized. For a time every faction and individual worth while was united on a program of accomplishments, and presenting a solid front in political endeavor we got almost everything we went after. However, as time passed on old man envy, selfishness and self aggrandizement got crossed up with progress and the potency of our influence was below bar and we failed, signally so, to be counted in on the political program thereof.
Out here on these Western shores in the last city election, voters of our group got together as never before, and they actually brought things to pass. It was grand and great. A ray of sunshine it was for greater things to come if we can but keep up the spirit of getting together and remaining together.
The accomplishments from this situation will be so great that all can share in the glory thereof. It will be wholly unnecessary for anybody filled up with ego to say "I killed Cock Robin", for after all if "Cock Robin" is killed, it is the people who will kill him.
The main thing is having gotten together, for God's sake stay there. Eschew the spirit of envy, keep together as never before and all things will be added unto von as never before.

CARLO CURTIS MAY BE ONLY REAL "BOY PROMOTER
GOOD BATH DAY BILL AT MAIN
ST. ATHLETIC CLUB
Of all the "boy promoters" here the quiet, dapper Carlo Curtis looks more like a real kid than any of the rest. Maybe he is, maybe he "sint," he may be just a little old man so far as how to stage the kind of hot act in his day night bills that assure plenty of action and the quickest number of knockouts. Saturday's (June 18th) bill follows:

H. Turner, colored, was tried in judge Leonard, Wilson's Court, Thursday afternoon on a charge of assault and battery on the person of a white man by the name of Freeman. H. Turner, a white man, testified that Turner had jumped on Freeman and commenced beating him, John Bascomb, colred, testified that he had separated the two men Freeman himself stated that he had owed Turner $45.30, was talking with him about the debt on 42nd street when he suddenly smashed him on the jaw, knocked him down and began beating him. Turner testified that he broke me money, judge, and I asked him for it, but he says I hit him and I didn't.
"Who struck the first blow?" asked the judge.
"Well, we just got to tussling about the same time."
"Well," said the judge, "I find you guilty but I will give you a 30 days' suspended sentence for two years pro-
vided you promise to behave and the next time you have trouble bring your troubles to the court.

JOHN WAS A ONE MAN ARMY
John Gullibaule, 1724 E. 51st St.
may not be able to explain how he inherited such a name but he will have to explain what he was doing with a gun in each outside, overcoat pocket when arrested by officers from Newton standing in the shadow of a near midnight and when searched in addition to his arsenal consisting of a fully loaded automatic and a six-shooter he also had a bill fold full of lottery tickets. He was booked on a suspicion of robbery charge.
AT LEAST THE FORD WAS SOBEE
Sometimes a Ford shows the almost human intelligence it is said to possess when it cares to act untruly. But on the occasion a few nights past when Stewart Douglas was driving one, it is fortunate both for the car and the driver that it stopped when it did. Douglas was found at 28th and Central gloriously and helplessly drunk getting up in his filver, which had stopped there of its own record out of the traffic but with the motor still running. Its driver who was booked for drunken driving was unable to even hold the steering wheel any longer.
HE IS A. W. Q. L.
David Daniels was arrested by officers Penrose Slager and Hansen at 22nd and Central on suspicion of being an escaped State's prisoner. Daniels who halls from Louisiana was booked for investigation.
LIEUTENANT KRUG FAILS TO
MAKE PEACE
Lieutenant Krug of the Newton Street division whose peace making tendencies and success as such was related in last week's issue almost met his Waterloo in Mrs. Nita Knutsem. She was drunk and fighting at 1015 E. 53rd St. when Officer Prince attempted to arrest her. She turned her combative activities on him and was doing him up brown when Officer Prince called on Lieutenant Krug to come to his rescue. Turning on him she ripped and tore at him like a wild-cat almost tearing off his uniform, until he had to lay down arbitration and use pure strength to subdue the drink-crazed woman. But even yet he is not discouraged in the powers of persuasion.
JUST A HALE FINT TOO MUCH
Just about a half pint over a gallon or some unknown brand of boocho caused a heavier sentence, to hang over the head of Jessie Waters. She was gathered in with her contraband from 1115 E. 18th St., by Officers Church and others.

INTRODUCING RAE SPIEGEL
(Continued From Page One)
"Negro" business. Five years ago she knew not a word of English. Today see how she can analyze Carl Van Vechten's rot and the American soul in the following dissection of "Nigger Heaven."—In the future, watch our releases and other publications for the name of RAE SPIEGEL.
CARL VAN VECHTEN'S "NIGGER HEAVEN" BY RAE SPIEGEL
I wonder whether the word "artist" does necessarily have to suggest bad logic. It certainly does in this case, and not only that it also implies poor analysis of human nature, especially Negro nature. It does not take much effort on our part to prove those points. We have quite a new characteristics in the Carl Van Vechten's author of "Niger Heaven." attributes the Negro race as distinctly Negro traits that are not so.
To state examples: Mr. Van Vechten puts these words into the mouth of one of the characters of the story: "Negroes never premeditate murder—they commit murder under a passion." Except the fact that it is not characteristically Negro—that most murders committed by any people at the time of their act are done under the stress of passion, we face the direct opposition that there are many cases of premeditated murder in the South (done by Negroes). Another example: One finds that Carl Van Vechten think that C. P. T. (colorate people's time) is a shame, and that everyone the word "late." I am a Jewish know that the Jews think Jewish time is synonymous with "late." An observer therefore says "If that is true, there must be a general reason that would account for that. We see that it is not seemingly only a Negro trait; but also a Jewish one. What have those two races in common?" Investigating the situation, one finds that they were both slaves once upon a time. One
knows that masters never were pleased with their slaves. They (the masters) always called the slaves lazy told them that they were inefficient that they were late eats, and so can. That slaves never had a word of their own, that they always tried to follow the master. Knowing that then, one sees that the master really invented such "stuff" as C. P. T. That the stave followed in repeating that, tol it to his children, and the children told it to their children, and so forth and so on tuntil it formed into a saying. And we, unfortunately, take for grant it to his children, so do not investigate gate to see whether that static of other people, and by assimilation, arrive at the right conclusion. As a matter of fact C. P. T. is more r saying than a practiced custom. We find many other instances in the book of such defective analysis.
As far as the "artistic" part is concerned, the book "Nigger Heaven" is not a great work of art. There are but few characters that are drawn clearly. Mary, the heroine, seems like an Egyptian mummy. The description of the Creepen, may be a caricature, but it certainly is not a portrait of a living person. Byron, the hero, however is well drawn. So well drawn in fact that we cannot only see him, but also meet him. I know I could hear him say, "I want to be not only a good Negro writer; I want to be as good as anyone." The other characters are so, so. The cabaret scenes are worthy of mention. They really are the most "artistic" descriptions in the book.
As a representative of Negro life as a whole, "Nigger Heaven" is a complete failure.

APPRECIATION
Editor Calif. Eagle,
847 South Central Ave.,
Los Angeles, California.
Dear Sir: I desire to take this
opportunity to express to the voters and
citizens of the Tenth Councilman
District my sincere thanks and appreciation
for their support and confidence at the recent election, June 7th.
To the citizens of the Tenth District,
and to the citizens of the City of Los
Angeles at large, I promise a fair, impartial, clean, and honest business
administration. I was elected on a platform of communal governance, and matters
in city government, and particularly in the matter of assessments.
I will carry out this platform to the best of my ability. I have no entangling alliances or obligations, and in
as much as my campaign was conducted
on an independent basis, I will
easily serve the people as an independent councilman.
To the ex-service men, who are responsible in a large measure for my success, and to the California Eagle
and other newspapers of Los Angeles.
I extend my thanks.
Yours respectfully,
E. SNAPPER INGRAM.
COMMENTS BY: W. J. WHEATON
Read This: It occurred in Alabama. Eugene Harris, 24 year-old Ned caddy at Highland Park golf course (Birmingham) was shot and who said that Harris was "caddying out of turn."
What manner of citizens comprise the membership of that club when the master of its links is compelled to carry a deadly weapon, "tote a gun" for fear of his life? Again, the opacity of the intellect of that membership must be great when it would have in its service a personage so conscienceless, so bereft of human decency, as to commit a murder for the infraction of a minor rule. Even the best trained dogs make mistakes. The last fight this writer can remember was because a companion in the hunting field shot and wounded a dog that made a mistake, or error, in retreiving a bird. The more one ponders over the brutal killings of animals that does not speak well for the social status of Birmingham laws when the murder of their caddies heralds to the civilized world that murderous weapons are used to "tee" of their lives, and graves mark the final hole; yes, it might be that they will see that Justice is meted out to the slayer of Eugene Harris.

Now, read this: It happened in Illinois (Chicago). "Three Flying Negroes bring U, S, Track Title to Detroit High." Three Negro boys and one white boy, schoolmates, won the interscholastic track championship of America for the Northeast High School of Detroit. This quartette of youngsters matched speed, brain and brawn with 1,000 other boys. Youngsters who represented 182 high schools in 33 States. Color was forgotten. The cheers from the thousands of throats heralded the victory of the relay quartet when with flying feet they speeded the way to victory, bringing the coverted honor of the interscholastic championship to their school. Some difference: Alabama-Illinois; and the meet was given under the auspices of the Chicago No guns were used with murderers. Illinois and Alabama are both States of the Union, but there the story ends.

We are glad to see Kelly Miller still hammering away at the Civil Service Force. We remember when he advocated the appointment of Mrs. Mary Church Terrell to a, then vacant, position on the Commission there was no assistance from the Administration appointees. The "Master's Voice" said "Keep mum" and mum was the word. The professor says, "The Negro makes a great many demands of the party of his preference before election and of the administration immediately after election. Usually the gulletful candidate knows how to jolly the brother in politics until his vote is secured and to soft-soap him after the victory has been won. I seem to have some faint recollection of one Mr. Matthews and his 14 points. But they amounted to less than the scrap of paper upon which they were written."
A year or two past we tried to cultivate a study of Negro history, and bring before the public the activities of our race in the formation, building and preservation of this nation. We started off with the observance of the battle of Bunker Hill, in which Peter Salem; Salem Poor, Leo, the Fifer' and others of the race played heroic parts. In that endeavor we had the splendid cooperation of Dr. W. Moore, minister, Third Baptist Church, San Francisco. After the inauguration of the effort we waited for a continuation of such moves, but to this date no demonstration in remembrance of our great racial characters has claimed the attention of our people. When we think of how people have been demonstration in historical love in the Negro race in the United States, it appears as if we are woefully lacking in our appreciation and give cause for others to think that we are a negligible quantity in the affairs of the nation. It gives to others the absolute right to believe that, aside from our bondage, we have no claim upon the respect of the nation. It is any wonder that they speak with disrespect of Frederick Donglass when they know nothing of our Revolutionary heroes, and never hear of Benjamin Banneker? They know that Negroes were slaves, you herald that to the world yourselves. But as to other achievements of the race. Well! Let your conscience be your guide—But let's wake up! We are part of the weave and woof of the nation. Let it be known.
AFRICAN WOMEN POWDER NOSES
Philadelphia, Pa., June 10—Mrs. Osa Johnson; wife of Martin Johnson, big game hunter, always found time to powder hair nose. While relating her experiences of four years in the jungles of Africa, Mrs. Johnson asked "Who could love a woman with a alley nose?" Mr. and Mrs. Johnson have spent practically all of their wedded life in the African wilds.
"At first I had difficulty in keeping the Negro women from stealing my powder," she said, "but I put my foot down on that, because I found powder was necessary for my husband's safe. Even in Africa, I could not forget that I had to be good looking for the same
CULVER CITY THURSDAY TO BE SCENE OF GREAT SPEED AND HITTING POWER
You can always tel la real fighter by whether he wants his opponent made to order or not. Not so with Jake Klirrain who burst out of two months' retirement last week like a skyrocket and knocked out his first opponent, a good, tough battler in the brief space of 13 seconds. He did not even know he had been matched to meet George Godrey for his second start but although George outweighs him over 30 pounds he answered when informed of the match: "Well, I will have a chance to show what I can do against big fellows like that. As a rule I can box them better. Their weight never scares me and I don't care who I'm going to box don't care if I see him till I get in the ring with him."
Godfrey and Kilrain will pack the Culver City Stadium. Jimmy Murray predicts a sell-out. Godfrey is already popular there from his knock-out of Jack Roper and Jake's fame has gone on ahead of him. A fine supporting card back up the main event.
UPPER-CUTS
AND BLOCKS

Bah!
Managers! Bah!
Any manager who can't manage is a sorry make-believe of a bum trying to get something for nothing!
In the boxing game there has to be managers—someone supposed to have the interest of the boxer at heart, and see that he is not only given his share of the profits, but also sets that his best deeds get publicity.
But a fighter who has a dumb, double-crossing, 1, mgr, theiring, friend less, selfish joke hung on him, merely because he put his name on the dotted line not knowing what he is up against is in an awful fix and will be until his contract runs out. Sorry managers, who know nothing of the game themselves, and are too much "in bad" to get anything done for the poor fellow who has to take what he can get! Poorly trained, mismatched, probably living from hand-to-mouth. There have been more good boxers ruined by "no good" managers, than there are "gallinippers in a Louisiana swamp. When oh when will the commission put the blink on them and weed them out, for the pick and shovel gang where they belong.
One kind cannot get matches for his poor, willing fighter, and another kind I know can get matches all right but, spoils it all by taking his young, thoughtless boxer out on wild parties of wine, women and swell-head, just to satisfy his own craving for such and because the boxer is supplying more money than the manager has ever seen before.
Speaking of first one thing and then another, don't Lindbergh shine out as a super athlete? Nothing but a perfect body could have made that broad jump, high jump, pole-leaf vault, marathon clear across the big blue. Babe Ruth says, "they shall not pass," meaning the other "circle" stars who started out ahead of him at the beginning or the baseball season. Wouldn't it be great if Helen Wille would join the other heroes in bringing new honors to Uncle Sam by making the wonderful Susanne jump out of the court while "over there?" After all isn't California the greatest place in the world for Sports? Where else would there be a channel swim, a channel out-board race and a skiff skimmers derby all in the same season.

Old Time Colored Fighters I Have Known in Old Bare Knuckle
[EDITOR'S NOTE]: These reminiscences of the old ring days are in interesting from the fact that they happened before "some" of the readers were born and when "sheeks" and "malted milk cow boys" hadn't evolved yet. You had to be a man to box in those days, "in the bag bouts", framing and no decision farces were unknown. Mr. Soto a little Spaniard featherweight at that time in telling of the many boxers he met loves to tell or some of the great Colored fighters in those ancient though glorious days.
To come on down in history, one of the best Colored fighters I met was Tom Ward a featherweight in 1879. In 1899 I met "Black Tom" a great welterweight. Nobody ever heard any other name for Tom.
Charley Turner in 1882 was a great straight puncher and one of the best middleweights in the country.
Back to 1880, by the way, there was Looney Madden whom everyone though crazy but nobody could beat him.
June Dennis, 1883, was a fast light-weight.
Black Diamond, 1885, was another great light-weight.
Hank Griffin (Jaffries boxed him)
was a game, hard bitter.
Jerry Marshall in 1893 came here from Australia but could get no takers for his offers, and no one would even box an exhibition with him. Finally I boxed a four-round hout with him, so Mose Gunz, since then the originator of the Gwl cigar could get a line on Jerry. And so on up to the present day Colored fighters have always stood high in the ranks of Fistlecuffs.

June commencements, June weather, June brides! and all three need comment on, which I shall give in the next issue.
In the meantime hot California daytime weather and cool nights call for special care as to diet, during the summer months as cool weather causes the inducement to over-eating and leaving one unprepared for the next day's heat. Girls should eat meat only once a day during the summer with plenty of vegetables, and fruits at all meals. June brides should not lay down their athletic activities just because they sign up for a lifetime track and field meet, otherwise they will be fat and forty before they know it, undoing all the good that their school athletics brought about. June commencements should be really commencements. A beginning in the full development of the body by athletic training and the clearness of eye, mind and brain that attenuates it, also the cheerful disposition that goes with a healthy body. But as I said above, more about these things next week.

TWO OPPOSITE TYPES MEET IN O'BRIEN-GANS BIG BATTLE
Next Tuesday night, June 21st at the Olympic when Baby Joe Gansand Tommy O'Brien crawl through the hemp, the packed jam of jams will view two absolutely different types or men square off to face each other for a glove dual. Baby Gans the "Young Master" is more like the Old Master than any other boxer who has ever borne that illustrious name. He is a perfect gentleman in the ring and out, quiet, cool, collected and can be found on the West side streets any time near his residence playing hall with his own family and the neighborhood kids. He has never been set down for a foul and often has been known to refrain from punishing an opponent too severely after finding out he had him located. This was shown in the battle against Jack Spar, whom he could have knocked out in the first round. He has never been disqualified for a foul or nor dirty tactics, but he goes about his work of annihilating a rival noxer in a careful business-like way.
O'Brien on the other hand is just the opposite type. True is a "killer" his whole expression in the ring shows fierceness and a cruel desire to do as much damage to a fighter out on his feet as to one alive and coming. Boxers who have fought him say he curses and berates them and the referee in four, angry tones all through the battle and puts venom in every punch. O'Brien has been set down several times for fouling and it is claimed that he did the same to Gans at their last meeting which he won. If so, barring a foul, Gans have just knocked out Gonzales the conqueror of O'Brien enough to be able to do the same to O'Brien by the eighth round.

Wee Philip Le Bron Davis of the Alpha
Tennis Club who parks his Ford
at 1126 E. 20th street, Atlantic 7431
is bushy getting things tamed up for
Alpha's Southern California Champion
ship Tournament, Sunday and Monday,
July 3 and 4 at Jefferson High School
courts
The way the racquet swings are beginning to prepare for the drill makes it look like dimute Philip will have his arms full of troubles by hop off time.
An unusually large crop of young bloods are making ready to grab off the king and queenships while as usual the older heads seem to think they are too good to be dehonored. But "have a care" Juliette, and brother Jimmy Stocks as well.
The July contest of men's and women's singles will serve to prepare locals for the Annual Pacific Coast Championships which the Western Federation of Tennis Clubs is holding Labor Day in Oakland, California.
The Bay Cities Tennis Club of the northern town is planning on receiving more than a thousand northern visitors in September, tennis enthusiasts and others so don't be caught napping as it costs real dough to migrate to the Golden Gate, better begin Hiding pickles and climes now.
By some "miscue" the name and well-buried challenge of the subject of this picture got misplaced and was unpublished. So here he is again and his name is Harry Bubber Johnson, weighing 415 pounds. Johnson has only been here in a few days but his records and clipsings from up north show that he cut a wide streak among the metropolitan he met around Seattle, Portland, Boston and other boxing centers. During his workouts at Verona with the clever Bubber Bang, he has shown the speed and trickles of a lightweight and pleases the crowd of every spectator as much as if it won the first bout they and over seen which means a lot of many good fighters are not crowd members. The most notable as well as the most surprising victory won by Johnson was a clean win over Charles Long now in Australia and one of the best days in the game. His first start here is sure to be a revelation and his debut to meet a well-welder in California ought to make him a nice prospect for the promoter always is need of new material. His manager is Mr Jor. Williams, 51st West Adams St and phone number 0791.

Five Thousand See Beauties Parade
Detroit, Mich., June 11—Twenty-one beautiful girls comprised the list of entries into Michigan's first Bathing Beauty Contest, sponsored by "The Owl." Detroit's leading weekly pictorial, staged here Monday night.
Beauty of form as well as feature was, of course, required of the contestants, and each participant seemed to have been blessed with an abundance of both. So striking was the beauty and so perfect the form that the judges found it a difficult task to award the six prizes and do justice.
A crowd estimated at five thousand poured into the beautiful Arcadia ballroom to witness the contest and to cheer for their favorites and later to dance.
Miss Mildred Whitington was crowned "Miss Michigan," she winning first prize which is a trip to Atlantic City given by the Owl, and other prizes given by various business houses.
Chief among the prizes "Miss Michigan" received is a piece of real estate given by a real estate company her.
ACE FOREMAN IN CHICAGO
Ace Foreman the man around whose name has centered much discussion, favorable and otherwise, since his attempt a month or two ago to span the U. S. continent—West to East—has, according to A. N. P. reports, finally arrived in Chicago amid cheers and criticisms.
Handcapped at the very start by lack of funds, the very thing mainly essential to the success of anything, it is remarkable indeed that he and his mechanic have even reached Chicago, where they made an appeal for funds in their trail blazing effort to place the Negro aviator on the map.
Ace Foreman's effort is not a selfish one he has a purpose and in his effort to carry out that purpose he is entitled at sea the good-will of the public which has been found itself unable or perhaps unwilling to assist him financially.
Nine-tenths of Lindbergh's success to span the Atlantic in a non-stop flight lay in the possibilities of his having acquired money with which to purchase a modern, up-to-date plane. Approximately $25,000 was raised.
Given one-half, yes one-third, this amount, Ace Foreman would have long ago made history in his attempted flight, for he is made of the same material that made, Mat Henson famous, that has given the name Booker T. Washington a place in the hall of fame. That stuff that has made Abbott of Chicago, a mouthpiece the nation over. The Negro has yet to acquire that feeling or responsibility that will make him respond to the worthy cause of such individuals as Ace Foreman and his mechanic. They have the ability to fly and it is to be hoped that Chicago Negees will rise up and do their bit toward helping these worthy boys on their way to secure for the race a place in history of world's aviation.
AUTO LIGHTS LAW RECENTLY ENACTED BRIEFLY EXPLAINED
Many motorists have misinterpreted the wording of the recent law enacted with reference to automotive lighting.
The new law permits the use of two spotlights two roadway lights, two side light, as well as headlights, courtesy lights and stop signals.
The law reads as follows:
Motor vehicles may be equipped with not to exceed two fixed or movable auxiliary lights, mounted below the level of the centers of the headlamps and between or attached to the springhorns.
"Motor vehicles may also be equipped with two side lights, but no more or less.
"Motor vehicles may be equipped with not to exceed two spotlights. Spotlights shall not be used in substitution of headlights."
You will note that this new ruling permits the use of all approved lighting units now so popular on automobiles. The Kay Bee Manufacturing company, one of the old line manufacturers of automotive lighting and signaling equipment, has the approval of the Division of motor vehicles on all of their lights and signals, and, is assisting materially in bringing the lighting/equipment on automobiles into a state of perfection never heretofore attained.
A Miracle of Cohesion
Mr. Ed. Pearl and wife have recently added to their earthly possessions a brand new straight eight Eicar. The Locomobile which served them so well for so long died recently and was buried with Sitting ceremonies in Greenfield's Auto Cemetery.
The celebrated canary colored Packstraight eight that held the limelight so long on the Avenue is reported to be resting easy in the home for aged and infirm automobiles. The owner is looking for another.
The 10th Cavalry Band Major, Wm. H. Hammond, in charge, left last Monday on the return trip to Arizona, via El Centro their home grounds. Eight automobiles and an army service truck transported the party which consisted of more than 30 persons.
Traffic Officer, J. Roseborough, had his private auto with with some black hair his superior accused him of purchasing a firearm and threatened to reduce his salary and increase his hours.
Mr. Wood Wilson journeyed to Hodges Dam near San Diego and spent the week end fishing. He claims he made a wonderful catch. Of course he had some two dozen dandies on the line but we question very much that he caught them. Must or baited with some alcohol—grain.
Traffic Officer, Hendricks, stationed at 7th and Central, can't understand why more fine looking ladies in fine automobiles drive past his corner than any other. Can't be that he's a ladies' policeman.
Mr. and Mrs. Hutchison, Mrs. Wm. Conley and E. L. Dorssey, wife and daughter spent last Sunday visiting Santa Barbara.
Someone is spreading the news that Rev. Lightner has sued his Chevrolet for divorce with the expectation of marrying Miss Dodge, six. While we're natural on the subject we congratulate him if it's so.
Rev. Miller who directs the spiritual welfare of some thousand or more human beings, packed his Studebaker big six in his garage, closed up his bible and left on an earned vacation to Texas this week. Good luck and speedy return.
We hear a certain Nash sedan, popular about town will be on the inactive list for several months. I say we hear.
Recently we heard a certain auto mechanic remark the following about a broken down auto that was brought to him for repairs: This job reminds me very much of a very sick man that belongs to the undertaker going to see a doctor. The owner of this wreck should have stopped at Greenfield's."
Charlie Conner and his Packard were right on the job during the 10th Cavalry box's stay.
Chas. Wilson and his Packard are again all smiles. Maybe they'll tell you why.
NEW TRAFFIC LAWS PLANNED
Plans for the widening of Washington street, to create a great traffic artery from the east side industrial district to the breaches, were advanced when the referees appointed to fix damage awards for the widening of the street from Seguero to Alameda street died last report.
Under the Major Traffic Street Plan of the Traffic Commission, Washington street is to Mo. wrapped to 100 feet below. Flowering to connection with Masonville and Lorraine street, on the opposite of the river. The Los Angeles River will be crossed on a new bridge authorized under the 1925 bridge bond issue.
Separate proceedings are under way for the section between Alameda street and Milnes avenue. Estimated to cost $40,000, the city will pay, as its share, $261,008 out of the major traffic fund.
ACCURATE ESTIMATING
Keep Your Car In Mechanical Trim
Importance of the mechanical condition of cars operated on the street and highways was stressed in a recent address by S. J. Williams, Director of the Public Safety Division of the National Safety Council, according to the National Automobile Club. Ten points for the reduction incident may be: 1. Good mechanical condition; the
2. Good mechanical condition of other cars operated on the street.
3. Streets in good condition.
4. Proper traffic control, signal lights, officers, signs, etc.
5. Proper traffic laws and regula.
8. Education of the general public.
9. Law enforcement.
Accurate information on numbers
cause and location of acci-
dence
"Keep your car in good condition," declared Williams. "That means periodic inspection of the brakes, steering gear, tires and other vital points in the equipment. Drive safely at all times and obey the regulations." "Many of the essentials for safety are primarily up to the City government. This includes keeping the streets in good condition, providing an up-to-date system of reporting and analyzing all street accidents." Driving an automobile through water is not a good idea for pedestrians is a common pastime with motorists who have peculiar ideas of what constitutes a joke. It is a dangerous joke for the driver, who may have to pay some cleaning bills, and for the pedestrian, whose discommitment may cause an accident. Avoid racing through mud puddles when pedestrians are near.
PATROLMAN ON THE JOB
It was early Sunday morning that one of Los Angeles' prominent colored citizens with a party of friends breezed through a boulevard stop at Washington and Vermont, unconsciously. Suddenly he heard the familiar whistle of a policeman and looking in the direction of the sound saw a handsome-looking uniformed officer beckon him to stop in a business like manner, which of course, he did. Vision of a sixty-day sentence and a five-dollar fine appeared before the violator's mind as the officer politely inquired of the driver why he did not obey the boulevard sign to stop, and at the same time asked for the driver's operator's license, which was hastily produced. "What about your license not in front?"
"Lost it," was the reply, "but have applied for another."
"Where is the receipt?"
"Left it at home."
"Murder! Let me see the registration card."
"That's home too."
"Well, I am sorry, but I guess I have to place all these charges on the ticket."
Finally, recovering from the unusual sight of being stopped by an officer, the driver started in to tell his sible of a serious situation. The officer listened attentively. He carefully weighed the well-balanced argument and piece of the frightened driver and decided with a sharp reprimand that had more effect on the guilty than a tense fall sentence to let him go upon the promise that he would sin no more. Thanks, H. D. A.
The practice of adjusting the brakes while the rear of the car is supported on jack shoes should be avoided as the car is likely to be gendered and posed. This condition is especially bad should one side of the car be jacked up higher than the other. The best method is to adjust the brakes on the road, with the car running under the most severe operating conditions which may be encountered.
CARE OF YOUR MOTOR LUBRICATION
The following information as regards motor lubrication is advanced by Albert J. Clough and is here printed for its value to the general motoring public.
Thanks to Harry Levette on behalf of the auto public for steering the editor unto this valuable bit of news.
ADAPTING LUBRICATION TO WARM WEATHER
Heavier Bodied Lubricants Are Re-
Heavier Bodied Lubricants Are Re-
quired. Then in Winters
quired than in winter. Motorists who own cars for whom their manufacturers recommend a change of lighter grade of engine oil during the higher grade of engine oil should lect to "switch" back to the heavier grade as soon as freezing weather ceases. The recommendation to use light engine oil in winter is not made because it is inherently a better lubricant than medium (or in some instances) heavy oil, but rather because it uses lessess cold weather starting difficulties and reduces the danger of lubrication shortcomings arising from the failure of very cold, thick oil to flow properly. The grade of oil recommended for summer or ordinary use is the grade regarded by the manufacturer as the most advantageous. Every car that has been kept in service during the winter, especially if its garage is unheated, has necessarily had to have the lubricant in its rear axle and transmission housings sufficient and connected to the capacity of flooring and distributing properly over bearings and gears at the low temperatures then prevailing. The addition of a suitable proportion of oil to the tank cylinder oil or ogr compound in the housings is the usual method. With the thick of warm weather, this specially mixed lubricant becomes too thin to fully cushion gear action and to give the quickest operation and minimum rate of wear and moreover, its unnecessary fluidity causes it to escape rapidly from any slight leaks there may be around shafts or through joints in housings. At the end of cold weather this lubricant should be completely drawn off from transmission and rear axle, their housin gs supplied with kerosine to the usual level, the car run with a jacked-up rear wheel for a minute or two to wash off stale lubricant and particles of matter mixed in the oil, preferably drilled off and the housings filled to the recommended level with steam cylinder oil or whatever grade or brand of lubricant the car manufacturer recommends. With a housing having no drain opening at its lowest point, but only a filling opening partway up the side, an oil gun with a curved suction tube is required. Service stations have powerful devices for this purpose and can do this work very speedily.
16 STATES GIVE GAS TAX BOOST
Sixteen states have increased their gasoline taxes since January this year, in amounts from one half to two cents. It is estimated that the increased revenue will amount to approximately $33,000,000 as a result. New Jersey voted a gasoline tax for the first time, starting with two cents. Illinois, New York and Massachusetts are the only states which do not have gas taxes at the present time.

Windsor, Ontario, June 10.—The Wolverine Speedway Association held its first international Colored Championship Auto Race at Devonshire Speedway here Monday. Rain the previous day prevented the track being in perfect condition through the remarkably fast time of 85 seconds flat for circling the 1½ miles track was made by Cannonball Jones of Kansas City, Kansas, while qualifying according to the announcer. The fastest time made in the actual race was made by Barney Anderson driving a Kissel car whose time was 1 minute, 4 seconds.
