EASTSIDE CITIZENS CALL CRIMEHALT 1879 CHINESE LOTTERY CROOKS ROUTED CHINESE LOTTERY CROOKS ROUTED The swiftness and dispatch in which Eastside citizens went after the brazen Orientals who had the temerity to seek the bounty of the fearful Chinese Lottery in this section sent the Chinese to the tall timbers and it is to be hoped they will remain there for all time to come. As choreographed in this paper, the lottery joints open up in full blast on last Saturday in even a more brassen manner than ever before. The Chinese writers would stand before their devious and openly solicit passers by for the purchase of tickets to the drawing. On at Sunday on East Washington Street, Chinese peddlers of tickets were going from door to door seeking purchasers of their tickets. Every vacant space on Central was sought for with fancy rents by the Chinese gamblers; for it is evident somebody had promised them they could go forth unselected. FORCES GET BURY Their dream for the mitching of the dimes and nickels from the unsophisticated and credulous was however, short lived, for the law holding citizens rose up in righteous indignation, and sonnight out solutions for this evil. BETTER SUFFRAGE LEAGUE STARTS BALL ROLLING The Better Sailing League in regular, better assesment, perhaps Monday night, at the law enforcement headquarters, upon the law enforcement heads at once. This committee, composed of Dr. H. C. Hudson, D. C. Taylor, Titus Alexander, J. H. Heds, and Dr. J. A. Somerley, and the president of the League. As good as they felt about it, they went direct before the Police Commission itself, presented their case and had a hearing. the situation was freely discussed and whether it bore results can but be attested from the fact that the joints complained of law closed as tight as an air proof vault. BACK UP BETTER SUFFRAGE LEAGUE The Federated Clubs organizations, whose secretary, R. G. Lamar 'oined in with the protest to the Police Commission, held a special meeting Tuesday afternoon, passed resolutions condemning this latest effort to revive this insidious Chinese Lottery game. They also passed resolutions commending the Better Suffrage League for its splendid and prompt action and the Marlowe Detective Agency for its very splendid cooperation. The following resolution was passed: Whereas: This organization stands at all time for law and order to the highest degree; Whereas: It comes to the knowledge of the Federated Clubs here assembled that the menace of the nefarious Chinese lottery has been foisted in our midst; Whereas: These Orientals are even now plying their work of conducting unlawful gambling deans, putting solicitors on the streets in the section of our city known as the Eastside; Whereas: This insidious and kindred forms of gambling take from circulation in legitimate channels of trade these kinds of dollars and business suffers accordiary; Therefore Be It Resolved: That we look upon this situation as unlawful, unfair and unjust; Be it further Resolved: That we call upon all law enforcement agencies of our city government for a diligent enforcement of the law to the end that this menace which is inimical to the morals and economic status of the citizenship shall be wiped out. Be it further resolved: That copy of these resolution be sent to the mayor, chief of police, police commissioners and to the public press for publication. Federation Of The Clubs And Organizations The above movement to win temporary organization is making a conscientious effort that every legitimate organization may have a role in all movements for the benefit of our group at large. There is no room, for those who have selfish motives in the premises, but if you are earnestly interested in real race achievement, there is much Sheffield and Randolph On Trial For Murder Next Wednesday Next Wednesday 10:00 A. M., in Judge Elliot Crane department of the Superior Court, the much discussed case of the People vs Sheffield and Randolph, will take place and a jury of their peers will hear all the evidence on behalf of the state and the defense and render its verdict. The latest group vine news is that the Officers Brown and Duly, have recounted their previous testimony before the grand jury and from this on it is thought that emotional disarray has brought higher alms. Brown and Duly are reported out on a nominal bail, requiring them to report the same day that the trial of Sheffield and Randolph comes up. MUCH CONCERN The case is dear to draw a record crowd of our group and we predict seats at a press conference when the case is called. Down in the sections where Sheffield and Rainham were wilt to perform, the daisies thereof in lower tire of talking about their spectacular raids and commends thereto. One favorite: wrist of Sheffield, they say say, when he would make a rake of money, he would exclaim "Every Dub" meaning each man, or woman for themselves, in remembrance of this education, some of posts have written this verse: "Hands and Sheffield are now in this can; They are now where they put many a man. Men's lives with sorrow these men did bedmil: 'Every tub on its bottom,' their days are dim. Another verse: "Oh how they have-beaten and put men in jail!

The Pageant "Out of the Past" has been successfully staged in the East. It is a gripping, soul-stirring story of the struggles, achievements and hopes of the Negro Race covering a period of history of more than 3000 years. It has been enthusiastically received by the leading whites and Negroes in the cities where it was given. The following is a statement by the Topeka State Journal, Topeka, Kanag after the Pageant was presented there last April. "Mrs. Lillian J. Crow should write another Payman, one as good as Gut on the Belt," presented in the City Auditorium. Thursday night to 8,000 persons and send it to an Eastern Producer.

MISSOURI BUSBY MASTERLY WOMAN BY LOUISE MICHEL Upon her long sturdy shoulder, Well the noble task to win most noble bravery for the simple race through her victories. And naturally the highest graduation. No race woman anywhere today, can be happier than Missouri Busy of 2102 Amy Street. Her luckiest day since her birth, a good many years ago, came last Friday, June 17th where life, in class, people, teaching in age from 17 to 58, thrived with high honors at the Polytechnic High School, this city. She was the long star member and the only representative of the Ethiopian race to attain this coveted distinction. For fully two years by day and night, Missouri Busy had wended her steps to this great institution, never missing a day, utilizing every hour for her characteristic earnestness, no graduate withheld from her either as or her esteem and all the teachers and faculty were one sound united chorus in praising and in honoring this remarkable and distinguished girl woman. Since last September, this brave herpine had studied doubly hard and twice long and also learned and taught a famous pioneer, mage woman, for like air-hero, Lindbergh, she was the first and only race pathfinder in this city in her line to reach this glorious stage of wisdom, originality and success. She pointed with modest pride toward the west section of her own private room in her well-appointed, cleanly-kept, ample family home, where many of 32 present were stored under her bed by both white and dark clothing friends and adults this woman of thought, master of humor, unexcellent and well-strait, and resolute New family. Never before in the history of the hotel still taciturn bestow on many inhabitants. In an interview this scholar lady told this writer, "I followed this work because I liked the task of study. Of the many different nationalities and races represented, the color line was never drawn, we were almost all white, loyal and considerate herself. I always tried to conduct myself in such a manner as to be able to do so without it. It was to do so that I trolled in and won over the author that it is the good, thoughtful man that country, and the character and achievements of the person that brighten up the world." And as she apoke, she tenderly and carelessly took from the carefully kept enclosure her graduation certificate, which she treasures as much as -Colonel Lindbergh treasures, his "Birth of St. Louis", and as much as this nation now treasures, or should treasure, the immortal speech by Abraham Lincoln, delivered at Gettysburg. The many friends of Dr. D. Madison Miller and Mrs. Miller of Kansas City, Mo. who sailed for Europe June 3rd on the S. Olympic, may be pleased to learn that they arrived safe and are now in London, England. The ocean trip was made without incident and they and the entire party are reported to be having a wonderful time. The tour was sponsored by Dr. A. Wilberforce Williams of Chicago and the itinerary includes a general European tour returning the latter part of September. The entire party consisted of the following: Dr. D. Madison Miller and Mrs. Miller and Dr. and Mrs. Glideon Brown of Kansas City, Mo.; Dr. A. Wilberforce Williams, Chicago; Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune, New York City; Mrs. Cora Pucan, New York City; Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Webb, Hot Springs, Ark; Dr. Thomas A. Kay and Dr. and Mrs. Tedley, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Dr. G. W. Hughman, Richmond, Ind.; W. A. Mitchell, Chicago. This information was just received from London, England by Mr. John B. Frierson 9719 York Street, brother of Mrs. Miller. COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES We are duly proud concerning our educational progress, when, we look about us at this time. On last Wednesday evening, when Jefferson High threw open her portals to the public in her graduation exercises, in the line of march there were 26 dark faces and the intellectual light shown as brilliant on these faces as any who composed a part of the parade. Among whom were: Misses Dorothea McCollough, well-known local songbird, Robinson, Harriet Brown, Dorothy Armstrong and Messrs. Leon Perdue and others. ROBERT V. EDWARDS Among these honor students who occupied the first row and appeared on the program was Miss Robert V. Edwards, eminent pianist. Miss Edwards, popular pianist. Miss Ederson High School because of the record she has made in the music department, but also in the city of Los Angeles where she was reared. She is determined to be one of the best pianists of the country. She will be available second for herself. Poly High—There are four colored graduates from Portsmouth High this term. Bentrix, Hartman who will enter either Fitz or Hammett; Graces Gouxux who will enter U. S. C.; Mary Priebus who will enter U. S. L. A. and Samia Johnson. There are other graduates of our group from other Los Angeles high schools, and we are sorry that we are unable to give a full report on any IN TOPEKA BY: C. A. R. On the evening of March 10, as we sat upright in a sleeping coach that whirred out of St. Louis—then and not until then, did we fully realize that 'the six months' vacation, granted as by our company was coming to a close, and the time was nearing when we should again roll back our alassees and occupy our former place in the establishment known as "The California Publishing Co." The trip from St. Louis to Kansas City was under the cover of night, hence nothing particularly interesting transpired. We reached Kansas City, Mo., at 7 A. M., March 11th. Having only thirty minutes we did not leave our car; only looked out from the open window and noted that the smoke stacks of the great packing houses of this industrial center were puffing away at the same rapid rate. Our attention was centred on Topeka, Kansas, and it was not many hours before a very pleasing colored porter appeared demonstrating a set or pearl white teeth, as he in his melo-tened voice yelled, "Topeka Topeka Kansas, next stop!"—And when our train puffed in it was 10:30 A. M. We had no trouble recognizing this historic little Kansas City for with the exception of a new railroad station few changes had been made since 1911, when we made our first visit there. We were cordially received by Mrs. Nick Childs at the "Topeka Plainslander" office and royally entertained the one day spent in Topeka at the Childs mansion, next door to the Governor palatial residence on Buckingham Ave. The Negro population of Topeka is about three thousand—they own one small, rather dingy, more house. We observed two small karer schools, a few little lunch rooms and some grocery concerns of small dimention. The lower grade schools of Topeka are segregated, and then of thirty or forty Negro school teachers of a rather high educational type in the city. In the market places our attention was attracted to groups of Negroes discussing farms and farm products. They seemed to understand market prices, and were interested in getting the best prices for their goods, yet in the best way. The day spent in Topeka was indeed one among the most pleasant on our "back to home" crusade. A trip such as ours was one of many emotions. The rapid changing scenes at intervals filled our heart with hop and despair. However, all along we encountered two distinctive groups within our group, and from New York to San Francisco they struggle side by side. The one group is made up of those who want for themselves and their posterity a solid foundation—financially, morally and socially—upon which to staid and to build a race. And they are willing to struggle for the same, but there is a little wheel within this wheel, for within this first group we find an element willing to build, but from an artificial standpoint. They wish to make a show, to be initiators. They hold themselves apart from the others, under the caption of "Social Elite," and whenever there is contact it is with the intention of slipping the financial honey from the human bees of their own life, and relegating themselves into their own social seclusion. Then, there is that other group made up of the underworld strife and the illiterate poor: the one feeding on the other. Of this second class we get most of our political bosses, and as a rule they are neither poor nor ignorant, but selfish, and the poor among or under them schooled in vice are the ones that suffer, and they constitute the "masses." After looking the situation in the late, reviewing its merits and demos, we so illocitated—IS God JUST? At midnight on the evening of March 11, we left Topsail on our last lap for home. "Be it ever so humble, there is no place like home." We went out over the Rains Fe- and came to over the U. P. As our train of twoway one moose rumbled through that region of taw- ering, welping mountain; we said 'NO! GOD IS NOT DEAD. He lived yesterday and He lives today!' The News STOP!!! THAT COUGH ROY L.

GOLD COAST LIMITED UP FOR BID At last the great suspense is over with, and the boys can take a full breath once more, as it has been decided to give the Gold Coast Limited, crack transcontinental train to Chicago to the Los Angeles district permanently. This is good news for some and bad news for others. By that I mean it is good news for those who are able to hold it, and bad news for those whose seniority is somewhat lacking in security. Chicago is a great town as many of the porters who have been operating on the Gold Coast can testify. On account of the present condition of the extra board it is thought that this train will bring forth some strong bidding. SUPERINTENDENT HOLDS SERVICE MEETING T. A. Sima Makes Strong Appeal for Employees, Plan A service meeting was held last week in the Southern Pacific Yards in which service matters were discussed by porters and officials. Many things were brought to light, which have heretofore been in the dark, Mr. T. A. Simsore, noted orator of the Los Angeles District, made an urgent appeal to the porters in the interest of the E. R. Plan, stating that the Plan would function to the porters' interest if given another trial. Mr. L. A. Coffin also gave a short talk on the same subject, also Mr. Arthur, Dist. Supt. Mr. Calvin W. Murdock, Los Angeles' last representative was present but had very little to say maintaining an attitude that a still tongue makes a wise head: something unusual for a lawyer. The writer spoke on the valor of porter E. A. Thompson, recent Los Angeles District hero. The chief speakers of the meeting were District Supt. J. L. Arthur, Mr. L. A. Coffin and T. A. Simsore, and the Chief subject was the Plan. A fair crowd was in attendance. PORTERS Why all these extra porters? Los Angeles has about 65 Porters on the list running extra when about 30 could handle the work. Who is responsible for this overflow? and why so many men? Mr. Coffin should get busy if it is in his power and do some more shipping to other districts. Porters now on the extra board are barely able to make a good living, something should be done and done at once to relieve this condition. BROADWAY LIMITED HAS BIRTHDAY The Broadway Limited, crack Pennsylvania railroad flier between New York and Chicago, was 25 years old last week. Passengers on the train were served birthday cake in celebration of the event. Several of the original crew members were on the train as guests of H. E. Newcomet, General Manager of the road at Chicago. HOW COME G. W.? Last week a certain popular porter, whose initials are G. W., was seen to drive up to the Santa Fe Depot in a great, big, White roadster with some friends and for Texas on a home-bound train for Texas. He had his head stuck up in the air like a thousand dollar race horse, as he passed by H. L. Armstrong who is well acquainted with the gentleman and who asked for a word with the big butter and egg man, but he gave him the high hat. Now, what we want to know, G. W. is, How Come? Why the hurry? Was the car borrowed? We did not see any license number. Better watch your step, old kid. MRS. C. SMITH NO. 2 TO VISIT It won't be long now, that's what C. Smith No. 2 was saying last week, and we found out the reason was Mrs. Smith is planning a visit to Columbus, Ohio soon. Smith is a whole lot better off than the most or us because he can cook. TRAVELING CHEF THOMAS HAR RISON HURT FOOT Southern Pacific's crack traveling Chef has been working all hard lately, that his dogs run hot on him and he was forced to take some air for a few days. James A. Gray, President Red Caps Association, Makes Correction of No Error Week Statement A statement published in this column giving credit to the head porter of the arcade station and several others for a 180 per cent showing during No Error week has been termed wrong by President James A. Gray of the Red Caps and Janitoria Association. Mr. Gray states that the first two weeks of the month of May were set aside by the executive committee of the Red Cross Association as No Error week and out of 18 per cent these three weeks made unacceptable they have approved and fully. No attempts this past week to look at co-operation in the Association. While they have a membership roll of a 100 per cent in reality they did is a hard matter to murder up over a 45 per cent attendance. The following porters are responsible for what profitable showing is made by the Association: James A. Gray, W. H. Benson, J. Amstrup, R. Scott, R. J. Sandroy and S. W. Thompson.

BY: MATT SOLOMON The Groom-Harris nuptials were solemnized at the First A. M. E. Church on last Saturday night with the Rev. J. M. Brown officiating. The Church was very beautifully decorated by Mrs. Daisy Barrett who has proven herself quite an artist in this line. This wedding ceremony was one of the most brilliant affairs that has happened in Pasadena for years. The church was crowded to capacity to witness the occasion. After the ceremony a reception was given at the home of the brides parents on South Oak Knoll avenue. Long before the evening had been well spent the young couple was forcibly spirited away and when last heard of was on their way to San Diego to spend a brief honeymoon. Mrs. Georgia Fitch, of Homestead Pa. is the guest of her sister, Mrs. Hazel Davis, on South Oak Knoll avenue. Wm. Wm. Williams of South Fair Oaks avenue departed this life last Saturday night at his home after a very short illness from the effect of the "Flu" which generated an agravated attack of pneumonia. Mr. Williams and his wife were the proprietors of the Blue Grass Laundry. He was a well known character having resided in Pasadena many years. Mrs. Stollworth, who was taken very ill suddenly which necessitated a hurried trip to the hospital under orders from Dr. Whittaker is reported as improving very nicely under the conditions of her case. Mrs. May Smith of Oak Knoll avenue is going along very nicely the unable yet to leave her bed. Miss Geneva Stocks has gone to the beach to spend the summer. The girls of the Allia Unique Club were the hostess to a party last Thursday honoring the graduates of the Class 27 at the residence of Miss Mary Jones on Allessandro street. Dancing and games were the modes of amusement, with refreshments helped to make the evening one of pleasure. The graduates were as follows: Francis Birch; Rosalind DePriest; Allene Clark; Stella Brownlee; Ehylene Hunter; Eunice Windsor; Norman Duncan and Sumner Politeer. Placards are out announcing the opening of the great Industrial Fair and Exhibit at, Friendship Baptist Church the week of the 18th of July. This exhibition and display is to be bigger and better by far than the one last year and more varied. Dr. W. D Carter, the original promoter, has since his return injected a deal or enthusiasm into the project and things are moving along nicely. A reception was given by the Sunday School of the First A. M. E. Church on last Thursday night complimentary to the graduates of Class 27 to which a large crowd was present. Mr. and Mrs. Watkins of West Washington are spending a few days vacationing on the beach near Santa Barbara. Grant Brothers Branch Out The Grant Brothers, who have made their influence felt are again in the limelight with a contemplated move to venture into the hog-raising business in Albambra. The senior member of the firm, Russell, was a placer in the rubish hauling business which increased to such proportions as to necessitate the help of the brother Earl, who was then a chef on N. Y. Central railroad. He immediately resigned that position to join his brother in the hauling business, which is yet on the increase. Having made it possible to get food stuffs to feed his hogs which have hitherto been sold to the city, they will now use the same for their own benefit. These boys are to be congratulated and we further learn there is another or the boys who is to join the firm, which will greatly strengthen their financial standing. Mrs. M. R. Caviness and Mrs. B. P. Johnson were the hostesses to a beautiful dinner party given last Thursday afternoon at the home, of Mrs. Caviness on E. 21st street, when a four-course dinner was served to a party of fifteen ladies honoring Mrs. Minnie Abritton Jackson who is soon to return to her home in the East. The color scheme of pink and white was carried out very beautifully in the dining rooms: After the luncheon, quite a few of the ladies remained for the evenings affair when a large-group gathered to listen to an exceptional musical program featuring Mrs. Jackson. Quite a lovely time was spent in various ways until a late hour when all departed declaring Mesdames Caviness and Johnson ideal hostesses. Mr. Homer Jones on East 114th St is improving his property by building a garage to house a beautiful 5-passenger car. Press and public have been loud in their praises of the work done by the teachers of East Side School and have commended highly the exceptionally fine series of closing exercises. But throughout it all there was a tinges of sadness. Parents as well as pupils reacted to the parting with two of the teachers who have so faithfully and efficiently served the school and community. After two years as eight grade teacher, and two years as teacher in the high school, Mrs. Ruth Prince McGregor resigned her work here to make her home in Los Angeles. In addition to her excellent work as class room teacher, Mrs. McGregor was assigned to work with the Girl Reserves. The girls have proffited much through the work of this organization. Not only they imbibed the Girl Reserves' spirit, but they have been taught executive ability and dependability in duties. Mrs. Mattie S. Nelson after a service or six years resigned to accept the position of Executive Secretary of the Twelfth Street Center, Los Angeles. Her departure makes a distinct loss in the faculty. During the past three years she has acted as Vice-Principal; she has served on the County Board of the Y. W. C. A. and has most acceptably represented the race in this capacity. She has been advisor to the High School Girl Reserves and to the Blue Triangle. Affable, capable, and openly loyal to the cause she champions, she has proved a most splendid teacher. Both ladies carry with them the blemishes of a grateful community who very much appreciate their services. City Superintendent Gruwell, openly commends the teachers and insisted that instead of resigning, they take a leave of absence for one year. Numerous parties,ceptions and kindred entertainments were extended Mesdames McGregor and Nelson by the mulls and parents. The Southern Pacific Magazine for June carries a picture and description of the beautiful home recently erected by Mr. and Mrs. R. P. Augustus. Under the caption "Rolling out a home," the article tells how Augustus came to El Centro in 1918 and by faithful performance with the Southern Pacific Company and the assistance of a thirty wife he has been enabled to "roll out" the cozy home. The picture of Mr. and Mrs. Augustus appear in the magazine. At this beautiful home a public reception was given commencement week, honoring teachers, graduates and Dr. S. M. Beane. EASTSIDE SCHOOL GRADUATES In the presence of a crowd of friends which taxed the capacity of the school auditorium, a splendid program for the fourth annual commencement of the East Side branch, Central Union High School and Junior College was carried out last night in a manner that deeply impressed all who were fortunate enough to be present. The audience included many from the west side of the city. The program, under the supervision of Professor W. A. Payne, principal of the school, was an excellent demonstration of the work which he and his staff are doing to promote the education and welfare of the residents of the East Side. Featuring the program was an exceptionally well delivered address by Dr. S. M. Beane of Los Angeles on the subject: "The Secret of the Tomorrow," in which the speaker emphasized the need of unselfish service by individuals and nations. Aside from Dr. Beane's address, the entire program was conducted by students and faculty of the school. Dr. Beane prefaced his address with a well deserved tribute to Professor Payne for the splendid work which he is doing on the East Side as the leader of the educational work among his people, for the inspiration he gives them by his devotion to their interpersonal performance of duties entrusted to him by the community in which he lives.

YOU'RE NEXT BY: Gladyce Greenaway Well last night was our first visit to the fight and what we mean we were sure tickled to death.

We think Baby Joe Bans is M-high-y-fine and anyone thinking to the conference meet me outside. Do I hear anything—ah silence! How wondrous deep thou art.

When You Need ICE SERVICE CALL RELIABLE ICE DELIVERY 937 East 22nd Street ATlantic 7006 P. E. LEWIS, Prop. Piano Recital of Lorenza Jordan Cole Masterly BY: LOUIS MICHEL This Piano genius is one of the best that can be heard. A gratified audience showed their approval. Emma Smith is a good local singer. The concert was splendid and well patronized. Being a charmed and a convinced listener to the excellent Piano discourse on Tuesday, June 7, 9:00 P.M. at the First A. M. E. Church, of Lorenza Jordan Cole, with Rev. W. D. Miller, the pastor, and Elmer C. Bartlett, the director, as principal artistic backers, the whole audience must have felt, when hearing the unusual and entirely originally-artistic playing of this artist that a new Piano star has risen in the midst of an admiring soul-inspired host of auditors. Her Beethoven Sonata, Op. 53 was deep, powerful and beyond the ordinary performer's deliverance—it was really classical and slime in the whole length of its rendition. The player showed the rarest skill in playing this heavy and difficult piece. Her Chopin numbers were alluringly pretty and so different from the performances or less gifted -Planets. Cachmaninoff. Coleridge Taylor in Negro melodies and other renowned classical composers were finely represented and never in the history of this city has a race artist of the Piano made a finer, grander and more lasting impression upon a gratified and stimulated audience than Lorenza Jordan Cole. Of her can be truly said that she pleases at all times and never takes a big audience—and, indeed, her audience was big, enthusiastic and refined. No one can foretell how great and popular this artist will grow yet, it looks as if the zenith of her greatest career is yet to be reached. Perhaps, in a broader field, in Canada, in Australia and in Europe, she may blossom to larger fruition than here in America, where her opportunities are more limited. There is a pathos and a power and a commanding superiority in her heavier bars of Planistic skill that make her playing filled with naturalness and realism; she thunders her thunderous effects, she howls, with the storm, she shrieks, with the demons, she runs with the fleeing impas as she, in her more brilliant and lighter work, dances with the elfs, fullbables with the moth-erless child's sympathizer, caresses with the lover, and cries with the mournful, wretched loser in life. All the emotions of the human actor, all the life, the fury and the flavor of the raging elements are in Lorenza Jordan Cole's playing, there is no guess work, no uncertainty about her conception of art, realism and idealism, in every phase of her work she is a grand and ripe and glorious artist and she deserves and is like enough to play in the largest concert halls in this and any country. Doubtless if Lorenza Jordan Cole comes to this city again, she may play to even a much larger audience than she had this last time, for her fame, like good old wine, is securely established, and no one, including our very best Pianists in this city, can withhold the honor laurels from this worthy and still greater growing genius. She was very fittingly and at times, so needfully, on account of her physical intensity and consequential bodily strata, assisted by Mrs. Emma Smith, who is a most delightful as well as powerful soprano singer, perhaps more of a dramatic type than anything else, judging by her moving inward force that she injects in her solos. Mrs. Smith must have done some larger work somewhere in the world, because she bears the earmarks or the popular professional singer in all of her vocal and dramatic exertions. As a local star singer, she is very good—she is entirely good enough to sing before audiences that expect nice and pleasing things and she was not unworthy to be assistant artist on the program. The crowd was splendidly handled by nearly gowned ushers and the affair was very invigorating. FLOOD DISTRICT (By: A. N. P.) Natchez, Miss, June 20.—The crest of the great Mississippi flood has passed. Almost as rapidly as it came the all enveloping avalanche of muddy water which terrifyingly and irresistibly engulfed 650,000 people, driving them from their homes, for the most part penniless and without food and shelter, is disappearing toward the gulf as the land becomes "unwatered." Now they face the aftermath. Of the 580,000 refuges cared for by the Red Cross 525,000 of them were in three southern states, Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana, and 80 per cent of these were Negroes. Half a million colored people today tremble on the brink of ruin as they bravely turn back from the concentration camps and face the desolation, the mud and slime, as well as the discouraging outlook surrounding what they once called "home." Why were so many Negroes affected by the flood? So that those not familiar with the immense delta region held in the grip of the rampaging Mississippi River may understand, the 20,000 square miles which the flood put under water and the territory immediately abutting it "is the blackest spot in all America." Not alone because of the plantation, share cropper system, whose unfit, uneconomic and unsound methods make a great dark splotch on the map of America's vanquished commercial and agricultural progress; but also because, except for the cities and villages, where the whites always outnumber the blacks, the Negroes in the back country and plantations outnumber the whites who control them, six and eight to one. One may ride for miles through this country, back from the railroads and civilization without ever once seeing a white face peer out of the "shot gun" cabins which are the usual shelter. The white people having more money were largely able to flee to other sections when the flood threatened. Only the miserably poor whites had to live upon charity and share the refuge camps with their black brothers. But the Negroes dependent upon their farming and the "advances" in food and supplies made by the planter, saw their all held in bondage when the water closed in upon their homes. Even their advances are gone, for except in rare instances the planter was unable or unwilling to make further provision for his tenants. The crop on which he had gambled already was swept away and whatever amount he had already extended he must count as a loss unless the tenant returned. What are these people to do? Experts on the ground who talked with members of the Colored Advisory Commission on the Mississippi Flood Disaster, freely admitted that only a few in the northern sections, would be able to make a crop this year. Cotton is doomed to boll weevil and worms unless planted before the middle of June. Some attempt could be made at diversification with other crops. The outlook of their getting a foothold in other sections of the country with unemployment widespread from coast to coast is not bright. Therefore Secretary Herbert Hoover, the Red Cross and the rehabilitation committees, which are taking the place of the relief committees, are endeavoring to find a way to support these hundreds of thousands of Negroes and the relatively fewer whites, until next year when a new crop can be made. For the first time the flood situation has been recognized as a national problem. The Red Cross is mapping out a comprehensive program, with the balance of fourteen million dollars a generous public contributed, to start the job. When congress convenes it is expected that additional provision will be made. Secretary Hoover and Director Fleser have already started an extensive campaign through the Red Cross with public health doctors and nurses and special workers to cover every swamp and bit or open water in the flood district, exterminating mosquitos, to inspect and purify the water in every well and to conduct a campaign of health education so well begun in a few of the camps so that no epidemic of disease or pestilence may occur. It is estimated that 2,000 horses and cattle, 20,000 hogs and 250,000 chicken were drowned. A start to replace these animals and towls will be made. Food will have to be provided for an entire year for the small landowner, the cropper, or tenant who has not sufficient credit to secure a loan. Under the plan outlined the plantation owner is not to be helped. His land is collateral enough for whatever money he needs for himself and his tenants and he can secure it from the special finance corporations being formed to loan money for a long term at a low rate. If these plans are carried into effect, it is probable that there will be no pronounced migration, for despite the small return for their labor, the plantation system, the three months school term, the oppressive conditions under which they live, with poor whites endeavoring to set up an aristocracy over them practically all of the farmers declare their intention of "going back home when the water goes down." Leave It To Madame Sul-Te-Wan BY: HELLEN KENLIN Leave it to Madame to put something over for the director that is pleasing to him and all others concerned. But Madame, unlike other stars, doesn't care for much publicity and she is not aired in te papers every day, but when you read about her, it is something worth while and true. Sunday, June 12, 1927, on the Universal lot, where she is doing some wonderful work for Director Harry Pollard (for he says so), she had just been introduced to Mr. Williams and the Captain of the 10th Cavalry Band by Dr. Somerville and wife, and found out that Mr. Williams had know her years ago when she was in her prime and had a company of her own, when Mr. Pollard called for her. She was to act in the picture, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" and she had to run out with the rest of the cast. She was to kneel down in front of the horses and pray, but a horse ran wild and ran over her left leg taking her shoe completely off her foot. Her sons started running to her and just as the drove or horses came down upon her, a gallant young colored boy, by the name of Jack, also in the picture, ran in and grabbed her and saved her life. This bit of near tragedy was portrayed accidentally, but the camera man never stopped grinding and the director came off the stand and said that he did not want anyone in the picture hurt, but of all people he could not stand it when it came to Madame. He also said that that scene was worth $500 to the picture and he could not have gotten it any other way for it would have been too dangerous. Madame is a real actress and we hope that some day she will really get something worth while to do. On any set you find her there is always someone to say that she is a D. W. Griffith find and the only Ethiopian he found and put before the public that we all know. Madame and D. W. have nothing to regret by making this little black actress good. She is proud when you call her black. Madame was going to sell her Hollywood home, but her neighbors won't let her. She is the only one of her type on Beverly Boulevard.

Lower California For the past ten or fifteen days rumors have come to us quite frequently that Hugh E. Macheth had been exhonored of all the charges that we had preferred or tried to prefer against him before the District Attorney, the L. A. County Grand Jury, and the Bar Association, and that Hugh E. Macheth had started or would start soon a suit against us for slander. It is our presumption that this rumor is being attributed by Macheth himself or some of his admirers. The purpose can only be to divert our activities in the publication of these articles. If this on the case, we can only inform the big fat attorney and his admirers that their purposes are all in vain and loudly rattles in emptiness. "We are from Missouri, Brother, and you will have to show us." When the charges were heard at the Bar Association, we were told by those gentlemen that it would be thirty days or more before their decision would be rendered. If Macbeth has been exonerated by them, we have had no notification from them if the same. The L. A. County Grand Jury that was investigating the case against Macbeth was dischärwed in the midst of its investigations and if Macbeth or anyone else for that matter tries to tell you that he was exonerated by that jury, he only adds another milestone to his neck to help drag himself down into that bottomless pit of complete destruction and oblivion to meet and abide forever with his worthy friend, Brother Ananias. We admit openly and without equivocation, that so far, we have not been able to do anything at the District Attorney's office, but we would deem it as an esteemed favor if Macbeth would enter suit against us, for then the mater would be placed in the courts and we would be given the chance to let the District Attorney and the public know just who broke the lock on the hen house door. It is not envy, malice or jealousy, that prompts our actions, but for the sake of clean, upright dealings with our fellow men that we cry aloud. This stockselling proposition from its very beginning does not make too much of a good impression on our minds. Macbeth was mostly its organizer and promoter. In the first application for a permit to sell stock, he asked the State Corporation Commission to grant that 100,000 shares of stock at $1.00 per share be granted him and a few others without the payment of one dime for the same. 20,000 shares of this amount was to go to him alone; 10,000 of this 100,000 shares was offered to one of the writers of these articles, and he told Macbeth that he did not want them. How could the poor people who were investing their little savings ever hope to realize a profit, if 20,000 shares of this amount was to be given gratis to one big, incompetent lawyer, as Macbeth, has proven to be in handling this affair? In another application we told the commission that we had spent $24,000 or thereabouts of actual cash in improvements upon the ranch building houses and buying cattle. He told truth when he said the money was spent but when he stated the purpose for which it had been spent the statement was as void of truth as a Mexican poole is of hair. Yes, we are fighting against such rob and fight, and fight and fight we mean to continue to do until this matter is adjusted or we are stopped by the law.

It just seems that the policy of the present Chief of Police for so great a city as Los Angeles will not fit in. Not his hurtling black Cossacks, Sheffield and Randolph in carrying out the Chief's edict are now behind the bars. Now there comes on the scene the white Cossacks, headed by Sweetman and his cohorts and they are on their way browbeating and Cossack-like sweeping in a ruthless manner on the Eastside in order to make a showing. Just how crime on the Eastside is of any more consequence than on any other side is an enigma to us. It is said there is a program for this situation and these officers are the only ones to fit in the picture. Standing firm for law and order and that all law violators are subject to arrest and to pay the penalty thereof, we strongly condemn unlawful and buldozing tactics employed by either the black or white Cossacks.

Towns and their newspapers usually lag or lead together. Progressive journalism is the unfailing tonic of the lethargic community, but it is equally true that lifeless newspaper can seriously retard the development of its community. There is no better community asset than a home newspaper equal to the needs of the community. While a poor newspaper is better than none to the individual reader, that does not hold true for the town. What can a good newspaper do for its community? It can serve as the town's messenger to the outside world. It must take the leadership in all community projects if they are to be successful. It is the infallible line of communication between local government and citizen. It is to the newspaper that all organizations turn for assistance in public welfare movements and without that assistance they face failure. The newspaper reaps the reward of its initiative by sharing in the general improvement of business and community affairs it has been instrumental in bringing about. The good newspaper deems it a pleasure to serve its community and its readers and is fully aware that it is only through giving a full measure of service that it can progress and prosper. HOW DO YOU READ? "Tell me what you eat, and has cried a publicist so often the axiom. Well might another say: will tell you what you are!" The mind is the house in wh the body. If we furnish the mi garish house. If we furnish the in a slovenly house. If we take o the past, we shall live in the past the faddish notions of the present foibles, which vanish ere we know But if, on the other hand, ou "Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you what you are," has cried a publicist so often that he has coined a household axiom. Well might another say: "Tell me what you read and I will tell you what you are!" The mind is the house in which we live more truly than is the body. If we furnish the mind garishly we must live in a garish house. If we furnish the mind carelessly, we must live in a slovenly house. If we take our mental furniture only from the past, we shall live in the past alone. If we take it only from the faddish notions of the present we shall live amid fads and foibles, which vanish ere we know them. But if, on the other hand, our mental diet is balanced, comprised of the foods tested by time and sauced and spiced by the piquancy of the present, we may live a balanced, ordered life. We can with impunity pour poisons and dark, wild, disordered thoughts into our minds no more than we can day after day find strength and health from apurious foods, hastily prepared, indigestible. To read well, read discriminately, widely, thoroughly. What is the best season of the year? Summer, to most people—though the other seasons, especially spring, have their charms. And the older you get, the more you will like summer, the more you will dread winter. Spring corresponds to our babyhood. It is the sprouting season, full of hope, dreams, uncertainty, danger of frost. Autumn is like the waning years of life, when we harvest as we have sown, when we suffer for our negligence and mistakes and are rewarded for our effort. Most of us, when we look backward in the autumn of life, say: "If I only had my life to live over again...". Winter, of course, corresponds to human death, the hibernating of old growth until new growth is ready to sprout and bud. All three of these seasons are preparatory to or the aftermath of summer. And summer is the period of LIFE—of accomplishment—symbolic of the lives we are living. Lucky are you who have survived the frosts of life's springtime. Your crop of success is started. Toil and weed, for autumn of life will be upon you before you are aware. For results, it's now or never. It would be comical, were it not somewhat pathetic, the way newspaper offices are besieged every day by their friends, urging them to "roast" this and that; to "see to it" that this and that is corrected; to have his and that done in the city or county; to start this and that kind of movement to correct evils in the state government. These friends actually appear to believe hat it is the newspaper's business to handle all these affairs. But a self-respecting newspaper, though ready and willing to carry all reasonable responsibility, must remind its readers that they—the people—are the authority upon whom rests the responsibility for the present state of affairs local, state and national. A self-respecting newspaper tries to report the news of what actually happens, not what it might wish had happened. The relation of a self-respecting newspaper to the general public is not only always understood. It is the duty of a newspaper to be in a position to support any good act and criticize any bad act of public policy. This relationship cannot exist where favors are asked and granted. *Honesty is the only policy for a newspaper. If objectors don't like the way things are going, they should qualify as voters, and then raise cain about it.

H. Jones and members in the dedicatory and mortgage services and we feel very grateful to God, as we issue this writep, for his wonderful work. An appropriate and interesting program was rendered under the auspices of the Ministerial Alliance. At the appointed time, the newly recognised REV. N. H. JONES choir of fifty-six voices with the dil rectress, Mrs. G. L. Thropay, in their beautiful robes of blue and white marched in at the tune of the four piece orchestra with Mrs. S. B. Rawls the organist, at the piano. Mrs. Rawls is a student of the Conservatory of Music of Chicago. The special music which had been carefully prepared by the directress was beautifully rendered and demonstrated again the quaint beauty and the lasting hold that jubilie music has on the hearts of the people. Rev. W. R. Rozler, pastor of the Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, preached the dedicatory sermon. His text was very impressive and everyone present was inspired to attempt greater things in the face of race and humanism in the name of love and compassion ens us. Such was the determinations after hearing this God-sent man. Mrs. O. M. Swanigan read the history of the church, giving its origin, program and achievements. The mortgage ceremony was conducted by the pastor, Deacon Rile James and little Dewaine Richardson, the two oldest and youngest members of the church. They held the mortgage as the pastor spoke in a most eloquent way on "Procrastination, Discouragements, Dissolution and Confusion". Deacon Hammond set fire to the old mortgage and we are now celebrating "The Greater Zion Hill Baptist Church" under the leadership of the new pastor, Rev. N. H. Jones. Rev. Jones was called to the pastorate of the Zion Hill Church last October and has caused a new day to dawn in the church which now challenges the respect and recognition of approval and disapproval as seen by friends and opponents or Zion Hill. Heaven regards, honest motives, purposes and alms. An entirely new and evident system has been instituted and the new issue is it. It has given giving to note the program both initially, finally, and numerically that has been and in now being made by the church alone the time it entered upon the battles assigned him by the Holy Bible. --- During these several months of Rev. Jones' pastorate, in his first financial drive $1,319.12 was raised and $2,511.88 raised in current, mission and charity. He has paid off the indebtedness of the church amounting to $1,180.00 which we celebrated in the mortgage burning. He has taken in 206 members and the church has experienced a wonderful change under his leadership. Words are inadequate to express the deep sense of joy, comfort, and peace that swells in our souls. He has made Jones and upon the efforts put forth by him to make the success of the church what it is today, for the chief object of his soul is the success of Greater Zion Hall. There is no pleasure that compares with doing one's duty well—that is, doing it the best one can. The members are in a state of feverish activity and the pastor is becoming known as a great leader in his work as pastor. He has not fallen beneath his recommendation as angiant in religious activities, in spite of the many destructive actions that have been staged against him and the church. He has visited homes among the members, showing them their relation to Christ and to the church. Many who had become negligent, were aroused to their duty through his powerful sermons. AUXILIARIES The Sunday School under the leadership of Rev. B. F. Franklin, is progressing by leaps and bounds with a large attendance and teachers that are well prepared to teach those who are so desirous of knowing. The B. Y. P. U., with Mr. T. C. Swangan as president has been awakened to the full sense of its mission and has adopted the slogan "Young People Can Be Saved." The union is doing a great work each Sunday in putting over the training for service. The Woman's Home Foreign Missionary Society, Mrs. J. C. O'Connor, president, has put her soul into the work. This auxiliary is putting over a great effort. The Usher Board is a group composed of 24 young men and women, under the leadership or Mrs. P. B. Wiggins. It is one of Zion Hill's strongest auxiliaries. On last Sunday, each member was present in their spring uniform which made a picture of beauty. The ladies' uniform is one piece, ponge skirt dress, black tie and white shoes. The men's uniform, blue serge coat, white shirt and white flannel trousers. Sunday was a glorious day in Zion Hill and we wish to express our hearty thank to each minister present and the business men of the city and friends for their wonderful cooperation in our financial drive: REV.

The Convocation of Scottish Rite Masons The Annual Session of the Most Worshipful Hiram of Tyre Grand Lodge, A. F. & A. M. Scottish Rite, Inc., was held June 20th, 21st and 22d. Prior to the opening, one of the grandest fraternal parades that has been recorded to the honor of Los Angeles, formed at Alpine Hall, A. F. & A. M. Scottish Rite, 4414½ Central Ave. The parade was headed by a detachment of the Los Angeles Police Dept., Willis Band of Watts, Cal., and the Grand Officers and followed in line by memorials. The parade was estimated to be 10 miles long, the line of march was from Alpine Hall down Central Avenue to New Hope Baptist Church, 1632 Paloma Avenue where the Annual Sermon was delivered by Rev. A. Lively, pastor. A fine program was rendered, the master of ceremonies being Rev. L. B. Brown or Beth Eden Temple. New Hopes office was taxed to its utmost seating capacity. Many prominent speakers discoursed. Then after several eulogies and the benediction, the full parade marched back to Alpine Hall and was dismissed by the Grand Master, L. P. Lee of Los Angeles. Coffeyville, Kansas Whites Owe Apology To The Blacks But it will not be paid: for mobs are no such good sports as that. In March they tried to lynch colored men and to burn the colored people's homes because two white high school girls said that three Negroes had broken in and raped them. But in June, after a little ordinary detective work, they find out, to their great chagrin, that the men were white, and that the "raping" was done by pre-arrangement with one of the girls, who wanted to be "raped" and who agreed to bring along two other girls, so that the other two men could rape them. Of course, the other two girls, not being in the trick, were to get an honest-to-goodness raping. Fortunately the mother of one of the other girls refused to let her daughter go: "spend the night" with Julia Mooney—and the upshot was that there, only two girls for the three men. After it was all over, the two girls went to a neighbor's house, shouting "Nizgaral!" and told their story. Conceyville became an armed camp or white savages,—colored people were insulted—several thousand men broke into the jail to lynch a Negro "suspect," who was deserted by the officers and saved himself by hiding. And one of the daily papers justified the violence in editorials,—demanded of the colored people that they should "ferret out," and deliver the criminals,—and took the usual fool position that innocent colored citizens can be held responsible for the acts of criminals who happen to be of the same color. Colored men and to fight to defend their homes and shone from nitro glycerine and mobs brought in from Oklahoma, and now some of these colored defenders are under indictment for "rioting," while not a single member of the attacking mob has been held. But Julia Mooney and Ira Kennedy, the planners and principals of the little "raping party," and the white people of Coffeeville are looking "sheepish" out or the corners of their eyes when they meet a colored girl. Julia Mooney, about 19 years old, and Ira Kennedy, 30 years old with a wife and children, are both from Oklahoma. They know how it is done down there: just go in and have a good thair and then shout "Nigger!" and every think will be fixed up all right. We are really sorry for the innocent Ackle girl, 17 years old who was led into a room where the people and uppers of Coffeeville have courage, they will apologize to their colored girl. Well! At last! California or at least a part of California, has succeeded in placing herself in the ranks of intelligen-tion makers. THE W. O. A. BECH controlled to cancel our correspond- date because the city of Oakland refused to entertain impartially the delegates. That is; the hotels and cafes of Oakland drew the color line. There is considerable work cut out for the "Better Relation" organizations of that city and with the coming influx of Dixians it will be very strenuous work to dislillusion them of the preju- luded ideas they have brought with 0----00----0 Saw a letter the other day from, a Georgian who was making inquiry concerning the possibilities of the Sea Juaquin Valley. He stated that he was a farmer; a tenant farmer, that the conditions down there were getting deplorable. The niggers wanted wages for working and were becoming "sassy." But first he wanted to know if it was true that the "niggers" and whites attended the same schools? For a long while that lk was attracted by the word "Southern" and did not get north of the Tehatchipli. He followed Sam and Eliza. But when the latter found out that the fog was not deadly, and drifted this way, John "Peck" followed. The Convention goes to Portland, Oregon, which, a few years ago was a rabid den or racial intolerance. What a change! California has openly boasted of her freedom from racial hatreds. And now, what a change! What has brought about this change of racial view in Portland? It has not accomplished by any militant effort, the mass and indignation meetings have been few. This change or feeling has been tough, bringing the different races together in understanding, relationship which has slowly, but surely, permeated its citizenry. Too much credit cannot be given the Associate Editor of the Portland Advocate for her part in bringing about this changed racial feeling. 0----00----0 The Governor has returned from his vacation, and all are on the quire to see what his action will be in the Anita Whitney case. By the time that his is read his decision will have been given the public. Whether the splendid woman whose sympathy for the "under dog" led her into the meshes or the Syndicalism Law, and a sentence to prison, shall serve that sentence or receive executive clemency. Opinion is divided. The Governor is, himself, in a dilemma. Should he extend clemency to Miss Whitney, pressure will be brought to bear for the pardon of those serving terms for the infraction of the act. Should he withhold clemency the sentimentalist will have their inning. There are a lot of the latter. There is quite a lot of politics going on under the Dome. Reorganization of the State Government; Reappointment of Legislative Representation; State Official Appointments—Oh! ever so many things are occupying the spotlight. There will be a big fight on respondention. It will go to a Referendum. We have our own ideas concerning that measure, and at the proper time, will state them. It has to be studied thoroughly to find the motive and whether the motive impelling it is sinister or not. We were among the millions who listened in when the President made his lenatious speech and decorated Col. Lindburgh. We heard the applaus and the cheers. He landed the daring aviator as the carrier of friendships to the nations of the world, an ambassador for world amity. Down on the crumbling levees of the Mississippi River there were hundreds of black refugees of the floods. Sick with fever and undernourished because the food was denied them; unclothed, because the funds which were publicly subscribed, were often mist appropriated by the white man who could pick them out for poonace; all of these and greater atrocities were that minute being committed. Did not the President know of those things? If he does not know, why is it that those who are so close to him, who have his car, its appointees, acquaint him with the facts? Senator Shortridge has indored Judge Harold Louderback for the Federal Judgeship. Senator Hiram Johnson indores Judge Frank Griffo for the hederer's bad taste. Wendy Winters had set aside, but there are other candidates, among whom are Welch, Sen Jose; Weynard, Colin. 00-00-0 The Civil War was brought vividly to mind with the death of Henry Farley who fired the first Conteradee shot at Fort Bumpter. He was 88 years old and died in New York on June 4th. 00-00-0 The only time that a poor white man of the South will wince a sympathetic feeling toward a black man is when both are in imminent danger and the white person depends on the black one for his safety. When the recent floods were at their apex, carrying destruction and death in their wake, there was no color line. Black and white alike clung to the trail supports which were the dividing lines for security. Then assured of safety the old virus began to permeate and color hatred vied with the water succinct in its weakness. They were beaten with less courage than the troops that held the philanthropic public host to leash the antigrate and ward off the threatened civilis A great todo has been made because the Soviet, Russian Government stood twenty militators, who criticised the actions of the officials, against the wail and shot them. Shame! cries the nations, and Uncle Sam leads the chorus. Now, let us turn Uncle's face toward the South of his own habitat. To date over four thousand men, women and children have entered eternity by the way of the mob. They were people of African descent who for some trivial accusation, being impatient, asking for the wages due, detrive over a hog or mule, were shet, hanged or burned to death. President Coolidge on his way to 2 summer vacation in the Black Hills, South Dakota, stopped over in Indians to dedicate a War Memorial. It was the usual thing: generalities and platitudes. We did hope that the President would have the courage to voice his antagonism to certain violations of National Law which is being exposed. Person in its vilest form was brought to national notice even when the flood waters of the Mississippi were taking their toll of property and life. Men and women were tagged like cattle and forbidden to move from a certain area until claimed by some white man. All of this has been brought to national notice, and rigid investigation made Wrongs righted and violators of the law punished. Not because the victims of the act were black people, but because they are American citizens and are due the protective power of the government. 0----00----0 Some people argue, and say, "Why do they stay there? Why don't they come North?" It's a century or more since Attucks was slain on Boston Commons. His blood fertilized the soil in which was sown the seed of our national freedom. Added to this is the years of unrequited toil and the tears that watered the earth of the South and made the Southland blossom and bloom. The black people of the South are as entitled to the property of the land as the environs of the South as in the North and it is a travesty on our form of administration of its laws, when we look at it otherwise. But the protests of our "leaders" can be easily hushed to a whisper or government, especially in the ad when they are called in off the Capitol steps and promised "something." If we had one or more Race representatives, or representations of the Race, in the legislative halls of the nation; if we could conjure up leaders who could and would subordinate their personal political ambitions to the benefit of the people, we could vacate the steps of the Capitol waiting for that appointment as "Minister to Dahomey" or some other crumb; if we could get it into their heads that one elected office is worth forty appointments, as far as the political progress of the Race is concerned, may be we will be learning. worthwhile politics.

OUT GUNNING FOR AN OFFICER Wm. A. Withers 1540 East 50th St was arrested at 52nd and Morgan by Officers Edmonson and Shanks. He had a gun and a black-jack in his pocket and when questioned stated an officer named S. S. Riley was out with fire and he was looking for him to break up the love match with bullets. WOMEN ENTICE MAN BEHIND BEAT AND BOB HIM Tony Callagas was walking down San Pedro Street when he met Mary Alexander, 1423 E. 20th and her companion Margaret Nettle. They solicited him and he followed them behind a bill-board where one held him while the other hit him over the head with an iron bar. During the melee the other one cut him under the eye with a pocket knife. He was badly bruised and beaten but managed to hold one till the officers arrived but the other fled with $100.00 they had taken from him. Officers Clark and Bradford made the arrests. N. A. A, C. P.

ERNIE OWENS TUESDAY, JUNE 27th Sailor Eddie Huffman, one of the best light-heavies in the boxing game is matched against Ernie Owen on next Tuesday's card at the Olympic Auditorium. Huffman is the hard-socking battler who gave Tiger Flowers such a great battle before a surprised crowd last July at Ascot Park. Ernie Owen is one of the stars in Dutch Meyer's great stable, a mere boy who by a string of sensational wine has advanced to the top ranks on the Coast and is figured to add a victory over Huffman to his already long string. The rest of the supporting card is up to the usual Olympic standard. Staying on for one more fight GEO. Godfrey boxes Nell Cisby on July 5th in the same arena, and Tom Jones, his wise manager claims the fast-stepping San Berdoo boy is the only one who can take big George. AS. TO THE GREAT FUORE AND EXCITEMENT ABOUT MY UPPER-CUTS ON MANAGERS last issue. IT GOES for any State, any race, any time. For there are plenty of those kind of managers and they do hurt the game. When they are colored they hurt it for the race as boxing is the only game in which a colored man gets a real chance to gain fame, fortune and respect. But as to the remark in "Fisticuffs Row" about Tom Tielski, losing Thompson it was not meant that he lost the contract; he has the contract and the full, power that goes with it. But with no disrespect meant toward Mr. Sleiski, we explained this, that by "losing him" we meant he has, through some way that he can probably explain best, lost the influence he had over the boy when guiding him into the good bouts that made him one of the biggest drawing cards in the country. I have always felt friendly towards them both and regret any differences that may have occurred between them, but at one time he had the whole ear and attention of Jack and then is when he should have held his advantage. Weaver Fishing Party Says, "Now You Tell One" Mr. James Weaver and Mr. Roy Balloy are leaders of a little band of t faithful fishermen, and women who angle every Sunday in the pitilific waters of the Pacific. On Sunday last they returned with a wonderful tale from Santa Monica. One of the party in pulling up his line found that a macho had taken the book, a bass had retrieved it, a halibut had coped the bass and a big A barracuda had penetrated the whip-push—so the surgeon's fingerprints pulled in all at once. When there was any mistake he put in the hole, the tall of many a snakeman would dangle in the handle of the body who arrived with a huge snake. All the above amounts did not amount to more than a hundred pounds. A Chief Bendy Best Light- Heavy Prospect On Pacific Coast Ernest (Chief) Bendy, a mere school boy with only three or four fights under his beet has been named as one of the best prospects on the Coast by experts in the boxing game. He is more than half Cherokee Indian, his father being chief of a tribe in Oklahoma and his mother with a broad stroke of the Cherokee blood. The boy has a wonderful future before him. WALK MILLER MAY MAY SUE KEARNS In a letter which dropped out of the mail plate on to the old desk this A.M., Walk Miller, one of the finest, smartest, most considerate managers in the fight game writes the following: New York MR. HARRY LEVETTE, Sports Editor, California Eagle, Los Angeles, Cal. Dear Friend LEVETTE: I, as well as the boys may my direction appreciate fully all the co-operation you have given us and send regards. I am in hopes of getting Flowers and Walker in the trip again this year and getting the title back. This will depend largely on Water, and if I don't get him to go abroad with his contract, shall enter suit for damage as soon as his violations come by fighting Milligan in England. With many thanks for good flowers and kindest wishes, my goodness and the keys. Sincerely, WALK MILLER. The above should help discredit any rumors which have from time to time been attributed that the Flowers Walker was in the box, and was a captain on the fly of Flowers. There are no false accounts of incidents in the game. JIMMY MURRAY SUBSTITUTED BILLY EVANS IN GREAT CARD, THURSDAY, JUNE 16 Jimmy Murray is a great little square shooter promoter at the Culver City Stadium. Billy Evans is a great little sharp-shooter in the ring. Billy, a wonderful featherweight, has, thus lack of proper management, been unable to secure a showing before the local fann, but promised that once given the chance he would prove that he is really worth while and can fight. Jimmy Murray promised the Soaring Eagle who interceded for Billy that at the first opportunity he would give him a chance. And the chance came when Caballero was ruled off the card for boxing at a picnic previously, and when the second match was made, Daugherty had to pull out because of sickness. This left Billy a chance at Manhattan Joe Havers in the main go and Jimmy kept his word. Thrown into the ring against a tough, hard-hitting Mexican, who tore in all the time, Billy, with just a few hours' notice put up a wonderful battle. He met Rivers' rushes with a lightning straight left that drove him to cover in the 3rd round, but the game Ohio feather kept right on him, beating him out or his shell until at the start of the 4th a hard left to the solar plexus dropped the Mexican for more than the count, so Billy had kept his word too. The cuffed was well bleached and gave the sleeve to that holding a big hand. He is now signed up for several bout at Fresno San Diego and other clubs. Young Harry Wills Has New Addition to Name For originality in ring names, they have picked a world beater for Young, Harry Wills, colored knock-out sensation from "an Diego" whom "Tom Scott expects to take East next month for a campaign around Cleveland, Chicago, and other points on the other side of the Rockies where the ring game thrives. Here on the Coat, boxing scribes have christened Young Harry Wills — "The San Diego Sandman." Wills is regarded as another rare classic edition which comes out of the mould about once in ten years. His fighting is remindful of that of Stanley Ketchell, George K. O. Chaney, and Franklin Nell is as much as the audience never knows when Young Harry will let go with his lightning bolt and the evening's entertainment will be over with. Until the last round has passed, an opponent is never quite sure whether he will remain on his feet in a digit with Wills, or be put away. Taking the case of "Jimmy Duffy," the classy Garland *welterweight* Duffy, who had boasted "Pinkey" Mitchell and, other top-notchers, was matched with the young colored boy from San Diego who was expected to prove a set-up. For four rounds Duffy was winning nicely from Young Harry Wills. But in that fourth stanza a blacky sat flew out like a bolt out of a clear sky. Duffy went down with a thud and physician had a difficult time reviving him. To prove that his right hand is a real dream product, Wills stepped self and knocked a string of others to sleep, including Billy Murphy, Arela Walker, and Pat Mills. He knocked these three men up all silly in one round with his right hand sleep producer. A famous sports critic of the Pacific, who nicknamed Wills as the "San Diego Sandman," declared that Wills had that which Blancy Glyna wrote about. But instead of "sex appeal," Wills and the well-known "Socko Appeal." Young Harry Wills is a former San Diego high school football star who was an all-around athlete while attending the institution. He turned to the ring upon graduation to where his great father of a hot-carrying competition which the Clarence Bills, father of Shaun Wills that named him was working at the other to compete in a team finale. Wills appeared to be world's wetterweight champion in the same time that Jimmy Tom Scull will be his new master champion. Tom Scull will be in the same with the "San Diego Fastback" team. At last the boy with a long-tailed, lop-eared, splay-footed dog of various colors and various breeds has come into his own and all in the vicinity of Central avenue, Boyle Heights, the Furlong Tract, Waits and the West Side, the colored boys are grooming up their respective "best friends" ready to lead them proudly before the public. Five hundred dollars to the winner of the first prize, at the first annual mutt dog show of Southern California is the bait that is attracting hundreds of bogs and girls to the big event scheduled for Ascot Speedway, July 9th, while several hundred other cash prizes also have proved attractive. More than 500 entries have already been received and it is believed that those to 10,000 dogs will be entered by the time the show opens. Officials of the show announce that the office at Agrot Speedway will be open at all times now and telephone requests for application blanks, and information is available by calling ANGELAS 3753. Hundreds of kids and their dogs visited the speedway Saturday to enter their pets and obtain information concerning the show. Everyone of them in enthusiastic and few of them will admit that they have any chance to con other than the $100 first prize. Officials have again issued a request (in the kids of Southern California) to get their entries in as early as possible because of the huge amount of work involved in having all the entries listed correctly. Appointment of the Los Angeles Chambers of Commerce. Botman Robeson, superintendent of the Humane Animal Commission and other civic organizations, has been given and scores of business and professional men have interested themselves in the event through memories of their own boyhood with their canine pals. Among the prominent spectators of the event will be Rin Tin Tin and his wife, besides many other dogs, fowls and animals famens in Movieland. Fight or Get Out at the Main Street A. C. That's the word the boxers hear Saturday nights at the busy fight factory on Main Street when the matchmaker gives his last warning; and that is the word the referees yell all during the battles especially when the firing begins to kill. That is why the cash customers get to go home early for there are always plenty of knock-outs. Saturday Night's Bill Saturday Night at 8:00 Main Bout, 3 rounds, Mateo Magdeleno vs. Bud Conglar, Semi-windup, 4 rounds, Phil Nance vs. Jack Lamon; Special Event, Eddie O'Hara vs. Martine; Sandy Garrison vs. Jose Flores; Frankie Abadeno vs. Young Aquerro.

The current season is the 12th season in the Mills organization. GIRL-ETICS by: GLADYS MA- THONICAN One of the most interesting baseball games of the year was played by two girls teams. The games were at Sny- der Field, 38th and Compton avenue and was played last Saturday af- ternoon. The 12th Street Center Girl Reserves proved themselves to be better baseball players than basketball players by being victorious in their first baseball game. The members of the Golden Poppy Girl Reserve team, each and every one deserves congratulations on the wonderful game they played. At the end of the second inning, the score was 15-3 in favor of the Golden Poppies. The 12th Street Center G. R's got busy then and held them down to 20 points at the end or the last inning, being themselves up to 24. This was considered a thriller by all who attended and anyone who misses the next one will miss even more than a thrill. So be sure to watch this column for the date and place of the next game.

LATEST PICTURES ALWAYS SHOWN COME HARVEY! The King is dead, long live the King! or words to that effect welled from the throats of nearly 12,000 yell ing, screaming white and colored fans when "Killer" Tommy O'Brien tell like a beef before a vicious right up percut that zipped up his chest to the point of his jaw from the hand of Baby Joe Gans. The big arena was sense all up to the chimax as this was one of the most important bouts of the season and marked Baby Gans' new rise to popularity after his loss to O'Brien by a decision in the same arena a month ago. The fact that Gans was fouled repeatedly and the unjust nunch punch was used by O'Brien in the first fight made the fans all agog to see the "Young Master" get evenge with these blows guarded against and ruled out. A deafening roar met the gentlemanly Gans as he entered the ring while a mixture of cheers and poos met O' BABY JOE GANS (YDUNG MASTER) Recognized Lightweight Champion Brien as he climbed through the ropes. Seemingly "rearin'" to go, O'Brien never returned to his corner after the instructions in the center of the ring, but at the bell rushed Gans, shooting a terrific right. Gans had been training to lead to him as well as his famous counter punching, so met him with all guns, ducking the right and wading in with a blow to the body. Both seemed determined, and after two short clinches Gans ducked another hard right, caught the "Killer" coming in and smashed in his upper arm. O'Brien rolled over while referee Lee tolled the count; he tried to rise, then fell back and lay while the "atal "ten" sounded the end of one of the most feared lightweight on the Coast. O'Brien weighed 140 pounds, Gans 137 pounds. This settles for once and all the mastery of the Coast lightweight ranks and places Baby Gans in line for bouts at New York.

Boston, Mass., June 20.—Bidding triumphantly on the winds of her recent victory in the courts of St. Louis, where the destiny of the Negro's richest business institution hung in the balance and of which columns of newspaper copy was spread on Negro weeklies the length and breadth of the country, Mrs. Anna Pope Turnbo-Malone came to Boston Monday. She received a tribute from the people of New England, the like of which no Negro since the days of the immortal Booker T. Washington has enjoyed. The ecstatic welcome was not alone because of the contributions of Poro College to Negro industry, but because of the contributions of Poro College to Negro industry, but because of the efficacy of its founder's business genius as well, it seemed. At the A. M. E. Zion Church, Monday evening, 2,000 people climaxed the full day's program with their cheers as the revelations of Poro were unfolded through moving pictures of the institution, the twenty-four piece girl's orchestra of the school, and the fervent speech of Mrs. Malone herself. "We have come personally to thank you for your prayers, your support, and for your faith in Poro College during its darkest hours." Mrs. Malone said. "It was through the loyalty and service of the Negro Press-Nation wide, that Poro was saved to the race. The institution is yours. Come and enjoy it, but don't abuse it. The work is my contribution to the race—a realization of my life's dream. White women of the world spend thousands to beautify themselves. They are honored and respected because of their good appearance. "Before we began to cultivate beauty we were called 'Aunty,' 'Mammy,' 'Eve' and 'Jane.' Now we are addressed 'Miss' and 'Mistress,' as we assume dignity, poise and grace. This physical appearance leads to modesty, thrift, culture, and the acquiring of homes—beautiful and attractive. "The time for Negroes complains about not having a chance in life has past. You cannot use obstacles as excuse for failures. We have young men and women fully equipped for life's work, but they are too easily discouraged. Prepare yourselves for the ordeal and success will come. Color is no bar, you cannot succeed, however, if your early days are spent seeking pleasure and amusement alone. Get all the education possible and use it to full advantage." Mrs. Malone concluded. Diplomas were issued to Mrs. Sallie Lumphin, Lillian Bussey, Virginia Gladen, and Margaret B. Simril, four graduates of the Boston Branch of Poro-College. Oddly enough, Mrs. Malone's trip here afforded an occasion for the formal opening of the Boston sub-station—a beauty parlor in charge of Mrs. J. E. Lewis, said to be second to none in equipment and attractiveness in New England. Aside from the music of the Poro Girls' Orchestra directed by James Harris, and the singing of Mrs. Ethel Hardy-Smith, lyric soprano, short speeches were delivered by Rev. W. H. Jones, Samuel A. Allen, Rev. B. W. Swain, John W. Youngblood, Mrs. Marle King and Mrs. John B. Hall. Mrs. Malone and her party of forty people, who are touring the East, left on a midnight train for Philadelphia.

(HOLLYWOOD 2908) (HUmbolt. 4870) "A movement toward making the streets and highways of California safe for both motorist and pedestrian was definitely launched last week at the California Public Safety Conference held in Berkeley," was the statement of Clarence R. Snethe, executive secretary of the Los Angeles Traffic Commission, who has just returned. "For the first time, safety agencies' efforts," he continued, "are to be coordinated along a definite line for the reduction of traffic accidents. This co-ordination is made possible by the adoption of a program which will be used by every safety group in the State. This program is divided into three activities: "First, the education of juveniles through the medium of the schools. At the safety conference there were a large number of school officials, local, county and State, all of whom agreed to use the juvenile program as developed at this meeting. The Automobile Club of Southern California has been highly successful in its school work, carried on under the direction of its safety manager, Mr. E. B. Lefferts, and the State program is planned along similar lines, thus assuring its success. UNIVERSITY ORDINANCE UNIFORM ORDINANCE "Second, to secure the adoption by every municipality in the State, of the uniform traffic ordinance, which is based upon the Los Angeles ordinance. This will make it unnecessary for motorists to learn more than one traffic ordinance in the entire State, and will unquestionably make it easier for everyone. This particular activity has in the past been handled by the Automobile Club of Southern California, and the California State Automobile Association, who have succeeded in securing its adoption in some fifty-five California cities to date. They expect to carry on the work during the coming year, with the assistance of the groups represented at the California Public Safety Conference. "The third question is that of educating adults, both motorists and pedestrians, through a State-wide publicity program to be handled through every group interested in public safety. The purpose of this program is to effect the reduction of death, injury and damage through traffic accidents, the reduction of insurance premiums, taxes, cost of automobile maintenance, cost of street-car and railroad operation, to provide smoother, safer and faster flowing traffic, and finally, to secure a better understanding of respect for and compliance with traffic laws and regulations.

GAS TAX REFERENDUM San Francisco, June 20.—Circulation of referendum petition directed against the State bill boosting the gasoline-tax rate an additional 1 cent per gallon and its companion measure, the highway fund allocation bill, is scheduled to begin here tomorrow. As the petitiones go into circulation one of Gov. Young's strongest heathmen, Maj. Charles L. Tilden, president of the Harbor Board, and one of the leading figures in the Draymen's Association, will find himself in an embarrassing position with the State executive, a position giving rise to much comment by politicians. CRUZ OF SITUATION The situation, politically, revolves indirectly around the Waxy truck-tax bill, which Gov. Young signed, and which provides for a graduated weight tax on trucks in place of the present 5 per cent gross receipts tax. Referendum petitions already are in circulation against that measure. Mair. Tilden's organisation is in the field with petitions directed against the Wagar bill, but his associates, who threatened Gov. Young with a referendum of the gas-tax measure if the weight-tax bill was signed, have gone ahead despite Mair. Tilden's position and made good on their threat to institute a referendum of the gas-tax law, inasmuch as a referendum on that bill would be incomplete without similar action against the allocation of funds, the two are companion propositions in the petitions.

LOGICAL DEDUCTION Credit Manager—Do you own a car? Applicant for Credit—No. Credit Manager writes: "Has a car."—Life. Know Engine Number On Your Automobile Be sure you know the engine number on your car as well as your license number. Often, a motorist is at a loss to identify his car when stolen or wrecked because he has no record to check up on the machine. Note the engine number and license number of your car in some secure place so that you can refer to it at any time. Knowing the engine number of your car is a protection against theft, according to the National Automobile Club and it is astonishing to know how few motorists have ever checked up on this important item. In checking the motor number, do not take tor granied the motor number on your registration alip, but investigate for yourself and see that the car which you drive is the car described on your license certificate.

San Pedro Street (Cone Block North of Jefferson) Don't get the idea that noisy spikes are merely objectocean to the car and that the cause of the notes can do no harm. The brakes may be just as effective, but if they screen when pressure is brought to bear on the drum, it is a sign that they are not properly adjusted, or that there is foreign matter between the band and the drum. Either of these causes will result in excessive wear on the lining and gradually reduce the thickness of the drum. The band upon which the lining is riled should not be sprang so that any part of the lining will come is contact with the drum when the brakes are off. If both the drum and the band are true, there should be no great amount of noise, even if grit works into the lining. A soft lining is more effective and is never noisy. When a lining becomes glazed it will begin to scream and cannot get a good compression. Gasoline will soften linings unless they are gone too far. Brakes work better in damp weather. er. Moisture softens them and at the same time causes the fabric to expand. For this reason brakes should be adjusted when dry, unless you intend to moisten the lining occasionally. Holding a brake lining over a jet of live steam under it while on the drum will increase its effectiveness and life. A brake band that drags will cause loss of power and burn out the lining. If the band is properly adjusted, the drum will not get hot if the brakes are not applied too often. Test for drags by running a few blocks on a level street and then touching a candle to the drum. If it leaves even a slight spot on the drum you have located a thief of power. All linings may look something alike, but that is one thing you cannot afford to economise on. Buy the best quality.
