California Eagle

Honolulu, T. H. June 11th, 1927. DEAR MR. BASS: I am ashamed of my delay in not writing you a letter sooner. However, I shall never forget the kindness of yourself and Mrs. Bass toward me. I came to Honolulu January 1st, 1927 and find it a very beautiful and interesting place to live. My trip has been amply rewarded by the education of it. I am admitted to the Bar here now. I get the "California Eagle" from Prof. Belnke, who was much with me when I first arrived. I was very glad to hear of Mr. Nick Childs of Topeka, who is an old friend of mine and one whom everyone from the West feels indebted to for the great work of the "Plaindealer." It is my hope that some day when I return to Los Angeles, it will have improved in many ways. I am sure that the California Eagle will play the leading part for I perceive you are opening your columns to the public. A better leader of the race is bound to spring up than any who has appeared so far. (Turn to page four) Thomas Johnson, Noted Baritone In Benefit Recital Thomas Johnson, the "golden-voiced Negro baritone of the West" will favor the Los Angeles music-loving public with another of his popular recitals on the evening of July 14, in the auditorium of the Second Baptist Church, 24th and Griffith, at 8 P. M. Mr. Johnson has for years held the reputation of being the outstanding Race vocalist in the West. He has the unique distinction of being the only soloist to have sung continuously at the Sunday services of Almee Temple McPherson's great Angelus. Temple over a three-year period. Mr. Johnson has been under contract there for that length of time and his tremendous popularity has shown no indication of waning. He has also proven a popular radio entertainer throughout the Southland, and his spiritual numbers are in great demand. With characteristic bigness of heart Mr. Johnson is setting aside a number or important engagements and is donating his talent and the entire proceeds of the recital to the "Bunche Scholarship Fund" sponsored by the Iroquois Friday Morning Club. He will be assisted by Mrs. Luvenia Harper Patterson, accompanist, and Miss Nelle Johnson, soprano, who are also contributing their services gratis. All seats will be popularly priced at 50 cents. MISS ALBRITTON SAYS "GOOD-BYE" Of course she can sing "Good-Bye" until you feel the tear-drops start but on Sunday afternoon at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. N. Albritton of Council St., she said "Good-bye" to a host of her friends. More than 200 persons called at the Albrittons during the hours of 4 and 7. Those who stayed to the last hour enjoyed an excellent program. Miss Albritton very generously tried to sing nearly all they asked of her. Others taking part on the program were Mrs. Mrs. E. Hollins, reading; Miss Lilias G. Hart, piano selection and Mrs. Idell Hateman, reading; Miss Albritton departed for her home in Cleveland on Wednesday following. A successful treatment for that dreadful blood disease and others as cancer, rheumatism, anemia, appendicitis, pneumonia, kidney, kidney and female troubles, arthritis and etc. Magic Life Remedy 3061 South Figures Street Disappointing as audience which packed Judge Elliot Craig's court room to every inch of space with 2000 on the outside the Sheffield and Randolph case was continued until next Tuesday, July 5th, at 10:00 A.M. As announced in our last issue Attorney Towson S. Grasty, formally withdrew as counsel for Sheffield and was substituted by Judge Thomas P. White. The case will surely go on trial next Tuesday.

Scottish Rite Masons The above is the likeness of L. P. Lea, 33rd degree, Grand Master of the Most Worshipful Hiram of Tyre Lodge, Scottish Rite, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, inc., for the State of California, Mr. Lea has been active in Masonic Work for the past three years. He has held the office of Grand Manger for three years. In these years he has and quite a struggle but due to his tiring energy and aggressiveness, he has succeeded in bringing the Most Worshipful Hiram of Tyre Grand Lodge from a place of obscurity to a substantial standing. Among the things he has accomplished is the amalgamation of the M. W. Alpha Grand Lodge and the M. W. Hiram of Tyre G. L. The M. W. Hiram of Tyre G. L. is chartered and incorporated under the laws of the State of California and has ten lodges in its jurisdiction. Some of which are in Fresno, Calif., Oakland, Calif., San Pedro, Calif.; and Los Angeles, boasting a membership of more than 250 good men. Mr. Lea, like all enterprising men, with a definite purpose in view and starting at the bottom did not have it easy these past years. He has met with rebuffs and has been disappointed in many of his plans but his tenacity has finally won for him success which is greatly appreciated by his members as well as the general public. He made (Continued on page six) Reports of Committee on Interracial Relationships To the Northern Baptist Convention: Progress toward a better understand- standing between race is a slow growth. Narrowness of sympathy and the feeling that "I and mike are little better than he and he," as even "than you and yours," seems magnificent in human nature, especially in North America, unless indeed he has small strife in Chinese and Indian and still nature where any one of these races (Continued on page two) BOYS AND GIRLS DAY AT INDEPENDENT No page or pages in the history will shine as brightly as those two which stand for the result of Boys Day, June 19 and Girls' Day, June 26th at the Independent Church. The boys, under the supervision of Clayton Russell, had a most successful day. A Boys' chorus of 57 voices was the first attempt at anything of that kind in the State. Much credit is due to Gilbert. Al- for the morning. His sermon consisted of logical facts that can be applied to every day life. The subject was, "The Boys' Business." The evening program featured the picture "Boy O' Mine" and Bernard Jefferson who delivered his oration that won him fame in the National Oratorical Contest. The boys really did themselves justice. The playlet entitled "Boys will be Boys," written for the occasion by Gilbert Allen, was a scream. It is very seldom that such a large group of boys is gotten together in a church, so they should be commended for their effort. The following Sunday, June 26 was Girls' Day under the supervision of Jessie May Nickerson. The program and music was under the direction of Marguerite Robinson. These two girls were the leaders of the girls in this outstanding day. The girls worked hard to beat the boys this year, for the boys won last year. This year's contest was the closest in history. The girls won accession, attendance, and finance. The boys won program, order and system. But the girls points gave them the narrow mar- There was plenty of ice cream and cake for everyone present. These activities were presented by the Art-Rel-Titus Chap of this church which meets every Tuesday evening at 80. Some say that the signs of the time point towards moral and spiritual corruption on the part of the youth of today, but to those who so think, we advise them to use as a remedy for such a mental disease, such program as those rendered by the boys and girls of Independent Church, Jesus and the Saints. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1927 THE FEDERAL MUSEUM OF ART AND CULTURE Boys Officers and Other Participants on Program at Boys' Day at Independent Church: Clayton Russell, Supervisor; Gilbert Allan, Director of Program and Music; John Porter, Master of Finance; Victor Niekerson, Reading Clerk. The losing side was to give a banquet for the winning side. So on last Monday evening in the Young People's Hall of Independence the boys, under the direction of Clayton Russell and Gilbert Allen, entertained the girls. In connection with the program, a three-reel picture was run. The program consisted of a quintet; vocal solo, Marguerite Robinson. Wedding balls rang when Mr. Watts Asbestos (Gilbert Allen) and Mr. Sassafras (John Porter) were married by Clayton Russell, the minister. len, the director of the chorus and Clayton Rusell, the supervisor and master of ceremonies. These two boys together, worked constantly to put over this unsurpassable program. The program consisted of such wonderful talent as Bernard Jefferson, Lawrence Lassiter, Harold Grant, John Porter, the Master of Finance, Victor Nickerson, Reading Clerk, Samuel Brown, the Organist and who performed his job wonderfully. Mr. LeRoy S. Hart, a brilliant young man who is a graduate of William, Lincoln, and U. S. C. and who is a Master of Arts. was Girl Officers and group participating on Girls' Day at Independent Church: Jesse May Nickerson, Supervisor; Margurite Robinson, Director of program and music; Bessie Harold, Reading Clerk; Willie B. Nickerson, Controller of Finance. MISS ANITA THOMPSON, CONSIDERED ONE OF LOS ANGELES' MOST BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS TO SPEND VACATION WITH PARENTS The younger social set of Los Angeles is agog with interest concerning the many social events that will be given for beautiful, vivacious Anita Thompson, who returned to the city a few days ago after an absence of more than four years. Accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Beatrice S. Thompson. Miss Thompson left Los Angeles July of 1922 joint delegate to the Annual N. A. A. C. P. Convention at Kansas City, and from there to Chicago, where she visited relatives. From Chicago she went next to New York, where she was bridesmaid in the spectacular Robinson-Jackson wedding which claimed world attention. The impression made by this charming little Western beauty and her brilliant mother was lasting, and New York even now is looking towards the advent of their second coming. While in New York Miss Thompson was a student at Columbia University. In connection with work she visited such cities at Philadelphia and Baltimore paying especial attention to art exhibits in these cities. In 1924, still a student at Columbia, Miss Thompson became a member of Miller & Lyles "Runnin' Wild" Company. In this connection Miss Thompson hoped to realize her fondest ambition in the development of her artistic trend from the standpoint of the theatre; but "experience is the best teacher" always. So her fond hopes from this angle soon waned. She immediately left the stage, but continued to study. In the fall of 1926 she returned to Baltimore to visit an aunt, and while there with her eyes, and mind always open for educational advancement, she discovered that here was an opportunity if properly graped, and was willing to take time and iay the foundation hence she entered the Baltimore Normal and in the meantime continued her work at Columbia thru the medium of the extension classes. In the Spring of 1926 she was graduated from the Normal, and immediately took professional examinations for elementary and junior high school English and art teaching positions, and for art supervision. But not yet satisfied with her preparation in the Summer of 1926 she went in for further training at the Chicago Art institute where she specialized in sculpture, in which line she had already attracted, attention, having been represented by busts of prominent Baltimore educators and Negro heads in Eastern Art exhibits. In the Fall of 1926 Miss Thompson had the distinction of making highest marks in examinations taken for a position in the Baltimore Schools and is now art supervisor in the public schools of that city. In an interview Miss Thompson says that she has enjoyed a very pleasant year's work, and while here on a Summer vacation, will study at the University of California. Help Ralph Bunche On To Harvard, Then To Oxford In view of the fact that Mr. Ralph Bunche has, through self-help and perseverance, attained the highest honor in the gift of the University of California, Southern Branch, that of valedictorian of his class, thereby receiving a scholarship to Harvard, and since the faculty by vote has recommended this young man to represent the University in competing for the Coell Rhodes Scholarship which would entitle him to a course in law at Oxford College, London, England, we the members of "The Inaugural Friday Morning Civic and Social Club" believing that every true and loyal citizen of our race will be glad to help this worthy young man financially, that he may be unharmed in his first year at Harvard and will be free to utilize all his energy in competing for the Coell Rhodes Scholarship, are sponsoring "The Ralph Bunche Scholarship Fund of $1,999." Therefore we are appealing to you to contribute to this fund. The list of donors will be published Henceforth this column will be dedicated to happenings seen and heard in the sidewalk from time to time. Last Sunday we would love to have seen more people and automobiles in the LeBlanc Boys' Band demonstration. Prof. LeBlanc, in his effort to organize these boys is deserving of every support. There are many places and many amusements for boys of this day and time that stand for less in mental and moral development than this training offered by the ardent and never firing Prof. LeBlanc. Prof. Wm. T. Wilkins, as far as we are concerned, as a musician and teacher of the piano, is a unique character. We have known Prof. Wilkins, possibly much longer than the person who criticised him in these columns and in the columns of our worthy contemporary and we certainly entertain the greatest respect and highest esteem for his genius as an interpreter of the piano. We also feel keenly the pangs of better criticism for like Prof. Wilkins, we too, achieve what little we claim in the way of success. So we say, "Cheer up, Prof., continue on your 'Path of Destiny' until it things that high praise and respect that s due you." WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH BRUCE'S BEACH? For some little time, a gang of white errorists, in the name of the law, have infested the surrounding territory of Bruce Beach threatening to arrest Negroes who dared to take a plunge in the ocean, but Sunday they encountered a little Waterloo when they ran into Walter Gordon, Sr. It seems that these petty officials, after running some forty or fifty persons away last Sunday, encountered Walter Godron, Sr., who upon being invited out of the ocean and threaten with arrest and lodgment in jail, gave these officials some fine points of law and they, after listening with some emotion, beat a hasty retreat.

WRITER RETURNS FROM CHICAG GO TO GO AGAIN Back again and glad to get back full of coal, dirt, hot, dusty, hungry and thirst, dead tired, California here I come. How do they do it? I mean those poor, old porters who make the trip from Los Angeles to Chicago, week in and week out. They must be a glutton for punishment. The writer promised to do some broadcasting on his eventful trip East with the Radio Kings; sorry this could not be done while I was en route to the dirty city (Chicago) but I had too much money to buy a ticket. Men of whom I was elected to bring across the desert were hounds for service and one cannot give service and broadcast at the same time. I am back now at my own broadcasting station—T-C-E—The California Eagle, so tune in and listen to this. At Los Angeles, the train is in the depot, passengers are clamming up the incline. It is to be two sections, the first is composed entirely of Chicago cars. The day has the makeup of a trickier tricking down my back and we haven't left the depot yet. Here comes the red cans—grips, gribs and then If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened some more grips, every half one of them Madison for the radio car; what the big idea, am I the only car on this train? Why pile all the cars on this train? Why pile all the cars on this train? Well well! at least have the delegation and they haven't got car phones on. But those hats, oh those hats! California Mexican hats, not so bad for a good impression back East that. Are you still listening in folks! This is Chas, L. Upton speaking, broadcasting The Railroad Clatter from radio station T-CE, located at 9th and Central Aven. Los Angeles, Calif. We have with us this evening on board the Radio Car as our most distinguished guest, MR. KENNEST G. ORMISTMEN, maybe you have heard of the gentleman before; that is, if you haven't been dead. His name is being whispered around here and there, they wish to keep his identity secret, although we have no women in our party. We apparently have been tipped off; you cannot keep anything from the women—not bad looking at that. All a—board! We are off. My bell is ringing already, why they won't even give me a chance to put on my white coat! Everybody in the car at once—Ginger Ale, ice, and some guess, porter! We guess we will pull over the desert straight. Yes, Mrs. Upton is the Maid, and my drawing room gave me his tip for the trip; it was a bill but if I was going to be hanged tomorrow I couldn't tell you truthfully what the denomination was, because I did not get to keep it that long, the Maid grabbed it, and folks let me the Maid one thing, she's a grabbing poor soul. L. High is on the next car to me and it is his first trip away from Los Angeles. He's mopped the times and we haven't got outside the city limits yet. There is an old friend of mine waiting table in the diner, his name is Bradley. One of the old regulations from Back East, come out here to retire, but couldn't resist the rattle of the wheels, and the clatter of the dishes on the diners, so he is still a victim. Well, we are nearing Chicago, everybody is getting ready to get off, the Maid left us at Qahma and so did all the tip I made from Los Angeles to Qmaha. Watta life! What ta life! This is the end of our pro gram being broadcasted from T-CE we will now sign off. BIG GUND STEAL AWAY TO ELG-ONE FOR WEEK-END Nobody know anything about it BUT the Railroad Clatter. Maybe that was enough because it is sure way to be broadcasted. Well, you see, it was this way: Five tired Pullman soma got together and decided that the best way to recover their lost energy was to steal away to Milshore for the week-end; the five over-worked babies being J. Montgomery, J. Hill, J. Fonder, L. A. Conn and E. Garer. Montgomery and Ponder went up first to pave the way in Ponder's Essay. "What excuse will we give our wives?" said one. "Oh, Just tell me we're going fishing." And it worked. Now, of course, we can readily understand Mr. Hill's reasons for going, as he is an undertaker, and has had his eyes on Ponder for some time. Business comes first with Hill. We will not be surprised in the least if Ponder turns up missing, and our friend Montgomery is very much apt to pass away quietly over the expense of the trip. But, to make a long story short, if they come back without any fish, our friend, Mr. Hill is liable to get every last one of them. Watch the stock of the Angelus Funeral Parlors. SHRINERS TRIP PROVES LOSS TO PORTERS It was a very dissatisfied crew with the exception of one or two who returned from a gruelling eighteen day trip with the mixed Shriners Special that left Los Angeles, for Atlantic City, May 7th. Nothing seemed to pan out as expected but the work, and there was plenty of that. It seems as if half of the blue blood that generally goes on a Shriners Special were electricians, only the rooms had those who looked like they might be tempted to kick loose from the almighty and they were few and far between. Some of the crew were left stranded in that wicked city Chicago; they were in Mitchell, L. Hall and Daddy Prescott, the rest came on in to Los Angeles tired and weary from the hard trip; they were Johnny Moore, S. Hurnette, W. E. Washington and J. Carter. The big hit of the trip was Chief Standing Bull who had his Indian friends give a war dance at several stops along the road. Next year the Shriners meet in Miami, Fla. MAIDS NOW OPERATE TO CHICAGO ON SOLID COAST LIMITED GO ON GOLD COAST LIMITED At last the little dears are going to operate through to the Windy City. This means that the quarters in Omaha have been given up, and new ones established in Chicago. It has been a long time since the girls have had a gimpse or State street and Grand boulevard, and everything, and from now on it will be just too bad. This arrangement will be a boom to the Mails because it will give them five days and nights at home, which is considered ample enough time to get the required rest to make the long trip it will also give two more mails a regular job. PILLOW SLIPS Maid E. Johnson has transferred to the Los Angeles District and is, now operating on the second section of the Gold Coast. Maid Johnson formerly operated on The California Limited from the Chicago East District. Maid Boon has been operating on the Gold Coast, first section. Maid Ella Greer has returned from a trip with the Shriners. Maid Blanche Mattison left for Chicago last week. C. Smith No. 2 is planning a trip East soon. Yes, on the East-Side. H. L. Armstrong is now getting ready to try his luck on the dogs at Tia Juana. If he has the same luck as he does with the ponies he will soon be well. Hot Dog! That whistle on the Union Pacific engines is the talk of the road. The writer will pack his grip and typewriter to Hoover Camp next Thursday, Hoover Camp is located in North Canton, Ohio. There he will spend a quiet two weeks in a tent at the Annual Convention of Hoover salesmen. While there he will endeavor to broadcast his observations of that section of the United States. Use Approved Gas Appliances WHEN buying a gas appliance it is advisable to make sure that it is properly designed to give the service for which it is intended. Satisfactory service, regardless of the fuel used, depends upon thorough combustion. Thorough combustion, in turn, depends upon properly designed appliances, properly adjusted. Some gas appliances on the market are not properly designed to give satisfactory service. To protect the public against improperly designed and inefficient gas appliances, the American Gas Association recently established a Laboratory for testing the design, efficiency and safety of gas appliances of every sort. This Laboratory has the approval and support of the United States Bureau of Standards, United States Bureau of Mines, and the United States Public Health Service.

Adams-Hunt, 1659-W Phone: FUJOKER 6722 Los Angeles REPORT ON INTERNATIONAL RELATIONSHIPS (Continued from page one) nearly fill the horizon of the people's vision. Unfortunately those who make loudest profession of religion, and who have the strongest faith that their religion is the only religion, are often the least tolerant and least regardful of the feelings and rights of others. The Christian Church has the possibility of questioning faith with love for other races and classes. The Christian Church has hardly begun to learn the lesson of human brotherhood. Witness the exploitation of weaker nations by the so-called Christian nations, the Ku Klux Klan, and the attitude of Americans toward the dark races, and toward the many forigneers. Yet progress is made not only by centuries as shown by the abolition of slavery, the diminishing frequency of war, and at least the widespread attempt to establish a World Court and a League of Nations; but also by decades as indicated by the decrease of lynchings from over 100 annually in the United States thirty years ago to an average of forty-six the last ten years and seventy the last years. New laws have been passed against lynching in the South, and the activities of the Commission on the Church and Race Rehations of the Federal Council of Churches have brought about a far better understanding and feeling between large sections of the two races. Much, however, remains to be done. The number of lynchings almost doubled in 1926 of the preceding year, rising from seventeen to thirty. The danger of race fretion is not confined to any single part of the country, but the attempts at lynching thwarted by the law, four were in Northern States. In many respects Negroes in the North suffer hardships resulting from race feeling as severe as in the South. We believe that the only agent which can bring into the world the spirit of universal brotherhood is the church, and that it can do it only by proclaiming the gospel of Christ, which is the gospel of love, and by furthering knowledge and acquaintance between the races. Little knowledge of another race is knowledge of externals, in which race differ. More intimate acquaintance brings recognition of deeper characteristics in which all races are alike. It reveals something capable, sensitive, admirable, divine in the members of every race. Interracial Commissions—North and interracial—doing a great service in bringing, together, in hundreds of cities the better representatives of the two races for better understanding and acquaintance. Remarkable results in good-will and sympathy and in actual diminution of friction have come from these meetings. In view of these acts your committee would recommend the adoption of the following resolutions: RESOLVED. That, we endorse most heartily the work of the Commission on the Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council of Churches of North America, and the work of the Commission on Interracial Cooperation; that we commend the Church Women's Committee of the Commission on Church and Race Relations of the Federal Council in promoting local conferences of white and colored women, and we urge the hearty co-op movement to join in these efforts that we commend the growing practice of exchange of pulpits and choirs between the races of Race Relations Sunday, and the securing of Negro speakers at home-mission meetings in the white churches. RESOLVED. That, recognizing the far-reaching injury to foreign mission work resulting from lynching in the professedly Christian land, the utter inconsistency of this practice with the teaching of Christ, its violation of every ideal of the church and of the foundations of our government, and the duty of the Christian Church to do everything possible to prevent this euth. we would commend to the churches every effort to make this a lynchless land, and would urge pastors and others to use means in their power to protect prisoners and uphold the law, and to promote legislation for the strengthening of law enforcement.

CHURCH CAMPAIGN CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH ENTERS UPON CAMPAIGN TO RAISE FUNDS WITH WHICH TO PURCHASE LARGER PLANT The Lincoln Memorial Congregational Church of 34th Street and Central Avenue, is entering upon a Campaign JOHN H. Rev. E. E. Lightner Who is leading his Congregation in an Effort to secure a more adequate Church Plant to raise funds with which to purchase the Vernon Avenue Congregational Church and property located at the corner of Vernon and Hooper Avenues. The present building in which the congregation has been worshipping almost from the beginning, is very indifferent to the work of the church, since it consists of two rooms including main auditorium. The officers and members of the church feel that the time has come to enter upon a larger service to the growing community, and realizing the inadequacy of the present plant, have joined themselves to the task of making a simultaneous appeal to the general public to aid in this enterprise. The pastor, Rev. E. E. Lightner, presented the matter to the Interdenominational Ministers Alliance host Monday and received their hearty endorsement of the proposed campaign. Every person to whose attention this appeal is called is urged to do all he or she can that this worthy church may have a suitable building in which to do its work. LeBlanc's Boys' Band Stages Big Parade LeBlanc's famous boys' band enlisted the atmosphere on last Sunday by a most creditable parade and playing of military airs on dress parade from 8th and Central to Adams, returning to 11st Street to Compton. The band was escorted by a detail of police and headed by the official and press car of the California Bridge. The parade was to demonstrate the efficiency of the boys and to advertise the band concert which was given at the Central and Washington Avenue Hal, Tuesday night. The Eagle is highly appreciative of the wonderful service which Prof. T. R. Hawkins provides to the community and he will continue to recieve our hearty support in his endeavors to life up and assist our youth along lines of advancement. STEALS FROM BENEFACTORS Police are searching for a would-be "sheik" by the name of James Freeman who stole $41 from his benefactors, Mr. and Mrs. Shank, 819 E. 28th street. Freeman is a young brownskin fek low about 22 years of age of what is called the merino type with reddish hair, large mouth and feet. He arrived in Los Angeles driving an ancient Cadillac several months ago and fortunately securing a job washing dishes an Owl Drug Store began a campaign of fast stepping among what now requires an officer to make. But because of his loudness and uncoupl actions while entertaining a sweetheart as a none too welcome guest at the soda fountain he was fired on the spot in the girl's presence. The car, his clothes, ring, etc., rading away he applied to Mr. and Mrs. Shankle for board and room until he could find employment. In spite of the fact that his rent bill had run to over $20 besides his board, his benefactors still kindly gave him shelter and trusted him, even with money. But last Wednesday morning their kindness received a severe jolt. Freeman learning that Mrs. Shank was was going down town to pay some bills offered to fulfill the errand for her. She gave him $41 and the bills receiving a promise that he would return by 10:00 o'clock. He has not returned yet, not even for the few clothes he brought there in a handbag. Thinking something had happened to him they waited nearly two days before reporting the theft to the police but checking back over his actions they recollect that he may have been one of the gangs of youthful thieves and hold-ups that the police have been rounding up, and taking the alarm fled at the first opportunity. This has given a greater incentive to the search for him and his capture is expected shortly. He has a mother, Mrs. Lula Harris, 637 Paris St., Atlanta, Ga., aag a brother in Philadelphia, but officers visiting both of them found they had not heard from him.

Mr. Ralph Bunche spoke before a group of business girls last Thursday on "Social Problems"—particularly those pertaining to our race, which was enthusiastically received by his audience. On July 7th a very formal dance will be given by the Orchestra at the Masonic Temple, 50th and Central. All dress suits must be well-dressed and liberally sprinkled with French perfume at least a week before the event as this dance will probably be the very best affair the club has attempted. Famous last words: "I can't find my dancing pumps; I'll have to wear my tennis shoes." Mr. Milliard Johnson, L. A. High stude, left L. A., Thursday morning and will visit many of the larger cities of the U. S., among which will be New Orleans, La.; Dallas, Texas; Denver, Colo.; St. Louis, Mo, and Chicago, Ill. Milliard plans to return in October. The editor of this column and his many friends wish him a very pleasant trip. Initiation exercises for the Misses Alice Kennedy and Anna Louise Griffith, into the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, "solemnized" at the home of Miss Thelma Overton, June 26. Heard on the campus—"A pessimist is a guy who won't brush his teeth for fear they'll wear one." Heard on "Black and Tan Avenue": one little newsboy to another, as they watched a barber singe a customer's hair: "Gee, he's hunting 'em with a light." Correct! "Trouble" is back in L. A. Watch the sparks fly. Who would like to change places with four certain individuals who are now guests of the city? A graduate chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority was established Monday night, June 27th. It is the first chapter to be established in a Negro Sorority on the Pacific Coast.

On last Friday evening the Federated Clubs held their regular meeting at Eagle Hall and after suite a lively and enthusiastic meeting adjourned to take up and act on a special situation on Monday evening. The special Monday evening meeting was well attended. A godly number of organizations were represented. The Federation voted for a lunch to which the members of the new city Council would be invited to be held at the Republica Cafe on the 8th nst., at which time alds and suggestions along the line of better citizenship will be discussed. The League is well on its way and there seems nothing will stop its onward march in its mission of getting together on a construction program. PHYS-ART-LIT-MOR CLUB The Phys-Art-Lib-Mor Club held its secad last open meeting of the club year at Christian's Tavern, Friday afternoon, June 7th. Mrs. Alice Patton, chairman of Literature, conducted the first half or the program, giving a brilliant resume of the work of her department. Mrs. Russell Hudson rendered a selection from Chopin and Mrs. Edna Steward gave a most interesting and instructive talk on "What to Read and How to Judge Literature." Mrs. Patton then introduced Ralph Bunch and Bernard Jefferson who have achieved such recognition along scholastic lines, that the Phys-Art-Lib-Mor Club wished to show them some appreciation for their worth to the Race as clean, ambitious young manhood. On behalf of the Educational Department, Mrs. Rebecca Hill, the president, presented them with a monogramed notebook and scrapbook. Mrs. Stella Walker, who has brought such helpful programs to the club during the last quarter dealing with Applied Psychology under Moral Philosophy, had for her numbers: Mrs. Mayne Lowe-Payne, vocal solo: Mrs. Anita Harvey, clever paper on "A Good Tonic at a Cheap Price": Dr. Eva Young, "a very beautiful review of the "Great-Stone Face": Assemblyman Roberts closed the program by explaining several of the bills introduced by him at the last session of the legislature. After the program, one hundred members and friends enjoyed a social hour and all the visitors were lavish in their praise of the excellent being accomplished by this club. ABOVITA CLUB Wednesday evening was nothing but the greatest of pleasure for the Abovia club when Mr. and Mrs. E. Johnson at 3808 Naomi street entertained them. The meeting was called to order by the president' Mr. Bill Johnson. Business was discussed. The evening was spent playing cards. Prizes were won by Leslie Hargreave, Mrs. Tricol Cathcart, second and Mrs. Wilson, third. New members were taken. Mrs Johnson proved herself to be an ideal hostess. LOUISIANA STATE CLUB PLANS FIRST PICNIC What a time Louisianans are planning to have at their first big outing.

Louisianans, if you want to live again those happy picnic days spent back at old Minneberg, be present at the next meeting to help complete arrangements. This picnic will be the culminating event to the second membership drive which is now on. LA FRANCE CLUB The La France Club met with Mrs. Qdessa Hudson, 3447 McKinley, Wednesday afternoon.

ADELPHIC CLUB A never to be forgotten affair was the party given by the Adelphic Club last past Saturday evening in Boyle Heights at the home of Mr. William Bowdan, their secretary. The home was profusely decorated with blue and gold streamers and serpentine was in abundance. The name of the Club was very conspicuously placed on the wall of large letters of gold greek through the entire center. Refreshments were in abundance. From the time the orchestra started playing until the small hours of the next morning when every guest had left, the gay spirits of the guests gradually increased into one riot of laughter, fun, freelie and abandon. The increased demand for a reittion of this Adelphic party, gives indication that the next house party may have to be held at the Shrine. Tom Clubs' friends who are clamoring to be on the inside this time.

LEWIS, Prop. 1 You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened ACE FOREMAN RETURNSTOL.A. Lacking 800 miles of his goal from L. A. to New York, Joe Foreman with his mechanic, Artil Ward, returned by rail to this city from which he started, Sunday, June 19. All Los Angeles was much interested in his flight and prayed for his success. The reason of his failure can be summed up briefly—lack of backing. We are satisfied that he kept in touch with the faithful few, who were primarily responsible for the progress which he had made and that if he had had the backing that there would have been a different ending and that he would have reached his goal in some manner before his return. As we all realize the great success of Lindbergh in his remarkable flight from San Diego to Paris showing rare courage, but not without unlimited backing. Personally, we think that Foreman's feat in crossing the Sierra Nevadas, the great American desert, the Rocky Mountain range, and reaching Chicago, even though by spurts, requires courage, stamina, and all of the elements which have made aviation what it is today. We are therefore content for Foreman to relate his story for the people who read these lines, to pass judgment noon. "I left Los Angeles, February 27th flew to Santa Barbara where we had to spend the night because of darkness. Left for San Francisco the next morning, arrived safely. Then hopped off to Reno where we spent the second night. Left Reno Tuesday morning, arrived safely. Then hop Tuesday night, where we were forced down because of motor trouble caused by running into a snow storm. "After receiving money from the California Eagle, we repaired ship and flew on to Denver. From Denver we went to Kansas City and gave an exhibition there on the 27th of March. From Kansas City, we flew direct to Chicago. We would have continued to New York if the authorities had not decided that the ship we were flying was not airworthy. "Then an exhibition was planned to raise funds to purchase a new ship to continue the flight to New York. Therefore a committee was formed, but through the attendant delay and being unable to handle the sale of tickets to advantage, the whole matter had to be dropped. "I was disappointed in not being able to finish the flight on to New York, being so close to my goal, but I intend to make another try, however, after I have secured a ship sufficient for such a flight." ATTORNEY CLINTON ROSS HEARD FROM IN HONOLULU (Continued from page one) If I am any judge, or any power of observation whatsoever, I would say, that Los Angeles has more black people of educational training and talent who are trampled under foot, ignored, or relegated to the background, than any city in the U.S. Such an astounding assertion needs some proof, of course. The railroad companies which terminate in Los Angeles have men of great educational training to sweep their cars and make their sleeping car berths. The public offices and corridors of Los Angeles are swept by college graduates, chauffleurs of more training along educational lines, than their white employers, dust cars, and change tires; the toilers and rest rooms of large business houses are presided over by black women of taste, refinement and education. Many of the professional men and conductors of impressive offices and stores are making less net income than menials and laborers. College trained men, heralded throughout the nation for prowess in athletes, graduate from California schools and become quickly unknown in the masses of Los Angeles. Most of these men belong to churches, lodges, legions and respectable social organizations. The almost Herculean task of reclaiming those lost and buried educated and talented black men and women is the task of the California Eagle. If education can once get the support of the masses, it can once strike off the fetters and chains of the custom that now prevails I believe it can be done. If today it were in my power to suggest a remedy for the situation in Los Angeles, I would say that the race problem must be mixed up in Los Angeles as it has been in other places. You attend a Colored Church in Los Angeles, or a Colored social event, except in underworld circles and you see no one present but your own race of people. That is regrettable. No one is permitted to see the intelligence of your group but themselves, any man would feel a bride in inviting a member of any other race to hear Father Cleghorn's address, or Rev. N. P. Greggs, or Rev. Brown of the Baptist Church, or Rev Miller, or many other churches and pastors. So anyone would find a pleasure. In inviting a friend of some other race to a social affair to the homes of some of the school teachers, or successful business people in Los Angeles. The mixing and mingling of races among the better classes creates understanding and friendship. On Central avenue and its vicinity there are Chinese, Japanese, Mexicans, Jews and others. These people are wanting access to the Christian religion and American ideas and language. In Honolulu they have joined all Christian Churches, and are living American. Suppose a campaign was opened in Los Angeles for a together meeting between the Black men, Chinese and Japanese and Mexicans. Have their organizations and churches over to your meeting and go over to theirs. You will find that Negro education will get better support from those people than from their own. It will take time and patience, but once the Negro gets the friendly attitude of the Chinese, Japanese and Mexicans, his business and education will be used in preference to white education, which is now being reluctantly used by those persons. Oriental trade and Mexican trade is stretching into millions. The Negro minister is the first man to start. If he can entice those races to attend his services, Christianize them, Americanize them in language and dress and manners, he will start something in Los Angeles that would put the education of his race above its present standing and the value of his citizenship above its present value and I venture to say in five years from now the Negroes who have gone to college and have attainments will be in positions where their education will bring them incomes and that will in turn, relieve them of the aspersion which the untrained Negro now can truthfully cast upon him by saying to another: "There is Mrs. So and So who sent her boy and girl through college and the boy is waiting table on a dining car and the girl is down in the rest room of some large business house's toilet. The Negro will never find his way alone groping around in the dark nor will he ever gain it by having it shown to him by the white man. If he ever sets on the right road to success and education it will be by the guidance and support of some strange people whose minds have not been Colored and prejudiced and whose interests are common with his own. I did not mean to preach a sermon, Mr. Bass, but I did so unconsciously. If you will forgive me this time I will by next time not to be as anthoughtful. However, I spent many years in Los Angeles and there are many people there whose acquaintance forms the most pleasant pages of my memory, and whose parts and attainments I greatly admire, but whose miserable conditions in adversity have moved me to pity in considering my own perplexities, and whose hope for the success of themselves and their children I will always look, forward to as having something, in common with my own. You and Mrs. Bass are some of those friends, although you are among the most successful. I will close for this time, hoping to hear from you at any time. I beg to remain as ever. Yours sincerely.

FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1927 FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1927 General Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters Issues Statement Now York City, June 22.—The following statement was issued today by A. Philip Randolph, General Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters: "The policy of dismissing from the service porters suspected of being affiliated with the Brotherhood, and against which Mr. Samuel Untermayer and the other distinguished lawyers protest is a most dangerous and unwise one for the Pullman Company to pursue. It is bound to react unfavorably against the Company. Such a policy certainly will not succeed in preventing the porters and maids from exercising their legal right to organize a union of their own in preference to the union organized for them by the Pullman Company.

LADY ATTENDANT FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN 1400 East 17th Street Phone: Westmore 2060 PL. G. ROBINSON LORENZO BOWDOIN BETTY MTRANOR "It needs too, to impress upon the porters the bolster that the Pullman Company is determined to thwart its employees' efforts lawfully to secure a living wage, shorter hours, and improved working conditions. The Brothhood is prepared to show that this polity is being rather systematically carried out by some of the superintendents or the various districts which is bound to lower the standard of service to the public, in that old and experienced men are being replaced by new and inexperienced results. "In the closing days of the 69th Congress, Hon. Emanuel Celler of Brooklyn introduced a resolution calling for a thorough investigation of the finances of the Pullman Company and its relations with the travelling public and its employees. The resolution was consigned to the Rules Committee of the House. It is expected that at the next Session of Congress, Mr. Celler and others will make a strenuous effort to have the resolution transferred to the Committee on Labor. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is in favor of the Celler Resolution and is confident that an impartial investigation, as the resolution demands, will unearth facts which cannot hurt but strengthen the claims of the porters and maids for a living wage, shorter hours and improved working conditions."

GRADUATE CHAPTER INSTALLED BY ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA SORORITY After three years of untiring effort the local chapters of the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority in Los Angeles have realized their dream of a graduate sorority chapter. The Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority was the first to organize in California and has steadily grown since coming to the Coast. The new graduate chapter was installed on Monday evening at the home of the retiring Basilleus of the under graduate chapter, Miss Helen Wheeler. Mrs. Neosha Bartleson who has held a national office in the organization was deputized to install the chapter by the western reginal directress Miss Ida L. Jackson of Oakland, Calif. The new chapter makes the 55th chapter of this great organization of Negro college women, and the 4th chapter on the coast. Its name will be the Alpha Omega Alpha chapter until further word from the directorate. Heading the organization as Basileus is Neosha Venerable Bartleson, A. B. of the University of Kansas, Mrs. Bartleson is a well known music teacher of this city and taught mathematics for several years in the Kansas City High School. Charter members of the new chapter include; Minnie Wickliffe, Ph. B.; Marjorie Bright, A. B.; Alice Garrott, D. D. S.; Vade Somerville, D. D. S.; Corrine Stovell, Ph. G.; Ursula Pruitt, Ph. G.; Coty Johnson, Ph. G.; La Verne Martin A. B.; Minnie Payne Greene, A. B.; Leola Lewith, Ph. G.; Naida McCullough, honor graduate of Music; Helen Wheeler, L. L. B.; Louise Kenner, A. B. Los Angeles should be proud of this forward step by its women. The new chapter membership has the distinctive membership of two women dentists, Dr. Yeda Somerville and Dr. Alcee Garrott and the first Negro woman to receive an L. L. B. in the state of California, Helen L. Wheeler. The chapters will also initiate soon three Alpha members—Ruth Temple, M. D.; Ruby Jefferson, A. B.; and Edith Jones, A. B. The work of the undergraduate chapter at the University of Southern California will be carried on by Mesdames Yolande Sovall and Hortense Coffy and the Misses Willa B. Nickerson.

(Mantis California Eagle) Will the N. A. A. C. P. Take These Cases? The Negro is being intimidated at Manhattan Beach and other public places. A drive is being made against him in many sub-divisions in an effort to prevent him from entering or to force him out if he has entered said district. Nothing would give the present officers and executive committee of the association greater pleasure than to be the actual defender of the Colored man's right in these cases, but even the N. A. A. C. P. must not be expected to do the impossible. Up to the present time less than one thousand people here have joined the Association for 1927. If the Citizens of Los Angeles expect the Association to carry on this work, they will pay their membership and have their friends join. This is your fight. Support the association and it will not fall you. WILL ASK DELAY It is said that attorneys in the Sheffield case, Richardson and Geisler, will make a desperate battle for continuance of the case to be called on the 29th, to which the District Attorney's office will fight to a finish. Grapevine dispatch also relates a rising friction in the handling of the case, that is to say that Attorney Towson S. Grasty, who has occupied the position of counsel in chief, refused to be subordinated in the premises. That is to say Grasty will not consent to be a dummy and if there is any sitting in Richardson and Geisler will simply sit in with Grasty. Another angle from the same line is that officer Randolph offers to tell the low down on the killing and this means he would turn state's evidence for immunity. From the same source we learn the District Attorney is not too anxious for him, to do so, for he accurs he has a complete case. However many citizens it is said, are urging that immunity be given in the case of officer Randolph. Market 2ND ---Pico & Central Ave. PURCHASE 2 lbs. 25c 1 lb. 10c N HAMS 2 Lbs.

United States is not an old government a We celebrate this July Fourth the one hundred and fifty-first anniversary of the Independence of the United States, or rather the declaration of that independence, for much fighting remained to be done after the colonists proclaimed their secession from the government of Great Britain. The United States is not an old government as age is considered, but no nation that has ever been established has made such progress in a century and a half as has this one. Ohio was practically the outpost of American civilization when the Declaration of Independence was signed. The thing which gives the United States a distinction from other great governments is that it has never adopted practices of military aggression, and the same liberty that was demanded by the colonists has been vouchsafed to other nations. America has always been the friend of weak peoples struggling to find themselves in a broader experience of freedom. The career of the United States, unfortunately, has not always been one of peace, but history records that this nation has never engaged in a war that was not forced upon it in defense of moral principles in the interests of humanity, or by the aggressions of other peoples. America, aside from providing a haven for millions of oppressed peoples of other lands, has made valuable contribution in all lines of activity to the world. The products of American genius in little more than a century have enriched mankind generally, with the assurance of much benefit to generations to come. Independence Day is almost generally celebrated as a holiday. To most persons it is an opportunity of getting away from regular employments and participating in recreations which are so common in these times. There are still many patriotic souls, however, who have a vision of America a duty in the development of the nations of the future. They remember gladly the history of the republic, and look forward in hope to the beneficent part this nation is destined to play in world affairs. THE PROMENADE A contemporary wom of "promenading" it might be restored. T Not so long ago, the munity found groups of along the streets, stoppining social intercourse of the best part of it was charming ande As the champion of the fashion of tearing but the exhaustion of pu A contemporary writer bewails the passing of the old custom of "promenading" on pleasant evenings, and wishes that it might be restored. There is a reason in his plea. Not so long ago, the summer twilight in almost every community found groups of people—nice people—strolling quietly along the streets, stopping to chat with other groups and combining social intercourse, mild after-dinner exercise and enjoyment of the best part of the day in a fashion as inexpensive as it was charming and conducive to health and neighborliness. As the champion of the promenade points out, it is a pity that the fashion of tearing about in motor cars with little result but the exhaustion of purse and nervous energy has so completely superseded this calmer method of enjoyment. Use your legs, he urges. It is cheaper than riding and more restful of mind and body. A forward step of progress by members of our group is aptly illustrated in the above acquisition by Mr. and Mrs. John R. McGuire or the Clotile Apartment House located at I151 East 20th street. Mr. and Mrs. McGuire are among our young and progressive young, for whose highest ambitions are to do the things worth while. They will conduct the same in a strictly high class manner and cater to people who desire This property is one of the most beautiful, spacious and pretentious apartment houses of its size in the entire city. The race is indeed fortunate in having at its command these modern apartments. The purchase of this property involves a monetary consideration of quite a large amount, all of which are modern to the highest degree. The apartments are being thoroughly renovated and are now available for reservations. HAWKS HANDS HARD TO FIND CASE FOR NAR DINE BUCKNER HARD TO FIND CASE FOR NAR DINE BUCKNER Just as we go to press Nardine Buckner is on trial for perjury and bribery in the money Johnstone's case. The court is having difficulty getting the charge properly placed. She has been under $1000 bond furnished by Stewart and Murray. MOVES WIFE'S FURNITURE; AR PRESTED FOR BURGLARY. HRESSED FOR BURGARY A blastbomb was arrested in conjunction with Congress in a burglary of the residence of Morris' wife Mrs. C. Morris. The two had nearly stripped the house of furniture and hauled it away. LIQUOR LOADED FORD ^ RACES RACES OFFICERS An exciting race between a Ford coupe loaded with liquor and a police "hot shot" car manned by Officers Casselbury and Rudolph, ended at 22nd and Griffith when the driver, a man named Galleson was arrested and placed in the Newton basilite. Mack Elroy was transferred from Judge Frederickson's Court to a jury trial in Judge Stafford's Court. Carrie Ranson's case in Judge Bullock's Court was continued. Philip Gonzelles, a colored gentleman with a Spanish name, was on trial on a charge of vagile in Judge Fredrickson's Court. MURRAY AND STEWART MISS CHINAMEN If there are any tears shed at all over the recent drive on lottery joints it may be from the very progressive bond broker firm of Murray and Stewart who were always on the job to allow the Chinks to temporarily "gilttee outside jail-house dam quicklee." Bond Broker George Brown furnished $3000 bond each for Flaxbinder and Morris in their burglary case. Mr. Dumas Johnson had a busy week at the Hawk's tall feathers setting free Carrie Ransom, Mack Eriley and Phillip Gonzales among others. MERE BOYS STEAL LOADED TRUCKS IN DAY TIME Officers are searching for a gang of juvenile thieves who have been stealing large trucks loaded with vegetables from market at 7th and Central avenue. The boys, all colored, are of such tender years that their practice of playing and loitering around the market has been unsuspected until it was learned that it was their mode of watching their opportunity to board a truck and casually drive off with it, where they could unload its contents and sell them to other parties leaving the truck abandoned on the street. Several trucks have been found thus emptied after disappearing from the market, the most being one at 6th and Hooper which formed a clue to the gang or baby bandits who had stolen it. Mr. and Mrs. McGuire are among our young and progressive young, folk whose highest ambitions are to do the things worth while. They will conduct the same in a strictly high class manner and cater to people who desire the best. Therefore, with its all modern conveniences, such as hardwood floors, modern steam heat, running cold and warm, and thiefies, motor ages, it can be truly said that our folk in Los Angeles are moving on for greater things and demonstrating their true worth as citizens worth while. The phone number is WEstmore 6554. PURSE SNATCHERS OPERATING Another epidemic of purse snatch- ing which has recently terrorized women living in the colored section of the city has broken out again. Mrs. Anna Hodges, 1548 E. 23rd is a recent victim. She was walking home early in the night when near her residence a man stepped sudely from behind a tree, and ordered her to leave her purse. When she fused he snatched it and ran North on Naomi to 32nd and into a vacant lot. She was only able to get a fleeting view of him but described him as being tall, brownskin in color, and shabbily dressed. The purse contained $7.85. BERNICE ALBRIGHT CASE IS CONTINUED Bernice Albright under bond for perjury is being tried as we go to press in division 25. Her case was continued over from last week. CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF STRIP BIRD CARS Officers Gerrot and Barcrott caught Ted SIGamose and Frank Mattrola in the act of stripping a car at 50th and Alameda. Many other similar cases have been traced to them as they made a practice of taking spare tires; lights; tools and all removable parts from cars, where found standing and whenever possible. JERRY MAY BE THE "WORLD TO HIS MOTHER", BUT— Jerry Moore, 14 year old boy, may be the world to his mother if he has one but he had certainly been a nuisance to the Newton Avenue Police District. He has really been "Jerry on the Job," being picked up by various officers of the Division but on account of his age has escaped punishment. He kept both himself and minions of the law constantly in hot water during his career of crime and as fast as released plunging into the water. He was the most recent act of this young law-breaker to get beastly drunk and when found by officers Berger and Rosser at 1129 E. 95th St. would not tell where he had obtained the groggy beverage. He was transferred as an ultimatum to Juvenile Hall where he will be kept under close surveillance. REALLY JESSE,THOUGHT TEXAS ONLY DRY STATE Ignorance of history, the law and its precepts did not excuse Jesse Ewing, 1542 East 14th Street, from arrest at the hands of officer Nolan and others at 1542 East 14th St. Jesse was hauling a lead of contraband liquor when apprehended and was held for Wright act, and possession, also transportation. Ewing, who recently left Texas because it is dry claimed he thought Texas, to be the only dry State in the Union. La Republica Tea Room "THE PLACE BEAUTIFUL" A restful rendezvous of unusual distinction combining the case of one's home with the luxury of club surroundings. Club Lunchroom served daily from 11:30 A. M. to 8:20 P. M. Catering to Private Parties, Churches, Clubs and Fraternal Odds. It used to be that, when they presented a Negro with a "hemptile," or gave an excess load of lead to hasten his departure from this mundane sphere, the white press heralded the news with six-inch captions Different now. The Dixie folks are still giving "neck-tie parties," and having target practice on Negroes but if you run across, any mention of it, it will be in some obscure corner of the paper, and why? The falacy of the unmentionable crime has been exposed. There is no other propaganda; which can be used effectively. The eyes of civilization the world-round are focused on the United States, and it tries to hide the evidence of her unlawful and brutal crimes. Every lynching of a Negro in this country should be featured by the press of the Rage. Several caravans of Los Angelos have come through Sacramento on the way to the rich farm lands of the Butter Basin. We did not see one dark face, other than sun-tan, among the hundred or more who made the trek. For several years we have been urging the advisability of race farmers, settling on some of the rich valley lands before it was all preempted. This talk of "Lo the poor farmer," is all apple sauce, using a popular saging. He was a man of the poority of the "soll tiller," just meander through the streets of some town adjacent to a farming section and watch the Saturday purchases which Mr. and Mrs. will pile into their Big "Six" and he them back home. Prosperous? Yes! spell it with a capital P. Too bad that Mr. and Mrs. Race farmer could not get in, but, oh well, guess it was too far from church. There were a number of things of racial importance. Nationally, the pass week. As a matter of fact the lynching activities, hanging, shooting and burning of Negroes, in the South, is becoming so common it ceases to be news. Mrs. Ida Wells-Barrett, "Chicago started something when she called upon Secretary of Commerce, Hoover to investigate the reports of racial discrimination in the issuance of taxes to the flood sufferers in the Mississippi Valley. He appointed a committee headed by Dr. Moton, Tuskegee, Alabama, and, according to Secretary Hoover's reply to Mrs. Barnett, everything was perfectly lovely. No discriminations. But what else could be expected? See where Dr. Moton lives and has his being! The question might be asked, and rightly, Why is it that when matters of vital interest to the Rake are at stake, are to be considered, that the committees are chosen from the ranks of Southern Negroes? Surely not, because of Superior fitness. Why was not Bob Abbott of the Chicago Defender, Fred Moore of the New York Age, Boston Poster of the W. W. Ward Company of the California Eagle, Beatrice Cannady of the Portland Advocate, or a hundred or more others who could be named and whose places of residence would not have determined the text of their report named with others or such an investigation? The report of the Moton Committee is the obvious answer. Take it in politics: Your representatives in the Council, on the National Committee of the great party or your choice are from the States which have no representation whatever in election of your candidate. Yet, they are presumed to be your leaders in the political activities of the party. The gentlemen from Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia are delegated by the "bosses" to tell the voters of Illinois, Iowa, Ohio or California, where to "head in". Some day we will awake and discover that the potency of our voting strength lies in, at least attempting, to elect men to representative offices. This month, June, has turned out the usual quota of grades, and near-grades. Many of them with the ego that they are going to give "Old Man World" a severe jolt when they await him with the collegiate bat. Oh well! lots of us have had the complex, but after a few swings, have decided to let the old fellow swing along in his own sweet way, only adding, if possible, our quota to the sunshine. A bevy of young high school girls held a convention in California's capital city. We tled to know the motive for the meeting, and we learned that it was in the educational activities of our young folk, and love to hear their optimistic ideas concerning life. It is refreshing; "Youth must be served," so whenever we strolled over to the place of meeting the convention had adjourned, and dispensed for some social function. The Crisis of June carries a story of which Mrs. Mihal Clark, Executive Secretary of the Bokker T. Washington Community Center, San Francisco, in the author, in her work Mrs. Clark has a fine opportunity to observe psychological reactions as applied mentally. Her work is social welfare has equipped her with a store of fundamentals which will be a sourceful fountain in her literary endeavors. It is to be hoped that her prolific brain will give the reading public many of her "Thought children." Yellow Cab Co.

HUNT, AND ARTHUR GARFIELD HAYS JOIN WITH HIM IN LETTER TO PRESI- DENT E. F. CARRY OF THE COMPANY "The undersigned are a special committee chosen by the Citizens Committee of One Hundred organized to give support and counsel to the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. We have been advised by the officers of the Brotherhood that the Management of the Pullman Company appears to have adopted a policy of discharging a number of its most efficient porters affiliated with the Brotherhood in order to prevent the porters from establishing a union controlled by them and the company. "If such policy has been adopted, we wish to protest against it. In our opinion, it will injure the quality of the service your Company renders to the traveling public. The avenue to high morale and better service is cooperation with legitimate desires such as the formation of a union or their own and not frustrated by fear. Furthermore, the Pullman Company cannot afford to establish the fact that it is willing to deal collectively with its white employees, and unwilling to so deal with another group equally qualified for organization, who happen to be of the Negro race. Such a position is in conflict with the law of the land as well as contrary to enlightened public opinion. "The Watson-Parker Bill which created the United States Mediation Board before which the dispute between the Pullman Company and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is now pending, gives the right of self-organization to your employees. Your Company was, we understand, a party to the making of that law. The policy we protest is bad faith on your part in view of your participation in the formation of this law. "We have the names and records of the men who have been discharged and will submit this material to you if you tell us you will investigate what may be unauthorized actions by your subordinates. "May we have a reply at your very earliest convenience." RE-ELECTED IN THIS CITY (Coneilred from page one) an extensive trip thru the East last July and as the representative from the M. W Hiram of Tyre Grand Lodge he attended the 53rd Biennial Session or the United-Supreme Council of Grand Masters, at Detroit, Mich., and was made Grand Recorder of the Knights Templars of America and Supreme Chancellor of the United Supreme Council. He has just closed one of the most successful sessions of this Grand Lodge, this being the 17th Annual Session and was held in Los Angeles, California, June 19-22, 1927, at the New Hope Baptist Church and two grand sessions at the Beth Eden Temple. Mr. Lea was elected again to the office of Grand Master and was in doubt about his appointment in Masonry throughout the Jurisdiction. His sterling worth as a man and as a leader puts him in the foremost ranks as a leader or men. It was for this reason that his brethren put him into this very high office as Grand Master. With him as leader we are sure to put the A. F. & A. M., Scottish Rite, Inc., over the top in California. HO ! HO ! HO !

The notable improvements were reported from Cleveland, Plainfield and Boston. The continuous rainfall interfered with the usual outdoor spring activities, but did not prevent the employment of many men in parts of the middle west which had experienced a long period of unemployment. FAVORABLE CONDITIONS In Cleveland there was a "slow but steady increase in opportunities offered men in skilled work." Two openings in positions formerly held by other workers were reported and placements showed a decided increase over those of the previous month. In Plainfield, N. J. a concern manufacturing metal toys gave employment to 50 colored girls, and reported that their work was very satisfactory. In Boston 25 new openings were obtained in hotels, and 15 factory, placements were secured in jobs that had not been filled by Negroes. From Texas word came that Negro labor was regaining many places occupied by Mexicans, and many cities report activity in the building trades. MISCELLANEOUS The American Federation of Musicians protested against and thereby removed discriminatory practices against Negroes in dining rooms and hotels during its annual session in Baltimore. Several years ago this same organization's insistence brought about similar results in St. Louis. Running-only three months, a local labor union of longshoremen in Newark has a membership of 1,500. The industrial problems of Negroes living in Buffalo are promised attention by the newly formed Urban League of which William L. Evans, a former Industrial Secretary of the Chicago Urban League, is the Executive Secretary. Industry in the Pittsburgh District was enhanced when A. C. Thayer, formerly of the Atlanta Urban League, took charge of the Pittsburgh League which had been without an Executive almost a year. Coreen Distributing Co.

ADJUSTMENT NEEDED IN TODAY'S TRAFFIC ADJUSTMENT NEEDED IN TODAY'S TRAFFIC Failure of individual adjustment to modern conditions of traffic is the chief cause of the present heavy toll from automobile accidents, according to the National Automobile Club. Every child should be taught the fundamental principles of safety and the principal rules of traffic, according to Major James S. Greene, or the National Automobile Club. Although education will be carried on in the schools the parent should not shift his responsibility and should see that before the child is allowed to walk without supervision it should be schooled in the principles of safety. Out of eleven fatal accidents in a single week in Detroit, five were children. At this time of the year the number of children playing in the streets is usually larger and it behooves the motorist to exercise increased care in driving within the confines of the city. Ignorance of the law against children driving automobiles excuses no one. The importance of the automobile industry to the prosperity of the country at large is shown by the fact that automobile manufacturers buy 63% of the plate glass of the country, 69% of the upholstery leather, 18½% of the lumber and enormous quantities of cloth, cotton goods, paint and varnish, hair, padding and hardware. Dentist (to patient in chair): "Do you wish gas?" Patient (an ardent motorist): Yes, fill her up and change oil in the crankcase, too. Dangerous Machines May be Ruled Off Road Dangerous Machines May be Ruled Off Road The campaign inaugurated by an eastern newspaper to get all dangerous cars off the road whether by legal enactment or by action of the industry has stirred a great deal of comment. Many cars operated now on the highways and in the city traffic are really a hazard to life and limb and the problem before the industry at the present time is how to legally dispose of these dangerous machines and do away with a hazard which has been growing year by year. AUTO THEFT GROWS IN IMPORT TO U. S AUTO THEFT GROWS IN IMPORT TO U. S The question of automobile theft has assumed a place of importance in the automotive field today. As the motor car is not only an object or considerable value but has the peculiar quality of supplying the "get-away" for the thief, it is a popular agent accessory in the carrying out of crime, according to W.E. Schoope, Superintendent of the Theft Bureau of the National Automobile Club. In 1926 there were 95,225 cars stolen but only 10,111 were not recovered. The Automotive industry and the organizations which, are combatting the thief are getting definite results from their activities and it is becoming harder and harder for the criminal to dispose of automobile property. More stringent legislation and the co-operation of police throughout the country, together with the education of the public on the necessity of locking their cars is making itself felt. A tiny leak will soon drain the gas tank. Some five years ago there was a great hue and cry about the saturation point in the automotive industry. Now the average American family is turning to the purchase of one car for each of its members. This is shown in a recent analysis, by the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce. In 1920 a tabulation of registration showed that only twelve families out of each one thousand possessed more than one car. Improvement in garage facilities and reductions in the price of automobiles has led to the increase in two-car families and fifty-five per cent of the families of the country now own automobiles. The reasons given for ideal transportation facilities for the families have been: 1. The use of one car for business and one for pleasure. 2. One for rough farm use and one for going to town. 3. One car for school use and one for the family. 4. The old car was worth more to use than to resell. 5. Good cars at low prices now make two cars available for the former price of one. 6. All adults in the family need an individual car. TRAFFIC BUREAU TO AID ENFORCEMENT Efforts of city officials and civic organizations, such as the Automobile Club and the Traffic Commission, to establish the Traffic Fines Bureau in Los Angeles are due to a determination to obtain a more intelligent enforcement of traffic law violations, according to Dr. Miller McClintock, traffic consultant of the Traffic Commission. Dr. McClintock is considered in the front rank of the nation's traffic experts, acting as consultant for San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, and Philadelphia, as well as Los Angeles. He is also director of the Albert Russel Erskine Bureau of Traffic Research of Harvard University. "Many of the larger cities of the county, including Detroit, Chicago and Kansas City," Mr. McClintock said, "have introduced the Traffic Fines Bureau to meet a modern traffic contingency. "There has been, for some time past, a growing conviction that traffic violations should be segregated, so that each can be handled in the most effective manner. A logical classification is to group violations against public convenience, in one class. This class includes both mathematical character which merely indicates and do not endanger the public. This group makes up 95 per cent of all traffic violations and comprises such acts as improper parking. "The second class of offenses are those against public safety and vary in degree from such acts of carelessness as cutting buttons to acts of malice and criminal carelessness such as reckless and drunken driving." With this classification, it is possible to obtain much more logical and certain enforcement of the law in the courts. The parking violators should be treated differently from the drunken driver. The Violations Bureau makes this possible. Technical violators of the first class may pay stipulated fines without the formality of court procedure and with a minimum of inconvenience. This will clear the courts of the great majority of the cases that now burden their time and will permit of real consideration of the more serious offenses. Progress is being made in arrangements for the new bureau, which it is believed, will be in operation by September 1. The only thing in the way of automobiles nowadays seems to be the pedestrian. ASK FOR STREET WIDENINGS Requests that petitions be authorized for two important opening and widening proceedings have been made by the city council, and referred to the city engineer for attention. Groups of property owners on Marengo street have asked that the street be widened from Mission Road to the East city limits, and several business men on Pico street have asked that Pico be widened to 100 feet between Alvarado and Crenshaw boulevard. This latter widening would make Pico street 100 feet for its entire width as other sections are now under widening proceedings. Both projects are for streets included in the Major Traffic Street Plan of the Traffic Commission. As the Fourth of July draws near, members of the Police Department with their strong interest in prevention of injury to all citizens and particularly to the young children of the city, are thinking in terms of the methods of celebrating Independence Day that are dangerous. It is their desire to invite all citizens of Los Angeles to remember the annual list of maimed children and to do everything possible to discourage the use of dangerous fireworks while encouraging to the ulm most all suitable and safe methods of celebration. The Police Department asks that all bear in mind the resolution adopted by the Board of Fire Commissioners which defines the types and kinds of fireworks considered harmful and dangerous. That resolution read as follows: WHEREAS the provisions of section 14 of Ordinance No. 19,500, as amended prohibit the sale and delivery, for use within the City of Los Angeles, of fire crackers, blank cartridges, and fireworks containing phosphorus in any form; AND WHEREAS, the Board of Fire Commissioners is invested with authority to designate such other types or kinds of fireworks as are by it considered harmful, and dangerous to be used by the public for celebration purposes; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by this Board, that the following types and kinds of fireworks are hereby designated as harmful and dangerous, and their sale and delivery within the city of Los Angeles prohibited: 1st. Sky rockets, including all devices that are intended to rise into the air during discharge; 2nd. Roman Candles, including all devices, discharging bells of fire into the air, after the manner of device commonly known by this name; 3rd. Chasers, including all devices that are intended to dart or travel about the surface of the ground during discharge; 4th. Snakes, Bos-Constrictors and Snake Nests; 5th. All articles intended for pyrotechnic display which contain gun-powder; 6th. Articles commonly known as "Somot-a-gun," "Devil-on-Walk," "Crackit Stick and "Automatic Torpedoes," which contain arsenic. If all citizens work together this Fourth of July can be the happiest as well as the most harmless Los Angeles has ever had. W.

MONTAGUE When I depart my lowly oot And start to walk downtown, I know that motorists are not Allowed to run me down. I know that if I call a cop He'll have to leave his beat— And bid impatient drivers stop, To let me cross the street. I know, that being, trail and slight, If on the street it stray, At any time, by day or night, I have the right of way; And if a car, a truck or dray Should speed across my spine, The owner would be made to pay At least five dollars' fine. I pay my taxes when they're due, I'm one of the elect And sovereign folk entitled to Considerate respect. And though, or course, I do not rate With the financial class— All chauffeurs are compelled to wait And let me safely pass. Yet I am no cheap ogotist Like those contentious wights Who always velutly insist Upon their vested rights; I never battle on the street With dray qr car or truck — I find it is far more discreet To run and dodge and duck! Time saved at a crossing may b last in the emergency ward. FOR SALE---- 5 ROOMS; HARDWOOD W. OF CENTRAL—$4500.00 4 ROOMS MODERN—$ 5 ACRES IN PUENTE; BOULEVARD—$6500.00. One motorist in fifty will be involved in an accident in which someone will be taken to the receiving hospital during the coming year for treatment, according to a computation made by the Traffic Commission from receiving hospital statistics. There were, at the end of 926, 332, 000 automobiles registered in Los Angeles city, and 6,662 persons were treated at the receiving hospital for injuries sustained in automobile accidents. This is a ratio of approximately 50 to 1, although there are many cases where more than one person are injured in the same accident. Motorcycles are seven times as dangerous, the figures show. There were 283 persons treated for injuries in motorcycle accidents, within only 2,030 motorcycles registered in the city. This means that one motorcycle rider in seven is involved in an accident in a year wherein someone needs hospital treatment. Figures such as these clearly show that every motorist may have a serious accident during the year, and that careful attention to driving should be observed at all times. The only safe way is to obey the rules for driving, as a motorist, and avoid taking chances. The pedestrian, in turn, should avoid "jaywalking," and children should avoid running or in streets.
