Sheffield Takes Stand In Defense
The trial of Peoples vs. Sheffield is still attracting much attention and drawing large crowds to the courtroom every day. There is still a long line of people in the corridor trying to gain admittance to the courtroom and deputy sheriffs and police officers are kept on the job to maintain quiet and order in the hall.
Thursday afternoon, July 14, the state closed its case and the defense began. The first witness called for the defense was Inspector J. Finlinson, who was also the last witness for the state.
He was questioned as to the statements taken from Miss Cotes, Scott, officers Randolph, Bewley and Brown, which he said he took. When asked if he told Brown and Bewley to testify for Sheffield, he said:
"I never told Brown and Bewley to testify for Sheffield, neither did I tell them that we must stick together as the Chief was behind us. I showed Brown and Bewley a map of the house and asked them to explain to me their version of the shooting; they did and I found that it corresponded with mine. I went to the house several times and tried to find a 45 bullet hole, but have been unable to do so."
Continuing the case Friday the first to testify was Lieut. C. B. Hoye (whita) of the detective bureau Central Station. He stated that he saw Randolph in the receiving hospital about 9:30 the night of the shooting, and that he saw both Randolph's 45 and the jammed automatic.
"Randolph told me about the shooting and said, 'the S——B——got me, but I got him too.'"
Randolph was then called and he denied saying what Hoye said.
Mr. Wm. J. Pierce, nurse at the receiving hospital, was the next witness. He testified that he did not hear Randolph say what Mr. Hoye said but he did hear Randolph say, 'Sheffield was in the kitchen; the boy got me, but I got him too.'
Miss Delores Michel, stenographer in the detective bureau, was then called upon to testify. The points were brought out that in the statement which she took from Miss Catalina Scott, state witness, Miss Scott said that Randolph was shot from the front bedroom door. In the statement or Miss Ruth Coates, she said that she saw a streak of fire come from the front bedroom door.
Mr. Randolph was again called in reference to some accident insurance which he had collected after his arm was shot, but owning to the fact that Mr. Poist, the insurance man, was not there to deny or affirm the statement the testimony was deferred.
Lleut. Garrott of the Newton Street Station was then called. He was one of the investigating officers on the case.
"Upon entering the house, I saw Sheffield with a glass pitcher in his hand. The pitcher had some amber colored liquid in it. I did not smell it but it was the color and consistency of whiskey. When I arrived Mr. Faulkner was outside crying, but he came in with me."
Mr. Kroger, stenographer in the detective bureau of Central Station was then called and testified as to having taken down the statements of Brown and Bewley at the Central Station after the 24th or April.
Q. "Did you see Sheffield on the 24th or April?" was the question asked Mr. Curtis Mosby, who the next Witness called.
A. "Yes, I saw him at the Legion Nite Club, 1143 B. 12th street, about 11:30, he was with Officer Brown. He said that Randolph had been shot."
Mrs. Bertha Henderson, former cashier of the Legion Nite Club, took the stand and testified that she had seen Sheffield at the Nite Club on April 24th and that she remembered the date because it was just before her Birthday and that Sheffield had told her that he was not feeling as well because his partner had been
The Soaring Eagle entertained the Eastside populace through the courtesy of Dr. Bell's Super Radiola on last evening, when a great concourse of fight fans gathered in front of the Eagle office and amid the greatest enthusiasm, heard the fight called of from the ringside in New York blow by blow. In the fatal seventh round when Dempsey knocked Sharkey out a great cheer went up, and those who bet on the loser departed walking and talking to themselves.
Fatal Round: Dempsey came in a weaving. Sharkey held as the fire grew hot about his body. Dempsey suddenly whipped his left into Sharkey's stomach and followed with a right smash to the jaw that knocked Sharkey down. Sharkey got up to his knees at the count o'f nine, swayed and fell flat as the referee counted ten.
Q. "Did Randolph ever say anything to you about the case?"
A. "Yes, the next day out at the Santa Fe Hospital (Mrs. Randolph was there too). I asked Randolph how he was feeling; he said, I am in pain, but it makes me feel good to know that I got the man that got me.' He was also out to my house and said that he was at the District Attorney's office and that Mr. Dennison tried his best to get him to say that my husband had shot him."
Mr. Randolph was again called, and he denied having made the statements.
Mr. James Bartley of Central Station read on the witness stand, a statement taken from Mr. Randolph while at the receiving hospital, in which Randolph said that he saw men and women in the dining room drinking whiskey and that he saw money exchanged, and he also said that he shot Sam Faulkner with his 45 Colt. J. Hicky, another policeman from Central Station was then called. He was on the homicide duty after the inquest and went out to the house with Sheffield, and several officers. "Sheffield sheen demonstrated to us the happenings the night or the murder. He said that Randolph shot across the dining room table at Sam Faulkner, killing him. When we asked him why a 45 was not found in the deceased man's head instead of a 38 he said that one of his bullets must have killed the boy. We looked for a 38 bullet, but could not find it. Another member, of the homicide squad, Frank Condaffer, was then put on the witness stand. His testimony was practically the same as Mr. Hicky's, saying that they had looked for a 38 bullet hole or the bullet, but could not find him.
Monday morning, July 18th at 10:00 o'clock with judge E. Craig on the bench, the man of People vs. Sheffield was questioned. The first witness called was Mr. Renent Edkins.
Mr. Edgins testified that he had been over to Mr. Harla home the Friday before the murder. Dr. Darrington Weaver, Mr. Henry Mack, Wilfe Brunson, Leroy Sanders and Edgar Colbert, following witnesses, and they testified to the same fact that Edgins had. Judge White, counsel for Sheffield, tried to bring out the point that the above parties had been served liquor at the house, but was unable to do so because of the objection of the People and the sustaining of same by the court.
Sergt. E. Kynn, police officer, was then called. He said that he was working "under cover" in the month of April in the colored district.
Threatens to Shoot Sheildford
"I met Sam Fullerker in truant of a pool room on Central near 8th. I went out to his house and got a bottle of whiskey for which I paid him $2.00; we drank the whiskey. Going down 12th street with Sam one day, I saw Sheildford with a cowboy hat on and asked to Sam, 'Look at the colored cowboy.' To which he replied 'Cowboy nothing. That is Sheildford that is causing so much trouble around here and if he ever comes to my houses, I'll certainly shoot him.' He told me who Sheildford was. I asked him if he has a gun and he said that he

GREETINGS TO THE CALIFORNIA STATE CONVENTION
At this time we are delighted to welcome into our midst the twenty-first Annual Convention of California State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs.
The Federated Club's motto is, "Lifting As We Climb", and now, fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that the mighty bulwarks of prejudice within our own ranks will receive a death blow in this session, and that after the meeting and deliberating of these noble women of noble hue in this Southern California metropolis, Los Angeles will be a better place in which to live.
The writer is keenly alive as to the progress made in club life in California in the past seventeen years.
Last fall it was our privilege to look in on the annual sessions in the States of New Jersey and Rhode Island, and we found that in club personnel and accomplishments in affairs local neither of these States had anything on California except "hot air."
We hope that we are not presuming, but if this has not been done, we suggest that some white representatives from the leading white clubs be especially invited to sit in on the sessions.

TWO TRAINMEN KILLED
Augusta, Ga., July 9.—A. W. Wingo, engineer and Luther Henry, Negro fireman, were killed almost instantly, when a Charleston and Western Carolina Frelight train bound for Spartanburgh, S. C., struck a washout about 18 miles from Augusta. A Brakeman was also seriously injured.
casting of a program from a driving train, was being attempted, on the Northbound Pioneer Limited at the Chicago and P. Paul railroad while spelling toward St. Paul.
"The train carrying a special Studio car which is completely equipped for broadcasting, started its program at about 7 P. M. central standard time. The mile a minute studio carroed the designation station WH-BL with a wave length of 205 meters or 1470 kilocycles. The studio car, an all steel baggage car, is also equipped with a cage stenna and a cage counterpoise on the outside. When the car is in motion, the cages are carried parallel with the roof of the car and have an eighteen inch clearance.
A preliminary test, recently conducted, demonstrated complete feasibility of broadcasting from the studio car, road officials said, with letters of acknowledgement received from far distant points.
Radio engineers are watching the experiment with interest. One of the most important results is the determination of the practicability of the general use of telephonic communication on a fast moving train.
CHICAGO HAS GASOLINE STRIKE
At the time the writer wrote this article, Chicago was in the midst of a gasoline service station strike. All automobiles were tied up and traffic was at a standstill. $300 filling stations, were shut down and 500 tank drivers were sitting idly by waiting for a demand of a $10 increase over the existing $140 a month minimum wage for filling station attendants, and a 15 dollar increase over the pres. ent $175 a month for tank drivers.
Officials of the oil companies accused the union of putting an abrupt stop to peaceful negotiations. Patrick Burpill, head of the local, blamed employers for failure to adjust the wage controversy.
The unexpected climax to several weeks of negotiations came when officials of the brotherhood of teamsters called out drivers and attendants of gasoline stations on a strike until their demands were met. A settlement finally was effected and disaster averted, when a compromise agreement in which the drivers will receive

This week we will continue our article by telling you some more of the facts that we learned while on our trip to Santa Clara ranch in Lower California.
Immediately after we had arrived at Santa Clara Ranch, we sought an interview with President Theo W. Troy. We stated to Mr. Troy in a very brief manner what we had learned from Mr. Romero, our Trustee and through other channels as to the real status of the ownership of the Santa Clara ranch. We also asked President Troy if he had signed or had any knowledge or any signatures of any of the original purchasers as to having transferred this property to the Lower California Mexican Land and Development Company. His reply was that he had no knowledge, of any transfer being made and that he was sure that he personally had not signed any patients or its original buyers to the company. We then attempted to show him that the California Corporation was selling stock to the people on nothing but air. We also attempted to show Mr. Troy that since the company had no holdings it was no protection for the persons who were paying their hard earned cash into the coffers of the company and mostly Hugh E. Macbeth, the company attorney. After a bit more discussion with President Troy he seemed to realise that the ordinary interior in this proposition has no protection. So President Troy had he fix it no more than right that the common place should be protected and that he was ready and willing to step into the courts of Mexico and see that a just and legal transfer of the Santa Clara ranch be made so that the stock holders may be protected.
We felt and thought at the time that President Troy and manifested a magnificent and gracious spirit in showing that he was ready to see that the stockholders have a square deal never-the-other way, we could not wholly agree with Mr Troy's proposition, for we felt it would be entirely insufficient, and had made to settle this vital question, in other words, we felt it impossible for Mexico and their courts to be able to settle or decide matters pazanning to the action of a California Corporation.
Through this Corporation and Hugh E. Macbeth this proposition has been thrust upon the people. The stock was sold and the money spent or squandered here in California, and by the help of God, we intend to see that an account shall be made right here in California. In commenting on this question, one of our group has this to say:
Mexico owes me nothing but has abundantly given me her beautiful sunshine, and air, the scene of her gorgeous mountain tops and fertile valleys, the right and privilege to partake and enjoy her gracious hospitality while there. In California Hugh E. Macbeth has pleasingly extracted our money and, in return has graciously poured out upon us, unmeasured amounts of watered stock". He must answer here. We do not feel it would be just the correct thing to do to close this article without at least a reference to hospitality of Mrs. R. W. Head and Mrs. John Robinson

RACE RELATIONS
Dr. L. K. Williams famous orator, preacher, educator, statistician, and president of the National Baptist Convention of America, on last Friday evening at the Second Baptist Church, delivered to a large audience of Negro men and women one of the most forceful and logical speeches heard in Los Angeles on the foremost problem of the day—the Negro problem, according to Dr. Williams and proclaiming educators—white and black—this problem is the most pressing problem team American democracy and Christianity, present time. Dr. Williams is very popular regard to the future outcome of this problem and has strong faith in Christianity to alleviate it. Christianity teaches brotherly love, which respects human rights—the rights the Negro of today is asking for.
Dr. Williams ridicules democracy, calling it a mockery to civilization, which is very true, for the essence of true democracy is justice to all, regardless of race, creed or color. But American democracy depresses privileges to the white man seems to forget there is the Negro whose demands for the same privileges cannot be ignored. Laws cannot settle this Negro question, for they lack uniformity and enforcement. This question will only be settled by the hands. Man must be born again and Christianity will give him this new birth, stated Dr. Williams. Dr. Williams attacked the Ku Klux Klan as group rule against the Negro. Group rule is not democratic because it does not involve every individual. When democracy breaks down in its dealings to the Negro it is a failure to the White Man. Men rule people must be God rule people.
Dr. Williams brought out the fact that we are the "guests" or the white man, for they invited, us over and when we refused to accept their invitation the white man resorted to force to make us accept the invitation. Now we are here to stay and gain the personal rights endowed to every individual. Dr. Williams also said that the Negro race is the most popular race in America today. We have given the white man much competition—in fact we have given him more than any other races. The white man has given us competition, too, but it has not always been clean, honest competition. In spite of his prejudice we have won all are still whining by wider margin than any other race in America. Our triumph against the overwhelming difficulties the white man has hurried in our path has produced a bleak psychology in the mind of the white man, another interesting point of Dr. Williams was our knowledge of the white man. He said, we know more about the white man than the white man knows about us, for we have had more chances to know about him. We have outlived his psychology.
The white man thought the Negro to be a lazy individual after slavery, but the Negro proved himself to be a leading industrial factor and now he has to suffer the indigency or having the doors of industry shut in his face because of his color. The Negro must be of dignity of all types of labor. The Negro becomes more efficient industrially, the industrially efficient are the beaches.
Dr. Williams emphasized the fact that we are the true one-souled American, for other nationalities in America and it difficult to sever their ties with their mother country. They send their money back to their native land, the Negro invests his money in America and pours his wealth into her coffers. Since Emancipation the Negroes in this country have amassed a fortune of two billion dollars. The foregreaters interest in America is strictly material.
Dr. Williams touched upon the problem of segregation. He said that the Negro's pride in clean, healthful environments has caused him to move into communities which will meet requirements of a desirable environment. In most cases these desirable communities are inhabited by white individuals who protest against the gradual encroachment of the Negro, who is merely looking for decent surroundings, on their community. Then another great problem confronts us—the problem of segregation, which should not be tolerated, for has not every individual the right to adjust himself to suitable surroundings? Adjusting one's self to a desirable environment is one of the fundamentals of a democratic social order. Dr. Williams mentioned something which may seem rather queer—the fact that Negro does not associate with all Negroes, for his self-respect does not tolerate another individual or his race whose character is questionable.
Race hatred has grown out of tradition, poor thinking, propaganda, informed judgment, and a closed mind. It has grown out of our numbers out of our likeness, and our customs. We had to accept the customs and standards of the white race when we were set free, because we were ignorant and bad sons of our own. Why should the white man deny individuals whose standards are so well patterned after him? This problem has tested the white man. Christianity is a religion of men of one God cannot be so easy mad. There cannot be fatherhood without brotherhood; there cannot be brotherhood without fatherhood. Dr. Williams in closing emphasized these gracious sons and wounded that Christianity be applied to a problem of this

Visiting the Bronx Hotel we were much pleased at the patronage which this hostelry entourage and the general trend of affairs therein. We cannot refrain from the highest commendation for the proprietor, Mr. E. J. Seymour, who has demonstrated an abiding faith in this venture for and on behalf of the colored people.
In a large establishment such as this one which is perhaps the largest hotel in the entire country catering to our people, he has had many obstacles to surmount, but he has met them and nothing has shaken his confidence for ultimate success. Not even the crackers, or rich property owners who would do everything in their power to prevent the colored people from having a place worth while to stop at, nor the studied efforts of envy and malice could stop Seymour.
He has steadfastly and honorably kept the faith. Provided postions for the race by the score and glyes to them a strictly first class hotel and you can't beat that.

My Dear Mr. Broyles:
I thought you might like to hear
from one of your former students and
that is why I am writing you at this
time.
It has been quite two years since I was in your office, but I have thought and spoken of you to the many men and women whom you once taught in Texas. You are fondly remembered by so many here in Dallas. Two of your ardent admirers are W. T. Downing and W. H. Jackson both of Pridale View. Downing is the principal of a school in Valley Mills, Texas and Jackson is principal of one of our city schools.
My school is the largest in the South. We enrolled one thousand six hundred forty nine the past term. I had thirty one teachers. This school is a platoon and department school of one year; the only one in the city for colored. My salary is not just what

I think it should be. I get two hundred dollars per month for nine months. I am going to ask for twenty-seven hundred dollars per year. I have rental property that brings more than a hundred dollars per month. However I am doing well. I have a good wife who is a real helper.
Professor N. W. Harlee died just three weeks before the end of the last school term. I am sure you remember him as he was one of the oldest teachers in the state. He had been teaching in Dallas forty two years last February.
I should like very much to come again to your city and may be I shall do so in the near future. I may attend your university next summer.
I have finished my college work I started doing some summer work at Wiley University in nineteen hundred fifteen and on the 1st of May last I received my M. A. degree. My work for the Master of Arts degree articulated with the work for the B. A. degree. My work was very high for the several years I was engaged in the college work. I remember that I have one B grade which means that particular grade was between eighty percent and eighty nine percent. My other grades were all A grades. My honor was cum laud. I am a member of the Phi Beta Sigma fraternity and president of the Wiley Extension School now in operation in Dallas under the auspices of Wiley University. The present enrollment of this school is fifty one teachers.

(Continued from page one)
Randolph and I, were across the street behind some palm trees. Barnes went in the house and soon returned saying that they were dill out but would have some soon."
Q. "Tell what happened on the night or April 24th."
A. "Randolph and I left" Central Station and drove to 1358 E. 51st street. I parked my car on Ascot between 51st and 52nd street. We went through a court on 52nd, climbed the fence, passed by the rear house of 1358 E. 51st and started down the driveway. At the dining room window we paused and looked in the window and saw Mrs. Harris serving Mr. Dickson some amber colored fluid for which Dickson paid her some silver money. I could hear the money ring. Then we went to the front and knocked on the door, as the curtain was raised. I showed my badge and sald that we were police officers and to open the door. As we entered, the Coates girls ran to the kitchen. I brought them back and they, with Randolph, sat on the ducoid and I went to the kitchen to search for liquor. I started pulling out drawers and looking in any place where I thought liquor might be. While down on my knees looking in a drawer, I heard Randolph whistle and say, "She she's dumping it." I jumped up and just as I got to the swinging door between the dining room and kitchen I heard a shot. When I opened the door, I saw an arm protrading from the front bedroom door with a gun pointing at Randolph, then fired point blank at Randolph. Randolph fell and drew his gun; I shot at the arm and almost at the same time that I fired. Randolph fired his gun in the same direction. The door of the bed room shut."
Q. "While you were in the kitchen dd anyone come n?"
A. "Yes, Mrs. Faulkner, the mother, and Mrs. Faulkner, the wfe of Sam, came to the kitchen door and asked what was the matter. I told them that I was a police officer and was making a raid. Then they left."
Q. "What did you do after the bedroom door was shut?"
A. "I want back in the kitchen and through to the bathroom. I thought I heard a noise, and I fired at the bathroom door. I went through the bathroom into the front bed room and found Sam Faulkner's body, that was the first time that I knew that he had been killed. Then I returned to the kitchen from the way I came and saw Mr. Faulkner peeping in and I shot at his head. I was trying to protect my partner and myself and I didn't want anyone to shoot us."
Q. "Did you ever see Mrs. Paulkner, the mother, the house!"
A. "I didn't see her enter but I saw her leaning over her son's body and I saw Randolph go to the body, rack the gun, which was lying beside the body with his foot, pick it up and put it in his pocket." Mrs. Harris told her mother, "I was Randolph that killed son because I saw him fire twice in the direction of the bed room."
Q. "Did you see any officers in the house?"
house."
A. "Yes, I saw quite a few. We started looking for the empty shell from the deceased's gun and Officer Brown found it. I had to borrow a flashlight from one of the officers as I didn't have one.
Finds Liquor
Then I went outside to try to find the liquor that Mrs. Harris had dumped. Some officers went with me. I can't remember who. Beside the dining room window I found a glass pitcher, some broken glass, and beside the fence I found $ bottles of
what looked to be whiskey. The pitcher had a little whiskey in it. I took all of this to the station and booked it."
Q. "Did you book the 38 bullet that was found that night?"
A. "I did not book, it until April 29
because I had forbidden about it."
"Q. "After taking Mrs. Harris to Newton Station, what did you do?"
Newton Station, what did you do?
A. "Bewley went with me to Central Station in my car and Brown followed in his car. I never saw that automatic until I got it at Central Station. I made out my report and used Brown and Bewley's names as witnesses because they told me to do so. When we were at the house Bewley said, 'Shef we have this number on our list and you gof it just before we did.' They offered themselves as witnesses, I didn't ask them.
Q. "Did you tell them to testify for you?"
A. "I did not! They said that they had seen it all, and would be witnesses for me. I didn't tell them the Chief was behind us 100% because I didn't even see the Chief that night. I never had any conversation with them about the affair to even lead them to think that I wanted them to say what was not true."
Q. "Did you fix the automatic to make it appear jammed?"
A. "I did not, I only put some matches in it to keep the jam from exploding while handling it in the Property Clerk's office. I never saw the gun until I got it at Central Station to book it."
Q. "Did you take a drink in front of Santa Fe Hospital?"
A. "I did not, I didn't have any whisker at all that night."
Q. "Did you tell Randolph that 'everything was all right?'"
A. "I did not. I only asked him how he was feeling and told him that I would go over to his house and tell his wife about the accident and that my wife and I would be to see him the next day."
Heard Six Shots Altogether
Q. "How many shots did you hear or see altogether?"
A. "I heard 6. I heard one when I was in the kitchen, one the arm fired at Randolph, one Randolph fired at the arm, one that I fired at the arm, one that I fired at the bathroom door, and one that I fired at the head of Mr. Faulkner."
Mr. Sheffield denied having planted the three bottles of whiskey that he found, when asked that question. He said that he was not working directly under the supervision of Chief Davis, but was under Deputy Chief Plummer.
Miss Mitchell, stenographer in detective bureau Central Station, was then called to verify a statement taken from Miss Ruth Coates, one of the Peoples' witnesses and one of a party at the house during the shooting.
"Miss Coates said that she saw a streak of fire from the front bedroom door."
Mr. Polst, manager of accident and health department of the Equitable Insurance Company was the next witness. He stated that Mr. Randolph had a policy in the company, and had made out a statement to collect accident money on account of his injured arm.
G. "Did he say who shot him?"
A. "He said that a figure crouched behind some porters or a door had fired two shots at him."
This was the least witness for the defense, so at this juncture, the Defense rested its case.
OPENING ARGUMENT
Wednesday July 20 at 10 A.M. the case was continued. It Wm. Rivyom one of the prosecuting attorneys who opened the argument. He reviewed the evidence as presented by the witnesses emphasizing the facts as brought out by them (as: no one saw liquor in the house but Sheffield; that Sheffield found the 3 bottles of whisky, glass pitcher, and broken glass, as he stated, on the ground by the cast window, how was it thrown out of a screened closed window with the shades pulled down without break

ing the window and screen; that the automatic was jammed by Sheffield as noted by the marking on the gun; that Sam Fulkner's head was sticking out of the door and NOT his arm, as Sheffield testified; that Brown and Bowley had been properly coached by Sheffield; that Sheffield shot at Mr. Faufkner, Sr. for no reason at all, and several points that have been told in previous articles.
Mr. Brayton finished his plea about 3:10, and after ten minutes intermission, Mr. White, counsel for Sheffield, started his plea.
COUNSEL FOR DEFENSE BEGINS SUMMING UP
Mr. White was very "flowery" in his opening remarks making a short speech on policemen in general; their service to the people and their graves which were as sacred as those graves in Flanders Field, ending by saying: "It seems to be open season around this town for attacks upon the police department." He said that if Sheffield was guilty and the jury found him absolutely guilty that there was but one thing to do—hang him! But, on the other hand, if there was any doubt in the jurors' minds about anything of the case to acquit him!
He continued by saying that when the automatic was locked, as Mr. Brayton had said it was when Sheffield had made some markings on it, that the marking did not meet (they were in the form of X X), but when the gun was like it was when it was jammed, the X X met; that the Coates girls ran because they knew what it was Sheffield and Randolph at the door; that the statements of the People's witnesses changed during cross examination; that Mrs. Harris standing near the dining room window all of the time was very significant, because she was talking to someone outside and wanted to get rid of the liquor through the window; that "it has come to a pretty day when the District Attorneys speak or Finlinson who has given 17 years of his life to the people through the police department, as coaching people to say what is not true. Finlinson cannot be compared with such people as the Coates girls, Miss Scott, Brown and Bewley. At this time, it was past time for adjournment and the court adjourned to convene Thursday at 10 A. M.
Thursday morning, Judge White continued Ms plea to the jury. He said that when Sheffield shot at Faulkner, Sr., he did not know whether it was the man at whose arm he had shot or not, because he did not know that Sam Faulkner was killed; that the bullet of Randolph's went out the window, therefore it cannot be discovered; that Sheffield testified whenever asked and always told the same story.
"There is only one real person that gave testimony and that was M. B. Sheffield who towers above all the rest. And f the bright red blood carousing in Sheffield's veins was like the slimy ooze in Brown, Bewley and Randolph, he would be out on the streets as they are, but he would rather be in fall than to be like them with a stigma on their souls, for after all, bars and a cell do not make a prisoner. These men are avowed perjurers and perjury is the moundation stone of all injustice, the crime of crimes as it misleads jurors and convicts innocent men."
REBUTTAL BY DENNISON
At 11:40 Mr. Dennison began his rebuttal. He corrected White's statement of "only the bootleggers, gamblers, rapists, and men taken care of by fallen women are prosecuting Sheffield" and said that the better class of people wanted to see justice.
"Courts are temples of justice, and if shefield had entered this house an officers should, with a search warrant, etc., there would be no trial."
In continuing he said that the District Attorney's Office was not attacking the Chief of Police. He briefly went over the happenings on April 24th stressing the material points of each happening and corroborated them with the statements made by the witnesses. By this time it was past noon and the court was adjourned until 2 o'clock.

The rushing in and out of stores in the shopping districts isn't a walking anyway, in the opinion of lovers of that form of physical exercise.

We have lost the feeling of leisure which in former days was so conducive to walking. Even in our motoring we seem to be possessed of the idea that we must hurry to get somewhere, although we may have no particular destination in mind. An Englishman who even during his visit to this country spent much time in walking said of us that the pictures in periodicals representing the occupants of automobiles reclining in luxury and enjoying magnificent scenery did not depict us truly. That is not the way we cover the miles.
He was greatly amused over the fact that during his walking tours he was frequently offered rides by motorists: "they do not seem to understand", he says, "that a man on a walking tour is not in need of vehicular conveyance. They act as if the best thing about walking is giving it up and having a ride".
Obviously the automobile does not permit of sauntering. When the road is good, there comes the irresistable impulse to make the most of it, which to nearly all drivers means anywhere from 35 to 60 miles an hour. And consequently there is lacking the opportunity for quiet enjoyment of the passing landscape; and lacking too is the inducement for reflection and restful meditation which walking, either by one's self or with motoring has its pleasures, and on the whole they are no less than those of walking. And perhaps in the stress of modern life it is only natural that we should have taken to the thrill-producing form of exercise.

In a recent test 12 high school girls and 30 boys were subjected to the treatment. The girls thought it would be impossible for one of the female sex to cease from conversation for two weeks, but they would try. Two girls failed under the strain. One felt that she just had to ask "Is my nose shiny?" and the other that she must borrow a powder puff and she asked for it. One boy ran away but the others stuck to silence for two weeks mainly by keeping radio receivers glued to their ears.
One might secure an intimation of what the experience would be by ceasing from talking for an hour when in the company of others. Were one forbidden to speak, possibly there would be nothing else one would want to do so much. It is a voluntary act but most of us carry it on almost involuntarily. We are so accustomed to talking that it is automatic, though were it less so much of the conversation might prove of greater value. In the cases of those of us not suffering from defective speech, periods of silence might prove highly beneficial. Thoughts might catch up with conversation.

It seems as if the game of horse shoes is being indulged in more this year in Los Angeles than usual, but it could not be spoken of as a revival; for this form of sport, going back in principle to the discus throwing of the ancient Greeks, has never been absent within the period of written history. In early England it was known as quoits, with heavy iron rings used, and this name and the use of rings persists to a considerable degree, but horse shoes appear to be the official style in this country.
Quoit pitching became so general in England in the fifteenth century that royal attempts were made to end it in favor of archery. One of the writers of the period speaks of "quoiting as too vile for scholars." It is noted, however, that scholars at picnics still take to it about as keenly as any, while archery, much as there is to be said for its gracefulness and test of skill, still requires efforts to keep it alive. Horse shoes, first used by workingmen for lack of quoits, now are made specially for the game, with regulation weight, and finished as elegantly as desired, in gold bronze, nickel plate or aluminum.
Why regard the $2 bill with distrust? It's just as good as dollar bill used to be.
Have the men who made nickel cigars ever thought of giving a slab of corned beef with them?
A good doctor has to know almost as much about medicine who knows about human nature.
While the fellow with a poker face may get along, there are times when most of us think it needs poking.
Most of the things you think are necessary wouldn't be used at all if you didn't think they were necessary.

There is a peculiar- psychology about these racial international marriages. A few months gone by Roland Hayes, the tenor, was reported as engaged to marry a Hungarian Countess. There was a big to-do. The press of both races denounced the action. The white press from the prejudiced viewpoint of a black man marrying other than one or his race. The black press because it believed that he should have bestowed his marital favors on some woman of the race: that he should not bestow his affection otherwise. The question was the topic of discussion in the clubs and forums. Hayes was rapidly losing caste. The personal equation; compatability, artistic companionship, love, never entered into the topic. It was a mere matter of race—A black man to marry a white woman. Josephine Baker marries a white man, and you hear very little adverse comment even from race women.
The political matters around and about the Capitol are in Statu Quo. The reorganization program will go into effect on the 29th of July. It is predicted that very few, if any, changes will be made other than those necessary to function the several changes in the divisions. It's conceded generally that Senator Hirsch Johnson will succeed himself as United States Senator for California. The presidential atmosphere is some what foggy. President Coolidge does not seem to create much enthusiasm. California voters are a peculiar lot. One can never tell. We have seen the presidents picture screened and there was never a ripple of applause. Show Governor Young or Lieutenant Governor Fitts and the audience will break into cheers. So with Senator Johnson, he is still strong with the people.
There are rumblings of discontent among the protolariat of San Francisco. Mr. and Mrs. Voter are grinding axes and whetting carving knives. A goodly number of the City Fathers will have to do some tall explaining in order to retain their jobs in and around the civic center. Some of those departments who have drawn the color line to such a marked degree are liable to lose their political heads. They said that they could not do it in Los Angeles, but they did.
Perry Howard wants the New York I. B. P. O. E. of W. lodges to put up a bond of $30,000 to insure the Grand Lodge against arrest. Why, Finley and the outfit did not want 30 cents for any immunity against arrest when he paraded at the head of 3000 of the Order, and bowed his acknowledgments to the crowds along 5th Ave. But then, there was no election in sight.
Sierra Lodge, 742, of Sacramento is planning to give one of the most elaborate balls of the season on the night of Labor Day. They have already secured one of the city's best auditoriums and engaged one of the most famous orchestras in the State.
Notable events are happening so rapidly that they fall to thrill. A few decades past when it was heralded to the world that the Wright Brothers had invented a flying machine which arose his feet from the ground for a period of six minutes it was acclaimed as a miracle; and astounding feat. Then a French aviator flew the English Channel, Calais to Dover, and the feat was chronicled as the climax of human endeavor in the subjection of the elements. Now; Navigators of the air have crossed the North Pole; conquered both oceans, and so used are we to the accomplishment of the seemingly impossible that after the first vociferous acclaim, we forget.
Well they gave that fellow Agree, high school principal and church fast-totum, who was convicted as being one of a mob who flagged a white woman down in Georgia, one year on the chain gang, and a fine. We are not claiming that the sentence of Agree will have a deterrent effect on assaults of black women. Georgia has hardly the time to be educated to the fact that the condoning of one crime leads
On Sunday, July 24th, at 3:30 P M., at New Seventh Day Adventist Church, 27th and Wadsworth, the N. A. A. C. P. will hear reports of India anapolla Conference. Manhattan Beach will be discussed. Everybody come.
Mrs. N. S. Stewart and Mrs. Australia McCarty were joint hostesses to a beautifully appointed luncheon and shower honoring their sisters, Mrs. Manila Hickman, a visitor in the city, and Miss Tasmania Darden, a recent bride. Mrs. McCarty and Mrs. Stewart were assisted by Mrs. Jeanette Howard and Mrs. Jaunita Scott. The honored out of town guests included Mrs. Ols McCall, Mattle Gray, Modesta Williams and Miss Lydia McGowen. Summer flowers died with tulle bows in white, were used in the decorations, bride place cards marked the places for the guests. Many beautiful gifts were received by the bride.
to another. For years black women have been the common prey of untutored, therefore unscrupulous Georgians. Disregard of the virtuous rights of any woman is a desrespect for all. Until Georgia courts convict, without regard to race or color its sending to the chain gang of one hoodlum will have no effect.
Up in Jackson, Amador County, Henry Jackson, was for years one of the familiar sights on its streets. He had a little barber shop and it was the rendezvous for many of Jackson's citizens who delighted in uncle Henry's reminiscences of Civil War days. He was a veteran of the Civil War and when he died the other day at the ripe age of 85 years he was given a veteran's burial by the members of the American Legion (white), with the military honors which are a part. That was in California.
Down in Louisiana there lived a young man (black) who had answered to the call of a nation's chief magistrate to go to war and fight to make the World Says for Democracy". He went: He unloved ammunition, tons and tons of it. He coiled ships and toiled in the mud and slime of Brest until his bones ache and tired nature would cause him to fall asleep on a pile of coal or box of stores. Every time he lifted a shovel of coal or stained at a bale of goods, he would ward off fatigue by saying "I am making things better for the folks back home. I am helping to make the world safe for Democracy."
On next Sunday at 11:00 o'clock, the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company will hold the last of a series of Anniversary services at the First A. M. E. Zion Church, Corner Pico and Paloma streets.
The service Sunday will be the climax to a great anniversary celebration. Rev. I. Albert Moore, the progressive pastor of the First A. M. E. Zion Church, will deliver a special business sermon, and an extraordinary program will be presented featuring the Golden State Male Quartette which is being trained by Prof. Claude V. Pitts. The President of the Company, Mr. William Nickerson, Jr., will tell of some of the service rendered by the great Golden State.
These services have proven to be an overwhelming success. The public receives inspiration from the information that is given out concerning the progress of the Company and the programs are very entertaining. The Golden State is performing a striking service to our group by giving employment and using its reserves in saving homes, building homes and supporting business enterprises. In addition to this the Company is paying from time to time large amounts and dollars per month to the disabled individual, formerly Bryant, M. M. H. Allen Chuckey, Samuel W. and learn something about your insurance term.

Substituting for Tony Fuentes against Vic Alexander. Battling Ivy, a white battler supposed to have a punch as poisonous as his name put up one of the non-fightingest fights I ever had the pleasure to witness. He couldn't fight and he wouldn't let Alexander fight. He resorted to holding and a defensive crouch and the pride of the Avenue couldn't fathom that style of fighting. For eight long rounds Alexander swung and missed. but in the nith Vic happened to land one of the many Vics he aimed a Ivy midsection and Ivy waned down, the bell saved him from a knock-out. The tenth was a repitation of the other nine, Alexander swinging and missing, Ivy holding and running. Vic was awarded the decision, but me, oh my, what a fight.
Faoline Uzendun, the bounding basque of Spain, upset the dope bucket when he knocked out Harry Wills, the Brown Panther. In fact he turned the bucket up side down.
Pooline wasn't conceded an outside chance of winning but you never can tell about this fight game. Willis was tamed from a wild roaring panther to a purring house cat by the hard hitting little Spaniard. Thus fell the idol of all the fastic followers of our race. After seventeen hard years in the ring Harry must realize by now that he is through.
I advise him to retire to Strivers'
Row in Harlem and take a well-earned rest.

LA PREMIERES
BASEBALL CHAMPS
The La Premieres are the baseball champions of 1927. They emerged victorious in three successive games and were held to one tie. Among the losers were: the Laddle Boys, Golden Eagles and the highly touted Merry Makers, the ancient rivals of the La Premieres who were overwhelmingly trounced to the tune of 17-5 which settled a long drawn out argument. An All-Star team held the champions to a 10-10 tie.

Curtis Mosby, who re-opened the Bronx Palm Gardens for high class entertainment announces that he is in no way connected with the Hotel proper and that any unfortunate happening such as those Pullman Porters caught gambling in their own room, has no reflection on his cabarat which he is conducting properly.

Corrine Hart, the new entertainer from the Sunset Cabaret in Chicago, the Sunset Cabaret's popular staff of performers and Mildred Washington's Revue. Curtis Carpenter, the former versi-til and talented manager, is back in charge staging new and original features each night.
HUDKINS-BAKER MATCH GREATEST OF YEAR ON COAST
There is more talk along Spring street these days regarding "left hook" and "right crosses" than ever before in boxing history.
All because of Ace Hudkins' bout July 26th at Wrigley Field with Gergeant Sammy Baker, the Mitchell Field soldier who stopped Hudkins in seven rounds at New York and punched Callahan full of holes before knocking out Muzyn in the ninth round in Chicago. Baker will enter the ring a 10 to 8 favorite at least.
In New York he would be a 10 to 8 bet or better.
But Lee Angeles likes its own children and especially the "Nebraska Wildcat" who never really lost a fight in this part of the country, excepting his meeting with Fommy O'Brien at the Renaissance Center. Both Baker and Hudkins are the same slam-bang style of fighters. Baker is said to be the hardest puncher.

FIRESTONE AND THE NEGRO IN LOS ANGELES
Newspaper dailies in Los Angeles this week broadcasted the news that the Firestone Tire and Rubber Co. had acquired a large tract of land fronting on Alameda St. flanked by Manchester and Florence avenues in the vicinity of the Goodyear Rubber Co. for the sum of a few petty millions and contemplated the erection of a several million dollar plant for which Los Angeles and California are singing praises.
While it means much to the community, in reality we doubt if the local Negro will have anything to rejoice about. Goodyear built a wonderful plant here a year or two ago and we had great hopes that they would employ some Negroes in their plant but to date they have failed. You can't find a Negro out there with a sry glass and further they stated they would not employ any though there are at least 25 thousand Negro laborers and mechanics in the city. So Goodyear means nothing to the Negro except that if he has cash he can buy their products.
How About Firestone?
And now that Firestone is coming, what will he do? Will he break the ice or allow such organizations as the Friday Morning Club (a woman's club) and several other such organizations dictate to the policy they must employ here and employ only whites? Will they do a Sears Roebuck sault and exclude the Negro in a general way from their payroll? Yes. Firestone is coming but unless the Negro gets busy and starts to combat the feminine organizations that are opposing hisgressive Negro back into what they call "his place," he is going to be confronted with some real hard times.
Firestone as is known, has acquired large plantation holdings in Liberia and does employ Negroes there for the reason it is an economic question. Here in America twelve million Negroes must live and such being the case he must be prepared to hold his ground against such propaganda put out by such organizations as the Friday Morning Club that are injecting the un-American principle of prejudice the minds of big white business Negro help either common or skilled labor.
Archie Nelson has promised his bus a vacation. It holds 3 passengers beside himself. We're wondering who else will go.

Add Oil to Fuel
• In Your New Car
One quart of light oil per 10 gallons of gasoline, poured directly into the fuel tank, may be a great help during the first few hundred miles of driving in a new car, according to the National Automobile Club.
At an altitude of over 6,00 feet above the sea, with a splendid panoramic view of orange groves and numerous thriving Southern California cities stretching beneath it, the "Rim of the World Drive" in San Bernardino has been undergoing reconstruction which will give this beautiful resort land much better and modern road facilities, according to information received from the Touring Department of the National Automobile Club.
The present work, while only a beginning of contemplated improvements, will make this scenic drive a "high-gear" road and, being routed on the southern slopes, greater possibilities for winter travel will be assured. This drive, which is also known as the "crest," begins at Waterman Canyon and follows the old "Crest" route to Bear Lake. Section "A" ascends to the summit of the San Bernardino mountains, ending at Squirrel Inn. Section "B" now under reconstruction, lies along the crest of the ridge to Runnin Springs Park.
It's a bad sign when the driver reads only the billboards.
A Car Now to Fit
Every Pocketbook
/ An automobile to fit every picketbook. That is fast becoming the situation in America today, according to the National Automobile Club.
Although there are less manufacturers producing today than there were a few years ago, there has never been a time when so large a choice was available to the buyer as there is to day. There are inexpensive cars, medium priced cars, and luxurious cars with four, six, or eight cylinders. There are red cars, blue cars and striped or vari-colored cars. The upshot of it all is that there is scarcely a buyer who cannot find just what he wants in the matter of price, taste and needs.
Money made the mare go, but it's credit that runs a lot of motor cars.
Is Make A Vehicle?
Court To Be Puzzled
Is mule a vehicle? That is what Louisiana court will be saked to decide, according to the National Automobile Club, A motorist, daring along the road-on a dark night run into something, which caused his car, to overturn and injure him. The obstruction was a mule. As all vehicles are required by the state to carry a tail light, the motorist is wondering whether he can prove to the court that the mule is a vehicle.
When you go kailing, ring the door bell, don't toot the horn. This has long been a matter of etiquette. Now North Carolina is going to have it a matter of law, according to the National Automobile Club.
A recent law in that state makes it unlawful to use the horn for any other means than a warning device, or to make any unnecessary, noise, loud or harsh sounds other than a reasonable warning! Does this mean a warning to get out of the way or a warning that the boy friend has arrived and is waiting?
The Worn Out Cars?
What shall we do with automobiles when they have reached the stage of second childhood? That is the question which is bothering many cities, according to the National Automobile Club.
A new departure among Kansas City automobile dealers calls for a $10,000 organization to take care of 12,000 decrept cars in that city. This plan is being carefully watched by dealers in other, large cities as a possible solution of the disposal problem.
Lubricate Engine
At Regular Times
Don't wait until you hear a squeak before lubricating your engine. A squeak means a dry or dirty bearing and play come at a time when you are far from an off supply, according to the National Automobile Club.
Change the oil at regular intervals of about 760 miles during the summer and keep an eye on the oil guage for possible failure in the lubricating system.

Carolina Man-Hunt Ends With Death of Hunted
Morgantown, N. C., July 12—The man hunt, which has been in progress in and around these parts and participated in by thousands of white folks and a few colored folks, so they say, ended the Fourth of July when Broadus Miller, the hunted man, was surrounded and killed. According to the first reports of the killing of the alleged slayer of a fifteen-year-old white girl, officers surrounded Miller and he gave battle and Miller was killed. Miller end report followed closely in the wake of the first to the affect that Commodore Burleson, a mountaineer member of the posse, killed the fugitive. Any way, Miller is dead and the man hunt is over
This hunt has been going on for a period of two weeks and several "suspects" were arrested. Monday the posssee came upon Miller in the mountains and a battle followed in which the fugitive was slain. This climax to the man-hunt gave rise to a real celebration of the Glorious Fourth here and when the body of the slain man was brought to town and placed on display at the County Jail, more than five thousand citizens gathered around to view the remains and to pay tribute to the mountaineer who had killed him.
Moscow And American Negroes
BY WILLIAM PICKENS
For The Associated, Negro Press)
There are very few Negro Communists in the United States; more than a tenth part of the American population are Negro people, but not even a twentieth part, perhaps not one fifteenth, of American Communists are Negroes. And yet, because some New York newspaper has just "discovered" the names and addresses of a few of these Colored Communists, there is a great alarm and cry of, "Help! murder! Congress must do something about it!"
The fact is: the newspapers have not "discovered" anything—except to these people who are very ignorant or colored people's affairs. It is well known that there are some Negro Communists, and the constant wonder is that there try not more, considering the status of colored Americans.

And it is also known that these Communists, like all other party politicians, have been doing, and will doublebless continue to do what they can to convert others to their way of thinking. But the outstanding fact is, what the papers do not seem to care about, is the larger proportion of Negroes team of what have beheaded the call of Communism, in spite of the relatively much more unfavorable situation of the Negro population.
It need not be forgotten that similar alarming statements were made concerning, "Gujian propaganda," among American Negroes during the world war—in order to make this Russian menace, sound still more alarming, one newspaper, speaking of Negro students that have gone to be educated in the "Eastern University" at Moscow, says; "From 50 to 100 of these instruments of propaganda have been shipped out of the United States," etc. But this is how to read that style of journalism: just take that minimum figure 50, and take away the zero, and you have the correct number. 6. ONLY FIVE AMERICAN STUDENTS could, after a long campaign, be inducted to take advantage of the Soviet government's worldwide offer for people to come and study under free scholarships in their university at Moscow—but more than 1,200 other students of other colors accepted: white, yellow, eastern, and western—American white people, English white people, German white people, French white people, and many peoples from Asia. Only ONE NEGRO FROM AFRICA accepted. One of the five American Negro students died, so that the remaining "one" is: one African, four Native American Negroes and one dead One—What a menace this is to the government and people of these United States!
The Russian government asked for only 12 American Negro students at the time,—and all the hard efforts of American Communists could find only 5 that would accept.—And that is how "Three black crowns", when traced to the source, becomes "something not quite as black as a crow".
Schifley Addresses
Teachers At
State College
Orangeburg, S. C., July 11.—(By the Associated Negro Press).—One of the interesting things closing the first week of the State College Summer School was an address by W. A. Selliley, State Superintendent, for Negro schools to more than three hundred teachers enrolled. The State Superintendent was introduced by Professor Howard Greg, Director of the Summer School, who in presenting him told of the improvement South Carolina was beginning

ALLEN'S TIP
NEW AND USED
to make in Public School Education since Superintendent Schiffley's entrance into office. -
Superintendent Schifley in his address to the teachers emphasized the necessity of cooperation and hard work to bring the Negro School on a par with other schools, and also told of his efforts to see to it that not a county in the state be without a Rosenwald School within the next few years. He explained this could be done if the teachers would go back to their respective communities and have their pupils earn and give one dollar per pupil per year towards building improvements. Another interesting bit of information Superintendent Schifley in directing questions to the teachers in the audience was that practically every county in the state had a representative attending the summer school here. This address by Superintendent Schifley is just one of the few that the Summer teachers are to hear from authorities in different fields of endeavor.
