N.A.A.C.P. Wins Beach Victory
DUE CREDIT FOR REAL VICTORY
The successful outcome of the ugly situation of Manhattan Beach is indeed such that all parties to the same are worthy indeed of the sincere appreciation of all people who stand for a square deal. The National Association through its very intrepid and far sighted attorney Hugh E. Macbeth, Mr. and Mrs. Slaughter, who are located at the Beach, is responsible for the good work. The various clubs and organizations and individuals which rallied to the call are all indeed worthy of the highest credit for their most splendid work for justice and the square deal. We suggest a testimonial gather is in order for all concerned.
Rocky Point, R. I., Aug. 12.—A clap of thunder and a flash of lightning settled an argument between two colored gentlemen, saved a hospital bill and a possible jail sentence here Monday.
Just as Edward Smith of a small Connecticut town had reached the climax of his argument and was about to settle the dispute with a half-filled quart bottle over, the patent leather haired head of Emanuel Jones of New Bedford, Mass., a sharp clap of thunder and a flash of lightning shattered the bottle in Smith's upraised hand.
Both men were momentarily stunned by the shock ad immediately vowed not to carry their discussion to the point of violence, but instead, needless to say, the combatants are running yet, if the speed from which they left the apot is judged.
The small conflict between Smith and Jones was only one of the many similar fasticus which were engaged in here last Monday. On that day 5,000 Negroes from all part of New England gathered at the seashore resort to commemorate some kind of an Independence Day. This is an annual celebration and was this year held under the auspices of the Patrick E. Toy Post of Boston and the Eugene Penny Post of Providence Veterans of foreign wars, and as usual, many of their comrades and friends came steeped in synthetic gin and armed to the teeth to fight an imaginary enemy. This year, however, the fight feature of the celebration was cut short before any casualties took place, for just as the boys were warming up to the custom of the occasion, great sheets of rain came down in torrents greatly cooling their violent intentions and a shelter-skeler scurry for shelter and for home ensued. As a result, the tailor shops in colored settlements all over New England are doing business this week, pressing fineries back in shape for next Sunday.
Echoes From Sheriff Traeger's 1926 Successful Campaign
On last Wednesday in Judge Chambers' Court there took place a trial for service due from campaign work by C. H. Alston, prominent real estate outlaw Central avenue.
The trial was out or the ordinary from the fact that when a candidate wins there is hardly ever any question but that such expense as services are promptly taken care of. Mr. Alston supers that a year and six months has brought him no success or relief and brought suit against C. W. Craddock for pay for his service.
It developed at the trial that Mr. Craddock made no denial of the debt and declared he would pay the same. However, Mr. Alston says he has had time a plenty and he wants him to come across right now.
The judge took the case under advisement and will pass judgment at an early date.

The Western Baptist Association of Southern California held its 37th Annual Session in the City of Pasadena, August 8th to 15th. There were approximately fifty churches and auxiliaries represented and an attendance exceeding that of any previous session. Dr. W. D. Carter, the pastor of
Dr. Carter, His Church Entertained
The Association
the entertaining church and his membership proved ideal hosts and everything possible was done to make the session from their point of view, a success. The city papers gave wide publicity to the meeting and daily reports of the progress of the session were read throughout the meeting. The growth of the Western Baptist Association has been marvelous. From an organization representing but a few hundred members and confining its work almost solely to local missions, it has grown until it now represents a constituency of 7,000, with a definite program including local, state, home and foreign missions. There is an educational program of larger proportions and the system of work and co-operation has furnished information for persons from other sections making surveys of religious work.

M.
County's First Negro Interne To Practice In Los Angeles
Notable among the list of physicians and surgeons who passed the State Board of Medical Examiners last June as announced this week through the Metropolitan dalles, is the name of Dr. John M. Robinson, Jr., graduate of the University of California Medical School.
Dr. Robinson received his bachelor's degree in 1923 from California, and entered the Medical School as the youngest member of his class. Owing to his high scholastic standing, he was selected to do special work in the medical and surgical clinics in the University Hospital while still an undergraduate and served as acting internine in obstetrics during his senior year in the San Francisco Hospital. Upon recommendation of the surgical staff of the University Hospital, he was chosen to do special research work in diseases of the thyroid gland. He entered the Los Angeles General Hospital as the first Negro internine after a competitive examination with medical men from Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, Yale, Harvard and other schools of medicine throughout the country, with a very high rating. And, according to a statement of Supt. Wood to a prominent race politician, "by his diligent application to duty, his professional ability and his genial disposition, he has opened the way for other Negro physicians who might aspire to a place in the service of this institution, for he virtually earned the respect of the patients and the entire personnel of the staff here, despite all prejudices."
Dr. Robinson is the son of Dr. J. M. Robinson, Sr., chief surgeon of the Bush Memorial Hospital and associate surgeon of the Missouri Pacific Hospital of Little Rock, Arkansas. He will practice in this city with offices in suite 319-21 of the Bryson Building, formerly occupied by the late Dr. J. S. Outlaw.
Mrs. Elizabeth Edwards
The above is a likeness of Mrs. Elizabeth Edwards, one of the most active club women in the State of California.
Mrs. Edwards was instrumental in the formation of the now famous Friday Morning Iroquois Club; the er-President of the Past President's Council; member and tireless worker in the Beth Eden Baptist Church, and an all around friend to man.
The now memorable session of the California State Federation is just another example of the things that Mrs. Edwards has helped make a glorious success.
We deem it not only a privilege, but a duty for the California Eagle to pay this most worthy Christian and club woman a bit of praise.
VOTE OF CONFIDENCE GIVEN DR. H. C. HUDSON
N. A. A. C. P. PRESIDENT HAS SUPPORT OF THE MASSES
MONSTER GATHERING AT ZION
A. M. E. CHURCH LAST SUNDAY;
JUDGE GEORGIA BULLOCK
SPEAKER OF THE DAY
A rosing meeting of the local branch was held at the A. M. E. Zion Church at Pico and Paloma streets last Saturday afternoon when the Auditorium of this church was filled to the utmost for the occasion.
After a brief routine of the regular meeting which resulted in the selection of Mrs. M. G. Patton as president of the Women's Auxiliary, the
DR. HUDSON, Pres. N. A. A. C. P.
speaker of the day. Judge Georgia Bullock was presented through the chairman of the Program Committee, Mrs. J. Hill by Mrs. Georgia Robinson. Judge Bullock made a very pleasing address which evoked much enthusiasm and tremendous applause.
FIRE WORKS ARE LET LOOK.
After a collection had been raised which was very liberal, Dr. Hudson, the president, announced the great victory gained in the Manhattan Beach case, when the trustees of that burg announced a change of front and that heinceforth Manhattan Beach would be just the same as any other broadganged and progressive municipality and had receded from any Jim Crow policy of any sort or fashion.
VOTES CONFIDENCE
On the heels of this report, like a bolt out of a clear sky, a situation was revealed which the people as a rule did not know ever existed. That feature was understood to be that regardless of the huge success as a result of the unstring work of the president, that an individual or individuals had being made a subtle but perilous whispering campaign against their very own president.
At least this is what this writer gathered from the unfoldment of things. At any rate Dr. Hudson brought his stewardship rightfully and squarely up to the people and in return received an overwhelming vote or confidence.
There were those who sought to say that this move was unusual and reflected on the Board of Directors, but such persons were promptly heaped down by the members. The branch overwhelmingly voted to Dr. Hudson its unqualified approval for his action in the Manhattan Beach case, like wing in the Sheffield case.
We have repeatedly called attention to the fact that there should be some action taken in regard to $t_0$ this important question. We are not doing our duty either by the race we represent put to the race in question if we foolishly staff over the opportunity offered. The Negro likes the climate of Los Angeles and we have now close to one hundred thousand among us. We must come to an understanding of some character or step aside and trust o luck.
This course would be fatal to both races. In proceeding to consider the question we must not be blinded with hate or selfishness. The Black Man is surely entitled to every consideration, but it is to be hoped that the White race is also to receive a like consideration. The time is rapidly approaching when the question will have to be settled one way or another. We are slowly drifting into danger and care should be exercised.
We are reproducing a letter sent us that explains the writer's view polis; we also follow it with a bit of news appearing in one of our local papers recently. It will pay the reader to read both and then lay aside the California American for a moment and think the matter over calmly. Let us try and arrive at a Christian American decision, one that will harmonize with our highest ideals, it will take us some time, for racial prejudices must be overcome. But remember the question MUST BE SOLVED SOME TIME and why not begin the effort to acquaint ourselves with the facts, in order that we can do the thing that should be done.
The letter follows:
Since the landing of our Pilgrim fathers, to this present day we have displayed to the world, the spirit of dauntless courage, loyalty and faith. Our nation has been foremost in the achievement of many noteworthy events. We have proven our supremacy on land, sea and in the air. Do we wish to preserve this record
Gathered beneath the protecting folds of Old Glory, we, as representatives of a great nation live in a sense of peace and security, falling to hear the stealthy footsteps of the enemy at our gates. An enemy whose hoary hands are clutching at the very heart of our civilization, whose sensuous gaze is riveted upon the fair flower of American womanhood. An enemy who has come to destroy the very essence of American culture and idealism.
Are we aware of this creature—the negro—the black menace? Are we prepared to meet the situation which is so seriously endangering our future and the future of our children? Are we going to allow the Negro to intermarry with our Caucasion blood until the purity of Caucasion blood is tainted beyond recognition? Should we be forced to allow negro encroachment in Caucasian districts, where our children must attend the same schools, play in the same play grounds and live in an environment which is altogether undesirable for their development?
Must we expose our wives and daughters to insults and ravish at the hands of the negro?
We have in Los Angeles alone a negro population of eighty-five or ninety thousand. Recently certain negro organizations have combined in an effort to bring thousands more of their race to our city, from the Mississippi flood district and other states, Los Angeles, at the present time, has not enough manufacturing industries, etc., to give employment to the present population. Are we not encouraging crime and burglary by allowing an increase of undesirable and poverty stricken persons of the black race to be imposed upon us by the thousand?
Do we realize that in Los Angeles we have several negro newspapers published on Central avenue, such as The Pacific Defender, The California Eagle, The Pacific Enterprise, The New Age Dispatch, etc., which are spreading propaganda and broadcasting heated against the Caucasian race? Do we realize that the negro is showing friendly co-operation with the Russian Boda? Do we realize that the negro race in America has a national organization with a fund of ten million dollars with which to have our own organization and economy.
ally and otherwise?
How can we meet this situation as a Christian race. We realize that our Creator has placed the nego upon this earth for a purpose and it should not be our desire to crush him, yet God has originally placed this race in Africa where they should establish a nation according to their own ability and ideals. The negro, however, being ashamed of his race, color and nation has migrated from his homeland and now lives as a parasite in a Caucasian realm. Since he has chosen this means of existence, he must undoubtedly pay the price for his folly, and not expect us as a Caucasian race to stand humbly aside and allow this imposition to go on.
If our nation is to be saved from this menace and white supremacy permanently established, it is necessary for every Caucasian citizen to co-operate for the good of the race. There is no time to be lost, for already the monstrous shadow has been cast upon us. We have we time to save ourselves, but delays may result in disaster.
We now offer without comment an excerpt appearing in an article taken from the Los Angeles Examiner of July 19, 1927:
"Sobbing her distress in the district attorney's office yesterday, Virginia Meyers, 16-year-old Lincoln High School graduate, heard Deputy District Attorney Clifford Thomas order a statutory charge filed against Melville Leighton, negro football player, who also attended Lincoln High.
"I'll marry him if it will save him from prison," Virginia wept.
"Mr. Thomas explained to her that California laws prevented marriage between whites and negroes.
"In a statement made to the district attorney both Leighton and the girl admitted their love.
"I first began going out with him about two and one-half months ago," Miss Meyers said. "I drove my car around to school to get him. I went out with him about four times."
"PUTS BLAME ON GIRL"
"Leighton, while freely admitting his relation with the girl was inclined rather to blame Miss Meyers.
"I wasn't the aggressor in this case," he said in his statement. I treated her as any white boy would have treated her as far as respect is concerned around the school. I think the charges are rather stiff. I have several notes here that she wrote to me. She always called my home and came after me. I never called her.
"The couple were arrested in the girl's automobile on West Thirty-fifth street, July 15.
"LIVES WITH PARENTS"
"Juvenile authorities declared that the girl fell in love with Leighton on account of his football prowess."
"The girl lives with her parents at 1191 Hydie Park avenue, Inglewood. Leighton lives with his parents, 1884 East Thirty-seventh street. He was placed in jail following his arrangement in Municipal Court. The girl was taken to Juvenile Hall."
—California American.
Dear Mr. California American, in the first paragraph of your article, I note that you ask this question—Is the American Negro Mission to Canadian Supromacy? You not only ask the question, but likewise in the name breath, answer it. For you admit that you have repeatedly called attention to the fact that something should be done while the opportunity is ripe.
You speak of the American Negro as an alien. From the tone of your article I am persuaded to believe that you have but recently adopted this country, but have not yet. He adopted by the country you pretend to, protect with your assistance propaganda—You freely admit that you know nothing about American History, when you say that the Negro migrated to this country because he was ashamed of his nation—Read Spear's and other American authorities on the Slave Trade in America and the West Indies.
For your enlightenment air, a Negro wants you to know that not only did he come to America on a second but forced invaded before the foundation of this country. Because he will help
BOB AT THE BAT
Last Sunday afternoon to a crowded house of more than five thousand people Bob Shuler tried the present City Administration and found it guilty of vice and corruption.
In speaking of the Jacobson case, Mr. Shuler said: "Councilman Jacobson may or may not be guilty of any offence that justifies his arrest. He and the public can afford to await the production of court evidence. In the meantime the public should assume the innocence of the Councilman. But as to the crookedness of our law enforcement machinery one need have no doubts.
The arrest of Councilman Jacobson under the circumstances as contended for either by the Councilman or by the arresting officers proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the police forces of Los Angeles are aligned with the vice forces of this city.
Mr. Shuler's words rang out, and if words were shots at the end of his discourse, Mayor Cryer, Asa Keyes and other conspicuous characters of the present city administration would have lain prostrate at his feet.
Mr. Shuler's speech which included the arrest and its aftermath of Councilman Jacobson was a fearless attack on vice and corruption as it is practiced in Los Angeles.
SUNBURSTS FROM
FROM ABROAD
French politeness is famous the world over, but it has been my observation that a good deal or if at least, is of the surface variety.
Like many things which are practiced constantly, it is likely to become a mere form. For instance, you may be standing in line at a ticket window. The Frenchman's apologies will be profuse as he tramples on your toes and jabs you with his elbows, and many will be his "pardon monsieur" as he struggles to get ahead and take your place in line, but take it he will if given half a chance. It is far from uncommon for a Frenchman to walk directly between a lady and gentleman whom he may meet on the street—always with his "pardon"—for he has no sense of keeping to the right, and lucky indeed is the woman on a Paris street car who is given a seat by a member of the piterer sex.
Probably the one thing that "gets the goats" of Americans in Paris more than all others, is the footing accorded the Negro.
I doubt if any American can see a Negro walking down the street with a white girl hanging on his arm without experiencing a feeling of disgust, but such sights are anything but rare in Paris.
In many or even the better cates, Negroes, usually accompanied by fair companions, are accorded all the privileges of whites, and the white girls dance with them quite as readily as with males of their own race. Association of white girls with Orientals is even more common. Paris is nothing, if not cosmopolitan.

NEW BEAUTY LAWS HITS LOS ANGELES MAIDS
A law similar to the one no win affect in the state of Illinois has been passed in the state of California and will effect all Pullman Mails operating out of the Los Angeles District. The Illinois law is quoted as follows: The State or Illinois requires that any person practicing beauty culture is required to obtain certificate or registration. The expense of this registration is $15.00 including examination certificate and fee for the first year with renewal charge of $1.00 each year thereafter. This includes marringing and trimming of hair, as well as facial treatment. This law seems rather unfair to the mails it means that a girl entering this class of service must be prepared to pay out, about $30.00 at the start, $15.00 for examination fee, and $15.00 for a uniform. It is going to cost something to be a Pullman Mail from now on. The law might even effect some of the mails already in the service when it comes to passing the examination, providing it is a rigid one. Mr. Diefert is interviewing the mails as they report in regards to the new law.
PORTERS SEEK FIGHT SPECIALS
With three fight specials already lined up for the Dempsey-Tunney fight in Chicago on the 22nd of September, Portors are bending every effort to be among the lucky ones to go. Jack Doyle, prominent fight promoter, of this city will run a fight special over the Southern Pacific, a De Lux train. One will be operated over the Union Pacific and J. P. Mills will have charge of the De Lux train over the Santa Fe. All of these trains should be worth any porter's trouble as they will carry the leading sports of California. The biggest part of them will bet on Jack Dempsey, and it is the writer's advice that should you be selected, make all you can go and hold on to it for dear life, because if the Honorable Mr. Jack Dempsey suffer defeat at the hands of Mr. Tunkey, it will be every tub coming back. Of course it is understood that the writer could not miss such a wonderful opportunity of seeing his old town in September and you can lay your bets down that he will be on board of one of the three specials when they leave Los Angeles if he has to pull a one-eyed Conley stunt. Nuf sed. Are you going?
Even Mr. Ted Cook recognizes the California Eagle as a fearless journal. Mr. Cook happens to be the writer of Cook-Coos in the Los Angeles Examiner and above all people is in a position to know what the word fearless means. Anyone who has ever read Mr. Ted Cook's Cook-Coos, does not have to be told that Mr. Cook is fearless himself. And does not right brave
EDWARD TOOLE IS SOME SHEIK!
Edward Toole, Golden State Limited Porter is some sheikh from all appearances. Last week the writer happened to be caring his three square a night and was surprised to see the popular Rock Island porter come down to the San Diego train with three good looking heart-breakers. What's more the train did not leave until 1 A. M. and they didn't seem any too anxious to leave the clever Mr. Toole. Then one tearfully asked the writer to be sure and cover up her daddy's feet so he would be nice and warm. We are looking forward to seeing the popular shell united in weedlock in the near future, dressed to kill as follows: Bright red hat, white coat with white furs, pink dress and black coat and black hat.

A fan special from Los Angeles to Chicago to witness the great Dumpy Tumney light is scheduled to leave over the Union Pacific at an early date.

Mr. Ashley L. Totten, Assistant General Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters left the city hurriedly on Saturday 9th inst on a secret mission.
It is believed by the Brotherhood men that Totten is in Chicago with A. Philip Randolph, Genl. Organize, to give testimony against the Puliman Co. Plan, otherwise known as the Employee Representation. Plan.
He has also just returned from his tour of the West, and reports remarkable success for the Brotherhood as a result of his visit to Denver, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, Oakland, Portland, Seattle and Omaha.
North Carolinians Jest As Lynching Inquest Is Held
(By: A. N. P.)
Bally, N. C., Aug. 12.—While the coroner's jury was trying to determine who fired the shots that killed Tom Bradshaw accused of assaulting a 30 year old white girl, near here Sunday morning, those who composed the posse lented and joked with the hundreds of men, women and children who had gathered to view the gruesome spectacle.
The killing of Bradshaw by a posse of white men, brought to an end a three day man-hunt which has stirred three counties. Following the report of the assault, Bradshaw was arrested Sunday. When he was carried to the home of the victim for identification, there were rumors of staging a necktie party and "giving him what he deserved." With open threats rampant, three officers led Bradshaw from the home toward the jail. When the party had reached a short distance, the prisoner realizing his fate and knowing that the guard was insufficient to protect him, asked per-
DECKARD MACHINE
At the inquest, the conversations centered around efficiency of the hounds more than around the tragedy that had occurred. The fact that another human being had been lynched meant little $t_0$ those who felt happy over the killing of the man. And jokes were passed around freely, as the physician examined the body and expressed the opinion that the shock had caused the death, instead of the shots. The identity of the persons who fired the shots, however, could not be ascertained and the inquest will be continued.
When the report of the lynching reached the neighboring towns hundreds of white people motored to the scene of the killing and pictures were taken of the dead man. Among the crowd were scores of children, some having been brought by their parents and others by ministers of the zoologist, who were perhaps using this method of proving to the young ones the efficacy of the admonition, that "the way of the transgressor is hard." Any way they were there and doubtless when they grow up will be as efficient as their forefathers in meeting out "justice of the Southern variety" to Negroes who transgress.

I am Grateful, Friends
WISH to thank the Pulpit, the Press, and the Public for your unselfish support given me in the recent crisis through which PORO COLLEGE has passed.
No less do I wish to express my appreciation for the many messages of interest and sympathy which have come to me; for the tender spoken word; and for the prayers of the faithful that an Institution dedicated to my race might stand untouched.
And I am grateful for the unprecedented demonstration of racial solidarity presented.
Your friendly interest, loyalty, and prayers during the recent upheaval have lightened, more than any other agency could have lightened, the way to bigger endeavor.
In recognition whereof, I dedicate to my people, PORO COLLEGE, and reconsecrate it to the loving service of Negro Womanhood.

IN MEMORIUM
In 1890 there appeared on the religious horizon in this state an individual, a stranger, bearing the cross of Christianity, young and in the prime of life. Along with others he had heard the call for men, men of Christian character and believing he had answered that call. Conditions were not then as now.
To answer that call meant to suffer hardships and privations. It meant to sacrifice. He hesitated not but boldly accepted his lot as an ambassador of Christ and began what proved to be his life's work—saving souls.
One has but to glance at the minutes of the California and Colorado A. M. E. Conferences over a period of some thirty old years to see the records of his accomplishments and his achievements.
His word and his deeds are evidence that he put worth and character first and the material rewards that accrue from them second in his scheme of life.
The name of this worthy and noble character, D. R. Jones, was for years a mouthpiece in the religious realms of the different places he pastored.
No task was too great or small. His was a living example of what willpower could and did accomplish and as a result the cause of Christianity has greatly advanced and Methodism has been strengthened.
The great States of California and Nevada in which he so faithfully labored for so many years owe him a debt of gratitude and in their triumphal march over that religious highway made permanent and safe by such clergymen as D. R. Jones, John Pointer, J. R. Dorssey, Father Green, Rev. Edwards of 8th and Towne fame, to higher, better and nobler conditions in life its citizens pause to pay a silent tribute of respect, to the name of Rev. D. R. Jones, who departed this life August 17, 1926, leaving in its wake the record of a life well spent. A record that shall shine as you beacon light far out at sea, and be a monument for those who follow in its pathway: A record that shall live long after you marble wall shall have crumbled, into dust with ages and their inscriptions been forgotten.

Troops pope prevent Lynching in South Carolina
(By: A. N. P.)
Union, B. C., Aug. 10.—Governor Richards' policy of the State militia to safeguard the lives of prisoners and to keep down mob violence, again prevented by lynching, when a mob of five hundred or more whites men threatened to storm the local jail Saturday night and lynch Albert Simpson a colored youth charged with shooting a white man. The appearance of the soldiers, armed with rifles and machine guards calmed the mob which dispersed immediately
Simpson narrowly escaped being lynched in the early part of the afternoon. At this time, officers rescued him from the mob which was beat on killing him. According to reports, Simpson and a white youth by the name of Mack Austin had had trouble and a fight followed, in which Austin was shot. A crowd of irate whites gathered around Simpson and was making preparations to lynch him, when policemen rushed in and rescued him. He was
carried to the local jail. The mob, however, did not like to be deprived of their fun so easily and within an hour or 10, the forces has been strengthened and they prepared to move on the jail. Their minds were changed when they saw the soldiers on guard, and when they recalled Governor Richards' famous order—"To shoot to kill." The white youth sustained a slight flesh wound and a charge of assault with intent to kill, has been placed against Simpson. The dispatch with which the groups reached the jail and quelled the trouble, has elicited much commendation from citizens, who want to see South Carolina's slate kept clean and the law upheld. Forty-five minutes after Captain Thomas E. Jolly, commander of Company E of the 118th inantry, received the order, he had his men at the jail and ready for action. The action, however, was not necessary.

CARD OF THANKS
It is with mingled pride and pleasure that I am able to take this opportunity of expressing my most sincere thanks and appreciation to my fellow students and Angelosen for their exceptional, unselfish and highly ultratic efforts in my behalf. As a student, the aid we take in the value of incarnable values, and as a Race member this support has given me a new inspiration to strive ever in the interest of the group.
All groups without exception have rallied to the support of this drive, sponsored so successfully by one of our leading women's clubs, the Iroquois spirit which should prove to all our youth and student groups that the elders heartily endorse a program of education. I am sure that this action will prove a stimulus and inspiration to my fellow-students to carry on to greater heights in the educational field.
My heart is now and shall ever be with my friends in Los Angeles, and to be able to repay with service in some humble way, my obituation here.

IS THE AMERICAN NEGRO A MENACE?
(Continued from Page One)
this is a Caucasian country. Well here is the definition of a Caucasian: CAUCASION—Anyone of the white division or human beings, so called because the people about the Caucasian Mountains (which form division of the Russian Empire) were taken as the highest type of the human family; it includes 'nearly all Europeans, the Circassians, Jews, Armenians, Hindus and Persians.—Any native or inhabitant of the region about the Caucasus as the Georgians, Circassians, etc.
What about it? Are you still a Caucasian?
Again, dear sir, do you know that the urge fought for America's freedom from England's tyrannical reign, fought for his own freedom in the Civil rebellion, has fought in all the wars wherein America's interests were affected?
And do you know further that even though he was brought over against his will and sold into chattel slavery, serving his time of two hundred and fifty years in that, the most menacing of all debasing schools, he comes forth to the creator along all lines in his sixty-two years of freedom than any other race subjected to the same experience?
Think, brother, think! for you are undertaking the biggest problem of your life. I would suggest that you do either of two things—trust to luck or eat him. If you trust to luck you will, as was intended by the Creator, leave him to destiny; if you eat him you will have more brains in your belly than in your stomach. So again I prayerfully suggest that you think again before you act, his toll, sweat and blood, if you please. You say you are Caucasian, and that

And now, far advanced in years,
he feels that he can still 'make good',
that his straightened circumstances
are only temporary embarrassment.
For in his day this Proud Old Man
paid his tribute to life. With advance,
ing years came unforeseen difficulties
that swept away his little fortune.
Friends and family were gone too,
and he struggled along alone until the
big heart of a kindly city that understood
took him under its protection.
"Caring for the aged is no longer considered charity but the obligation of the stronger to help the weak" one of the Chest Agency explained. "They have given of their time and talents in the march of progress. Now, when misfortune overtakes them in their declining years, it is an act of brotherly love and understanding to take them on hand and feel them comforted over the rough way at the end of life."
Your dollar given to Community Chest means that much contributed to the betterment of the world and one step nearer the brotherhood of man.

Anniversary Celebration For Pastor Jacobs
the members and friends of the Birch Street Christian Church gathered in large numbers on last Friday evening to celebrate the Second Anniversary of the pastorate of their beloved Mrs. A.C. Richardson and provided a surprise program for the occasion and it was indeed a memorable occasion.
Refreshments were served at its conclusion to the heart's content and it was indeed a worthy tribute to one who in every event has been beloved and respect not only of the members of his church but by all who know him as well.
Re-Call Mass Meeting At McKinley High School
A monster crowd turned out at the McKinley High School Jr., on last Wednesday evening for the Re-Call of the mayor.
Many high powered speeches were made and unanimous vote was the result for the re-call.
Petitions were put out and a heavy free will offering was given to help out in the expense of the work of procuring signatures to the re-call petitions. The greatest of enthusiasm was manifested.
A vote of confidence was given to Councilman Jacobson and resolutions passed denouncing the apparent frame up by the Los Angeles Police.

(From the St. Louis Argus, July 29th)
The best legal chapter in the famous Sweet case was read in Detroit, Michigan, last week when all the cases growing out was the mole prosecution. It will be remembered that Dr. Ossian H.

| _ #Los"thrigéles, Aug. 12, 1927.
BB BASE,
‘Buftor ‘California ‘Eagle,
Los Angeles, Cal.
After being Confronted with the dut-
rage of the case brought agajnst some
of our Race and most ‘teapectable cit-
Jzens at Manhattan Beach, .which |
‘tink most of the people in our group
have either read,of or heard about, I
feel it my duty, being a contractor and
‘a man in business amongst the group,
to bring to tbe attention of others
who may feel as-1 do although not
hurt in the way that other mechaufes
and I, myself, feel over the sight .of
our largest ‘building contractors of-
ploying white men to do mechanical
work on buildings being built, dnauic-
éd ang owned by colored people. =~
‘Mr, W. H.. Terry is the buildije
cantractor’s “mime who 1s employ:
ing white men to do work that en
‘of our race are just as capable of do-
‘ing, {f not more so, than the white
men that are doing the work for Mr.
Terry.
Of course Mr. Terry is running his
own business and running it to sult
himself and not me or others, but |
cannot feel that he is doing justice to
the Race as he is one of the Directors
of the Unity: Findnce Company of
which Dr. Hudson is one of the vice:
residents, and t00 the doctor was ove
of the outraged’ parties of the Manhat-
tan beach affair. If he wanted to play
a Race part with Dr. Hudson and ihe
other outraged parties, the last thing
he would do would be to employ white
men to do work that can be done by
men of his own race and too’men that
could and would put money where it
would be @ benefit to-other of our
Race.
To think that a man who is in’a
business supported by colored peo:
ple and too doing work for colored
people in a colored neighborhood, us-
ing colored people's money to pay men
of a race that would not permit him
nor any other colored man oy any part
of his family to as much as enjoy
something that the Almighty Father
put here for one and all to have, ts
like taking food away from a child to
fatten'a frog for-a snake.
Now, if Mr. Terry was to be forced
to work as a journeyman and th? fath-
ers of these same white men were to
be contractors and offe, Mr. Terry a
fob, I can say without fear that the
same men that are accepting Mr. Ter-
ry's money would refuse to work with
him, but still he employs men that
have every advantage in the world
to get work and let men of his own
race Cpe arpond and suffer for the
want of work arid too men that would
and could protect him 1 the time of
need.
It-has often been remarked to me
as well as others by white people that
the Colored Bace don't stick together.
And why? Is it that Colored people
don't organize? Our group will make
a howl that we don't co-operate, Well,
I feel that when men that are in a
position to help a man that will help
others of his race, fails to do so, there
isn't much chance for unity or co-op-
eration, for it is like taking a hub out
of a wheel and expect the wheel to
turn smoothly. Now, it is bigh time
that the progressive leaders of our
group are getting out and doing a bi
of investigating and bring to the sight
of our Race such men as Messrs. Ter-
ry, Brooks, Knox and others that are
taking work from our people and giv.
ing it to people that are opposed to
even our children going to school
with their children; fo, the class o!
white mechanic that wif even figure
on a Colored man’s job is way below
the standard of a good mechanic for

$0 I feel thet ‘evéry broad-niinited,
ctean-ttittiking Colored persbn will see
as I see and, that 1s, if we have imen
in our group who are in power to help
otters of our group and turn it over to
‘white mén rather than to help mien
ot his’own ‘race ‘that have fathilies to
‘support ahd can produce Just as good
as the men of the oppdsite race, can-
not be for the race at all and should
jbe classed ds a spy during war time
for he is not only doing an injustice
to o race brother but fs hurting bis
whole ‘amily aiid other familfes and
the tnire-race, for every dolfar that is
turned away from a race man is the
same as a weapon against iim and
his race. And when any of us think
that we are gaining anything by put:
ting the white man to work because he
gives a cheaper figure, it need not be
thought that it'is better because noth-
ing good 1s cheap and anything cheap
can't be good.
Now I will for myself put up a def.
ance to any of the Building Corftract-
ors and that is, if any white pajnting
contractor cati use the same grade of
material as I use he can't do his work
any cheaper than I ofn.
1 don’t claim to be the best mechan-
fc in Los. Angeles, but I will say I am
capable of working with any of them
and have as good a crew of mechanics
asjany of the white paint contractors
that Phave seen working on any of the
colored builders’ jobs and there are
othe, colored paint contractors just
as good-as I am and will put up the
same challenge. So these builders
need not alibi by saying they can get
better work and get it cheaper for
they can only get a cheaper job, for I
will say that from my experience
through dealing and working with and
around white panters, that they know
more about cheating than the colored
painter does, for they know more
about chemicals and when you want
paint you want minerals ‘and not

Colored men can't work with white
mechanics although we have to join
She union. We ate unionized by the
white union and a clause in the By-
Laws of the union keeps thém sepa-
rated but colored buflders in Chicago
work all colored mechanics, pay better
price too allowing the sub-contractor
to pay a better wage and naturally the
people get a bette? job, for better
prices afford better material and bet-
ter mechanics and makes a better fin-
ish all the way. Our people have
often remarked here why jlo the
homes in Hollywood and Beverly Hillg
look better than ours do, and that is
simple, forthe white builder paye
from fixe hundred up for a four-tam-
ily @partment and the colored butld-
cf makes the painter ‘igure below
four. hundred ‘and twenty-five dollars
and a bundred dollars makes a lot of
difference in a job. for the painter
makes the job show up for after every
other mechanical line is completeq the
painter has to finish. -

War Declared On Lower California Land & Development Company
War Declared On Lower California Land & Development Company
As we read the news sections and the editorial columns of the daily papers, it does not take one long to see and realize that all California and especially Southern California is all agog and perturbed over the Julian Oil Corporation and its doings. Not alone are the thousands of white stock investors raising this vociferous nalloo, but even in our group where that as investors; they form an insignificant minority, we find in the homes, on the cars, on the street corners and even in the pulpits a continual "buzz" about the "Sin and Shame" of such doings. We are told that charity begins at home. In other words we would state that your appeals for your next door neighbor to keep his backyard olean would not be very effective while you kept your own untidy and messy house, and the paper the blown and strewn over his yard. We openly admit that every investor who has placed a dime in this concern has a right to kick and to kick hard. In fact any citizen who wished to criticize the procedure of the Julian Corporation has a perfect right to do so, but what the Negro has to say on this proposition is usually hearsay. Not one but of one thousand has one iota of inside information.
To Public Speakers and especially to ministers of the gospel who are conscientiously seeking to instruct and life his hearers into the virtues of race integrity, race co-operation and square dealings one with the other, we would suggest that we have a subject by far more appropriate than the Julian case.
We wish to offer to you as a subject, "The Lower California Land Company and Hugh E. Macbeth." We would like to have a more appropriate subject because in the first place, it deals with a question that involves Negroes alone with the exception of wherein Macbeth occasionally injected a cheap white man to help him fleece the Negroes.
Then too, such a speaker would be able to talk to his people on things not what he heard but what he knows. If he felt that his memory might fail him then we could furnish him with the following information from which he could write his manuscript. The speaker could first say that Hugh E. Macbeth collected between five and ten thousand dollars or more of the people's money, put it in his own personal bank and drew it out on his own personal checks and spent it. We have the cancelled checks in our possession to present them to anybody who wants to see them. Possibly when the speaker or minister had made the above statement, some good brother would rise and wish to shield Macbeth as some are trying to do today, saying Macbeth had a right to use the money in this manner. The speaker could then reply by saying, "No, macbeth had no right to use the money in this way, because the gentlemen from whom I got my data for my manuscript have a letter from the State Corporation Commission showing that Hugh E. Macbeth had written to the Commission asking that Macbeth, be granted the privilege of holding the money which the people paid him for stock. We have the letter showing that the Commission wrote back to Macbeth telling him that under no $0 consideration was he to hold in his personal account any of the funds realized from selling stock but that it must be deposited in a bank that was agreeable to both Board of Directors of the Company and the State Corporation Commissioner. Did Macbeth keep the orders of the Corporation Commissioner? No, he did not. The cancelled checks will show mission telling them that the Security Trust and Savings Bank had been selected as the depository for the money realized from the sale or stock. This eight or ten thousand dollars of cancelled checks that we hold will show that they have never been through the Security Trust & Savings Bank. In the permit that the State Corporation Granted the company to sell stock it was also plainly stated that all monies paid in for stock less 10% was to be held in escrow until the expiration of the permit and if at the time of expiration of the permit, all of the stock had not been sold, the money was to be taken from the depository and turned back to the people, who had invested.
Dil Macbeth abide by this order? No, he did not. Instead Macbeth went down into Mexico and made a "bogus" lease deal, incurred heavy debts and rode his fellow directors and the public at large for money with which to pay these supposed debts off. We are only sorry now to know that we did not have the knowledge of affairs three years ago as well as we have them now. We would have long since taught this good brother how to handle other, folk's money. Someone asked us the other day, are we tired or writing on this matter? We frankly say yes, but as long as we are right we can't be quitters. Someone has said that it looks impossible for us to get anywhere. When we hear such a remarks we receive encouragement by turning to the Biblical story of David and Goliath. Goliath was a great giant, all armed and armoured with swords, breast plates and shield. David was only a bare-footed boy with a sling and a stone. When the crucial test came between the two, history
tells the story of the victor. We may not be so accurate as David was to hit the mark, with the first stone, but we are going to continue to throw them as long as slings and rocks last. As the late comedian Bert Williams would pit it, "I shall continue to throw stones and I shall miss nobody." J. STEVENS C. TROY N. LITTLEJOHN

the children at the nursery, that it keeps her busy from morning t until night.
And that is just what the thinking people of Los Angeles have planned for little girls like Carol whose mothers have to work. It is part of the constructive program outlined through agencies of the Community Chest in view of the old adage, "Satan finds work for idle hands to do."
"Keep the children or the working mothers busy at constructive play and you will rid the city of evil," is the admonition of welfare workers.
But the good done in this field of endeavor is two-fold, for it not only trains little Carol for the future but helps a hard-working mother to keep the little home together.
"The home is the foundation of the nation" so every dollar contributed to the Chest builds for the future welfare of the nation.

AUGUST
August brings a touch of fall. The sun is perceptibly on its way south. Earlier it takes its candles through the woods and goes to bed. Evening may bring a suggestion of chill and a thought of a log fire. Queen Anne's lace and button rockets are in places with daisies and the fox grass. There'll be red haws and wild grapes to gather.
The silk of the sweet corn is brown. Red-headed woodpecker have come into the oaks, pounding and skirling. Thickets are growing yellow. Soon a dried leaf will come tumbling out of the shag bark hickory. The pips of the wild rose will turn red. The old wheel is on another turn.
UNUSUAL MAN
Objection was voiced at the N. A. A. C. P. meeting on last Sunday on the ground that it was unusual procedure for the president to seek a vote of confidence for his acts, and further that it was a slight to the Executive Board.
Those making these objections, if they would have a second thought in the premises would readily realize that their president, in the person of Dr. H. Claude Hudson is an unusual man. He has been a God's send to this community and as such has wrought wonders for the great N. A. A. C. P. To do this he has worked hand in hand with all forces which signified their intention to go forward. If one or more would hesitate the doughty president simply said, "Unhand me," broke the chain and moved forward and onward, having an abiding faith in the support and endorsement of all the people whom he sought to serve.
When he heard mumbling even from one or more of his Board members he simply paused and asked the higher power, the people themselves, what they thought about his acts. Their answer was hurled back in the echo of the echo of the question and was, "we are with you Claude Hudson. 50,000 strong."
As a matter of fact many of our embryotic and aspiring leaders have yet to learn that the highest compliment they can pay themselves is to keep their ears to the grass roots and listen to the voice of the people.
Dr. Hudson is strong, he is unusual and does the unusual thing because at all hazards he works for and obeys the voice of the people.
KEEPING PACE WITH PROGRESS
The success of co-operation as evidenced and pointed out by the accomplishment of the Golden State Insurance Company in our last issue is reflected in various lines of effort now being demonstrated in our midst.
We call attention this week first to the Conner-Johnson Undertaking Company. When one person conceived in unity there is strength and Charles H. Conner organized a company to go into this particular line of business and today this concern is very aptly demonstrating and filling its niche in the business affairs of this city. It is an institution to which all may point with pride. It is a success and was made so from the fact that co-operation was such procured and put into execution.
Secondly we have in the very same line of effort the Angelus Funeral Home, when several of our wide awake and enterprising citizens came together and co-operated in putting on foot this business concern. By co-operating they were able to save a one-man business which was tottering and about to fail. They have raised it up, bought the ground on which the business is conducted and today by co-operating have a business which is a credit indeed.
EVOLUTION OF HIKING
One of the things that takes the joy out of motoring is the hop-hiker, whose number is legion, having multiplied like the Japanese beetle in the last five years. And right now, while the vacation and touring season is in full swing, he seems unusually numerous and pestiferous.
These unmounted gentry of the open road are abroad not to walk but to ride, and a goodly proportion of them have argued themselves into the belief that they have an inalienable right to the vacant seat in the first automobile to pass. No doubt there are thoughtful, considerate and grateful gentlemen among them who realize that they are beggars for something far more costly than a crust of bread or old clothes. They are

The lot of the thumb-pointing ride-beggars who are welcome in most cars with spare seating space is made harder by those having the effrontery and impudence to insult motorists who refuse them a "life", and by murderers who rob and slay those with compassion enough to give them free transportation.
Hop-hikers having the appearance of respectability and honesty have little difficulty in "seeing America" with transportation paid by somebody else. And, judging from the number of pennant-bearers encountered on the highways on weekends during football season, college students miss no games away from home and spend no money on carfare.
Books on etiquette should be revised so as to lay down certain inviolable rules governing the granting and "accepting" of hops. Certainly it is proper for those who have their girl friend or their thoughts out for a jaunt to turn thumbs down on the thumb-pointing, foot-preserving hiker.
NO SHORT CUTS TO SUCCESS
Lillian Gish, famous screen actress, recently made the remark that it takes ten years of hard work to build up a large following and to make people demand a name or face in the films. She speaks from personal experience and from a knowledge of the experience of other screen folk.
Here is a situation not limited alone to movie stars. Doctors and lawyers frequently justify their fees by the years they spent in building up a paying practice. It is not only in fiction and the movies that young artists starve in attics.
Henry Ford struggled along for years before Dame Fortune favored him. And his experience has been that of the founders of most of the country's great industries.
Successful merchants often attribute their business achievements to early years of struggle just one jump ahead of the sheriff. Their businesses rest on solid foundations laid by years of hard work and extensive advertising. Stores and other business enterprises do not win public confidence and widespread patronage by lottery.
The larger rewards of screen stars, professional men and successful business men are vindicated by the years of self-sacrificing toil expended in winning them. Part of their income in back-pay.
Many individuals and business enterprises fail today because they are unwilling to pass through that formative period of hard knocks and hard work. The world wasn't built in a day, and great careers and monumental commercial enterprises are not produced by the wave of a wand.
DOLLARS AND TOWNS
Probably everybody at one time or another has mailed an order to an out-of-town concern, but how many have ever stopped to think what that order meant? Not many, or there would be less trading with mail order houses and other "foreign" firms.
Do you know that every dollar sent out of town is gone forever?
Do you know that every dollars spent in your own community makes it more prosperous, gives it a chance to grow, and helps make Los Angeles a better place in which to work and play and live?
Large cities offer inducements for mail order businesses to establish plants there because they concentrate, in the communities in which they operate, millions of dollars from customers in other cities, towns and rural sections.
If mail order money is needed, by the large city it can do much more good in the smaller community from which it issues. A few hundred dollars spent at home makes a larger ripple in the pool of business than as many thousands of dollars can make in the great metropolis.
Why are so many people blind to the good their money does when spent in Los Angeles stores? It furnishes employment, makes those same stores more useful to them, helps pay for civic improvements and better schools, and in other routes finds its way back to the spender.
And is not the lure of the mail catalog explained by the saying, "Distance lends enchantment"? As for mail, order economics, they exist only in the mind.

Article to the California Eagle:—
The World today is organized for work, and efficiency is the only road to a higher standard. Search and you will find that at the base and birth of every business organization is an enthusiastic man consumed with eagerness of purpose, with confidence and faith in his own endeavors.
Eighteen years ago I started out from the second laygest city in Arkansas, namely Pine Bluff. My experience has always been that the right road is the easiest traveled; a more successful life than that of the "bad man." When I have failed, it has been because of neglect and of fairness, of politeness, of industry, imperfectly, the good advice my mother gave me, which I have heard repeated from boyhood up by all good men and women. The simple truth is that all this conmotion about the wrongs of condition is a mistake; it is the people who are wrong, not the system, and the commotion simply encourages the foolish in folly.
I respect nothing so much as I respect the lessons of experience.
We are the heirs of the ages, and men in the past have tried to make life easy as possible for "some divisions." They have neglected nothing calculated to benefit the human family, and we of this Golden Age should know that the only improvement possible rests with individuals.
I have always believed in religious liberty. I believe that every Colored man to be one hundred per cent American. Urge that every application of the Constitution and amendments of of the United States be equal to all citizens, regardless of color or previous conditions. I maintain that a man's hatred of any class or group of patriotic Americans units him for public office; I believe that in our American industrial and commercial activities that the door of opportunity should be open, and promotion possible for all our citizens since all our citizens contribute to the general prosperity of the country. I contend for civic equality not social equality, which often does not exist in the same family.
I believe in the highest improvement of Americanization of our homes, our children and our communities. I crave the co-operation of every white and black man in America in these efforts to make, in fact, as well as in praise, that this land shall be for the free and the home of the brave.

It has been years since the Spanish conquest of the Incas. Most powerful; rich of the barbaric Indians of the Southern Hemisphere. His told how Francisco Pizarro captured, imprisoned and finally slew the powerful chief of the Incas, Atahualpa, and brought the Empire under Spanish subjection. Today they comprise 80 per cent of the Bolivian population. Poor, ignant, degraded, relics of a proud nation trapped under the feet of human greed. But there must be something in the blood which debasement could not conquer. A stirring, throbbing, pulsating something which dirt and squallor could not quench, nor ignorance kill. It has broken out in open rebellion against their enslavers and the white residents of the Bolivian republic are fleeing before the descendants of Alahualpa. Fleeing for their lives. Just one more surge in the "Rising Tide of Color."
About 700 Hindus gather in the Native Sons Hall Sacramento. They came from all points in California. If you remember in 1911 President Taft appointed a Commission to study race conditions. It was known as the Dillingham Commission. In the report made they recommended that Hindus be classed as members of the Agrian or white race. Senator Copeland, New York, at the last session of Congress introduced a bill which would legalize that report. The chief speaker was a Hindu from New York. He is the secretary of the India Freedom Foundation. He said, "The passage of the Copeland bill would not alter nor lift the ban on East Indian immigration passed in 1917, but would allow Hindus to own real property." Yes, if that measure becomes a law thousands of acres now under lease will be owned by Hindus. Thousands of acres will be lost to Negro farmers. We have sounded the warning.
Two italians, Sacco and Vanzetti have for the past seven years been front pagers. Today they have the government of the United States set by the ears. Extra guards for public buildings and prominent individuals, courts, jurors, and the governor, of the commonwealth of Massachusetts have found, through evidence given that they were guilty of murder. They have been sentenced to die. Then why not execute them? Something is wrong! The law is at fault or rank cowardice permeates the law's officials. The men have flung the defiance of anarchy from behind their prison bars. Does this great government tremble at the threat of anarchy?
Down in Georgia a Negro woman was taken out and flogged because, she did not keep an engagement to wash an "Ayrian" woman's clothes. In Mississippi, a Negro man was killed because he refused to work for one dollar a day wage. In Arkansas, a Negro wung to a tree, it is alleged that he "sassed" a white woman. None of the malefactors have been arrested for those crimes. If they were they would not stay in jail seven minutes, less the seven years, and had a Negro been accused of the like crime of the two Italianes they would have been executed and they and the crime forgot. Something's wrong, somewhere!
One of the most interesting and instructive studies is the history of the Boulder Dam. The bill which is sponsored by Senator Hiram W. Johnson and Congressman Swing, and known as the Johnson-Swing bill. That project is of vital interest to California. It is essential to the industrial and agricultural needs of the State as well as securing the safety from flood of the valleys. The state's interested in
the irrigation and power of the project have differ and are at variance in things but same though overcome those different amalgamation of interest contributions to give contributions to give Ridea of the great import of making the building success.
So they are at it! "Jennie" Rolph and James Powers, leading candidates for the mayoralty of the city that "Sits on Seven Hills"; "The city that is loved around the world; the city that knows how"—San Francisco, the city by the Golden Gate. The win the prize is worth the striving for. For one decade and six years Rock has steered the municipal ship. He has done well, but he has not at all times used wisdom in his treatment of the men who supported him, the more he has alienated them. There seems to be some division of opinion among the Negro voters as to the merits of the two candidates, but the astute and knowing political seer, John Taylor, has espoused the cause of former Postmaster James Powers, and John is a Race Man.

WHITE WOMAN AND NEGRO LOVER GET TWO YEARS
(Bv: A. N(P.)
Dunn, N. C., Aug. 12—Mrs. Britain West and he, Negro rover, Ica Cox, were sentenced to serve two years in confinement on a charge of immoral relations here Thursday, Mrs. West will spend her two years in the county jail, while Cox will pass the time away making better roads for the state.
Cox and Mrs West were arrested Sunday night when officers raided the home of the woman and found the couple in a bed room, disrobed. When the woman appeared on the stand she charged her former lover with having broken into her room and attacked her. She explained that she had made no outcry because Cox threatened to kill her if she did and if she did not submit to his wishes.
The bed room scene which confronted the officers and the reports which led to the raid, caused them to discredit the story and for once the old gag did not go over. The West woman's husband is an invalid and was asleep in the adjoining room, during the "attack." He would make no statement whatever in court, but indicated that he would seek divorce immediately. Cox is an athletically built attractive mulatto and his white sweetheart is a comely woman about thirty years old.
to come to Mound Bayou, which he did. After marrying Miss Mary Montgomery, the daughter of Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Booze took a prominent part in the development of Mound Bayou, and many declare that he was largely responsible for the present economic status of the town. At one time he developed a co-operative cotton growing and marketing movement, which warranted the support of the late Senator McKinley of Illinois, and which was of much benefit to the farmers of this section.
The informed further, expressed the opinion that Mr. and Mrs. Booze are the victims of a frame-up designed to reflect discredit upon Mrs. Booze as National Republican Committee-woman and are pointing to the persistent efforts made by inimical forces to embarrass Perry W. Howard, National Republican Committeeman. For this reason, the political angle has been injected into the affair.
DIED AT AGE OF 77
Mr. Montgomery died at the age of 77. He was born on Hurricane Plantation, in 1847 and served as a sort of private secretary to Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederacy. He stopped into the limelight when he purchased the strip of land, which is now Mound Bayou and developed it into one of the most progressive towns in the state.
Mound Bayon, which stands as a monument to the memory of its founder, boasts of being an ALL-NEGRO TOWN, having all Negro officials, Negro citizens and everything Negro. One unique feature of the town is that there is no jail. The town has many flourishing business enterprises and bids fair to continue its growth for years to come.
At the time of his death there was no suspicion as to his passing being due to any but natural causes. He had lived a vigorous and active life and had passed the proverbial three-score and ten years. He was wealthy and according to reports, so is his son-in-law, who is now charged with being his murderer. The trial is expected to be fraught with sensation but the friends of the family will certain that Mr. and Mrs. Boeuz will be vindicated.

‘The writer was very strong for Mc-
Vey, rating him third in the, welter

of the arucle. It describes ‘him as
hard hitting Young boxer. He is a
combination of a ‘alasger and a boxer.
He does not rush headstrong into an
opponent taking two blows to give
one, but counters beautifuly and has a
punch that will set the best of them
on the canvas.
His last important battle was a ten-
round knockout over Walcott Lang.

Church, Pico and Paloma streets, ot
jonday evening, at 8:30.

most fetching personality, but that

promise in the future should have and,
later on, must have to succeed with
the public, is still in the making. Her
artistic talent fs too great to let
pour out witflout a sweet smile and
without a neat-bow.
‘Miss Robin Stokes is young, very
bretty and, indeed, a girl that should
climb upon the ladder of fame without
any heartbreaking difioulty. Her ly
ricism is very striking in overflowing
sweetness, good enunciation and splen-
did variety. She has indeed, for s0
young a Miss of only 21 years, studied
a lot, and with 5 years of more good
studies, may become a National, if not
Interaational, figure. She has, at
‘times, a most powerful, highest soar-
ing voice, and \1s_ very ‘ impressive
when she emerges from the soft, ca-
ressing lyrical witchery into hef clar-
ion and climax sounds of heavier and
deeper tonal power.
Mise-Robin Stokes ts a most artistic-
ally thirsting and discerning. singer
with © very great repertoire of songs
that charmed the audience most hap-
pily.
‘The Negroes of Los Angeles are too
chery, like their white brethren, in
welcoming a deserving young girl of
Miss Stokes’ splendid calibre, but now,
since she has made -her debut here
with great credit to herself, she should
with- good, persistent and’ systematic
advertising be heard by at least 1,000
people or more, when she appears
again.
It youth is given its needful consid-
eration, then it can be safd that no
better singer of so tender years, has
ever appeared here to ornament and
scintMlate the Negra race.
‘Worthy to her eultire and achieve-

PYORRHEA—ITS PREVENTION

Pyorrhea is a disease which can ant

ways to do this is to stimulate and in

vigorously using the teeth in masts

thorough and (systematic massage ot
the gums with the tooth brush, The
mouth and teyth must also be’ kop
scrupulously @leanby-the regular usc
of tooth brush and dental sili.
The loss of.teeth should also be
guarded againgt. One of the most
disastrous thitigs that, can happen
from a dental dpofnt, is the loss
of a tooth, especially the first perma
nent molar. This tooth erupts at the
age of stx, and Is often allowed to de
cay beyond repair, in the belief that
it is a temporary tooth This ts o
serious mistake ,as {t puts an unequal
Pressure on the other teeth ang sc
makes them more Mable to disease. Ir
regular teeth should also be ‘straight
ened in childhood ag a preventive
measure against disease. It is easie,
to keep ‘straight teeth healthy.
As @ final precsation in prevention,
the family-dentist should be seen at
regular intervals—not less than twice
@ year, in-order that the teeth and
Suns be cérefully examined. If these
Drecautions “ate observed, _pyarrhea
can very largely be prevented.
Pyorrhea 1s also a curable disease,
though if too long’ néglected, it may
reach an incurable stage. The carlier
that treatment is the better.
This treatment copsiste of removing
the cauge . i
As a rule, treatment is not painful,
and under no circumstances, need “st

Well folks, your automobile is again allowed to park on the beach thoroughfare of Manhattan and too you are welcome to dive or swim or what not in the waters that mark its beach as of yore. And now that it's over don't pack any chips when you go.

ADMINISTRATION FAVORS CUTING IN HALF 3 PER CENT TAX ON AUTOS CUTTING OVER $1000
Exercise offices, Rapid City, S. D.
Aug. 1st. The Republican administration's stance toward the abolition of the 3 cent excise tax on automobiles is revealed here for the first time in an announcement by Senator Read, spot of Utah, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, visiting the President, that the Administration favors cutting in half the present 3 per cent tax, thus leaving a tax of 1½ per cent on passenger cars costing more on $1000.
URGES SESSION
"My purpose in stopping by to see the resident is to suggest the need of calling Congress into extraordinary session about November 1," said Senator Scot. "Failure of the deficiency appreciation, totaling $20,000,000, and the obstacle relief and tax makes us move desirable. This legislation would help Congress start working immediately after November 1."
"A halffem of the Finance Committee I favor reducing the present tax passenger automobiles by half, making the sales tax 70 per cent instead 8 per cent, at present."

DON'TS FOR BACKSEAT
DRIVERS
DON'T take your eyes on the road;
you might see some pretty scenery.
DON'T keep quiet in a traffic jam;
you might make it easier for the driver.
DON'T keep the children in the back seat with you; if they are in the front seat they will keep the driver wide awake.
DON'T hesitate to give your opinions on all subjects; what are opinions for?
DON'T neglect to criticise something! various subjects will present themselves to you.
DON'T overlook the weather; you might say something original about it.
Detroit, Aug. 17.—Three large Detroit manufacturers, whose plants are dependent on Ford business for the bulk of their production, stated today that although experimental supplies have been sent the Ford Motor Company, their plants were still awaiting a "go ahead" on regular production. An official of the Ford Motor Company, when questioned regarding this information, readily admitted that production could not start without receipt of certain quantities of these supplies.
DIFFERENT PRICE CLASS
"You fellows don't understand Mr. Ford's position on this new car," he replied.
"In the first place, you want to remember that he is going into a different price class. This is a finer car in every respect than many build today.
"Secondly, he believes that the demand for the Ford car must come from the public and not be forced down their throats. At present he has nearly perfected this new, four-cylinder, car, and is also engaged in development of a light eight-cylinder model. The eight, however, is nearly as far along in design as the four.
WILL WATCH G. M.
"Mr. Ford will build enough of these cars to get them before the public. His present intention is to build about 250 cars per day at first. As the deal, demand becomes more persistent, he plans to gradually increase production of the new car is being built. 1000 cars will be delivered. "Under no circumstances will more than 1000 cars daily be built until Mr. Ford is satisfied with the public acceptance of this model.
"I also might add that the action of the General Motors Corporation following the showing on the hr t new Ford will have a lot to do with his future plans."
Last Wednesday Edsel Ford issued a statement in which he said of the new four:
"The new Ford automobile is now an accomplished fact. The engineering problems affecting its design and equipment and affecting also its manufacture have all been solved.
"We know now exactly what this new car is. We have built a number of these cars and they have been performing even better than we looked for under a variety of conditions."
FACTORIES RE-TOOLED
"We know also what is needed as to personal and factory equipment in order to produce these new food cars in greater numbers than any manufacturer has ever attempted before. The work of re-tooling our plants throughout the country to prepare for the heaviest production schedule, we have ever, untaken, is now nearly complete. "Some of the things we have discovered already in the tests of this car are as follows:
65 MILE SPEED
"We have accomplished with them
the most thorough work which
is already higher than we have
potted.
gad and more feasible than we have hoped for in the early stages of designating.
"When this car is normally introduced within the past few weeks, we shall be able to say that it is the best and most modern pressed automobile we know how to build."
Douse Lights When Using Self Starter
It saves the battery to switch of the lights when using the self-starter at night. Throw out the clutch to save the starter the trouble or cranking over the transmission gear, and pull the choker out before touching the starter button so as to make every moment of the starter's work count. The juice saved in the ordinary start may be a, thousand times more valuable should the engine stall when the car is in a precarious position.
Don't Bother Him!
BY: OSCAR H. FERNBACH
As in the car we bowl along May ever Fate preserve us From bursting into shout or song That makes the driver nervous! Who's at the wheel, must be intent, In "safety first" his game lies, And often, when there's an accident, With us, not him, the blame lies.
Do not the causerie, disconcert
By claiming his attention—
Or else your form may grace, inert,
A coroner's convention;
And lest your bright career be curbed
To subterranean sleeping
Let driver's eye stay undisturbed,
On road and traffic keeping!
HEAVY GAIN IN
AUTO EXPORTS
Automotive exports show a gain over other exports for the first three months of the year according to the National Automobile Club.
During the first quarter, all commodities exported $1,200,916,000, or an increase of 7 per cent over last year. In this period, automobiles, parts and accessories increased 12 per cent and shipments of buses and trucks increased $3 per cent over last year.
Portland Tourists Meet With Accident
Miss Kate Lewis, her mother, Mrs. Julia Fuller and Mr. Abe Corneal, recent visitors in our city where they spent much time met with a serious accident just out of Stockton while returning to their home in Portland. Mrs. Fuller and her brother, Mr. Corneal were so seriously and painfully injured that they were forced to spend some time in a hospital at Stockton. Miss Lewis escaped injury though severely shaken up but was able to resume her homeward trip.
ELCAR MAKING
A BIG HIT
The Elcar under the colors of H.
G. Pandell, Inc., is making a big hit
in Los Angeles. The new models,
built in three sizes, with its many
superb color schemes, and a motor
that is the last word in design are
creating much excitement and tur-
row, says Mr. H. G. Pandell of the
Sales Department.
"The Elcar needs no introduction
to the motor world." Its designers and
builders have never had any apology
to offer. The car is built to meet
present day demands and that means
much in face of present day competi-
tion.
