L. A. MINISTER SENT TO GENERAL M. E. CONFERENCE
REV. A. P. SHAW ELECTED DELEGATE TO GENERAL CONFERENCE
The second time in the history of the great Methodist Episcopal Church a colored man has been elected delegate to the General Conference. In 1920 Dr. W. H. Brooks, pastor of historic St. Marks of New York was elected from the New York Conference to represent at the General Conference and now a few days ago while in Annual Session at Long Beach, the California Conference with but four members of the race present elected the Rev. A. P. Shaw fourth on the list of delegates on the third ballot cast. On the first ballot cast Rev. Shaw received 85 votes on the second 126 votes and on the third was elected, having received 146 votes, 2] more than was necessary for his election. Not only the members of Wesley Chap. I. M. E. Church of which Rev. Shaw is the popular pastor are proud of this signal honor conferred upon one member of the race likewise the people of this community. It was Rev. Beane, pastor of Hamilton M. E. Church and one of the other delegates present at the Conference who rushed into this sanctum santorum a few days ago; brim full of joy not unlike a school boy who had aided in putting over, a great athletic feat; and broke the news to us concerning Rev. Shaw's election. So happy was he that his joy was contagious. We mused and said that if the doctrine of the M. E. Church stimulates this sort of feling and relationship among its ministers and flock, then let us have an even greater M. E. Church in this section and state.
Rev. Shaw is a Harvard man, a preacher, lecturer and keen student of economics. His contact in the great Methodist Episcopal of which he is an able part has broadened his scope, and lengthened his vision.
At the Long Beach Conference over which the very eminent Bishop Francis McConnell presided both Rev. Shaw and Rev Eane were treated as men in the General Conference where Rev Shaw will recessent we are quite sure the race in its entirety will be benefited.
HUGE MASS MEETING
LINCOLN THEATRE PACKED TO HEAR RANDOLPH
The biggest meeting ever held on the East Side of Los Angeles was staged Sunday, October 2nd, at 2:30 P.M. The occasion was an address delivered by A. Philip Randolph, General Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. The significant thing about this meeting was the fact that more than two thousand poured into this building on a beautiful Sunday afternoon with the inviting, luring sunshine and open road beckoning outside, to hear an address upon an economic subject. It means that the colored people are becoming interested in the things which count—their bread and butter.
Monday, October 3rd, 9 A. M., Mr. Randolph addressed the students of the University of California upon the subject: "The Significance of the Black Worker." He was given a cordial reception and a tremendous ovation at the close of his address. Much interest was obtained by the students and many questions were asked concerning the various phases of the Negro Labor Movement. Mr. Randolph was cheered several minutes at the close of his speech.
Escapes Injury
Dolores Bell, infant daughter or Dr. and Mrs. Hugh A. Bell of 849. So. Central Ave., is the luckiest baby in Los Angeles. One day last week, while playing on the stairway adjacent to her father's dental parlor, she lost her balance and taxied down the stairway. Dr. and Mrs. Bell were terror strick en and rushed the little girl to the hospital where she was thoroughly examined and pronounced free from injury on account of the fall.
Hotel Proprietress Shoots Bell Hop
(By A. N. P.)
Chicago, Sept. 29—Mrs. Louvenia Thomas, owner and manager of the Alpha Hotel, was "booked" on a charge of assault with intent to murder at the Pekin Police Court, Saturday morning when she was arraigned for shooting and seriously wounding Lewis Guyot, 19, bell bcp at her hotel. The shooting occurred at the Alpha Hotel, one of Chicago's most fashionable hostelries, Friday at 5 P. M. Young Guyot told police officers that Mrs. Thomas was in love with him and shot him in a jealous rage when she learned that he had purchased a beautiful shawl for a "younger and more beautiful woman." When Mrs. Thomas was approached concerning the charge, she denied that there was any love affair between her and the youth and after stating that the shooting was an accident referred the reporter to her attorney, S. A. T. C. Watkins, who could not be reached. She explained that her attorney had instructed her to do no talking whatever as she would not know what to say, any way. Guyot was rushed to Provident Hospital, where he was given first aid and then was carried to the Bridewell Hospital where his condition was pronounced serious. The bullet passed through the left side of his abdomen, inflicting a very painful and serious wound.
Give Credit To Whom Credit Is Due
Dear Editor:
In accordance with your policy of giving everyone equal opportunity of expression, I desire at this time, just a little space in your splendid organ, for the outburst of an emotion.
I sat last Sunday and listened to an inspiring speech by A. Philip Randolph of New York, who is champion of the Pullman Porters' cause.
M. B.
Mr. Randolph's words were inspiring; he spoke of our high-powered men in business—what he said was true in a general way but as far as the Heffin Mfg. Co. is concerned he failed to secure facts before speaking. If this company had within its fold some of the high-powered business men described by Mr. Randolph there would be no doubt about its going on to business perfection.
Yes, I took exception to the young New Yorker's remarks because he failed to mention Mr. Spaulding who is solely responsible for the magnificent building that is to be the future home of the company. I care little about the $4,000 that have gone into this concern through my activities, save the $1,000 of that sum which I induced my nephew, W. C. Jones of Minnesota to put in; and then too, Mr. Randolph was not aware of the fact that $10,000 was deposited before even this building was started.

Changes Agitate Chicago Methodist Conf.
Evanston, Ill., Sept. 20.—According to old timers more ministers were shifted at the meeting of the Chicago District A. M. E. Conference, which was held here during the past week, than at any previous conference. Dissatisfaction over some of the appointments was expressed by ministers and congregations where strong connectional men had been uprooted.
Bethel Church of Chicago and Ebenezer of Evanston were the only major appointments unchanged. Drs. Tooks and Fountain were returned to these charges. Dr. R. E. Wilson, pastor or the St. Mary's Church of Chicago was made a presiding elder and Rev. Robert Thomas, formerly of Grant Chapel, was appointed to succeed him at the Chicago charge. Other appointments which aroused the brethren were Rev. C. A. Fisher, transferred from Chicago to Milwaukee; Dr. H. E. Stewart to Quinn Chapel, Chicago and Dr. C. M. Taner's transfer to Michigan conference and to Bethel Church of Detroit.
"For the good of the church" was the reason advanced by some, but onlookers thought they saw an effort to break up the political lineup which existed here and which had been expected to fight for the placement of another bishop. Bishop Gaines, the presiding prelate, however, pointed out that in Chicago there were eight major charges. At one of the churches the time limit had been reached and at four others changes were made, because the congregations demanded changes. Finding men to fill five charges the Bishop explained required considerable adjustment. If threats mean anything, many ministers will refuse to go to their new fields and many congregations will use the lock-out method to show their disapproval of the action of the conference.
The conference opened Wednesday morning and from then to the closing Sunday night there was something of importance going on. The conference was welcomed to the city and state by Vice-President of the United States; Charles Dawes, who urged the church to take a more active part in civic and spiritual development.
The reports rendered by delegates showed that the work of the A. M. E. Church in this district was going and resolutions were adopted endorsing Rev. H. E. Stewart for the Bishopric as well as Dr. D. M. Baxter and Dr. M. H. Davis. Delegates elected to the forthcoming General Conference were Drs. H. Y. Tooks, J. N. Goddard, H. E. Stewart, Eugene Bosse, J. D. Cotton, S. L. Birt, W. Fountain, I. N. Daniels, and M. C. Fountain. Right for the return of Bishop Gaines to the fourth district. Among the Bishops present were the Right Rev. S. J. Johnson, J. Albert Johnson and Reverdy C. Ransom and general officers R. Hawkins, Ira T. Bryant, E. H. Colt; D. M. Baxter, Julian C. Calwell, J. G. Robinson, R. H. Wright and J. D. Barkudale.
AT SEA!

Atlantic Ocean, Sept. 16, 1927.
On Board Steamer Celtic
Dear Mrs. Bass:
I am trying to fulfill my promise to
tell our friends something of our trip
and am writing the first instalment
aboard ship.
THE
This is the seventh day at sea. Very pleasant weather with the exception of one day. Mrs. Webb and I are both good sailors. We embarked at New York City, Friday, the 8th, with nearly 1000 passengers. This ship is 700 feet long with five decks. The Legionaires aboard are from Iowa, Ohio, Kansas (Mr. Bass's state). The Kansas delegation is singing their songs all wearing Sunflowers. I had to leave the lounge and come up to the drawing room to write. Connecticut has quite a few on board, there is also a nice number of our people aboard—Col and Mrs. Ward, head of the government hospital, Tuskegee; Mr. and Mrs. John Smith of Washington, D. C., friends of Mrs. Maher, Mrs. Macbeth's mother; Dr. and Mrs. Johnson and Dr. King of Tuskegee; Capt. Ferguson of Charleston, South Carolina, delegate at large, elected over five white men, hotel keeper; Chelota Collins-Lacy, Soprano from Columbus, Ohio, who took the passengers by storm last night at the Concert given by the different states. Everyone was delighted with her work. Iowa has a splendid band on board. California delegates left a day before us; we only W. C. A., where we stopped while in W. New York. Elizabeth Moore Armstrong had just landed from France and came right over with messages from Florence who is awaiting our arrival at Paris. Ralph Chub we saw at Detroit and New York, he was baked by Rev. Brady, Sunday a week ago. Ralph was not so well impressed with New York, too much night life. Mabel White, sister to Norman White and Mrs. Brady, sister to Mrs. Wyndon called and friends of Mrs. Webb took her to Yonkers; I did not go. We spent a day and night at Atlantic City with Mr. and Mrs. John Abury. Or course, you all have heard of that famous Board Walk, well, Mrs Webb walked half of that 12 miles one evening and went back the next day and finished it. I walked one hour then balked. I sat down for over an hour while she walked and like to have froze waiting for them to return; it surely surprised me to know Los Angeles has a champion walker in the person of Mrs. Marlette Webb; she has enjoyed every moment.
Mrs. Weeb proved to be a girl friend of my brother, Rey. Arthur D. Chandled, while he was in college at Boston. I enjoyed listening to them talk of bye gone days. We met Mrs. Emmia Topp at a dinner party at Detroit, she returns soon to Los Angeles. Met Mr. and Mrs. Noah Thompson in New York, she is very happy to be there and keeps up her writing. Mr. Thompson is on the Opportunity Magazine; took me to visit the Amsterdam News, they had me sit for a photo for their paper (last week's issue). Elizabeth Armstrong and friend, Miss Harris, flew from London by air plane, a pleas-

A. M. E. CONFERENCE COMES TO CLOSE
DR. W. D. MILLER RETURNED TO 8TH & TOWNE:
REV. J. H. WILSON HEADS DELEGATION TO GENERAL CONFERENCE
The Annual Conference for the year of 1927 of the A. M. E. Church for Southern California closed a remarkable session when the appointments were made by Bishop H. B. Parks on last Sunday evening.
A record crowd jammed every inch of space of Historic 8th and Towne Ave., on last Sunday morning and evening. The Bishon preached at the morning service and his fame is such that wherever he is scheduled to preach the people turned out in great numbers. In the evening the great interest is in the appointments for the various locations and this is responsible for the overflow meeting.
Eighth and Towne was happy indeed for the return of the erudite and forceful Dr. Miller who proved a record breaker for all departments of church work, in fact his report places Los Angeles third on the list of all churches of the denomination in the United States, New York and Chicago occupying first and second positions in their Conference report.
Aside from this Dr. Miller was elected one of the delegates from this Conference to the General Conference to be held in Chicago in May of next year. Rev. J. H. Wilson, Presiding Elder of this District was elected to head the said delegation.
ant experience, they were so tired they slept part the way. Well, we land Sunday at Cherbong, France. Sunday will reach Paris in the afternoon. Convention opens Sunday. Big Legion parade Monday. There is a lovely ship. Our two days the briny deep is enough for me. Well you my impressions of Paris (Mr. Paree). You'd be amused to hear these Americans trying to talk French; there are two of our group that speak French fluently—Dr. King or Tuskegee and a Mr. Moore of Washington, D. C. Sorry to hear of the passing of Brother Roberts and Mrs. Campbell; the loved ones have our sympathy. Sincerely.

"A MAN OF JOYS"
"The man of joys and acquainted with laughter." It was a conscientious objector, new principal of an Oxford college, who while in prison during the war, wrote on this theme a beautiful study of the Master as the bringer of light and happiness to human experience. The description comes back to my thought as one that there is no irreverence in using with regard to another man who recently passed on.
Dr. James E. Kwegyir Aggrey, the really great African and vice-principal of the Prince of Wales College, the wonderful educational experiment of the Gold Coast Government at Achimota, was the most radiant Christian I have ever met. Humor and patience are characteristics of the Negro race, but there was a something added to those qualities in Kwegyir Aggrey, the pure-blooded Fanti, born at Anamakun on the Gold Coast fifty-one years ago, which made him tower above his fellows, black and white.
He was a champion of mankind, a believer in humanity, of whatever color. "If a man scowls at me, I just smile lack" he told me, "he cannot go on scowling long if you do this. This, I believe, is what Jesus meant when he told us to turn the other cheek."
It was not always easy for Aggrey to smile. He knew what it was to meet with insult and with race prejudice. I London reporter in my presence, when he visited me only a few weeks ago could feel him wince at a remark of a during a short stay in England on his way home from West Africa to visit his wife and children at Salisbury, N. C. He did not retaliate, however, but tried to reach to the better man within his visitor. To retaliate would have been, he believed, to betray his own race. It would also have destroyed his chances of winning his opponent by the divine method of love. I love to be called Africa's Apostle of laughter, and once after he had seen this description used of him. The laughter was an essential part of him, not a pose. As his friend, the Rev. Alec Fraser, principal of Achimura College, whom Aggrey persuaded to accept the position, and who only the post on the condition that he had Aggrey for his lieutenant, has written to me:
The humor with which he took rebuffs was quite deliberate, and meant great self-mastery. But the mastery was so complete that it appeared easy not only to others but to himself. Once, for instance, when he was traveling, the only African on board a steamer, he was set at a table by himself, and no other sat with him. An intensely social man, he was cut off from other passengers for pacing himself, however, some got to talk with him, and one asked him if he did not resent having to take his men to solitary state. "No," he said, that's where I taugh. You people have one steward to every side while I have one all to myself." This was typical of Agney. He refused to take offense and he won men over.
His principle goes on, "He was a delightful man to live with, full of humor, never taking offense, always looking on the bright side of things. He was devoted to his people and country and was unsparing of himself. Men sometimes said he was conceived" (he had a true pride in his ancient races in West Africa and could trace back his ancestry through his ancestors, although his mother he could claim five West Africans (Continued in next issue).

Holds Audience Spellbound with His
Fluent Tongue
This is a great week for labor and its exponents. 400 delegates from all part of the world, representing over 5,000,000 organized workers, take their seats in the forty-seventh Annual Convention of The American Federation of Labor. Celebrities and dignitaries bow in great respect to the progress of the labor movement, their last decade for humanity and mankind: even Governor Young of the State of California, greets the various delegates with the glad and welcome fidings that during his brief tenure of office, no less than 25 labor laws have been passed in the State Legislature. Surely this is good news for the delisheries of the sons of toll, to those who earn their bread by the sweat of their brow. Our esteemed Governor of California is quoted as saying in his address as follows: "I am for Labor and I am not against Capital; both Labor and Capital have the right to organize as long as they do not allow the value of the Dollar to transcend the value of Human life; those, coming from a great man, one whose earnest desire is the welfare of humanity.
But during this busy convention of Labor and uplift of mankind, a Son of Ethiopia has quietly entered the city of Addis Ababa, where he is him; no Senators or Governors to shake* his hands. 'He comes fearlessly and bravely with a message to his people, a message of economic Mr.-MR. A. PHILIP RANDOLPH
What a striking, figure he was, as he walked to and fro across the newly finished stage of the Lincoln Theatre, delivering his address to an eager audience of 5000 Black Americans. For one hour and forty minutes he talked with the eloquence of language and speech, as has never been heard before, one in such places as the United States, one in White House. His message was ? no set group, but to his Race. He pleased that they's sport him in his battle for economic freedom for his people; that they lend both moral and financial support, in order that he might lead them from the status of an oppressed race to the level of his more favored Nordic brother, to a higher end of living and existence, and we alone must him as he alone will do it. We must strive for more POWER, for in Unity there is Strength; divided we stand alone." He pointed out the fact clearly that Lincoln would have never freed the slaves if he could have saved the Union otherwise. To save the Union was his most treasured hope, and to hold that in unity there is a spoke of the world's war being started in quest of POWER. Economic freedom must be obtained through higher wages. Higher wages can be obtained by organization. Why organization? Because, organization gives POWER. This was a part of the message which this most nobles, brave and loyal of the Eagle, coming like a bolt out of the sky, lazily, faultlessly and honestly to his audience of 5000 Black Americans last Sunday at the new Lincoln Theatre.
As he finished his masterful oration Dad Day, representing of the American Federation of Labor grabbed his hand and shook it warmly, as did other prominent white and black guests on the platform. He was given a hearty welcome by Dr. Wittkart, noted writer and speaker, who also made a brief address! Dr. H. C. Hudson, president of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. School, Clairey Building Loan Association; Clairey Johnson, Secy. of Local No. 582, dining employees union; Mrs. Hill, the very brilliant president of the West Side Property Owners Improvement Association and the Rev. L. G. Robinson.
The program opened with an invocation by Rev. L. G. Robinson which was followed by a vocal solo; Carpenter, anappy manager of the New Lincoln made a brief talk on the future policies of the playhouse, stating that it was to be operated from the front and back by Black Americans, and clean playhouse entertainment only would be entertained. This was indeed good news to all a healthy patronage of the race is assured.
For many years Loe Angeles Black American have awaited the day when they could have a clean place of amusement to while away their leisure time at fast our day has come. Let us make the best of it, start it clean and keep it clean. Doc Straine, the leading comedian of the new Lincoln gave a minutes of Eastern gossip, mingled with California salutation, which California Here I Come. The writer has always thought the grooming should have been changed in this song to California Here I Stay.

What was expressed as one of the gala affairs of the year was a bazaquet given at the Christian Tavern by the Ladies Auxiliary of the Pulman Porters Benevolent Association, last Friday evening at 8: P. M. Covers were laid for 75 people, music was rendered by a very capable orchestra, which made dancing a pleasure. No one was allowed to sit in the Fletcher, Mrs. Bell, Mrs. C. H. Washington and Mrs. C. E. Hill were on the entertainment committee. A wonderful program was a feature of the evening: Mrs. Scott or Boston rendered a selection from Dunbar; Mrs. Sorrel read a paper, while a very fine instrumental solo was given by Mrs. Hubert. During the absence of the President, Mrs. E. Jasper, Mrs. C. made the open address, marks much to the good which brought forth much applauses. A large attendance was on hand, many of the elite of Los Angeles being present.
Only the wealthy can afford to go duck hunting and play golf these days, even if some of the duck hunters do not know the difference between a duck and a mud hen. Two of our prominent Lark porters, one a sheik and the other a hard-boiled duck hunter, the other a lake-booted duck hunter, take out so many of them, so they did not wander in the hard-boiled gent's—Mr. M. E. Jackson—diver. The shank, Mr. C. H. Levy was a tanderfoot at duck hunting, having spent his childhood day in hunting chickens, but he had plenty of nerve. With about a hundred rounds of ammunition they laid somewhere in the vicinity of Big Bear Lake. Mr. Jackson heaped right out like the seasoned hunter he is and got the lift. The sheik got separated from camp with a limit also. What's A limit of Duckt? Not stupid, a limit of MUD HENS.

UNION PACIFIC GOSSIP
By: J. R.
A washout between Moapa and Crest Lake caused trains 7 and 8, and 28 to detour over the Southern Pacific via Sacramento, Calif. Experiences of a thrilling nature were reported by buffet porter Lacy and many others. Diners arriving into the compelled to leave out the same afternoon which of course caused them to "sing 'em."
Here and There
Dean King Chef Cook on the Rock island proved a hero in a recent wreck near St. Louis, Mo., by organizing a relief crew to rescue the injured. It is hoped that this member of our group will be awarded for displaying nerve in a disaster of this kind. Diners of the very latest type have arrived in Los Angeles, cars of the 390 type are to be replaced with this type. Diner No. 304 which has had a record of having gone for six months without having caught an Inspector had the misfortune to catch three of them in one trip. Clifton Johnson (who is about as hard to keep up with as styles are) is on diner 4017.
Odell Duncan has returned to work after recovering from an injury received some wet weks ago. Diner 377 was assigned to the Marine Special from Salt Lake City to San Pedro. (We know prospects were good for a meeting as Whittaker was a member of the crew.) Wm. Robbins is doing Red Cap duty at the U. P. station.
Baker Heater Report
Remorse that no one but "The Baker Heater Committee" knows the origin, reports that Omaha will again operate trains. Nos. 7 and 8, 27 and 28 out of the Omaha Commissary office, will present operation of these trains is expected but for anything authentic we are unable to say.
Chicago After Dark
Maid B. E. Marshall of the Chicago District filled the unfinished trip of Maid Minnie Blakemore who was released at North Platte to catch Train No. 27. Diner 302 was put in. Special Train conveying delegates to American Federal Labor convention in San Francisco.
Owing to the inclement weather that prevails at the present time, waiters that have participated in out-door sports are compelled to indulge in indulgence, and doubt will have to put out the "All Rooms Taken" sign.

That: Traveling Chef Prince remained in Chicago to see the Dempsey Tunnel fight and his penalty for dozing. That: seeks on the K-12 division. That: Traveling Chef Prince in Wyoming has caused much regret with some of the gang as it was not expected so soon. But if you think it is a joke, keep thinking, but when you reach Canal and Madison it will be "real."
That: Maid Minden Blakemore had to get off at North Platte in the rain to catch 27.
That: A Union Pacific waiter by the name of Dempsey wants to change his name to Johnson or anything since the fight.

IN THE HOTEL
Los Angeles Biltmore
EN MILLION DOLLARS was the cost of building, furnishing
and equipping the Los Angeles Biltmore Hotel, at Fifth
and Olive Sereets. It is an outstanding representative of that
national group of hotels which has made the name “Biltmore”
a by-word for the finest in hotel construction, service and
ialusgerien
‘Los Angeles Biltmore is 2 small city in itself, with irs 1200
employees and 1000 rooms. It entertains from 6000 to 10,000
guests per month.
So great has been its success in serving its patrons that it is
now increasing its capacity by: 50%, and the investment in ic
by nearly $4,600,000, through the construction of an addition
containing 500 rooms, and what will be the largest hotel ball-
room in the world.
‘The amount of electrical equipment used by Los Angeles

Obstacles to Employ-
ment of Labor and
Capital
BY: FREDERICK W., WELLS
Agriculture is the primary Incustry
and the most important of all indus-
tries. About one-third of all the la-
borers in the United States are engas-
ed in producing wealth directly from
the soil. It is the ‘@ccupation in which
the workman most easily learns to do
the work requfred of him and to which
any laborer, whether skilled or other-
wise, ican quickly adapt himself, Un-
der favorable conditions, it 1s attrac:
tive to the man with small means or
large means to the inexpertenced as
well as the experienced, and to the is-
norant as Well as’the intelligent.
‘The wages of the agricultural la-
borers furnish the standard guages to
a large extent, the wages of all le
borers. It wages on a farm are high,
wages in other Hnes of employment
will be high also, since a demand for
agricultural labor at high wages will
retain labor upon the farms and eyen
attract gt from cities and towns and
thus e the demand for labor in
other @@ricuitaral pursuits.
In the settlement of new
farmers come first and after thei Pt-
low mechanics and merchants, Farm:
ers and miners must first be employed,
in the production of the raw materials
before those who work in stores, tac:
tories and banks can Rave -employ-
ment. The business of the world with
all its ramifications and subdivided

In the suburbs of every city is to

In the developmént of human s0-
clety it appears that all groups or
races pass through certain definite per-
lads, that may be designated as stages
of developmént. The more a gtoup is
exposed to organized society, the!
quicker it reaches and passes through
the “retardation or — handicapped
stage” of its development. The great-
est progress is made by a group or
race when it reaches the “principle
and policy stages” of evolution. Per-
haps the greatest handicap {s en-
countered in passing through, the per:
sonality stage. The brethren ate stil!
groping in the latter stage. As a con-
nection with the promotion, develop-
ment, support and carrying forward
of any project is determined by the
principles upon which it is establish-
ed or the polley of Its unfolding.
‘The average member of our group
fs interésted in who ts going to be
chairman. Of course the possibility
of any movement is largely determin-
ed by the vision, ability, and engineer-
ing qualifications of the eponsor. The
inquiry as to who is chairman is rot
calculated to reveal or ascertain the
degree to which the leader of the
movement possesses the qualifications
referred to above. On the contrary it
|is to determine whether it is a per-
sonal friend of the inquirer. Upon
tis fact and this alone determine tie
sapport that h2 ig to give or the oP:
position @ will stimulate. The mer.
its of the project, the number of peo
plo to be served; the number of lives
saved, the amount of crime discour
aged or the degree to which the com:
munity is to be made more prosper
ous by adding to the ‘sum total o!
wealth arid soctal well being are sec
ondary considerations.

Urban League Reports On Industry for July and August
GENERAL CONDITIONS
July and August, were typical of the usual midsummer slackening in industry. These months are chosen for inventories, repairs, alterations and the like necessitating the release of many workers for a short time. An unusually large number of plants throughout the country is still working on part time schedules. Road construction afforded employment to a large number or unskilled workers. What might have been a critical situation in Pittsburgh was aided by the coal mine strike which has provided employment for steel workers freed from their customary labors because of reduced forces and short schedules of the mills. Buffalo, Cleveland, Toledo and other parts of Ohio cut schedules and reduced forces causing more shifting from city to city than is usual even during July and August. From Akron and Minneapolis bulletins were circulated informing prospective newcomers of the scarcity of work and advising postponement of their visit until employment conditions became brighter. So great has unemployment in Fort Wayne affected the permanency of the Negro population that the city's only color dentist is moving to another section.
GAINS
Nevertheless some marked improvements were reported for July and August. In Cape Girardeau, Mo., work was begun on the $1,500,000 traffic bridge with twenty experienced Negroes as sand hoggers. In Philadelphia the subway which is now under construction is employing a large number of Negroes, some of these are being placed as foremen. In San Antonio several new hotels are employing colored waiters and some cafes have dismissed their white waiters and are employing colored. In Pine Bluff there is a heavy demand for unskilled labor in auto body plants. A night force has been established and an addition to the plant is being built. In the saw mills and on the street car tracks Negroes are finding employment in Hot Springs. There has been a slight gain in the brick mason, plumbing and plastering trades in Winston-Salem and Negroes are being throughout the city. The West Hotel of Minneapolis has employed a colored chef and kitchen crew. This is doubtless due to the fire record of tea years of service made by the head years of service made by the head colored elevator girls. Another hotel in Baltimore in the colored neighborhoods are now employing Negro clerks. At least four have begun work already. Another chain store corporation followed the A. & P. in the use of colored help. A white firm In the life of Los Angeles

Go to the Opera in a Yellow Cab
It is part of "going to the Opera" to go in a Cab. No diving. No parking. No walking for blocks through crowds.
Women appreciate the Cab. Keeps gowns and slippers clean.
Telephone Dunkirk 50-50. The cab comes at the time you say. It is driven by a competent, uniformed chauffeur. You ride privately, comfortably.
Call for friends on the way. No extra charge. From one to five persons ride in a Yellow Cab for one fare.
Yellow Cab Co. Dunkirk 50-50
in Baltimore has employed a Negro boy as assistant to chemist. A few Negroes were added to the police force in Detroit. A prominent hotel in Boston is now employing colored help. One factory in Brooklyn has recently employed eight Negroes, and an automobile paint shop employed its first colored painter. In Portland a young woman has been placed as an attendant in the Physio Therapy Department of the State Industrial Commission. Two large plants have recently opened up in Milwaukee with a Negro an foreman and two as straw bosses. Negro union building tradesmen are working on Bamberger's store in Newark, a ten million dollar structuco which will require two years for completion. Newark also witnessed the placement of twenty girls in a dress factory, the first to be employed as pressers in that shop.
In Portland six regular and two extra waitresses were discharged from a popular cafe because the manager was promised increased patronage if white waitresses were substituted. The colored girls were given written references stating that they were not being replaced because of inefficiency as their work was most satisfactory. Then Pennsylvania Railroad has laid off two hundred or more Negroes in Columbus. Negroes are suffering lay-offs from the mills in Pittsburgh. Most of the mills in that district are running half time to four or five days a week. Considerable loss was experienced in Baltimore due to a strike on the army lines. The Negroes and Rolling Mills in Fort Wayne are still working three to four days a week. In Buffalo all industries are running less than 50% capacity. There has been some loss among the factory workers in Winston-Salem.
ORGANIZED LABOR
In Pittsburgh there is a noticeable change in the relation of Negroes to organized labor. Former union men who work as strikers declare that their reason for so doing is that on the whole there is as much discrimination against the Negro within the union as there is without.

My Hair was Restored in One Year
DIE WITH YOUR BACK TO THE WALL
BY: DRUSILLA DUNJEE HOUSTON
(For the Associated Negro Press)
Walking along with a thoughtless
whirl!
A BLACK youth jostled a young
WHITE girl.
He did not stop to look in her face;
But as though Guilty ran from the
place.
They chased him, lynched him,
because he RAN;
If you have to die, DIE LIKE A MAN.
Thus he proved his manhood, thus he won.
FACE misunderstanding; DO NOT RUN.
In East St. Louis, some Negroes stood
And saw the mob kill men who were
good;
Bruce looked the courage to face a
But who lacked the courage to face a gun.
The mob strikes the COWARD who will run.
Black men if you ever hear their call STAND and DIE with your back to the wall.
God's own Son in far Judean day
Felt the hate and insult in our way.
Remember his patience. Our safe guard
Lies in TRUE MANHOOD. Though it is hard
BEAR, as he bore; but always, my son.
Look wrong in the face and NEVER RUN.

Blythe News
Sunday was a very busy day in the city. The morning services of the A. M. E. Zion and St. Paul Baptist Churches were well attended. The Zion Church in the midst of a Revival meeting being conducted by Rev. W. B. Redden, pastor, and Sister Gussie Beufort, Evangelist, sometimes called Oklahoma's praying angel, had three services and enjoyed God's blessing. Rev. Redden does not usually rush collections but due to the fact that his Annual Conference convenes the 12th of October, he has chosen for his text the entire week: "Dollar Money." The many friends who wish to get rid of him can easily do so by giving him a few dollars, he says.
Rev. Haywood is in the midst of a campaign to raise eight hundred dollars. His church is divided into seven clubs and each club must show up something. Brother Adams has named his club the "Winier" and not a single soul shall escape his all-grappling hand. The 4th Sunday will tell the story. We regret very much to report that Lillie Mae Cousar is yet sick and in eminent danger. Her case seems to be hard for the physicians to solve and hope is slim for her recovery.
Mr. George Murray, proprietor of the "Sun Kist Garage," one of the largest in Blythe, reports that his wife who underwent a major operation in San Diego recently is not yet out of danger.
Duck season has opened and the poor ducks are being scared to "Old Mexico," white salmon is the menu at many a home since the Colorado made a rise. With so many cotton pickers in the Valley the rabbits know to keep under cover, but the rattlesnakes defy invasion of their desert claim and still have an unbroken front.

SACRAMENTO'S·PRO GRESSIVE CITIZENS
On our recent visit to the State's Capitol, Sacramento, we had the pleasure of visiting the newly built palatial home of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Scott, 414 Twenty-second St., of that city. The home is one of the most unique and beautiful from an architectural point of view that it is possible to make it, built of decorated brick and modern in design it stands out as the genius of real home builders. Mr. and Mrs. Scott are among the progressive and highly respected citizens who are pioneers in that section. Eagle readers will remember Mrs. Scott as the former versatile correspondent who wrote the Sacramento news.
Further on we dropped in to see Dr. W. M. Richardson, who formerly practiced his profession in this city. His many friends will be pleased to know that the doctor has built up a lucrative practice in Sacramento and has a modern and well equipped office; where he waits upon the populace and rates high up as one of the capitol city's leading physician and surgeons.
EX-SERVICE MEN TO RECEIVE 6,250 ACRES
Los Angeles, Calif., Sept. 30.—Western ex-service men, both white and colored, are excited over the announcement by the general land office, department of the interior that approximately 6.250 acres of land in Snohomish County, Washington, are being opened October 10th for allotment to World War veterans. It will be reopened later to the general public January 19, 1928.
The soil in the region is a dark loam mixed with rock and gravel and is said to contain rich deposits of gold, silver, and copper ore.

But, Pharoah-like, it is reported that the labor leaders have willed this situation shall not obtain and predict the resolution will be defeated on the floor of the convention despite the fact that president Green stands for the same.
The American Federation had just as well make up its mind now to do the fair and square thing by all peoples if it expects labor to reach the highest pinnacle. For be it known that 98 per cent of the dark people are workers and this great number will ever be a thorn in the side of the solution of the Labor Market unless the present attitude of organized labor is reversed.

In spite of the fact that the metropolitan press now reaches into nearly every town and village in the country, the local newspaper in the United States is each year getting on a firmer foundation and becoming more and more useful to its home community.
It may be said that the day of the metropolitan newspaper is at hand. This is true, but it is equally as true that the day of the local newspaper is here too.
The metropolitan daily with its world-wide news, its comic sheets and its magazine supplements, while of course essential in our modern civilization, cannot take the place of the home newspaper. The very fact that the big city daily must cover a broad field forbids its becoming local in any sense, and it is in the local field where the home newspaper dominates and where it finds its true usefulness.
For, after all, it is the home news which is most important to most of us. We have the greatest interest in the community in which we live, and in the people who are our neighbors and friends. And it is the local newspaper which records the happenings of the folks at home, and in addition fosters the civic pride and progressive spirit of the community.
We frequently hear it said that the old time independnt spirit of the newspaper is gone, that its editorial policy is now subservient to the business office. Yet this is not true. There is more unselfish idealism in the average local newspaper than in any other business enterprise. It frequently speaks out in the way which it belives will be for the good of the nation and of the community, regardless of what the consequences may be from a business standpoint. This is more than the average business man will do or can do.
Of course the local newspaper is now on a firm business basis. This is why it is improving from year to year, why it is giving its readers a constantly better newspaper, and why it is increasing its influence for good in the community. But the local newspaper is still the principal booster for the community, and it does its boosting often without any hope of material re-

LOOKS QUEER
BY: W. J. WHEATON
Several hundreds of the "Nordic" students attending the Emerson High School at Gary, Indiana, refused to attend classes because of the presence of a score Aframericans who were cholled. The Gary city council passed to final reading an ordinance carrying an appropriation of $15,000 for the erection, at once, of a temporary building to provide a separate school for the Aframerican students until a new all-Aframerican $1,000,000 school is built.
It is the boast of this nation that its public schools are the most broadening, teach the view of democracy in most practical sense; are the melting pots for the amalgamation and conglomeration of our citizenry. Is that action of the Gary students an exemplification? We venture the assertion that there was not one out of that mass of Gary students who could rate his or her claim to American citizenship with that of students they refused to compete with on equal terms of a civilized scholastic education. The population of Gary is composed principally of a foreign element. The steel works are situated there.
But who is to blame? The students, the spineless school officials, or the tax payer who is willing to have a million dollar burden placed on him at the whim of a few children of foreign born parents. Indiana is a Ku Klux ridden state. Its propaganda of racial hates has permeated its institutions of religion as well as the secular. It is natural that the offspring of parents who had felt the iron heel of class oppression should jimbibe with eagerness any opportunity given to show resentment in kind. The officials of Gary were, without doubt, in sympathy with the action of the students, or else they are as spineless a bunch of bipeds that ever "houked." And where, oh where! are those highly advertised racial leaders or the "Steel" town? Leaders in the educational, fraternal and baseball activities of A-framericans? It cannot be possible that they have slept at the switch, or been blinded by the dazzle of a million dollar separate school.
The fight for equality of American citizenship can never be won as long as there is a separate public school. TR> Public School is the battleground upon which the fight for democracy, in its broadest sense, will be lost or won. It will be the education of actual contact that will broaden the view and dispel the false impression of color inferiority. There can be no equal opportunity of education in a separate school. Do you notice with what avidity the suggestion for mediums or separate education are always met? Just let some poor, misguided simpleton come into a community where an equal opportunity for education is and offer some fool project for separate schools; see how many favorable responses from the whites will be given. Oh yes! Even in California. The fight for equality of American citizenship will be won or lost in the Public Schools.

The National, Federation of Labor, at this, writing, is meeting in Los Angeles. It is said that the fight of Pullman Porters for a "living wage" and the elimination of the tipping system, will be presented by the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. The move on the part of the Porters has already aroused public sympathy, and many noted public men have voiced their approval. It is rumored that Union Labor is, about to dictate to "Uclec Sam" concerning the pay of officers and enlisted men "in all branches of military service. They claim that they should be awarded compensation proportionate to that received by civilians."
When the heads of Departments convene about the Governor's Council, you will see seated near his excellency a quiet man whose youthful face under a shock of luxuriant gray hair, belies his his age, for Alexander R. Heron, who head the state department of Finance is yet in his thirties. We venture to say that no man in the State's government is more familiar with its needs, or more adequately equipped to meet them. Governor Young has surrounded himself with a number of capable men and women who head the several departments of the state. He has studiously appointed them for their efficiency, but in none has he been happier than having associated with him as a director of the State's finances, the quiet, unassuming, capable, efficient, Alexander R. Heron.

According to a survey taken by Race physicians, the increase in pulmonary disease and infant mortality is alarming. The needs for more and better equipped hospitals and trained nurses to cope with the inroads being made by disease, should be stressed. Concerted work on the part of our religious and fraternal bodies would go far toward that end. It was reported that in Virginia the infant mortality was 110 per 1000.
According to a published statement in the News or the World, London, England, Layton and Johnstone-Randolph Sutton are making English feet pitapat to "By-Eye Black Bird."

It is interesting, amusing and highly illuminating, to hear yourself discussed when you are unknown to those who are dissecting you. We had that
pleasure recently when two ladies has behind us on a train car field us up to the mirror and we had to go home and become re-acquainted. They were discussing some of our recent allusions to the Race clergy. One was narrow, the other broad. One pictured me as a devil with a spiked tall and accessories, other thought I might prove a very recent fellow and so on. My destination was a girl. Hope that some day I will be introduced.
James Power for Mayor of San Francisco has an able political asset in the support of John Thyton. "I consider the mayoralty the highest honor within the gift of San Francisco voters. I am in accord with the statement of President Coolidge that this is not a one-man country; that here are available men of ample brains and ability to serve the nation. I believe that two terms are enough with the aid of my fellow citizen. I have in building up a private business of respectable size, therefore I am a candidate for mayor and not for the mayor's salary.
"To serve as the chief executive of San Francisco is an honest ambition of any loyal citizen, and it is with this spirit that I approach this office and for with cold calculation of salary, attached."—From the platform of James Powers, candidate for San Francisco's mayor.

AT LA REPUBLICA TEA ROOM
ANO CAFE
The added features of music and in front of the building, has placed this coupled with the colored light scheme in front of the uiding, has placed this wonderful Tea Room and Cafe in a class by itself. It has, in the last two weeks, been the scene of some of the most exclusive gatherings and parties, in several instances two parties in one evening.
Not only do the merrymakers and seekers frequent and enjoy the good food and hospitality of the management, but the more serious avail themselves of the opportunity to meet with one another upon the important side of life. Some or the outstanding characters are: Dr J. H. Wilson, Bishop Scott and others of the cloth. This place, with its large dancing floor and spacious and well appointed dining room, is fast becoming the center for society and club life in our midst.

Thumb sucking while productive of grave damage to the development jaws and teeth if persisted in over a long period of time, is usually broken early and for that reason is not responsible for all of the deformities frequently attributed to it.
However it is possible for the thumb sucker to displace the upper and lower front teeth of either the temporary or permanent set from their regular position in the mouth thereby throwing the rest of the teeth out of their natural arrangement.
Such results however necessitate the persistence of the habit over a period which extends well beyond babyhood.
Thumb sucking interferes with the proper development of the mouth, the nose, the palate, and the teeth the ability to masticate the food, and changes the tone of the voice. This habit is one of the best means of destroying the normal rounded lines of the face and bringing up the pretty baby into an unattractive looking adult with the backward chin and forward teeth.
Other fingers or the lips are sometimes sucked and those affect the teeth in the same general manner. Pacifiers should also be placed on the black list of the child's needs as the shape of the mouth and jaws may be changed through their use. The question of the most effective means of breaking those injurious habits is one which by no means has been satisfactorily settled, with some children, the task seems almost hopeless while others respond in a manner which is quite encouraging. Whatever method is used, it must be remembered that extreme patience and persistence on the part of the parent are necessary to break the habit.
THE ADEL PHIC CLUB
The Adelphic Club held its regular fortnightly meeting, last Friday evening at the home of Mr. William Bowden. A good number of the members we present and attended the meeting with much enthusiasm. A review of the recent pest with its failures and achievements was presented to the club by the President, Mr. Raymond Smith, this brought out some very sound criticisms. We hope to profit by this review. The members of the Club were highly elated over the return to the fold of George Nemo, one of the organizing members and former president and Mr. Lawrence La Mar, a most dynamic member.

GIRLETICS
BY: GLADYS MATHONICAN
Los Angeles has been for the past week the scene of one of the greatest tennis tournaments ever held in Southern California.
Among the women stars we have Mrs. Molla Mallory, who was queen of the American courts until Helen Wills came along and who won the 1926 match when Helen Wills was too ill to play. Mrs. Mallory has not been seen here since about 1931, when the exception of Suzanne Lenglen, who no woman player in the world is more famous than Mallory, who once blazed across the eminent environment as Molla Bjurstedst. Mrs. Mallory won the American title seven times.
Kla Bonman, the Dutch champion, has never appeared here in public. It is said that she is a few notches ahead of Mrs. Mary Sutton Bundy and it is the opinion or some that she will defeat Mrs. Mallory. Miss Bouman is rated the best woman player on the European continent and the fourth best in the world. With such competing stars it seems as though all tennis fans who visit the tournament will indeed receive a thrilling treat.
Now that the Y. M. C. A. has opened its swimming pool to girls on Saturday afternoon from 12:30 to 2:30, there will most likely be quite a few mermals developed and swimming more popular as a sport among our girls. We hope so, anyway.
School having begun, more of the girls will take an interest in athletics since so many have enrolled in the Girls Athletic Association of the various schools.

Lightning Davis Battles Jimmy Fox for-Beach Cities Championship
M.
As we go to press the road to Culver City is jammed with cars speeding down to the Culver City Stadium where Jimmy Murray has lined up the greatest card of the many he has recently produced. The heavyweight tournament is in full blast and some hair-raising bouts take place each week ending in a series of knock-outs. Lightning Davis just like his name is the most sensational, fastest and greatest fighter in his weight, produced as coast as well as one of the most popular bouts wins by the wrong decision did not discourage him and he has kept forging to the front. In Jimmy Fox he means the best boy in the Coast brittles who has been beating all the boys he met with his rapid sharp shocking and clever boxing. At that Davis is picked to win and hold the championship of the beach cities.

WEEK.
A WEEK during which more things happened of importance to Los Angeles' patrons of sport than any week in the history of the movie capital and sport center of the universe.
LINDY came to town on Tuesday, the greatest sportsman in history; the man who gambled with death; raced against time; wrestled with sleep and exhaustion, and fought cold rain, sleet winds, air-pockets and dashing waves en route, then against damaging sickle hero worship and subsidence into inaction afterwards. And he won over all.
JACK DEMSEY, our own Jack fought on Thursday while the whole town which has adopted him as a native son sat breathless listening to the blows and feeling those that landed on Jack while he battled to bring back the championship to our Coast.
SATURDAY saw the opening of the football season, close of baseball, other greater and lesser events. Speaking of one thing, and talking about another, did you ever stop to think what an awful thing self-conclude is? It is an awful thing, dangnues and a foe to friendship and progress. We have written, yards, and yards about 10 and will write miles and miles more perhaps in the next issue.

THE BLACK SPORT WORLD
THROUGH
THE EYES
OF
ART HAMD.FON
BANG! Following the Bempsey-Tunney fracas we have the World Series next on the sport world calendar staged between the New York Yankees of the American League and Pittsburgh Pirates of the National League. Pittsburgh managed to squeeze through by the skin of their teeth after a thrilling race with the St. Louis Cardinals and the New York Giants.
The victor in the National League was unknown until the eleventh hour, when the Pirates nosed out the Cincinnati Reds in the deciding game by the score of 9-6. Just the contrary in the junior league, the Yankees have had it their way from the first of the season. New York has been in the top position from the opening day until the present. The Yankees made it a big season individually and as a team. They broke the American League record of 105 games won by taking the rest of the teams down the path to the tune of 110 won to 44 lost.
Individually they shone just as brilliantly. Babe Ruth, the slugger in comparable, broke his home-run record by smashing out 60 circuit runs; his former record was 59. One could safely say that this has been the Bambino's best season of his colorful career. Crowding the mighty Ruth for batting honors was Lou Gehrig, the slugging first baseman. Lou pushed Ruth hard for the home-run laurels up until the last few weeks and he last few weeks and he dropped out of the limelight and ended a most successful season with a total of 47 home runs. The New York Yankees have the hardest hitting team in the majors. With such batters as Ruth, Gehrig, Muesel, Combs and Lazzeri the Yankees should literally burn up the series with their mighty drives. The Hug man have enjoyed exceptional success in the pitching department with Hoyt, Peanock, Ruether and Moore bearing the brunt of the opposition's attacks.
Pittsburgh has a team that hustles until the final put-out and will give the Yankees plenty of trouble. The Pirates have their sluggers in the persons of the two Waner brothers and Harris, the slugging first sacker. Donnie Bush's men are fast and are on the look-out for every break of the game that can be accorded them. The break is a vital point in any sport as a break may decide a championship.
Calendar Carnival, St. Paul, Oct. 12, 13, 14. Plenty of fun.
THE MONTH OF JULY
CAMPUS DUST
U. S. C. co-eds register joy and glom. All this happened when our skool friend with some collegiate ideas, pretends to intend to enter the School of Pharmacy and be with them on the Campus. Pardon me, dear reader, but I have reference to William (Bill) Narcises who is probably now idling among the shrubbery that is in abundance about the Campus of dear old Howard. Bill should go great with girls, you, know.-Californian, formerly of the Trejan institution, and all that bink; but, that goes big for the girls.
The boys who attend the Cardinal and Gold Institution, are hoping right out loud that Bert Ritchie from San Diego Hight will go out for, and make the varsity football team next year. But until, they must be content to watch him mop up during the track season.
Last Saturday, the preliminary game to the U. S. C-Ocidental game, Pasadena Junior College demonstrated just how much dependant she was on two of our boys, James (Slick) Stocks and Alvin Brownlee. The team is practically built around these two boys.
Them guys out at U. C., L. A., must surely be a selfish bunch, or a drove of sweet boys. They haven't sent in a single line concerning their sport activities. So we must figure out some way to arouse some of that "he" stuff in them. Here's hoping how Grant Venerable who has captured the presidency of the Agenda is probably busy scheduling a heavy social sea son, and being a great host among athletic material for the various social committees. We hope though, that our friends Kenneth Levy sticks to the track and earns his big C, and the other boy Errol Jones continues on the boxing team.
Merry Makers Win First Game
The N. N. B's suffered defeat at the hands of the Merry Makers on Sunday last in the first game of the season with a tally of 19 to 7. Bryant of the Merry Makers made a touch-down and kicked two goals Ateman 1 and Williams 1. Allen made the lone tackle for N. N. B's and Towns kicked goal. The La Premiers and Olympics play next Sunday.
Date of Music Week Chosen As May 6-12
Organizations and individuals that observe the National Music Week are being asked to enter on their calendars the week of May 6-12, 1928, as the time of the coming celebration. This date has just been announced by the National Music Week Committee from its headquarters at 45 West 45th street, New York City. In view of the fact that the 1927 observance was held on May 1-7, the committee thinks it well to point out that there is no change in the period for the coming Music Week. The festival of music always begins on the first Sunday in May which, next year, happens to fall a little later than usual. Although not all of the local Music Week committees have yet filed their reports on the last observance, it is already evident that the 1927 figures will considerably exceed those of 1926, when there were nearly 1,400 participating cities and towns.
Foreign adoption of the Music Week idea grows with each year's observance in this country. Following South Africa, where there have been two annual Music Fortnights at Johannesburg, comes a new adherent in British East Africa, where a music festival week is planned for this October in Nairobi, under the auspices of the Acting Governor, Sir Edward Denham. Observances were held last spring in Canada and in several of our own territories such as Alaska, the Philippines, Guam, Hawaii and the Virgin Islands. The Governor of the latter territory, Capt. Waldo Evans, is one of the recent additions to the Honorary Committed of Governors on the national Music Week Committee.

New York, Sept. 30—Arthur Briggs, who came into prominence during the trial of the three colored prohibition agents who were on trial during July. has instituted a suit against Major August Heise, former ass't, director of prohibition in New York for $100,000 damages for third degree torture methods admitted by Major Heise during the trial. Briggs, who was acquitted in the Federal Court on a charge of bribery, alleges in his complaint that employees of the Prohibition Bureau, under the direction of Major Heise, beat him and inflicted on him a Chinese torture and the third degree in an effort to force from him a confession implicating certain prohibition agents in an alleged bribery plot. The charge of brutality made by Briggs, aroused wide-spread protests and resulted in an investigation by the Federal Grand Jury. Heise was suspended, but the Grand Jury exonerated him.
Briggs charges that on the night of December 13, last, he was taken to Prohibition headquarters and without any process of law or warrant, was kept there from nine o'clock until 2 o'clock in the morning. He complains that Major Heise and others tied his arms and legs to a chair with ropes and wrapped a towel around his head which was then twisted, thus inflicting upon him a "barbarous method of torture known as the Chinese torture." He was then also beaten, bruised and kicked, Briggs charges.

We are too close to the picture. Our vision is centered on one little lot or community, and as a result, we miss about 99% of the development going on in other sections and on other lots. Fate, however, will exact a penalty. That penalty will be work and plenty of it. Someone will be playing in the shoes we should be wearing. Our present population is around 1,250,000. 100,000 times twelve is 1,200,00. Then, according to this, in twelve years or in 1939, Los Angeles will almost double her present population.
The office is in receipt this week of announcement of arrival of Margaret Helena Danley on September 11th to Mr. and Mrs. S. B. Danley, Jr. of Springfield, Ill. Mr. Danley will be remembered as former probation officer of this city, and is the son of Rev. S. B. Danley-of Pasadena.

Circle Tour Includes Diversified Scenery
The visitor to California is always enchanted with the circle tour from Los Angeles to San Diego, Imperial Valley, via the west side of the Salton Sea and through the Orange belt back to the starting point.
Leaving Los Angeles one follows the Coast route, the beauty or which is truly symbolic of California. It lies through green fragrant orange groves and walnut orchards till the old mission of San Juan Capistrano is reached. A few miles beyond this point one has the first view of the magnificent Pacific with its foaming, white-crested waves. The ocean, with its ever changing beauty, is in sight for virtually the whole distance into San Diego. Leaving this city over the Borderland Highway, two routes diverge in the beautiful Cajon Valley in the town of El Cajon to the Mesa Grande, Julian and Palomar districts, and the other thiru Bostonia, Alpine, etc., to Jacumba Hop Springs. A drive of 48 miles from this point brings the motorist from an elevation of 2800 feet to El Centro, below the sea level.
Cotton picking, date gardens and scenic side trips to the Painted Gorge and Palm Canyon are features of this route which is a very attractive one to motorists. If visited while in bloom the desert is a thing of beauty and not soon forgotten. Miles of lavender, white and blue flowers border the highway. A ride of two or three hours brings one into the orange grove coun-
try again, after a very delightful sojourn in the mountains, by the seaside and through desert districts which offer the maximum of diversified scenic attractions.
Yosemite Routes Reported in Shape
The Coulterville Road from Modesto to Yosemite Valley is still in good condition, although sections or dirt part of the road are becoming somewhat rough due to heavy traffic during the past months. Most all of the roads to Yosemite Valley are in good condition at this time, according to the Touring Department of the National Automobile Club.
Speedometer Chain
Oiling Important
Disconnect the speedometer chain
where it connects to the instrument
and pour in a small amount of engine
oil every 10,000 miles. According to
the Service Department of the National
Automobile Club, this detail of lubrication is almost universally overlooked, but is quite important to the successful operation of the speedometer.
AUTOMOTIVE NOTES
Construction plans of 600 kilometers (373 miles) of new roads have been approved by the Argentine government, says a report received by the National Automobile Club.
First States: Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, New Mexico and South Carolina have a five-cent gasoline tax, according to the National Automobile Club.
It is estimated that Australia will spend approximately $175,000,000 in the next ten year on extension, improvement and maintenance of highways, according to a report received by the National Automobile Club.
A NEW CAR-LET CHELO V YOU
During hot weather it is very important that motorists check on the tension of the fan belt. Loose fans, according to L. G. Evans of the Department of the National Automobile Club, are responsible for much of the tension of self-service internal troubles.
BIG PINES COUNTRY INSPIRING REGION
In the northeastern part of Los Angeles County, ninety-six miles by the way of the Cajon Pass and one hundred and six miles via Palmdale and the Antelope Valley, from Los Angeles, lites a mountain region that is now giving an ever increasing number of motorists a taste of mohain beauty and in spirtation.
While it lacks the waterfalls of the Yosemite, this mountain country is almost as satisfying as the famous national park itself to those in search of mountain scenery and atmosphere. Los Angeles County officials have sensed its grandeur and have made Big Pines Recreation Camp a county playground.
Construction work is now progressing on the Blue Ridge road which overlooks the park itself, and is making accessible to motorists a section heretofore reached only on foot or with pack animals. The Blue Ridge road when completed will lead into the beautiful Prairie Fork Valley, where trout streams and meadows form a paradise for fishermen and campers. The road will not be complete for another year, but at the point now reached by the crew may be seen a perspective of Antelope Valley and Victor Valley, while North Baldy approaches the immediats foreground.
Automobile Driving
Splendid Exercise
Automobile driving is a good exercise and is conducive to good health. That is the conclusion drawn from a series of tests made by the medical students of the University of Wisconsin.
In a bulletin issued follow the investigations, it is declared that driving gives a great deal of exercise to the arm and shoulder muscles, while the leg muscles get an important amount of work in operating the brake and clutch, especially in downtown traffic. The exercise is not strenuous but is regular and this is said to be an additional advantage, according to the bulletin. It is also pointed out that the car driving of today requires less effort than even before, but at the same time requires enough effort to provide good exercise.

New York, Sept. 40—A triangle which had extended over a period of seven long, and bitter years, came to an end early Sunday morning, when detectives and witnesses trapped Eddie Armstead, popular restaurantaurent, and a pretty young woman, Miss Gertrude Blue, in an apartment house on Edgecombe Avenue in this city.
According to the story, Armstead became enamoured of Miss Blue while she was working in his establishment and some three years ago, left his wife to live with the younger woman.
Sunday morning, the raiding party, including Mrs. Armstead and her mother, visited the fashionable apartment house and discovered the pair there. It is said that Armstead was so intoxicated, he did not know what was happening. Miss Blue was scantily clad, and when the party entered the room, begged the detectives to give her time to dress herself.
The Armasteads have been married for twenty years, coming to this city from the south, establishing the reservation which has been unusually successful.
Flood Cripples Many Southern Sections
(By A. N. P.)
New Orleans, La., Sept. 30.—The entire United States will gradually feel the effect of the desolation and waste due to the recent earthquake that has disrupted people and communities is such that what affects one sooner or later reach the other and that, which retards blacks, alike holds back whites.
es. White firms are not the only ones affected. In proportion as the large wholesale and retail establishments have their business curtailed so is employments for our group less and numbered. In companies, mail order concerns, and even schools have felt the economic loss which the flood has brought.
Statistics are beginning to come in after the first confused weeks. In Arkansas, 1,838,580 acres were under water, in Louisiana which was next. 1,112,000. In all there were 4,417,500 acres, comprising 124 counties or parishes under water. Much of this was swamp land, but 2,600,000 acres had been planted in cotton and 1,100,000 acres had been in corn. It staggers the imagination to think of all that loss and most of it from our people who could least afford it. It represented clothes, food, schooling, all of the necessities and a few of the luxuries of life. 25,325 mules and horses were lost; 50,490 cattle; 148,110 hogs and 1,276,570 chickens, ducks and other fowl. This latter figure, despite the fact that not ten per cent of the farmers in that area raise chickens or gardens again gives a picture of the great slaughter. What it cannot show is the personal suffering and discouragement which those people are facing.
The Red Cross has replaced many of the animals and helped to reconstruct the cabin houses. It cannot restore the crops, although it is feeding where no work is available and absolute destination faces families. The Red Cross is co-operating closely with the Colored Rehabilitation Commission headed by Dr. Robert Moton and while it is a drab, dogged job without much graphic attention from the press or the public, a good job is being done. Hopes for a special session of Congress which might start anew work on levies and repairs has waned since President Coolidge put his foot down on it. There is little migration. The folk are living in hope that the new year and a new crop will be the way out and trusting in the Lord for the present.
