1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1928 Charges of Heresy Filed By His Ministerial Brethern (By: J. B. BASS) Dr. J. D. Gordon great Baptist preacher has hurled the charges filed before the Baptist Ministers Alliance back into the teeth of his accusers and it looks like a finish fight between opposing factions of this particular denomination. Dr. Gordon is a pioneer minister on these western shores, admitted by his enemies as perhaps the most forceful and eloquent divines in the entire country. He has bad many calls from various sections of the country to accept charges of vastly greater emoluments than he receives at Tabernacle Baptist Church where he has pastored more than 25 years. Several years ago he went East to accept one of the high offices in the Garvey movement. He became disatisfied, quit the movement and accepted the call of a church in Brooklyn. His sentimental attachment for Tabernacle was however so great that he could not resist but, relinquished his charge at Brooklyn to come back to Tabernacle, where he is dearly beloved by a most loyal following. Not only that he has quite a following who appreciates him as a gospel preacher from all the churches as well as citizens who are not members of any church. They like a clean cut preacher, who preaches and who is not afraid to preach. Dr Gordon is one of the independent preachers and says that he thinks is right and the average man cannot see what all these choices which they are bringing up along with his preaching is about. Dr. Gordon answered them up at a home meeting in his church on last Sunday evening, and explained them so thoroughly and satisfactory, that when a vote of confidence and support was called for every person in the house stood up as one of his champions. Several prominent churchmen and citizens spoke highly endorsing Dr. Gordon as a preacher and citizen among whom were Assemblyman F. M. Roberts; Wallace Clark; W. H. Sanders; G. W. Snell; Dr. H. D. Prowd; and many others. The following are the five points which Dr. Gordon explained to the delectation of his many hearers on last Sunday evening. THAT DR. GORDON Charge No. 1. Receiving messages from Dr. G. W. Shields. No. 2 That there is no death. No. 3 Spoke against the blood of Jesus. No. 4 Said we are spirits. and Epiphys. No. 5 That he both with Dr. Shields that, he Shields was God. Shields that he Shields was God, As we write this we are informed that arrangement are being made by briends of Dr. Dron for a monster meeting on Sunday March 4th sponsored by a committee from all the various churches that he will have a hearing that everybody will know what it is all about, that the many charges of heresy which are scheduled for a hearing before the Baptist Ministerial Council on Monday March 5th, Full announcement will be made in our next issue. NOT "JUST LUCK" While others are "singing em" "Presidential election year, hard times" and a' that. Abbrey A. Gitten, the westside live-wire realtor starts off 1928 with a bang. Following is the list of deals consummated this week. Sold to Ademe and McKee Land Co. 120 acres in Palmdale Calif.; sold to H. E. Howard 4 apt. houses on W. 35 Pl. and St. Andrews Blvd. Sold to O. S. Horn, builder or fine apt. houses, 20 lots in San Dimas; Sold J. E. Albright, postoffice clerk, a home on McKinley Ave. and A. E. 36 St. Even with this record breaker of closing 4 big deals in a week Mr. Gitten says there are other big deals he expects to close in a few days. It can readily be understood that it is not just luck with Mr. Gillen, rather should it be said that it is somewhat of the pluck demonstrated that he used in the sensational transaction of the Waters estate, when he started the buying and selling to Negroes property not before sold to them in the exclusive westside section. "It is easy if you try," so says E. Gitten. Mr. Gitten is located at 1468 W. Jefferson and may be reached by phoning EM. 1516. MADDEN FLAYS SO. CAROLINA CONGRESSMAN STEVENSON ADVISED "BIG BIG" THOMPSON TO ELIMINATE AFRICANS FROM P. O. CLEAN UP YOUR HOME IS MADDEN'S RETORT SMITH CHAGRINED BECAUSE BLACKS ARE LEAVING AND FORCING THEM TO WORK WASHINGTON, D. C.—(Special)—Hurrying from a meeting of the Appropriations Committee, when he learned that Congressman William F. Stevenson of South Carolina was getting off a tribute against Negro employees of the Chicago Post Office Representative Martin B. Madden admonished him to go back down South and clean up his own house, in a stinging rebuke Wednesday. The rebuke followed a sarcastic speech made by the South Carolina representative while he was reading into the records a resolution from the National Civic Welfare Association of Chicago, headed by one L. W. Gelbaugh, white, and which is fighting the present policy of employing colored people in the Chicago post office. Stevenson declared that it was the contention of the National Civic Welfare League that the Negroes were getting too much recognition from political bosses. They say in this communication that the population of Chicago is in excess of $400,000 and 150,000 or this population, or about five per can, are colored. Out of the entire employment in the Chicago post office or 11,019 men and women, 2,950 or 31 per cent, are colored. Quoting a report made by efficiency experts during the Harding administration in 1921 to the effect that at that time 900 white men could do the work that 1400 colored men were done. Stevenson suggested that $1,000,000 a year could be saved by reducing the number of race men and women employed. "I will say in conclusion." Stevenson said "that they have a Mayor out there who would drive out the English from the public schools and higher institutions of learning. According to these people here, he ought to get busy and eliminate a few Africans from the post office, if they are telling the truth." MADDEN REPLIES "It is clear," botly retorted Representative Madden, "that the gentleman from South Carolina has no motive in presenting this case. Perhaps if he could look nearer home he could find better reason for clearing up things than he finds in the case of clearing up Chicago. "Chicago needs no defense. The Mayor of Chicago needs no defense. If he is not American, who is? If these black people in Chicago are not American, where are Americans to be found? They are citizens of the United States and are recognized as such in Chicago. 3.200 EMPLOYED "Chicago post office is the second biggest post office in the nation. It employs 14,000 Americans, 3,000 of whom are colored. They are patriotic Americans. They do their duty as they find it. They are law-abiding citizens. They have the respect of the community in which they live. There are more than 150,000 black people in Chicago, I should say 400, 000. They have made more progress there than any other class I know. They are in the banking business and in the manufacturing business. They are in all the activities that attract the best minds of the best people or he world. "I am proud to be here to speak for the black people of Chicago and the nation. I apologize to no man, whatever he may be, for my interest in the black people of America." SOUTH CHAGRINED The people of the South are naturally a little chagrined because the black people are leaving them and forcing them to work. They would like to have them back, but the black people refuse to do it after they have obtained a simple glimpse of liberty as it is to be found in north; yes, Chicago, I am glad that Chicago is sufficiently liberal in its views whether they be black or white. "In Chicago, all citizens, of all races, are honored as they deserved to be honored; and Chicago, the queen of the inland seas, pays no attention whatever to any protests from any crowd so narrow minded as those who sent this circular letter to the gentleman from South Carolina." PRISONER COMMITS SUICIDE (By: A. N. P.) New York, N. Y., Feb. 20—Warren Jackson, 26, a prisoner in the Queens County Jail, hanged himself using his own scarf, which he tied to the upper part of the coffin bunk. Jackson was charged with felonies assault, having lit John Camewell, a close friend, with a knife. When ragged on the charge, the magistrate ordered the colored man held in $500 bail. He denied intending injury to his friend and was so remorseful over the whole affair that he took his own life. West Indian Music Thrills Paris (By: A. N. P.) New York, N. Y., Feb. 21—West Indian music has taken Paris by storm, according to the latest report from the French capital. A group from the Island of Martinique started the fad in the city. In this unique music, the flute plays an important part, taking the place of the American saxophone. Another innovation is the use of small pebbles in the hands of the drummer, giving a swishing sound as of water on the beach. Many Sunday parties feature this new style of music. MURDERER DIES ON GALLOWS Natchitoches, La., Feb. 21.—Aaron Ray, Negro, was hanged Friday, Feb. 10, for the murder of Ross Dobson, postmaster at Chestnut, October 27. 63-Year Old Man Commits Suicide (By: A. N. P.) New Orleans, La., Feb. 21.—WHMn J. Nickerson, 63-year-old musician, was found dead in a gas-filled room by members of his family. Coroner Geo. Roeling after an investigation, pronounced it a case of suicide. Nickerson had been in ill health for sometime and on numerous occasions had threatened to take his own life. BANKER GETS STIFF SENTENCE (By: A. N. F.) New York, N. Y., Feb. 26.—Wilfred Brunder, one of New York's biggest number bankers, was sentenced Friday to one and a half years to three years in the penitentiary by the judges in Special Sessions Court. Brunder was arrested along with seven others, one of whom was released. --- BILBREW TWINS AT PHILLIPS TEMPLE SUNDAY THE NEGRO NATIONAL ANTHEM A lady remarked to me one day, "Isn't the Negro National Anthem a glorious song?" "Yes," I replied, "and an unusual number at that." "Oh," returned the lady, "I always enjoy hearing it sung, but they do not sing it here as they do in the East. Somehow," continued she, "the audiences that I have heard sing it in this part of the country fail to register the intense fervor and spirit with which the song should be sung. Where I came from the people really and truly 'Lift Every Voice and Sing.' Yes, they sing it from their souls," she finished with a dramatic gesture of her hands. I couldn't contradict the very charming and intelligent woman who had uttered these words as I knew she had spoken truthfully. Un Certainty hovered about in my mind as to how this group or ours sang the famous hymn in the East but I did not know that the colored population in Los Angeles did not know it as well as they knew "America" or the "Star Spangled Banner." perhaps. Recently a well-known author and lecturer of our group delivered an address at one of the local churches. The opening number on the program was "Lift Every Voice and Sing," now called the "Negro National Anthem." Before entering the church, I stood outside and listened. Again I had to agree with my Eastern acquaintance. The strain of the song coming from with the edifice was truly lacking in spirit and fervor. Yes, it was even feeble in a way. It sounded as if the majority of the audience did not know the words and was not exactly familiar with the melody. As a race, we are learning this splendid song altogether too slowly. Wayne Francis, eminent writer, has, to say this of the Negro National Anthem: "Besides the 'Star Sangled Banner' and 'America,' there is a third National Anthem in the United States, known to ten million of its citizens and adopted by them as their own. * * * * In the minds of many colored people, the song not only epitomizes the history of the race and its condition, but voices their hope for the future. * * * Both the words and music are far better than the ridiculous "Star Sangled Banner" and as long as the nation wants this song, the nation, black and white, will sing the noble lines and the rolling majesty of its music." Colored citizens of Los Angeles and Southern California we must learn this storious hymn. TOWA ROSALYNE HEARD Robt. Frazier and Oscar Smith to Appear In Person As a new departure in the showing of features made partly by Negro actors, the Fox Studios contemplate at times having prominent characters of the production appear in person at theaters which have a large colored patronage. In the near future at a return engagement of the Wizard which drew big crowds to the Rosebud Theatre, Richard Frazier and Oscar Smith, both prominent, and valued actors will appear during the run of the feature. They both worked in "Honor Bound" for the Fox Studio also. HOTEL SOMMERVILLE GOING FORWARD The Sommerville Hotel Building is rapidly going forward with scores of builders working thereon and without question will be finished in time for a grand and magnificent opening early in June. The hotel corporation is now duly organized and business is going forth on a large scale. As a direct result of this company an opening wedge has opened of avenues of employment which has heretofore been closed to the race, when the Los Angeles Gaa and Electric Company put to work quite a few workers to be followed later by many more. Dean Pickens Speaks Sunday At Phillips Chapel Dean Pickens will speak Sunday afternoon at Phillips Chapel, 42nd and Wadsworth.

Looms On The Horizon Upon a recent visit or a representative of this paper to the beautiful spacious furniture factory of the Heflin Manufacturing Company, Inc., located at 2330 Santa Ana Blvd., Watts, we found the Company busily engaged in the manufacture of complete household furniture and novelties. We also found the officers busily engaged in preparing for the opening of the casket department which will swing into full operation on March 1st. A complete line of the latest designs as well as those created by Mr. Heflin, will be manufactured. On the sale floor we saw radio stands, fireside benches, foot stools, smoking stands, and lamp standards finished in colors that are most beautiful. If you are planning or furnishing your home, see what the Heflin Company has to offer. The company will give any industrial young man desiring to learn a trade, an opportunity to come in and learn. They are planning a great opening in April. Watch this paper for details. This great opening will be the greatest ever offered by our people in any industrial way. Prizes will be given. W. Walker Connected With California Eagle Mr. Walker has been placed in charge of the Circulation Department of the California Eagle. He was born in the State of Georgia, MR. W. WALKER and received his learning in Public Schools of Arkansas, Oklahoma, Arizona, California and Honolulu. Mr. Walker has been placed in charge of this Department due to his qualifications. Mr. Walker is requesting that each leading organization will have an official representative to help him put over the program. We shall watch the results of this new addition with the keenest interest and our confidence in the ability of this young man to put over this wonderful program shall not wane. WE are, it matters little whether we realize it or not, living in an age of advanced thinking—we no longer have a right to look forward to our very own future—as a group, we are looking forward to a bigger and better America for our children. ```markdown ``` AND, if these future Black Americans are lifted to a higher plane, of civilization, it will be due to the fact that we have been willing to sacrifice our selfish ambitions; to wreck our petty prejudices, practiced by us in our churches, clubs and numerous other organizations, and like soldiers, who, after battle, stack their arms, forget the turmoil of war, and start forth on that cheerful march homeward where peace reigns and love is master. WE, too, must realize that full liberation and restoration to our true place in world civilization, depends upon our calling halt to our petty bickering, stack arms, and call for a season of peace; for then and not until then, will we start to lay the foundation for a civilization that will cause the Black people to no longer be the target at which all other peoples hurt their prejudices, but instead, the object or envy because of the depths of despair from which we have ascended. ```markdown ``` THIS week's church campaign took as into the now world-famous Angelus Temple of which the Rev. Almee Semple McPherson is the pastor. The shades of evening were closing in upon another dying day, when we entered the great temple. The spacious auditorium was not packed, but comfortably filled. There on the rostrum sat, as she and her followers style her, Sister McPherson, at her left stood a gentleman who in pleasing tones, told the great audience about the life (in book form) of the Evangelist just to the press, and admonished everyone to read it and digest the truths therein. Sister McPherson then stepped forward, and with her coming to the altar, the great chorus marched down from the choir loft and were seated in the pews. After a song by the chorus, lead by the pastor, Sister McPherson spoke briefly on "The Relationship Between Elijah and Elisha," after which she baptised seventy-five persons, in some cases emersing five at once. WHILE to the casual observer, there would be too much Aimee in evidence, there is no question about it. Almee McPherson has built Los Angeles' greatest church institution where a spirit of welcome awaits everyone. Angelus Temple is not only a soulsaving station, but a haven of refuge for the poor and needy—a place where the wanderer finds his way back to the proper fold of right living—where life is started and stimulated by right thinking, and where, last but not least, the poor and dejected among us find food and seltter without money or price. LAST week's program had a very satisfactory ending for on Saturday afternoon, Dr. Vada Somerville, who is master at the wheel, came by and whirred us away to "La Vada Apartments," at 249 E. Vernon avenue. We heard something about an apartment being erected by the Somervilles but we had not even dared to dream of anything so completely beautiful as this apartment which is not surpassed by the most up to date Hollywood apartments in modernity and finish. "La Vada" in equipment, convenience and artistic value, will please the most fastidious taste and yet, in price, will accommodate the most conservative. STUDIO-RECITAL Elementary piano-pupils of Elmer C. Bartlett, gave their regular quarterly recital Saturday afternoon Feb. 18 at the Bartlett Studio, 936 E. Pico St. Ten pupils appeared on program.

New Kind Of School For Negro Boys and Girls Who Cannot Pay NOW OPERATING AT PEACE, CLEVELAND COUNTY, ARKANSAS A Negro Psychologist in the person of John Andrew Patterson, who has spent more than 30 years of his life doing research work in the field of Pay psychology, is operating a new kind of school to meet the needs of thousands of boys and girls who because of poverty cannot pay. The Peace College Movement is the result of plans the founder has been formulating since the Spanish-American war, to the end of creating a new kind of "all-work and no-pay" school for that class of youths unable to educate beyond the little inadequate District schools.

Peace College Movement will, in addition to present day educational methods and principles, employ a new educational regime based upon a remarkable psychological discovery made by the founder. A prominent local Banker who has assisted the founder in raising several thousand dollars to promote the work, writes concerning the founder and his plans: "Those intimately acquainted with Jno. A. Patterson, and his plans to build a great school here, are convinced that he and his plans stand head and shoulder above Booker T. Washington. Please do not understand that I would detract oneota from Washington. He had a great plan that has been successful, and he deserves more credit and applause from the entire people of the United States than he has ever received, but when one learns of Patterson and his plans, he will be convinced that my comparison is true." An American Psychologist and educator of International note and now President of an American College writes April 16, 1927: "You are going to do the greatest single piece of work ever done for the Negro race or any other race, if you carry out your noble plans. I know of no great work that offers such wonderful possibilities, not even Tuskegee, as what you have in mind for Negro folk." The founder's recent book, dealing with the subject of prayer, its Psychology and phenomena, has created wide-spread interest in the Peace College Movement. School is operating day and night. Students may enter this new kind of school any day in the year. The school is non-demonstrational. Students who do not believe in work will not be tolerated at any price; for activity is the soul of life and all human achievement.

SOPHIA SMITH MAGAZER Collector of Internal Revenue, Galen H. Welch, wishes the taxpayers of Southern California to understand that the service rendered by Deputy Collectors in assisting to make out income tax returns is absolutely free, and no charge of any nature whatsoever is made by the Government. Complaint has been made that persons representing themselves as Deputy Collectors after assisting taxpayers in the preparation of their returns have attempted to collect a fee. Such cases should be promptly reported to the Collector's Office, giving the names or persons attempting to collect the fee and full details. Impostors will be vigorously prosecuted for impersonating a Federal Officer. Mr. Welch urges that all income taxpayers make their returns at once. The final filing date is March 15th, only about three weeks away. COLLECTOR REV. 218 Federe Los Angeles GENERAL MOM PETERSON ST. OLT 1844 COLLECTOR OF INTERNAL REVENUE 218 Federal Building. Los Angeles, California E.G. HILL MODERN EQUIPMENT, SYMPATHETIC AND ECONOMIC SERVICE TO ALL. RAL PARLORS PARLORS & CO. O J. C. KIL Aktie-Beleger Hampton Institute, Va., Jan. 30. Dr. Edwin Mims, professor of English Literature at Vanderbilt University, and author of "The Advancing South," delivered at Hampton Institute the Founder's Day address on "Lost Leadership" commemorating General Samuel Champman Armstrong, the founder of Hampton Institute for the education of the Negro, before its trustees, students, faculty and leaders from north and south in the movement for better race relations. After a tribute to General Armstrong, Dr. Mims deplored the loss of leadership to the nation through premature death, war, and disease, and dwelt at length on the potential leadership in not only the young generation, but among men of intellect, who are seeking no quiet in useful action. "We have an aristocracy," said Dr. Mims, "who merely indulge in watching the struggles of democracy from the side lines instead of playing the game. To my mind one of the saddest things in America today is intellectual" smartness. In the revolt against dullness they have produced the cult of smartness. Their revolt against convention becomes the convention of revolt; in the place of Polly Anna optimism they have put the direct pessimism those who would remedy the very conditions they deplore are considered by them merely "Jitney Messiahs" smitten with the cant of service. In speaking of the contributions of General Armstrong to American life, Dr. Mims said, "I did not know him, but I have seen him and heard him ever since I have been on the Hampton campus. I have felt him at Tuskegee and have seen him in Rosenwald schools and in the colleges where Hampton graduates have taught. I feel him in the autobiographies of his two most distinguished pupils, Booker T. Washington and Robert R. Moton, who have given us all the right to claim them as two of the most useful Americans or this generation." Trustees of the institute present at the Founder's Day exercises were: Frances G. Peabody, Clarence H. Kelsey, George Foster Peabody, William Jay Schieffelin, Frank W. Darling, W. Cameron Forbes, Alexander B. Trowbridge, James E. Gregg, Robert R. Moton, Henry Wilber Foote, Homer L. Ferguson, and J. Henry Scattergood. SAVE MONEY SAVING Money is SAVING Money is easy when you ride the Big Red Cars.

Some customs and institutions pass away so swiftly and completely that a succeeding generation can scarcely realize to what extent such a custom was once prevalent and how much it meant to the generation that came before. The boys and girls, men and women who live in our large cities can not appreciate how much the pastime known as the Sunday afternoon walk once meant to people who are now along in years. This diversion is not to be compared to what is now known as "hiking;" the Sunday afternoon walk was not so strenuous and energetic as this latter-day form of leg-exercise. The modern hiker expects some tangible returns on his investments. He is out for air and exercise and he purposes to get them. Over hill and dale along the country-road he stretches his legs and the more tired he gets the better he likes it. Though he has no particular destination in mind and sets no time limit on his performance, the modern hiker is none the less a very business-like person. Not so the Sunday afternoon walker of a generation or two ago. His was a leisurely proceeding. He was in search neither of romantic scenery nor of violent exercise. His performance consisted of nothing more strenuous than an amiable ambling through parts of the city into which he did not venture every day, or perhaps his stroll took him for a short way out into the country. But it is gone, this custom. One by one conditions changed as mechanical inventions came in to cut us off from this simple pleasure: The bicycle, the automobile, the motion picture show, and the commercialized amusement park—all contributed to supplant the Sunday afternoon walk with something more hurried and feverish than we had ever known before. We have become hot in our pursuit of pleasure and diversions; we must be always going somewhere, and when we get there we must either be entertained or hurry off elsewhere.

It is interesting also to see he rests there are that are taking big As the newspaper man looks over exchanges coming from various parts of the country, he is impressed with the great use that is being made of advertising. The advertising space used in newspapers has greatly increased. Take the big city dailies, for instance. If you took the newspaper which hbefore the war used to run an average of about 16 pages, the chances are that that paper will be running today from 24 pages to 32. The enlargement is not primarily due to the use of more news, though the space given to reading matter has increased. The big share of the increase is due to advertising. It is interesting also to see how many concerns and interests there are that are taking big ads of a half page or full page, or two pages. The fact that so many concerns are willing to put up the money for this big display shows how thoroughly standardized advertising has become, and how much it is depended upon for results by those who use it persistently and with judgment. Fortunes are being made every day through advertising, and by this means a multitude of business men are rising out of a small and inferior positions into leadership in the business community. An open mind is all right if you know when to close your mouth. A hick town is a place where $50,000 can cause a severe case of swell head. No man falls too low to be saved or to marry a woman who will take in boarders. DO SOMEHTING: If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened A friend is one who can forgive you for everything except climbing above his level. A hypocrite is a man who can't even believe what he hears when he talks to himself. COMMENTS The above headed a news story appearing in a San Francisco Daily of Feb. 14. It follows: "Should laws excluding Mexican labor from the United tates be enacted by Congress, 20,000 Negroes from the Southern States will come to California immediately to work in fields and orchards at $1 day, information to this effect was received yesterday by the Agricultural Labor Bureau of the San Joaquin Valley, according to announcement from the California Development Association." Preposterous. Either the Bureau and the Association have been hoaxed or some pro-allen labor enthusiast has started a propaganda. In the first place the Negroes of California would assist all other labor to keep the State free from the tain of peonage, and that is just exactly what a $1 wage, would mean. Again, they would not allow the exploitation of black men and women who would be gullible enough to believe that gold is found in the streets, and that it is a land of perpetual sunshine and blooming flowers. It costs as much, and more to live in California, as any State of the Union. There would be nothing, absolutely nothing, that $1 a day could purchase. It is hoped that no ambitions, selfish Negro is the author of such a canard. For him: the Bay on one side, the Ocean on the other, and both waters are deep. If it's a "Nordie" imprisonment for attempt to defraud. Secretary of Labor, Davis, speaking before the meeting of the Marine Engineers Beneficial Association in Washington deplored the fact that the continued ingenuity in inventing labor saving machines, added to the yearly lengthening line of jobless men. The Secretary said: "Some of the joy over the great inventive genius of our masters of mechanics has been turning to grief as we witness yearly the growing line of job-seekers trained men, middle-aged men of experience, who have been forced from their trades and vocations by labor saving machinery." --- Quite in contrast to the views of a widely read syndicate writer who advocates letting down the bars of immigration to further lengthen the line of the jobless. But then the Secretary of Labor is a practical man from the ranks of labor; the other is a visionary who has invested in desert and uncultivated land. He writes of towering mountains, blue skies and what not. He would like some of that $1 a day labor to make his desert land "blossom as the rose." Capital is selfish. ```markdown ``` To the casual observer it seems as if the Labor Bureau of the San Joaquin Valley Agricultural Association and the California Development Association are antagonistic to the "Box Bill" which places a restriction of Mexican labor which is becoming a megace to the industrial situation, especially to organized labor. It is obvious that they wish to co-interact the sentiment against cheap alien labor by raising the alarm of an influx of cheap Negro labor from the South. Like every one who has an interest in the development of California wish to see the waste places made fruitful, but not at the cost of a lowered standard of living. The working people can rest assured that there will be no influx of cheap Southern Labor—Negro—No peonage—$1 a day—for California. State Printer, Carroll H. Smith, in his report to Governor Young said: "The State government made a direct saving of $344,991.53 in State publication of elementary school text books during 1927. Had the State been without a printing plant for production of free text books, the cost would have approximated $806,711.27 on the basis of private publishers' prices. While the excellent showing is partly due to the faithful loyalty of the personnel of the plant, who take a personal pride in the performance of the duties assigned them. No small degree of the credit is due to the Superintendent, J. M. Welsh, whose executive ability and efficiency in the planning of details plays no mean part in maintaining the morale of the craft. --- The Anti-Smith wing of the Democratic party in California are having a "heck" or a time finding a leader. Meridith has said, NO! McAdoo would rather direct from the rear; so it seems as if they will have to fall back on Senator Jim Reed, Missouri, who used to be rather wet. Don't know how some of the W. C. T. U. and other dry sisters will take it. Hoover is getting away from the barriers in good shape, but he has consented to negotiate a couple of difficult and dangerous hurdles. If he can beat Senator Willis over the sticks he may make the grade: Norris, Curtis, Hoover, Lowdow, Dawen. "It's even money that neither of them last for the finish. Senator Hiram Johnson has maneuvered the Boulder Dam bill into a stragetic position, and it bids fair to have an early and favorable consideration. The doughy Senator has made a grand fight in the face of discouraging odds. The Power Trust has maintained a powerful lobby. They desire to corral every possible natural resource that has a possibility of producing power. Senator Johnson has jousted with them and never broke a lance. California should be proud of its Senator, who, before entering the broader field of national politics, as Governor laid the basis of the humanitarian laws which placed California in the van of progressive commonwealths. --- Hundreds of young white men and their families have gone to the Negro Republic, Liberia, Africa, under contract to the Firestones who have a rubber concession from that government. How many young Negroes have qualified for sanitary engineers, civil engineers, and those professions which prepare for pioneering? The opportunity was there but—with all our pointing with pride—we were not prepared to enter the "open door." If the call had of been for any of the white collar professions, from poets down the line—lawyers, doctors, preachers and a few "what nots"—we could have spared a thousand or so without a perceptible thining of the ranks. Builders; Constructors; Men who dare—that, today, is the Negro's need. POLITICAL POT PIE The presidential primaries will be held on May 1st. In so far as the delegation is concerned all hands agree that it shall be a Hoover delegation and the national consequences are that it will be simply a matter of selecting from the many Hoover followers as to who will make up the personnel of California's contribution to the National Convention. All is quiet on the Patomac thus far along the line of the successor to Senator Hiram Johnson and it may be true that no opposition to the Senator succeeding himself will appear. They all say that the District Attorney Contest will be hot, red hot and heating up all the time. We are on the sideline looking ahead for the fireworks to be set off. C. H. Alston, doughty son of the Palmetto State avers there will be great happenings all along the line in the 73rd District. Assemblyman F. M. Roberts says that Editor J. B. Bass will contest for the nomination in the 74th Assembly district, and at the same time practically announces that he will also seek the 6th term. He goes farther and says there are several other aspirants. We begin to wonder just how many the wise old Owl has got up his sleeve and the source of this all-important information. . . . Speaking to our editor he informs us that he has no desire to launch a five months' campaign, but on and after time for the filing of nominations that he will be on the firing line presenting his case to the people or his district for their earnest consideration. He further states that he has no idea of monopolizing the field and all who will may run. That he will run upon his merits as a resident and business man of the 74th district for the past 17 years and at the proper time will in detail set forth in his platform the foundation upon which he will submit his claims to the people of the 74th District for their consideration and choice. Speaking of the banquet tendered to Hon. W. C. Matthews on last Thursday evening, there was no particular political significance attached thereto. However, during his address he told plainly the cause of the lack of activity by the National Committee out this way. Also possibly why we have failed to receive any tangible recognition thus far from a national standpoint. --- Public servants who stand still in their tracks are not in demand just now. We want men who will bring things to pass and if they fail to do so after due trial, they should give way and let someone else have an opportunity to do so. If they refuse to do this it is time for the people to move them. --- At a recent meeting of the clergy of our group composed of the leading pastors of our city, Supervisor Jack Bean received a unanimous vote of endorsement and that they were for him for any position to which he might aspire. In quite a discussion it is said that al hands agreed that Jack Bean came nearer rendering unto all peoples a square deal than any other man in public life. RIN-TIN-TIN SOON HERE IN "DOG OF THE REGIMENT" Manager Carpentier of the Lincoln Theatre announces the coming of Rin-Tin-Tin in "A Dog of the Regiment," a Warner Bros. production, March 5 for a run of 4 days. Rin-Tin-Tin was himself found in a devastated French village during the World War, and the story of his latest picture has many details similar to those he has enacted in real life. Among the thrills or "A Dog of the Regiment" are some flying stunts that will set the crowd rolling. Tom Gallery, Dorothy Gulliver and John Peters are in the cast. Ross Lederman directed. The story was written by Albert S. Howson, head of Warner Bros. scenario department, and retold for the screen by Charles R. Condon. "A Dog of the Regiment" is without George DIXON.

GEORGIA CLUB The Georgia Progressive Club met in their regular meeting Sunday, Feb. 12 at the home of the president, Mrs. J. L. Ramsey, 651 E. Santa Barbara. Owing to the illness of the president, the past president, Mr. A. L. Potts, took charge. A large number was present and on enjoyable time had by all. We wish our president a speedy recovery and hope to see her at our next meeting, Sunday, Feb. 26 at the home of Mrs. J. H. Session, 815 E. 33rd st. New members and visitors cordially invited, Mrs. Nettle Phillips, reporter. MUSICALE GIVEN BY MISS YOLANDA COLOMB An exceptionally fine Musicale was arranged by Mr. Wilkins, Curator of Music of the 46th and Central Avenue Studio, last Thursday, February 10th at the 52nd Place, residence of Miss Yolanda Colomb. The "piece de resistance" of the evening was the presentation of Mr. Wilkins' advanced pupil, Mr. Eugene Estes. It is the unanimous opinion of the guests assembled that Mr. Estes will achieve great distinction in the concert world. His rendition of Rachmaninoff's Prelude in C Minor, and Liszt's Melody of Love, will long be remembered, as well as the other selections which were also beautifully rendered. Among the guests were Mr. and Mrs. Holoman, Mrs. Butler, Dr. and Mrs. Pruitt, Mr. Oscar Polk; Miss A. DeLallade, Mrs. A. Colomb; Miss M. I. Colomb; Mrs. M. D. Luke; Mr. W. Iuffman (the well-known author); Mr. R. Williams; and Mrs. Mrs. T. Edwards; Miss Emma Lou Sayers and Mr. D. Floyd. Mrs. Brawley Receives Appointment Mrs. Brawley Receives Appointment The many friends of Mrs. Florence Marie Brawley are congratulating her upon her recent appointment to the position of music teacher in one of the large public schools of the L. A. system. Because of her very high rating, Mrs. Brawley ranked first of our group on the eligible list and was the first to receive appointment. Mrs. Brawley's ability along educational and musical lines has been clearly demonstrated in University circles here during which time, even with an overflow program of 15 and 19 hours work, she has established and maintained an average of B plus. Last semester, while completing requirements for her degree, she was assistant director of the Philharmonic Chorus, to Quire Coop, head of Music Dept., at U. C. L. A. This body of musicians rank high in the music world and consists of the best voices of the other group. It is needless to say that the honor accorded Mrs. Brawley in this was merited. The next appearance of the chorus will be with the Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, April 25 and 26. Aside from her general ability, Mrs. Brawley is blessed with a personality which will win for her many friends in her new field and knowing her as we do, we bespeak for her marvelous success in her work. Mrs. Brawley finds time to contact her many friends socially and keep books for her husband, F. T. Brawley, president and manager of the Tuskegee Cabinet Works, a thriving business here. Any afternoon after school hours, Mrs. Brawley may be seen driving her Nash sedan, a Christmas gift, from her husband, to take care of some business for him. Judge Joseph Marchetti, who attracted wide attention during 1925, as being the youngest judge in the country has resumed the private practise of the law, after announcing that he "does not choose to run" for office in 1928. This talented young jurist's work while serving on the bench, demon- 10 strated his splendid adaptation to the legal profession. His decisions were outstanding examples of his keen insight, his ability and his fairness in weighing every case tried before his court. A graduate of Southern California University of Law, Judge Marchetti is also well qualified, because of his trict attorney and former judge of the Justice Court, to efficiently handle any legal tangles which may be entrusted to him. A splendid student of law in all its various phases, he is further added in his profession, by his ability to speak fluently in several languages. Judge Marchetti, son of a pioneer Los Angeles family, is a veteran of the World War an da member of many fraternal and other organizations, including the American Legion, Shriners, Elks, Breakfast Club, Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, Counsel for the Promotion of Boy's Work, Italian Chamber, of Commerce, and many others. To a man or his standing, who has acquired such great prestige in the early part of his life, his many friends may be assured that his outlook in the field of law precise can mean only the most brilliant success. His offices are located in a handsome suite in the new Security Title and Insurance Building at 6th and Grand. HENDERSON AND HENDER SON EXPANDS BUSINESS PROGRAM BY OPEN- ING STORE NO. 2 The Henderson & Henderson Hasbenders who have so successfully conducted other business sair 12th and Central ave, have opened up a new and pretentious store at 2327 Central Ave. The new store is quite an improvement to this section of the city and will without question be a success. The firm is to be congratulated upon its progress, the proprietors are real units in the march of progress along business lines and highly deserving of the support of the public. Miss Francis Henderson will be in charge of the newest addition while Mr. George Henderson will personally conduct store No. 1 at 12th and Central Ave. Friday.

A. A. C. P. Mrs. Patton has been assigned as a special in Domestic Science and Economics.

Taylor prominent and one of the best known citizens of the Sun Flower State after a three months visit with his niece Mrs. E. B Cerutti returned to his home at Topeka Kansas over the Santafe. While here Mr. Taylor was highly entertained by relatives and friends, notably his daughter Mrs. Hortense Colly, his niece Mrs. Allie Taylor and friends galore. The evening before, his departure he was the dinner guest to his old time friend and associate Editor J. B. Bass at the Bass Apartment where a most enjoyable evening was spent. "THE SIGN POST" The Standard Tailors through their announcement, bring new hope to the bachelors, business and professional man. No longer is he compelled, from lack of time, sister or wife, to go without pockets in his trousers, coats, etc., neither will he be called upon to pay the price of a new suit of clothes for a few minor repairs. The high class Standard Tailors, 1402 Central Avenue, has established a precedent unequaled by others in our midst. Think of it! Four (4) suits cleaned, pressed, repocketed, rebuttoned, and similar other minor repairs for $1.50 per month.

THE BLACK SPORT THROUGH THE EYES OF HAMILTON ART The Jacksons had a big time in San Bernardino last Thursday night. Both Vernon and Babe Jackson won their fights hands down. Vernon, the L. A. featherweight fought the main event against Jack Burns and his namesake Babe Jackson of Redlands fought the windup bout against Duke Hoffman. "The Fighting Band Boy" fought a masterful fight against Burns, winning 6 out of 8 rounds, Tiger Jack taking one and one was a toss-up. Vernon Jackson is one of the sweetest featherweights in this neck of the woods and he proved it against Burns, a rushing, furious boxer who fights every minute. For the first 4 rounds Vernon stood in the middle of the ring and let Burns come to him. This proved disastrous for the boy from the Hudkins stable, because Jackson punched his head off with short, choppy rights. In the fifth round, Burns got the jump on "The Fighting Band Boy" and rushed him into a corner and started pounding away with both hands. At this stage Vernon proved that he was a ring general above par. As Tiger Jack rushed into Jackson, the "Band Boy" started weaving and bobbing and from then on the Tiger did not lay a glove on him. You can talk about your flock of good feathers in and around Los Angeles, but take it from me, until you have seen Vernon Jackson fight you have missed half your life. Vernon just has the squared circle's "IT," he makes you go away talking to your self. A Fighter. No Fooling The battle between Babe Jackson and Duke Hoffman was short and sweet. Duke rushed out to finish Jackson with a punch, but Babe thought otherwise. He pulled Hoffman into a clinch and went to it. As they came out of their hug Babe steadied Hoffman with his left and let him have it with his right, and that was all for that night, for the lights went out for the Duke. Ed Duvall, well known sportsman of San Bernardino has turned fight manager. Duvall has four boys in his stable ranging from a flyweight to a middleweight. The little wee fellow is "Chalky" Al Wright tipping the scales at 112 pounds. Johnny Ried, a long, lanky boy weighing 131 seems to be the best at 112 pounds. m ETAO T the best of the lot. Ried has a snappy left and a murderous right. Mack, Lockard, the middleweight tips the Fairbanks at 160 in fighting condition. Lockard isn't much with foot work and a left hand, but carries thunder in his right paw. Wright and Lockard crawl through the ropes at San Bernardino as we go to press, to make their debut before the home town fans. BY: JAMES S. HARRIS. Jr. LOW DOWN ON THE TENNIS FANS Ex-Champion Wendell Gladden is still around and about. Wonder when he will take out that old battle axe of his and start to wage war again? "Wee" Phil Davis is constantly seen burning up the road in the vicinity of Lincoln Park in his cleavy little "Rick." Yes, he participates every Sunday morning in a peppy game of tennis in order to work up the appetite of a tremendous magnitude which he possesses. We are hoping in the future to perceive such oldtimers as Marion Forsythe, Bob and Alva Garrot, Joe Oeliver, Joe Broyles, "Big" Bill Clark, Bill Tatum, Ed. Carlyle, Tom Reed, Wendell Gladden, Byron Kinner, Ed. Myers, Ray Matthews and many others come forth and call out every "tub" line up to do battle once again. What an eventful day it will be! It would be indeed gratifying to behold the one time "scrappy" Bai Kemp who retired an illustious, idolized, undetected champion, back in action displaying that innate power of agility or his again, wouldn't it? "High powered" King James Stocks is seen warning up the old concrete net battle field quite often. More power, Jim. Word comes from the "Bay" region that "Shiek" Ed. Myers, a Los Angeles tennis product, has things in a whir in tennis activities up there. It is said he has almost perfected his "cannon-ball" serve. Questionnaire to be Conducted The writer has consented to conduct a Questionnaire in this column each week, for an indebtable length of time.

LAMAR U. S. C. Basketball team defeats U. C. L. A. 45 to 45. This victory by U. S. C. almost climbs the championship of the Southern portion of the Coast Championship for them. They have two more games scheduled with the Branch and should take at least one of the two. Sickness among Colored athletes brings grief to coaches at U. C. L. A. Two whom considerable hopes could have pinned on, are shot. High hopes were held for Ken Levy until he developed a heart and doctors found that weak. Newell Eason had just coped the interclass boxing championship when his eyes went gafoose. The Avenue Rejoiced When Ace Beat Baker The Avenue Rejoiced When Ace Beat Baker You can always judge how well liked a fighter is by how popular he is with other races besides his own. By this check-up there is no fighter in the game not even the colored ones more popular along the "Avenue" than Ace Hudkins. First, because he is a fighter who fight, clean, fair, square. Second, because the big fortune he has made has never swelled his head; on the street, in the gym, at home, he is the same "Ace." For that matter so are all the Hudkins boys. So as the battle went on last week in New York andious groups awaited the news and when the news came—"Hudkins Wins," a cheer went up for the Nebraska Wild-Cat. ACE THE NEXT CHAMPION That new snappy, lightning-fast left jab that Ace has developed and used against Baker will be effective against Dundee when they meet and will carry him on to victory. He will beat Dundee and be the greatest welterweight champion yet. Willie Henry Hurls The Challenge WANTS BLACK OR WHITE LIGHT HEAVIES Seemingly getting the run-around by the light-heavyweights of the Coast. Willie Henry, the "Texas Steer" is getting; desperate. "I do not intend to fight a colored opponent if I could help it, only because unless there is a knock-out people say "friends", etc., but as the best white stars of the Coast are always 'closed for the season' when I call on them I will fight the best colored light-heavyweight or heavyweight up to 190 pounds and guarantee to knock him out. That goes for anybody, anywhere." Henry only weighs 175 lbs. but all he promises to do is straight goods. Sissle and Blake Separate; Blake Plans London Show (By: A. N. P.) New York, N. F., Feb. 21.—Noble Sissle of the famus team of Sissle and Blake is planting a London show to be presented if the very near futur. Mr. Sissle's personal representative, Harold E. Tillotson, has left New York for London with the intention of making all the necessary arrangements preparatory to bringing over a troupe of colored performers. Sissle wrote and staged the prologue to Universal's picture, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," now running on Broadway. Tillotson stated, prior to his departure, that the famous team has been disbanded and that Eubie Blake, now appearing on Broadway with Broadway Jones, and Sissle have permanently separated.

Local Actor Admired Beverly Hills, California, February 16, 1928. MR. CURTIS NERO, Orange Grove Theatre, Los Angeles. Pardon, this liberty please, as I do not write to movie actor or radio announceres, but ever since I attended Kongo, "Fuzzy, good man," "Fuzzy, good man"—has been ringing in my ears and always, I can see your beautiful body—and graceful lithe movements—so unusual in a man your size. Your acting was wonderful. No one on earth could surpass you in this part, and never have I seen a man with so superb a body—so big and so strong—still beautiful to behold—not heavy, knotty muscles—or coarse—but beautiful—graceful and artistic. Truly God was good to you—and I'm wishing I had a picture of you as you appeared in Kongo. I'd like to try to paint it myself, if I had a photo. Of course I couldn't expect you to pose, but anyhow, I wonder if you could supply the photo to a sincere admirer and I know you are too busy to pose anyhow. And here's wishing for you a success you deserve and I'm predicting it. HELEN MILLS. Noted Sportsman Makes Great Spread on The Coast A staff writer for the "Soaring Eagle" on a recent visit to San Diego met Jay Gould, known throughout the length and breadth of the country as a sportsman and keen judge of horse flesh and gleaned from him many interesting episodes of his experiences in his wide and varied travels. Jay declared among other things that his Miss 1928 dance given at the Blue Lantern Hall, Jan. 30, was a decided success, playing to a capacity house. Mr. Gould, known everywhere as Jay, is known everywhere there are race tracks. During the summer times he follows the ponies as far East as Saratoga, Chicago, Omaha, Kentucky, Eastern Canada, Kansas City and then back to San Diego the land of sunshine and flowers. He has been coming to the coast for the last four or five years and is expecting to make his headquarters here next winter. He recently entertained Mr. Reese DuPree of New York and a party of his friends on Mr. DuPree's recent trip to San Diego. When in San Diego get acquainted with Jay by calling at the Douglass Hotel or phone Main 6742. BY: SADIE NERO DAVIDSON Author of "Making Life Count" ETIQUETTE OF MANNERS Graceful manners, says Longfellow, are the outward form or refinement in the mind and good affections in the heart. Manners, says Emerson, are the happy ways of doing things: Manners are more important than laws. According to their quality they aid morals, they supply them or they totally destroy them. A few don'ts in etiquette of manners: Do address a young lady by her surname, don't say "Miss Annie." Do apologize if you tread upon or stumble against anyone. Don't fall to notice elderly people. Don't have the habit of "grinning," a smile or a laugh is proper in place. Don't clean your care or your nose nor trim and clean your finger-nails in public. Don't use a forced laugh while in conversation. Don't gape in company. Don't laugh boisterously. Don't be inquisitive about the affairs of even your most intimate friend. Don't go untidy on the plea that everybody knows you. Don't be too positive. Don't expect too much from other people, but encourage them to expect a great deal from you. Don't be over-familiar. A lady should always have an escort after night fall for safety and as a matter of etiquette. A lady should conduct herself on the street in such a manner as not to attract attention. Don't repeat gossip. Don't contradict people even if you are sure you are right. Don't walk with slovenly sait. The modern, well-bred man and woman, whatever their faith will conform to these four principles: Silence, Attentiveness, Participation and Cardiality, for they realize they are the best church-etiquette. Don't Don't forget good manners in anything or in all places. Life, like an echo, always gives us back what we send out. If we laugh, we hear a shout—if we cry, there echoes back a wall. But if we sing there is an answering melody—and if we love, our world fairly reverberates with loving voices. **DIDN'T MEAN HIM** A. B—So the L. A. Gas Co. is taking on Negro help now isn't it? H. L—Yes, that is true. A. B—Are you going to try to get on? H. L—Oh, they're only hiring laborers. **J'EVER** "Just one more glass boys, and then we'll all go home," said the dishwasher as he laid down the soap. **GO'UP, JOHNNIE** Teacher: Johnnie, what month has twenty-eight days? Johnnie: All of them. MISUNDERSTOOD HIM Agent: Married or single? Applicant: Married. Agent: Where were you married? Applicant: I don't know. Agent: Don't know where you were married? Applicant: Oh, I beg your pardon, I thought you said, why. NOT A BAD IDEA A man seeing an Irishman show bibulous appearance, remarked: "Pat, what makes your nose so red?" "Shure." replied Pat, "it's the re- flection of me soul." "The reflection of your soul? What do you mean?" "Shure, it's the reflection of me soul," retorted Pat. "It's glowing wid pleasure at me ability to 'tend to me own business." Who could want a better epitaph than this: "He kept his tears to himself and shared his laughter with others."

It is pointed dut that: statistic- fans estimate that fully. 27,000 deaths will result from automobile accidents this year. : “The, number of thage who are un- fitted to-drive cars but: who are daily sitting behind the wheels of automo- ybiles, is tar greater than Js generally supposed,” declares “This factor really, should. ct greater attention from the.authorittes than tt has. in the past, “The: time: has; como when. stricter regulations should be enforced, in. or- ‘der to see: that only.thesp-drive care who are mentally aud-physieally fitted to:tiandié:them.: Mec areeti tae by:any medns @ mere’: trick phrase, Anyone who gives the) matter’ «ny ‘study. and thoughit at alii: will’ soon tee te ae oe in, tar ereater numbers than 2 they iheteubingl kameeabiie’ 2a bocce and cfeasing; automobile hould be one-of the. very first’ States in the Union to undertake a compreken sive study of thecpubject: A commiss: fon, should’ be-appointed. by the “Gor: ernoy, let waaay, whiebi will make-s caretal stay of the whole subgeet or er a perlodof twa years. pe “At the om@.of that time it shouldbe in a position''to make recommends tions for legistation that ‘woult go far toward reduting,the uumber of auto mobite fatalities inthis State. “It ia not too mueb to say that many of the ‘hiténd-tun’ accidents that: are so frequent in all the larger cities of the State are due to the ‘motor moron. Of course, many of htem also are due to the ‘drunk driver’ and also crimin: als teeing from feared arrest after the commission of a crime, “It is sad commentary on the laws of Califormig that a twelve-yeanold mind in a thirty-fiveyearold body ts able to obtain a driver's license.

The statement was made before two hundred white business men at a meeting in thé Hotel Ls Salle ¢alled by Silas H. Strawn, presi dent of the American Bar Association to discuss the crime situation in the clty. Critics of Mr. Gore, while not arm: ed with the statistics which he claim ed to quote, are outspoken in’ thei condemnation of his statement with cut qualifying explanations. ‘There are many conditions which lead to the record) of Negroes. in the police sta tons according to Negro leaders. The political influence which keeps a large percentage of white crime from being booked! does not operate in the case of Negtoes whose delinquencies there fore become part of the record. Again the great influx of people from all types from states where colored peo ple are notoriously underprivileged gives Chicago and Illinots a seeming record for misdoing that ought to be charged’ to. Alabama, Mississippi Georgia, and the other states from which these perpetrators come, claim these social workers and probation of fictals who are studying the’ situation ‘with the hope of refuting Mr. Gore's claim. WHAT CHICAGO LAWYERS THINK OF NEGROES*AND CRIME Colored lawyers, practicing in the courts of Chicago, are disposed to ex tenuate in their comment upog the speech made by Edward Bf Gore for mer, president of the Chicago Crime Commission, before a large group Oo! Chicago business men, in respect t the Negro's relation to Chicago crime Mr. Gore cited commission statistics to show that whereas the Negro cox stituted only six per cent of the city’s Population, he contributed forty per cont of the crimes of all kinds. Atty. Alonso B. Tansi, former as sistant state's attorney, believes: that whatever truth there ‘is in Gore's statement is due to the fact that Ne- groes in greater numbers than white are booked for felonious crimes based upon flimsy circumstances and trifor- mation. When an inadequate showink of probate cause is shown, the judge usually takes jurisdiction, the state's attorney acquiesces to the waiving of a felony. and the Negro defendant is permitted to enter a plea of guilty to a misdemeanor, the finding for which is entered on the record. Improvement of this condition, Atty. Tansil believes, will only come when these Negro defendants have’ the proper counsel. Atty, C. C. Wimbish calls attention to the fact that statistics are compiled from the records of convictions, that crime is organized among whites and that whenever a member of the crime organization falls into the hands of the law, adequate funds for defense are available and efficient legal repre- sentation is often proviously maintain- ed’to throw between the alleged crim- inal and conviction every technicality of the law that money, pull, and influ ence can produce. Furthermore, fudi- cial discretion is often tised, and the judges, with one-exeeption, are white. Assistant Corporation Counsel, Wil- liam H, Temple: believes: that the un- derlying cause for the high percentage of crime committed by Negroes is the poor *housin| conditions, -econgmie ‘de- pression, and unwholesome environ: ment. These conditions, -he indicates, world and do bring about a wave a crime In any race or nationality. The question of oue race being any more criminal than another is. fallacious, byt there is |a question of any and all races reactigg or giving the same re- notion to oaytronent, eddeation, abd financial stress.

College, Greens. boro, N. C., prior to launching a new building program for the Arkansas School for which the State Legislature has recently made a large appropria ‘tion. The Arkansas party was joined at Tuskegee by representatives from the Alabama Department of Education headed by Dr. R. E. Tidwell, superin- tendent. Welcoming the visitors to Tuskegee Institute, Dr. Robert K.

This neglect by no means: deliberate, de- prived the Negro of the military train- ing ‘essential to‘his eapabl handling himself in time of possible | war with any degree of credit to himself and to his country.” Sergeant Reynolds pointed ‘out that the Act set the peace time strength ot the Regular Army at 118,597, of vwhioh mumber there are only 4,032 Negines. Of this total number of col- ‘ored: trops, the sergeant declares; “It is ertirely safe to say that mot more than 8,000 of these considered! as com- bat troops, the others performing du- ties of non-combatant natufe. Thus we find,” he said, “representing the 12,090,000 people, approximately ten per cent of the country’s. population, not more than 3,000 combat troops in the Regular Army, who could be count- ed on through traiping to sefve as first line of defense in case iof emer- gcney. This number is considerably below the number of troops employed in the Regular Army beforel the Na- tional Defense Act became al law and Brior to the World War.” SAME CONDITION. EXISTS IN NATIONAL ARMY} Turning to the Nation's second line of defense, the National Guard, Ser- geant Reynolds finds the same con- dition exists. “An analysis) of the various National Guard units," de- claréd: Sergeant Reynolds, “will show that there are 2,951 Negroea om the roster of the National Guard Units.” “It is obvious,” be pointed obit, “that with only 6,000’ representatives in the combat class taking training, that the colored man is wholly unprepared to render his country efficient serviee in the event of a wartime emergency. It would take from eight to ten’ months to train and equip an army jof any size, drawn from 12,000,000 Negroes which would be expensive as well as unfair to the country. NEGROES SHOULD OPPOSE THIS CONDITION After efting the difference between the warfare of today and that of the carly 90's, Sergeant Reynolds urged that Negroes get busy to remedy this unfavorable condition and to. take steps to increase the number! of Ne- gro troops in the Regular Army and the National Guard, pointing out that it war was dectared the Negroes would be subject to call and would perhaps make a bad showing in. comparison with individuals and groups wHo haye had military training in (te National Guard Units and the Citizen Military p sepeMy
