BAGNALL AT SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH—Cor. 24th Street and Griffith Avenue—SUNDAY, JUNE 3rd --- 2:30 P.M. 1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1928 DEDICATE NEW CHURCH AT VENICE THE EDITOR The Wonder Pastor of the First Baptist Church, Venice THE HOLY SEPULCHRINE CATHEDRAL VOLUME 41 DEDICATE NEW C REV. J. W. The Wonder Pastor of the STATELY AND BEAU TIFUL TEMPLE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH AT VENICE COMPLETED California boasts of many beautiful church edifices and justly so, for within the confines of this great sovereign state each succeeding church architect is ambitious to produce a superior product to what has already been produced. It therefore, seems quite probable that Mr. Paul R. Williams, who designed and superintended the building of the Venice First Baptist Church, combined all of his genous in his sphere to erect for Venice what we consider, the last word in church building. True there are many more gigantic, more stately, but there are few, indeed, more ornate or more striking from both the exterior and interior, by way of a church edifice than the new church home of the First Baptist Church, founded in 1912, located on the corner of Westminster Street and 7th Avenue in Venice, the beach surburban city of Los Angeles, giving a most splendid view, the building of Spanish design stucco materials, loom up as an outstanding product of architecture. On entering by way of large and comfortable steps to a broad varanda, large swinging double doors, one views the interior and the striking decorative embellishments which combine and show that the artists have given their very best touch to this feature of the building and, instead of sameness in church decoration, we find a combination between church and theatre, which, to the eye, is most pleasing and the departure really improves and at the same time produces and effect which meets a hearty approval. A spacious auditorium, pulpit, choir stand, and baptismal fountain are before your eyes. Large and massive windows with cathedral design and glass, greet your eyes. The Sunday School room is in proportion and can be opened into the auditorium to care for overflow crowd. The ladies rest room, kitchen, fully equipped, all in keeping with the structure itself which spells the last word in church building. FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.

Likely, on this day his appointed Bert McDonald to the position as one of the Assistants in his office. This is a step forward and recognition to all classes of Mr. Likely's constituency, for up to this time the group of which Mr. McDonald is a part has never enjoyed official recognition in this particular office. Mr. McDonald is a young attorney, a graduate of the U. S. C. law school and has been associated with Attorney Willis O. Tylier in the practice of law. Mr. Likely had under consideration two young attorneys for this position, Attorney Lewis K Books and Mr. McDonald, it was reported that Mr. Books could not make the sacrifice to accept the position and as a consequence Mr. McDonald was appointed within opposition. We congratulate Mr. McDonald on his new field of enforc and Prosecutor Likely on his broad gauged policy of the square deal along the line of political recognition. ANNOUNCEMENT Sunday, June 10th, from 4 to 6 p.m. the Page Studio located at 1687 W. 35th Street, will receive the public at its-grand opening. Some of Los Angeles music geniuses will join Mr. Eugene Edgar Page and his sister, Miss Anita Page, both talented musicians in making this on outstanding musical event of the season. Prominent Californian Passes Away In Chicago Prominent Californian Passes Away In Chicago Mr. E. W. Winters, prominent citizen and capitalist of Bakersfield, California, passed away during a visit to the General Conference held in Chicago, was one of California's pioneer business men. He was held in the highest respect by all who knew him. He has accumulated valuable property in Bakersfield, being the owner of the Winters block, one of the choice corners in the heart of the city, also lived in one of the finest homes in that city and owned other valuable property. He was a leader in church and traternal circles. The body passed through Los Angeles last Tuesday en route to Bakersfield. A huge crowd was at the depot to pay their respects. Mr. Winters was a personal friend of the owners of this publication and we join in, with sorrow and regret at his passing, and our love and sympathy go out to his, a grief stricken widow in this sad hour of sorrow. Charged with seriously wounding two Compton Police Officers, Noelle Robinson, 18 year old youth of 1026½ East Fourteenth Street, was lodged in the county jail early Sunday morning. The three colored officers, Detective Lieut, Kimbrough, Broady and Scott, effected his capture after being on the case less than two hours. They found Robinson hiding in a vacant barn, in an open field, near 5414 and Fortune Street. Considerable stealth and cleverness on the part of the arresting officers was employed in order to prevent Robinson shooting it out with them. Robinson is said to have fired point blank at Motorecycle officer C. J. Andrews hitting him in the right shoulder. Capt. of Police, W. C. DeWitter, attempting to come to his rescue, who met in the same fashion, the bullet striking him in the chest. A companion of Robinson, Irving Bartlow, was captured at the scene of the shooting, by one of the wounded officers. SPEAKING ABOUT THE FORUM We noted a garbled report in the columns of a local newspaper as to what went on a the Forum. From reading it one would think, there was some sort of near riot. The trouble is, one must be acquainted with the Forum and its personality in order to judge its temper. The publisher of this paper is proud of his membership in that body and we never dodge comers, our stand is always certain and sure. If Editor Roberts wanted to help Mr. Olivier he should stand on his feet and do so. We took no part one way or the other with any discussion in which the gentleman was repudiated, in fact we were not present when the matter was before the body. We are a member and active attendant upon the Forum every Sunday in the year if in the city. To correctly judge the trend of things one must be present at other times than preceding an election at the polls. Will Open Store Soon An enthusiastic membership meeting of the Pyramid Co-operative Association, was held at Tubernacle Baptist Church on Hemlock Street last Thursday night, adding many new members to its fold. According to Mr. Wm. Nickerson Jr. who is president or the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company, as soon as the organisation completes its first unit of membership, which will be in the next few weeks, it will open its first store. PARKRIDGE COUNTRY CLUB OPENS IN GLORY OF SPLENDOR BY: HARRY LEVETTE With the typical California sunshine shedding a golden glory on the scene, the magnificent PARKRIDGE COUNTRY CLUB opened at Corona as an outstanding event in the history of the group on the Western Coast. After nearly a year of strenuous work on the part of Mr. Journee White, Clarence R. Bailey and Dr. Eugene C. Nelson, owners, this million dollar beauty spot was sold, complete, with all its wonderful features for $293,000.00 and the deed delivered while 5000 guests Luvenia Harper Patterson Luvenia Harper Patterson Teacher of Plano, and organist of the Second Baptist Church, corner of 24th and Griffith, announces the opening of her Plano Studio at 1400 East 42nd Street.

Mothers who desire their children to study under Mrs. Patterson should have them to register immediately at her studio at 1400 E. 42nd Street. Telephone HUmbolt 1614-W. HEAR BAGNALL Robt. W. Bagnall, Director of Branches for the National N. A. A. C. P. will be the principal speaker at the big mass meeting to be held at the 2nd Baptist Church, Sunday afternoon at 2:30 P. M. This meeting is conducted for the popularity contest, and will be for the benefit of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. Dr. Bagnall is recognized as one of the most forceful and eloquent speakers in this country and it will indeed be a rare treat to hear him speak upon the accomplishments of the N. A. A. C. P. He comes to assist the local branch in its preparation for the Annual National Conference. He will also conduct a membership drive of which the goal will be 10,000 members. More workers are needed and asked for. The big chorus is going over big but to make it even greater Prof. Elmer Bartlett is calling for more voices Stand by the N. A. A. C. P. KIDDIES MINSTREL AT LABOR TEMPLE JUNE 4TH Because the affair went over so big, the Kiddies Minstrel will be repeated Monday, June 4th at Labor Temple, 5thand Maple. This is your last chance to see them perform. So if you missed the first one or want to see it again, here's your chance. The Kiddies are really clever in their portrayal of songs and dances and this (talent is brought out by that peer or directresses, Mrs. Lauretta looked smilingly on as the Kinogram and three other Newsreel cameras clicked off the film history. From early in the morning long lines of motor cars crowded the road leading through Fullerton and Corona, to the wonderful estate among the rolling hills that constituting the Parkridge Country Club. At the scheduled time the "History in the making" that will be remembered long as an extraordinary Memorial Day, began with the announcement, by Jimmy Smith and the publicity staff that the actual transfer of the property, from its former who owners to its present owners would be made. Filing in, led by Atty. Meyrick, who performed the transaction they arranged themselves around the table on which was spread the deeds, contracts and other papers, necessary for the completion of the transfer. Following their introduction and the signing of the paper editor J. B. Bass of this publication was introduced as the speaker of the day. With sounding, well-chosen words, he extolled the mark of progress the acquisition of this recreation spot showed. The wholesome enjoyment so necessary as a foil to daily labor, the quickened interest, the valuable friendships, the improvement gained by enlarged contacts, the value derived from its atmosphere of refinement and aesthetic surroundings combined with the opportunity for healthful out-door sports for the up-building of vitality, all were pointed out by him as one of the most important episodes that have occurred in the lives of Southern California citizens. "They said locomotives would not run, but they did; airplanes would not fly, yet they do; radio would not breathe our spoken thoughts through the invisible ether, but it did and so Parkridge stands as another contradiction that race will not acquire the things it feels the need of," so dramatically exclaimed the speaker as cheer after cheer greeted his words. At the close of his speech, like animate flowers representing the ideal of beauty and grace in Afro-American womanhood, the contestants in the $5000 Beauty Contest marched to the lawn in front of the long veranda and filed around the enclosure as the battery of movie cameras ground away and dozens of press and private Kodaks clicked. The white judges from Hollywood, number directors and stars, and Mr. Bass, then fairly and impartially made their selection after long deliberation, and elimination, awarded the sports costume prize to Miss Ellen, Cushman. The nationally discussed first prize in the bathing beauty contest was awarded to Miss Mildred Boyd, winner in the Pacific Beach contest of 1925. Miss Flora Washington was second Miss Eunie Farrington third and Misses Juanna Creighton, Ruth Edmondson, Roselle Lincoln, Verna Lewis, Ethel Boyd, Josephine Seymour, and Billian Greenaway in the order named. The cups were handed each winner while arrangements were made for the additional prizes which were $500 in cash and a $1500 bungalow to 2nd, while additional cash prizes, stage and movie contracts completed the $5000 in which all the rest had part. The rest of the day was spent by the happy throng roaming over the grounds playing golf and tennis, enjoying the out door plunge visiting the rifle range bungalows dining halls and the many other features while busy officials signed many members in registrationcahapos tioeacabido elec s in registration on the club roster. When the last guest had rolled down the hill towards town and old Glory that had rippled all day from the lofty mast had been lowered, a wonderful day had come to a close. Butler. It was Mrs. Butler's ides, a few years ago, that the kiddies, properly trained, would be able to put over just as good a minstrel show as the grown ups. Putting her thoughts into action, she proved it! So take it from those who know and be among the first arrivals at Labor Temple, Monday, June 4th. IN FIGHTING Segregation on the hypothesis of Americanism, we do it with no feeling of prejudice or antagonism towards any individual or group of individuals within our own group. We firmly believe that thought is the power that rules the world, hence it is our desire to so direct our thoughts that they will have tendency to help others to reach a higher plane of living and thinking. WE NEED LEADERSHIP—Yes, the right sort of leadership, and this does not mean that we should assassinate what we have, but help them to be bigger men, who will realize that in the development of our group we have no time for petty skirmishes. What we need is conscientious and concerted effort in building a race. For my part, I wish to state to the dear public, that I have not had time to even wipe the dust from my own eyes to say nothing about throwing dust in the other fellow's eyes. I prefer to bequest to those who come after me, a record of toil dedicated to the cause of payin' my just debts—to fight with all my night, not in a spirit of bitterness, but with a heart full of love, those conditions about us which tend to discourage the youth of our group, and to so direct my business efforts in this community that at the close, if I have not erected something I will at least have helped to lay a foundation for better business relations between my group and other groups in this great State. Selah. WE ARE WATCHING with interest the outcome of the case of Geraldine Broodway, foster daughter of Mrs. Victoria Jacquet of Bell, California, who was set upon last week by three of the younger members of the K. K. and badly beaten. We also want to know what the Mutual Dairy Association is going to do concerning its insult to two members of our group numbered among the Associations' patrons. And again, we say that we spend much time fighting each other while the real enemy of our progress stands, as it were, like the devil in the great German drama, "Faust." grinning as he awaits another opportunity to plunge his deadly fangs of prejudice and discrimination into our sides, further crippling our economic progress. WE ARE publishing a spontaneous expression received from Mr. S. B. W. May, giving herewith our appreciation for his recognition of our efforts. Los Angeles, California, 3517 S. Central Ave. May 30th, 1928. Mrs. Charlotta A. Base, Managing Editor California Eagle, 847 Central Ave. Los Angeles, Calif. My dear Mrs. Bass: I read the recent discussion pro and con in reference to your Blitmore dinner invitation. I have read with interest what the opposite side had to state and also read with interest your side of the case. I have been a reader of the California Eagle for more than nine years in Los Angeles. I have read your editorials at all times. I have read the column especially written by yourself entitled "On the Sidewalk," where you have, from time to time, given publicity to different businesses operated by our group in Los Angeles (I notice though that you stopped at 32nd and Central. All business south of that have not been mentioned) and have noted your recommendations and suggestions where those who are at present engaged in business might be more successful and where you have suggested new kinds of businesses that my one of our group with the ability might engage in and operate successfully and profitably. All of these years that I've read your paper, I've paid special attention at all times to your fairness and your broad-mindedness in all things pertaining to the welfare and well-being of the group of people which you are one of them. On many occasions in the past I have noted where others have tried and were successful, in some cases, in putting an unfair deal over you. I have given this so much thought and consideration that I have come to believe that your mind is one of the fairest and most intelligent that we have on these Western shores of the Pacific ocean, and because of this belief, after much consideration, I cannot help from believing all you had to say in the recent discrimination in which you (attempted on Page Seven) (Continued on Page Seven) LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, MAY 25, 1928 --- --- TENNIS CLATTER BY: JAMES S.

Alton' Redd's Orchestra At Tivoli Another Colored band has proved its worth and has gotten booked at a theatre. This orchestra is Alton Redd's Pards of Pepper and, as the name implies, they are really RED HOT. They play at the Tivoli Theatre every Sunday. They have worked at this theatre off and on for the past year. They have been in such demand and the people have requested so many extra numbers, that the management has put them on regularly—to play every Sunday. The boys are all accomplished musicians and full of vim and pop. Alton Redd, manager and drummer, is considered one of the hottest drummers in the business today. Go out and hear this band play "music that's sure hot" some Sunday. HUGE PERSONNEL FACES CAMERAS AT BIG-STUDIO Twelve motion pictures are in course of production at the Paramount studios in Hollywood, with stars and featured casts aggregating approximately 125 noted actors and actresses and bit players and extras that add far more than a thousand to the total. In the Ernst Lubitsch production starring Emil Jannings, "The Patriot." over 1,000 extras were used in some of the more spectacular scenes alone. Production of this lavish vehicle is progressing rapidly and it will shortly be ready for world premier showing. Others near completion include: "The Magnificent Flirt," starring Florence Vidor, "His Tiger Lady," starring Adolphe Menjou, who completed his part of the work just before his recent departure for Europe, "Half a Bride," starring Esther Ralson, the Zane Gray Western, "The Tiger," starring John Moriarty, Holt and "Ladies of the Mob," the William Wellman production starring Clara Bow in a dramatic underworld characterization. "The Waman From Moscow," starring Pola Negri, is another of the films now being made at Paramount, and also "Hot News," in which Bebe Daniels plays the exciting role of a news reel camera girl. "The First Kiss," the first Fay Wray and Gary Cooper co-starring picture, is being filmed at a location in Maryland. "The White Sin," formerly titled "The Parfumed Trap," is another before the cameras, with Clive Brook, Mary Brian and William Powell in the atlantic cast. Production on three others has just started: "Beggars of Life" with Wallace Beery and Richard Arlen and Louise Brooks, "Just Married," the Anne Nichols story co-starring Ruth Taylor and James Hall, and the Zane Gray special "The Water Hole," a film being made partly in technicolor which features Jack Holt.

This week's presentation was simply wonderful! Besides having for its mirthful entertainment a side- splitting comedy/drama, there was in- troduced and interwoven into the plot of the story, something of tremendous sociological value. This was the crushing eternal triangle. You know, a husband, a wife and a friend. This play also brought to light some erstwhile hidden talent. We saw all of the cast strut their stuff. We hardly recognized Lottie Gee as the sentient. Edith Spencer wouldn't quit playing the female lead as the faltering wife. Marcus Slayer seemed so dutting and trustful as the husband, we felt right sympathetic for him, it seemed so real. The rest of the triangle was supplied by Quintard Miller. Speed like the boy had considerable experience too. I know. Now, guess who played the title role—Hannah Gilli De Gaston. Can you beat that? It couldn't have been played better by any other. The real surprise came from Amon Davis playing the husband of Hannah in which role he won a place that sank deep into the hearts of the Lincoln rans. He did a little monologue from "Emperor Jones" that went over big. Emma Hawkins certainly knows how to sing the blues. More please. Now, there isn't any chance to overlook Mosby's Blues Blowers during these presentations, because they supply right tight music. Everybody at the Lincoln's rarin' to go. I say, let 'em tear out.

That isn't too many. We can't get too many men of knowledge. No, the professions are not going to be over crowded either. It isn't written down in the books that all of those who graduate law colleges are bound to be successful candidates before the bar examiners. In the past year, two of the leading attorneys of the race passed away here in Los Angeles. It will probably take ten years for some of the present young practicing lawyers to reach the eminence to which they had attained. We can see now, that a class of a mere eight candidates is not as collosal as some of our chronic skeptics claim it to be. Among those to take the exams are: Leon Whittaker and Erskine Raeland.

Every one of them stand high in footlight ranks of the theatres back east and a perusal of their former activities before bringing a historic musical gift to old L.

It was by far one of the greatest affairs ever pulled off by any one of the many units. The hall was filled to overflowing and enthusiasm ran to the highest possible stage. It was one big evening and events followed one another throughout the evening which lasted until the morning. After a time devoted to short adresses by Editor F. C. Williams of the Pacific Defender, J. B. Base of the California Eagle, Wm. Nickerson, Jr of the Golden State Insurance Company and Charles Connor of the Connor and Johnson Co. A business meeting lasting for a short period was conducted by the department commander The feature of this section was the presentation of a flag to the Benjamin Bowie Post and the fullest speech of acceptance by its commander, Mr. Hubert. Mr. Hubert drew rounds of applause from legionnaires and friends, as he recalled some of the stirring incidents of the great world war, when black and white fought, suffered and triumphed under their common starts and stripes. Especial ention is merited the address of Mr. Tennette, past commander of Ben Bowie Post. In expressive well chosen words, Mr. Tennette himself a valiant legionnaire urged that the patrotism and interest which makes good citizenship be continued and increased. His remarks too were received as point after point was unfolded to his audience. Mr. Woodley Lewis, vice Commander and Mr. Harry Beale also added their bit" to the timely words delivered from the platform. Such a feeling swept "en rapport" through the vast throng that it seemed like the war days, or as a white ex-soldier now writes of the "Wild-Cat" stories in Liberty said as he straightened up on his two feet, crippled in the Argonne, "Gee! I feel like I could go right back with these noble colored boys and do it all over again." Major Hartman or Brooklyn, N. Y., who presented the flag, Dist. Commander Van Hogan who took charge of the meeting, Comrades Jean Lusk, Le Roy Smith, Capt. Inslay, Syd Turner and Bert Mann were among the prominent members of the 20 posts represented Councilman Snapper Ingham was meeting old friends and Councilman Fred Roberts extended received any greetings. Following the addresses, the crowd was served with refreshments, then entertained by actors and actresses in songs and dances from the Miller and Slater show at the Lincoln, and several other theatres and clubs.

From the offices of the Nelson-White Company, owners and operators of the beautiful recreational playground comes the news that the coming beauty contest to be held on May thirtieth will be the finest ever held in California with the largest prize list from point of value ever given in an event of this kind. California, with its cinema atmosphere is the home of beauty but according to the opinion expressed by the promoters of the famous ones held here in the past, this one held by members of the Race is destined to surpass any ever staged by any race within the confines of the beauty loving Golden State. To use the phrase of the executive, "This beauty contest has taken everybody by storm and Los Angeles will be deserted on Decoration Day." Girls are flocking to the offices bringing their signed entry blanks while every mail brings in a lot of beauties names, all anxious to win that coveted first prize. But then again the management points that there will be valuable prizes for the first ten girls. Then there will be prizes for the children as there will also be a separate division for the little beauties. Arrangements have been completed for the filming of the pageant of beauty and pulchritude and some unknown girl of today may be the winner of the Miss Parkriek trophy and the $2,000.00 in prizes that will accompany the massive silver cup. The next nine girls will receive prizes totaling in the aggregate over $3,000.00 which makes this the beauty contest de luxe of California. Then comes the engagement at the Lincoln Theatre and the screen opportunities that will accompany the chosen beauty. And it doesn't cost one cent for entrance fees to enter this wonderful event. In addition to the beauty contest there will be sports of every kind indulged including golf swimming, tennis and dancing. It is the wish of the management of the Parkridge Country Club to show to the world the finest types of our young womanhood and this event will bring them to before the camera's lens which is the world's eye. (BY A. N. P.) Memphis, Tenn., May 23—Leroy Waller, who Sunday night shot Miss Ruth Vinson, a young white woman, when he mistook her party for bandits, was released here Tuesday because the officers were certain that his version of the shooting was true. The woman was wounded in the foot. Sunday at mid-night, according to Waller, he was aroused by a noise of someone operating his filling station. Believing them to be bandits he fired into the group, wounding the white woman. Waller's story was confirmed by members of the party, who added that they had attempted to awaken Waller and when their efforts were futile took the matter in their own hands and began filling up cans with gasoline to take to their stalled car. OFFICERS KILL MAN; SEEK RELATIVES (BY A. N. P.) Alexandria, La., May 22—Officers are scouring the woods, accompanied by 200 citizens in the effort to find George Blackman, father and Lee and Sam Blackman, brothers of William Blackman, who killed Frank Phillips, deputy sheriff, and was himself killed in the shooting here Sunday afternoon. The officers went to Blackman's home Sunday afternoon to arrest him on a charge of violating the prohibition law. When he saw the large group of whites accompanying the officers, it is said that he opened fire on the group killing Phillips. He was killed either by officers or members of the posse. Angered by the killing of a white man by a Negro, the mob along with the officers of the law went in search of the relatives of the dead man. Just what the charges are against these other Negroes were not made clear, other than he was "kin" to William Blackman.

JUNIOR SOCIETY HARD HIT BY SICKNESS AND ACCIDENTS. Last Tuesday evening May 22nd saw the beginning of a series of auto smashups that has thrown the younger members of the fashionable set into consternation. Mr. Ossia Gresham of 1351 Newton St. youthful son of Mrs. L. G. Gresham, was seriously injured when the machine in which he was driving in company of Miss Ongelique De Lavallade of E. Washington St. and Dr. Herbert Fairs, was overturned at Jefferson and Figuero. The car was hit as it crossed the middle of the intersection by a car driven by Mr. Rosander Meyers, former cornetist with Mosbys Blue Blowers. The car of Mr. Gresham was overturned and rolled over twice. All the occupants were thrown clear but young Gresham, Gresham is at home suffering a fractured collarbone. Miss De Lavallade suffered a badly wrenched knee and minor scratches and bruises. Dr. Faris was uninjured. No one was injured in the car driven by Myers. RUTH BAYLESS DANGEROUSLY INJURED Last Sat. Eve, Miss Ruth Bayless, prominent member of Los Angeles Junior Society, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sam F. Bayless of 1020 E. 18th St. was critically injured, when the machine in, which she was riding in company of some friends, was overturned after being struck by a car driven by an unnamed man purported to have been drunk. Miss Bayless, was in Company of relatives and close friends, on their way to Newport Beach to spend the week-end when the accident occurred. They were divided into two cars. Miss Bayless was riding in the rear seat of the second car, alone; and that chitty accounts for her being the only injured. The accident occurred near Huntington Beach. After being given emergency treatment at the beach, Miss Bayless was rushed to a hospital at Santa, and her people noti- fled. She suffered a dangerous blow at the base of the scull, that was almost a fracture. She could not be removed.

RAIL BOARD MAY CONTROL PLANE LINES If the present rapid progress in California aviation is continued, airplanes will soon take an important part among the common carriers of the state. This is the summary of a recent survey of aviation made by the transportation division of the state Railroad Commission. Such a development will undoubtedly result in a necessity for state regulations and establishment of equitable rates. New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania have already-passed laws governing the licensing of pilots, aircraft and operation of Airplanes, and as public carriers to protect the public. There are at present seven commercial lines operating on ten routes in the state. DINING CAR LOCAL MEET IN BEGULAR SESSION Dining Car Cooks & Watters Local No. 582 met in regular session Saturday in the Executive parlor of the Y. W. C. A. A large number were in attendance to gather with several visitors from the Union Pacific and Santa Fe Systems. A number of issues were taken up, the principal one being the "School Bond Election" June 5th, this organization will vote 100 per cent against the bond issue from the interest that has already been displayed. In its endeavor to do things just a little different than the other fellow the advertising committee of the local threw the coming frolic to be held at 15th and Main Thursday night on the massive billboards along Central Ave. Hooper and Washington Jefferson and Denker and other prominent thoroughfares. SANTA FE WAITER PASSES The sudden death of Walter Owens last Tuesday in Chicago brings Sorrow to his many friends in railroad circles. Walter had just recently entered the service of the Santa Fe and was on his regular layover in that city when the unexpected paid the visit. The Clatter extends sympathy to the bereaved family in this their sad hour of sorrow. DON'T BROADCAST YOUR FAILING Don't be too free in telling unfavorable things about yourself to intimate friends. The chances are that they know enough about you without your springing a surprise. The close friends of to day may be your bitterest enemies tomorrow. If they know incidents of your career that might affect your standing, they are likely to make them known. Or course that would be an unprincipled thing for a former friend to do, but anger sometimes overthrows principle. You may be contemplating a change that will benefit you. You may want to change it, if you do, you may be giving the one you least suspect to know it, the chance to thwart your plans. It is so easy to repeat what has been told you; it is so easy to let some little word slip, that you should not burden a friend with a responsibility that may react to your detriment. RAIL VALUATION CASE ADVANCED The Supreme Court Tuesday advanced the "$15,000,000 rail road case," involving the valuation of all railroads for rate making purposes, and set it for oral argument the week of October 1. The appeal was filled by the St. Louis and O'Fallon Railway Company which contended the interstate Commerce commission's method of valuing. Railroads for rate making purposes arrived at less than their true value. Experts have estimated the difference between the commission and carriers valuation to be $15,000,000.

When experience in public life is properly taken into account. Mrs. Cassells may perhaps be put at the head of the list of our active club women. Mrs. Cassells has enjoyed a long and active experience in public life. Entering upon her career years ago as public school teacher, Mrs. Cassells enjoyed the distinction of being regarded as one of the best instructors of her day and continued in this profession long after her marriage to her first husband, the son of Bishop John M. Brown, of the A. M. E. Church. Mrs. Cassells taught in that day when a thorough knowledge of the fundamentals of an education were the prime requisite. With the tenderest regard for a woman's age limit, it can be safely asserted that Mrs. Cassells is the oldest active club woman of our group in Los Angeles in public life at this time. But this rich wealth of experience is a most profitable asset to that class of our women who are doing so much to keep the race abreast of these critical and trying times. Mrs. Cassells, through her years of valuable experience, is qualified to fill any position which might fall the lot of woman regardless of color. Mrs. Cassells, through years of study of the civic and political affairs of our government, has detected the disintegration of party lines toward the evolution of a pure democracy. Mrs. Cassells is more than a club woman according to the ordinary application of the term, she is one of our shrewdest business women. Through experience she has observed that big achievements are accomplished through co-operation and concentration of effort. Mrs. Cassells is one of the most practical Christian workers among us, being an active member of Father Cleghorn's church and sharing in all the activities of that organization. Mrs. Cassells keeps abreast of the times and is one of the real wide-awake characters in our midst, aiding in readjustment. Mrs. Cassells may be regarded as one of our most capable and creditable women. She is at present looking out for the interests of the East Side Mothers' Club. MRS. A. C. RICHARDSON One of the most thorough race women to be found anywhere is Mrs. A. C. Richardson. It is hard to place the proper estimate upon the worth of one so valuable to the community in general. Mrs. Richardson belongs t oall of Los Angeles, regardless of color, creed or class, and is a woman of those persevering aims and tenderness which accomplishes results in the face of seeming defeat. Mrs. Richardson will best be remembered for the intense interest she took in the Bundy case a few years ago, raising something like three thousand dollars as a defense fund for Dr. Bundy, the climax of the East St. Louis riot. Mrs. Richardson has always manifested a grave interest in all ing with suggestion and effort for the activities of the race, ever willing wit hsuggestion and effort for something of a real constructive nature. class of women found in every com- 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. 44. 45. 46. 47. 48. 49. 50. 51. 52. 53. 54. 55. 56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 66. 67. 68. 69. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. 76. 77. 78. 79. 80. 81. 82. 83. 84. 85. 86. 87. 88. 89. 90. 91. 92. 93. 94. 95. 96. 97. 98. 99. 100. Made up special to suit each case; no condition incurable. It makes hair GROW LIKE WEEDS munity which, if properly encouraged, would greatly facilitate the so-called problem of race adjustment. Mrs. Richardson is a most practical Christian, an active member of the Birch Street Christian Church, and a profound believer in tenets of the Golden Rule. Mrs. Richardson, like many of our active race women, are bigger than their race and construe the so-called race problem as properly the problem of humanity.

JOE WATSON TO OPPOSE BEN DAVIS Atlanta, Ga., May 22. - Politics in Georgia took on a new aspect here this week when Joseph H. Watson, of Albany, Georgia, announced that he was a candidate for National Republican Committeeman of Georgia, and would oppose the present committeeman, Benjamin J. Davis, at the national convention of the Republican Party. This announcement was a distinct surprise to even those who considered themselves on the inside. "Uncle Joe" as he is known, is a great friend cf. Davis and it is common knowledge that the recently elected committeewoman, Mrs. Sars Watson King, a daughter of Joe Watson, was elected through the influence of the national committeewoman. Mr. Watson has been in politics for more than a score of years and is one of the old-war-horses of the regular regime. He is seeking the office upon his record as a citizen and as friend of the people. Leaders have Good Old Fashioned HONEY and HOREHOUND will relieve that cough or cold.

Pastor Next Sunday morning the pastor will deliver a sermon from the subject,: "THE CHRISTIAN'S KINGDOM, AND THE CHRISTIAN'S KING." In the evening his subject is to be, "WHAT IS THE ONE THING WE LACK." We have our communion services in the evening. Morning services open at 11 o'clock sharp. Evening services open at 6:30 sharp Our Sunday School opens at 9:30 A. M. in 8 Departments. Our B. Y. P. U. opens at 6:30 P. M. in 2 Departments. We extend a hearty welcome to every body. Another large crowd greeted us last Sunday morning. The spiritual fervor was high. We had an interesting sermon delivered by the pastor, subject, "God's Mighty Few." The pastor showed how it is the few who accomplish things in the realms of finance, education business, and even in the governments of the earth. He shewed hdw it is the few who achieve moral attainments, But God accomplishes great things through the few. The Lord's few are mighty, and the Lord's folks are mighty few. in the evening we had the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity with us in the conclusion of their "Go to High School and Go to College Campaign." They had a wonderful program. Mr. Newell Eason pointed out the financial advantages of a high school and a college education. It would be well for all our young people to get these facts from Mr. Eason. Dr. Kate Gordon an instructor in psychology at the University of California in Los Angeles delivered the principal address. We are sure Dr. Gordon presented her subject in such a way as to increase the desire of many for further education. There were other numbers of special interest on the program. Look for announcement of next Sunday services elsewhere. WADSWORTH CHUDCH NEWS The Pastor of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, Elder P. G. Rodgers has safely returned form his visit to Salt Lake City where he held three weeks special services in connection with the dedication of a new church building in that city. The entire time he was there, the Wadworth Church surged ahead, under the direction of Dr. V. C. Hamilton and Prof. W. G. Wirth, but now that the Pastor is at home the members of the church with their friends are looking ahead for the interesting sermons that the Pastor always presents. Sun. night, June 3rd the subject will be "The dream of present government heads." And by way of explanation it is the hope of many of the 'great nations' that permanent world peace can be established and war forever abolished. Pastor Rogers wishes that this could be, but taking the Bible for his authority, he will give God's picture of this present hope of men. Sabbath (Saturday) June 2nd the members of the church will celebrate the 1st Anniversary of their New Church home for one year ago this time this congregation held its first service at 37th and Wadworth Streets, the church location. All are inviter to these services, which you will find spiritually helpful. STATELY AND BEAU TIFUL TEMPLE (Continued from Page One) THE CHURCH PERSONNEL Surprising to the almost is the fact that this big constructive effort is the accomplishment of less than 25 persons in its incipiens, but by an organization of forces, an upright and determined leadership, step by step, they have wrought well and will throw open the doors of this magnificent product on next. Sunday with appropriate exercises in dedication thereof. PASTOR—REV. J. W. JORDAN Wise counsel and unselfish leadership by the pastor with progressive and wide awake citizens backing up his efforts, has been the success of this undertaking and Venice, with its surrounding territory is indeed proud or their pastor's effort. By way of comparison under his leadership the 25 members is rapidly approaching to the 100-mark. DEACON BOARD Closely as asociated with their pastor the Deacon Board, consisting of C. E. A. Brunson, Simon Searcy, S. C. Hawkins, J. T. Moore and L. G. Wells, a tower of strength was manifested from the start and there was nothing to expect except unqualified success. TRUSTEE BOARD AND BUILDING COMMITTEE Arthur L. Reese, chmn. John B. Faint, Simon Searcy, C. E. A.

These entered into friendly rivalry and the greater portion of the finance was raised and put into the building fund. The Club leaders were captained by Sherman Overr, Club No. 1 and Simon Searcy, Club No. 2. Not only the members rallied, but the friends as well and worthy of note according to those who know, they are unstinted in their praise for the magnificent work accomplished by Mrs. Evelyn Williams. Special mention was accredited to J. B. Maxwell and Garfield Carter for contributions as master plasterers also to Alphonso Henry and Garfield Carter for cement work, likewise to Albert Schoen for interior decorations and to John B. Fant for special work contributed. The late Mrs. Abbott Kinney for her splendid cooperation and largest contribution of over $500.00 the committee has designated as a memorial to her and Mr. Abbott Kinney, one of the windows with appropriate inscription thereon. MISSIONARY SOCIETY Especial credit is due the Missionary Society who furnished the ladies parlor, pastor's study, kitchen, choir room and to C. E. A. Brunson for the donation of a handsome stove. Much of the stuff and ornaments were made and placed by Arthur L. Reese. Finally the climax will be reached when, on next Sunday, the Building Committee, which has worked like trojans, will turn over to the church for dedication as complete, unique and beautiful a church edifice as it is possible to produce. The task has been to gigantic, the accomplishment so great and the victory so complete, that all may justly join in a mighty chorus of song and rejoicing as they share in the glory thereof.

IN MEMORIAM At this season when the thoughts of the nation are turned with reverence and respect to our dear departed ones, we too are pausing to pay a tribute to the memory of our beloved broth rs. Lewis E. (1874—1928) and Joseph (1869—1925) McClellan, whose fatherly interest and counsel, so lovingly bestowed upon us during their sojourn here, will be ever cherished and treasured. They are sorely missed in the family gatherings but we feel the same wonderful influence manifested during their lifetime, bowering over us in a spirit of peace and calm.

SMITH, Passenger Traffic M EDITORIAL PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW The Interdenominational Ministerial Alliamce of Los An- geles, California, on’ last Monday, went on record for produc- tion; preceeding this event ong of the high »fficials of the great A.M. E. Church, in making a rather inspiting financial report for his connection, said “Let's get together all along the line of effort. Let’s put more business in religiod and more religion in business.” All of which constrains us td!see visions for the dawn of a better day ahead and an awakewing along the lines of economic endeavor which will place otir particular group among the units which stand for a real ajtd lasting progress. Therefore we congratulate the ministry °f its giant forward step and if they will but live up to the déclarations made it means so much for advancement that the j:results gained will be not unlike the tales which outdo fiction by their strangenegs. The following was unanimously adoptéd by the Alliance: READ! THINK! AQT! The Interdenominational Alliance "As a unit” sec- onds a motion “to bring us up out of the depths of our pres- ent and lamentable bitterness.’ he The motion was made by a few pravtical men—men of sane an! serious thoughtfulness, These men are al- ready immortal though they may not live to see the full triumph of their prophesy. In the pyramid Co-operative As-” sociation taese men bring to the Black pebple of this com- munity, state and nation, a train of sciongific analysis, the motive power of which is COMMON SENSE. They say to ns, “This is the Train en;route FROM the dark vale of our economic ilis where we liye and where we have naught to do but ‘hew wood and oie the water,’ ” The common sense activity nf The Pyramid Cooperative Association is without question the Traiz| en route to the city of our economic refuge. i Let’s take this train.

Where traffic is heavy and constantly increasing, as it is throughout all Los Angeles, the question of what to do with the Pedestrian becomes an involved one. Pedeptrians seem to be multiplying about as rapidly as motor vehicleb, to the annoyance of those commissioned to protect both and who have been argu- ing to themselves that with vehicular traffic increasing so rapid. ly the supply of pedestrians must soon be exhausted. For several years drunken, hit-and-run and reckless drivers have been dealt with severely whenever apprehended, and few have escaped. Traffic guardians have become increasingly alert and efficient. And caution has been preachtd incessantly into the ears of both drivers and walkers. With what success? Traf- fic fatalities continue to increase. i As all drivers are pedestrians part of the time and most pedestrians have sat behind the wheel it would appear that the responsibility of automobile-pedestrian accidents is about equal- ly divided, Both are human beings, Possess¢d of such human Weaknesses as absent-mindedness, carelessnesd and recklessness. ‘The statement that the pedestrian auffers for the megligence of both is seriously disputed by every driver why has experienced the shock of seeing a man, woman or child stkp blindly, in front of his car. \ Legislatures, grand juries, courts and police have done ev- erything within their power. Nothing can béiaccomplished by enacting more laws and most communities have as many traffic policement as their revenue permts. There seéms no remedy but absolation separation of vehicular and pedestrian traffic by /providing private ways for each. “| When one man beats another's game it ejjcourages a lit of hs as : 4 ———. i Any backward man who is financially embarrassed does not like to meet his creditors. - Pace Six DESTINY A TRE NES ad Neca pants cree PRR UU eer tee Sh Cet SRR, neh a MOeeeE PLES «age Posner ay cee Ren ee Feng Nae ort ee ee ove SSS Shem MANO DAN AEM ihe To oe ERLE SOO a One re peg iets Tee Seu ure tee SAS eee ee geet Bo AES fee re Senne OTE Soles tal eae see ee i ce Soa ae ee et = f rey Pie ee hae er Te de < 5 fi BES \ You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA | -EAGLE—You May Never Jt Happened Friday, June 1, 1928 + | ‘have placed: on the back of the “Hee| numbers, | That problei 1s an eco-| governments and protect their various |best behaved group in the country; i Haw,” Smith; Goy.

J have often wondered, Mr. Hen. derson, bow it feels to belong to a race of people who are not considereil a problem. ‘To my humble way of thinking a man who is not considered & social problem feels either lone: some, neglected, or superior. Fam, no acctistomed to giving my views to the public on social problems. My name has: never been mentioned among those of prominent men and women on questions of a racial and sociolorteal nature. Possibly it is be cause I am nefther a politician nor a professional social worker. 1 am, however, a production man, being ert gaged in the scientific formulation and production of paints, varniskes, pyrox- olyn lacquers, colt water paints’ and allied products. In iy position a& superintendent 1 am in close touch with human nature. I see it at its best and I sett at its| worst. Under my direct supervision are workers of many races and na- ‘ionalities, I have made a close study of these men. Therefore what T am about to say is from canviction, due (0 contact and experience, and not rom prejudiced opinion. In Mr. Henderson's letter to me he tates that he desires LIGHT to throw on this big problem, at Yosemite hat will help in the solution and in- elligent discussion of the question. His.letter further states that It is his lesire to have this matter discussed | penly and with frankness, To that| nd I'am here. T consider the question as pro- jouhded in Mr. Henderson's letter mo- mentous, and, without exception, of] reatest significance to colored peo- le. That is why T have not trusted | ny utterances to extemporaneous} peech.' I have come prepared in a written form fo fear; that what 1 am | bout to say might be misunderstood, | rT might omit something that ought | 0 be said. ‘ “What problems are developing in ‘alifornia by reason of increasing m{-| ration of colored. people?” ‘ Pyrat, T wish to’ make it plain thas nefe is but ONE problem developing | 1 Californi» by reason of increasing | iigration of colored people, and that || ; the ame problem that has devel-|t ped in all communities wherever col-|1 red people have migrated in- large| ment for the masses, both the educat- ed and the illiterate, whereby. they can ‘purchase the necessities of life hamely: food, clothing and shelter. ‘That, Mr. Henderson, is the problem that has already developed in Califor. nia as a result of increasing migration of colore teople and ft 18 taking on larger proportions as the number ‘of stich “migrants further Inereasen, Ag a result of this ONE big prob: Jem, the economic weakness of color: ed psople, many ills result, such as Tesidentisi segregation, discrimination In’ public places and. in private, eco- home exploitation, and a dispropor- tionate shar. jof public servants and Political reprdsentation. ‘These ills are commonly, ue mistakenly” ealled Droblems.

THE SIDEWALK pence ie a eee et eee cases publicity of discrimination, but you have gone into the courts and demanded redress trom hav- ing been discriminated against. T write you this letter because of the respect and the honor that 4g due you from every’ citizen re- gardiess of his nationality, who Tesides in Los Angeles and be- Neves in fair play and human treatment of human beings. I am wishing you every success that I am sure you will attain by carry- ing on the great work that you are now engaged in. The Cali- fornia Eagle, which is now the greatest Negro Journal west of the rockies, is climbing step by step and with its present pro- gressive managément it is surely headed to become a greater week- ly than it is today. in your editorials from time to time I have noticed your recom- Mendation that more of our peo- Ple go back to the farm. It is a Tecommendation which holds the greatest minds of the thinking Americans today. Let the poor whites continue to rush to the cities and factories, but our group shall more and more rush to the farm, get a home in the soil and become independent. The unem ployment situations of our group in large cities are becoming a- larming. The boy and girl who is graduating from high school and college well equipped mental- ly, physically, and intelligently to occupy the positions of which they have aspired all these years to become engaged in are too few for them. We must look for another solution. That elution, I believe. is back to the farm, back to the motherland. Those of our group who are suc- cessfully carrying on their busi- nesses can oniy ‘hope to employ a very few of our graduates. There- fore it becomes necessary that we turn our attention on some other solution of this great problem (the problem of employment) and ar- rive at the solution in the very ,near future and plan what is best to do and after we have made that decision to work that plan, one of the first things that I think We must do as a group of mixed race people is to get together our- selves. There is too much differ- ence of opinions and of leader- ship for the best interests of the group. ‘The fellow that is up is doing all he can to keep his brother down. There is too much petty jealousy and unethical tac- ‘tics persued by the mixed races between themselves. Until this condition is remedied and the mixed races themselves come to an understanding, 1 doubt the early arrival of a solution of the race question, A few days ago I rceeived a Igt- ter from a good white lady Ing which she stated that I was prtvi- leged fo sell her property. but not to sell it to Negroes. 7 immedi- ately looked in Webster's Colleg- ate dictionary for the word “Ne- gro” and I have found that a Ne- gro, as defined by Whesfer, is a rson of the typical African fanch of the Ethiopian race, in- iting the Sudan, or it meant a black person. After reading, this definition, I walked from Jeffer- son to Sth street and back. I saw 0 few black persons that i'm sure that she could not have referred to these people. In fact, to my thinking, there are so few Ne- groes on the Pacitic Coast that wo are entirely misrepresented and the only solution of this question Is for every person other than of the pure Caucasian race to de- Sars thesttres (ot (she tava race of Seople which is the truth and nothing but.the truth. If the mixed races of the Pacific Coast would get together ang concen- trate on this one thought—that they are a mixed race—and vote their conviction, we would soou distolve this race question. Mex ico had to come to it and sooner or later these United States must recognize the existence of a mix- ed race of people. You must pardon me for writ- ing you this long letter, but T am so fall of this hatred and pejudice among even our own people that [ believe that the only way out of it is as above referred to. If we were known as a mixed race of people instead of a mulatto, a colored, a black, etc, we would Bet more recognition from what is known as the Caucasian race, You must gelieve, since you are of the mixed race yourself, as ninety- nine per cent of the rest of the supposed Negro race is, that we ought to have some say about what we are. If recognition could be obtained and this group of whieh you represent should - be known as the mixed race of peo- ple, it would. relieve us of, so much unnecessary, _ quarreling and fighting among’ each other. There can be no peace, no happi- ness, no permanent successes, un- ti the meeting of minds on ‘this very issue is in existence.

At this time there are other ice men delivering ice to the homes of colored people and these men are not men of our race. Of course it is the privilege of any one, to spend their money with whom they please but it does seem that it is time that we as a race of people were realizing that our hope for success in the future depends on our co-operation with and support of each other in worthy enterprises. If the School bonds are voted Tuesday no other part of the city will be benefited more than South Los Angeles, this is especially true of the matters of the 111th. St. school; for as was stated by the principal of this school at a recent meeting that the 111th. St. school building was one of the poorest in the city. A new building is promised for this school if the school bonds carry as well as improvements for other schools, including a boy's and girl's gymnasium at the David Sturry Jordan High School is sufficient inducement for every well thinking citizen in South Los Angeles to vote for the bonds. The Negroes of South Los Angeles because of the large number who live in this part of the city and because of their close proximity to each other have a splendid opportunity to give to the world an expression of what the Negro is capable of doing. This can only be done through united effort and co-operation. Shall we take advantage of this opportunity or shall we throw away this chance by needless criticism, self seeking and petty jealousies, which make us an easy prey for the unscrupulous persons of both races who seek their own and not the peoples interests.

The Service Station will be operated by his two sons, Robert and Leo Buford, who are two of the most prominent and highly respected citizens in So. Los Angeles. We wish the sons the greatest of success in their business. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Holvay, 1507 E. 109th St., entertained Sunday in honor of Mr. and Mrs. D. S. Taylor of St. Paul, Minn.

Layola, Great Catholic College, Breaks Ground SETS EXAMPLE IN BROTHERHOOD All groups, nationalities, creeds, secret orders and divisions of men forged petty difference and unite to make this great day for Loyola, for Americanism and Christianity. In the beautiful Del Rey Hills a great college is arising; dedicated to the service of man and the glory of God. The parade was a beautiful spectacle and as it wended its way through the broad new streets led by the Army and Navy color guard. World war veterans, clive organizations, patriotic societies, secret orders and men banded together to keep the name of the Master holy. There were seven bands in the procession including the Military band of the Knights of Pythians with its uniform rank under Capt. Leo. When the call was made for a Negro group to participate in this ceremony the above organization with its music and drill team responded, and even though there was no money to be earned, this loyal group together with the pioneer boys of the twenty-eight Street branch of the Y. M. C. A. under Harold Wilson responded. These men and boys did credit to the race. They were in the first division of the parade and immediately in front of the Loyola boy's Military Band. It was a great day for Los Angeles and we congratulate Father Sullivan and Loyola College.

Last Sunday morning, May 27th, little Edward, in company with several other boys of his age, on their way to get morning papers, came upon this fatal body of water. This pool or ditch of stagnant water, is located on the property of the Consumers Rock and Gravel Company. A raft was made and the boys proceeded to play upon it riding from shore to shore. When young Jonas attempted to board the raft, it became overbalanced and he fell from it into the water. The other boys when they heard his trivial cries for help, became frightened and ran away. No alarm was given and the whereabouts of little Edward was not learned until eleven o'clock Sunday evening. Then, only after much search and questioning of his phantasms. After the boys told what happened, police were rushed to the scene, later fixtures were called and the body recovered. It is claimed by the watchman that if he had been notified immediately, probably the youth's life could have been saved. Little Edward is survived by two brothers, Theodore and James Jones, and an older sister, Miss Lillian Jones, with whom Edward and the other childn made their home following the death of their mother in April; and their grandmother, Mrs. Sarah A. Jones, of 1822 East 39th Street, with whom the younger children resided. The surviving members of the family are heartbroken. Miss Lillian Jones, sister with whom little Edward was a favorite, is an employee of Henderson and Henderson, Haberdashers. He was a pupil in the Vernon Avenue grade school. He was twelve years of age. Funeral Thursday morning, June 31st from Connor and Johnson Funeral parlors.
