BIG CROWD AT NAACP BIG N. A. A. C. P. T. MEMBERSHIP M. B. Robert W. Bagnall Immediately following the close of the Nineteenth Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will be held a Drive to bring the membership of Los Angeles up to oat least a total of 5,000 members. Los Angeles has made a record in preparing for the coming of the Conference in a superior way to any other place where the Conference has met. It has also set a record in entertaining the Conference. Immediately following the Conference of the National Ass of Colored People will be held ship of Los Angeles up t oat leas Angeles has made a record in p Conference in a superior way toference has met. It has also set Conference. It wishes to capitalize the inspiration and the understanding of the Association given by the Conference in enlisting a large membership to more efficiently fight the battles of our group in the city, state and country. Already plans are being made for a legal case to be handled by the Los Angeles Branch. This case will probably be carried thru the United States Supreme Court and, we believe, end in a favorable settlement of certain hardships under which Colored people labor in California. Eminent counsel will be engaged and the fight will be one of nation wide importance. To carry thru this fight and to do the other things which the Association has on its program, every Colored man and woman and every friend of the Colored people should join the N. A. A. C. P., if not already a member. The city is being divided into districts. Majors are being appointed ever each district and are enlisting Captains for the thorough house to house canvassing of the districts. The Drive is being conducted under the direction of a Colonel and under the Director of Branches, Robert W. Bagnall is remaining over to the end of the Drive, which will be a whirlwind affair, and expects to close on July 15th. Below is a list of the Colonel and Majors of the various districts: Col. Mrs. Katherine Reeves; Majors, Mrs. Rebecca Hill, Mrs. Maggie Wright, Mrs. Ruth Fowler, Mrs. Annette Hudson, Mrs. E. B. Liddell, Mrs. Eva Thomas, Mrs. John J. Christian, Mrs. Elmer Bartlett, Mrs. M. G. Patton, Mrs. C. F. Graves, Mrs. Fannie M. W. Alexander, Mrs. Estelle Walker, Miss Gertrude Chrisman, Mrs. Maude Wat VOLUME 42 MUSICAL REVIEW EXPECTS CAPACITY HOUSE With the greatest aggregation of Negro stage, screen and radio stars ever assembled on the same stage, the Musical Review to be presented Saturday evening in Shrine Auditorium, gives fair promise of surpassing any event of its kind ever presented here, according to Geo. D. Lottin, manager. This performance, sponsored by the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. is the official entertainment for the national convention which is now in session. Brilliant pageentry, bewitching harmony of color, rhythm, and sound will make it one evening of enchanting entertainment. Music for the occasion will be furnished by three select orchestras. The show begins promptly at 8 P. M. At ten o'clock, a reception will be held in Shrine Pavilion. A capacity house is anticipated and those wishing the best seats should purchase them in advance from places advertised in another section of this paper. Be on time—avoid the rush. on. Mrs. Lucille Clairette, Mr. Eva Carter Buckner. POLITICAL POT PIE Interesting indeed was the spectacle in which some of the political wiseacre sought to mess up the situation in the 74th Assembly District But all to no avail, and it is now a straight away race between the incumbent who says he is satisfied and content and Joseph R. Bass, who says he is neither satisfied nor content unless the sign of progress is hoisted high. --- City Prospector E. J. Likely is not to be criticised for his action in withdrawing from the race. To our way of thinking he played the better part. For he is known at this stage of the game the Hon. Buron Fitts can make a runaway race for and office which he seeks. It is not a question of the personal status of our present Assemblyman or of that of his rival, J. B. Pass. The question resolves itself into the proposition of accomplishment. It is well enough to smile, and be content with the honors of public position, but the people demand more than that, they want action and will accp nothing less. If Mr. Roberts has brought things to pass all would be well, if not got out of the way and let someone else who has remonstrated progress get on the job. This is our firm belief is the overwhelming attitude of the people. On this situation they will register their verdict at the primaries in August. * * * That endorsement being published in the columns of the organ of our Assemblybyman might prove a boomerang and it is signed among others by Rev. W. M. Venerable, and quite a few of the influential ministers of the Baptist Alliance have stated they know nothing of said endorsement. Sidney P. Dones is showing a lot of speed and the secret of the whole affair is the fact that Sid is a past master in the art of advertising. Rev. E. T. Hubbard has fought long and well for the G. O. p. but has now sought new friends by being a full fledged democratic candidate for Assembly honors in the 73rd. Col. C. H. Alston, the old war horse, says he is about to turn on the power and to watch him comeunder the wire a winner on August 28th. --- Should the judiciary be free of politics? If so, should their selection be left to a commission, as for instance, not unlike the civil service? Would not such a policy tend to lower the standard, and stifle the ambition of our young attorneys? Should the public abide by the decision of the Plebiscite or Bar Association in their selection and endorsement of judges: or should they use their best judgement and vote independent of their recommendations? IT REALLY HAPPENED. GENTLEMEN KEEP THEIR PROMISES When the question arose as to the candidates to represent the 74th Assembly District, it was agreed between certain political forces, that no white man would enter the race as opposing the candidacy of the two Blacks—Namely: Frederick M. Roberts and Joseph B. Bass. It was generally rumored and looked upon with a deal of scepticism as to the truthfulness of the same, but after all, Coolidge Praises 'Sound Methods' of Negro Advancement Ass'n. GREETINGS FROM PRESIDENT READ AT OPENING OF LOS ANGELES CONFERENCE Los Angeles, June 28 - President Coolidge, in a message of greeting to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, read last night at the opening mass meeting of the Association's 19th Annual Conference commended the "sounding methods" used in securing the Negro's constitutional rights and expressed his hope for the increasing success of the Association in promoting its "worthy objects." The message of greeting from President Coolidge, in full, addressed to James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the Association, is as follows: "My dear Mr. Johnson: "Thank you for informing me of the coming Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, as I am glad each year to express my regard for the aims and achievements of your organization. You have used sound methods in securing for the Negro the rights to which he is entitled under the Constitution. At the same time you have promoted the cause of tolerance among all race and creeds. "As opportunities have increased, so have the colored people shown their ability and energy in taking advantage of them. May I reiterate here, what I said in my Annual Message to Congress in December: History does not anywhere record so much progress made in the same length of time as that which has been accomplished by the Negro race in the United States since the Emancipation Proclamation. They have come up from slavery to be prominent in education, the professions, arts, science, agriculture, banking, and commerce. It is estimated that 50,000 of them are on the Government pay rools, drawing about $50,000,000 each year. They have been the recipients of presidential appointments and their professional ability has arisen to a sufficiently high plane so that they have been intrusted with the entire management and control of the great Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, where their conduct has taken high rank. They have shown that they have been worthy of all, the encouragement which they have received. Nevertheless, they are too often subjected to thoughtless and inconsiderate treatment, unworthy alike of the white or colored races. They have especially been made the target of the foul crime of lynching. For several years these acts of unlawful violence had been dimin- some men keep a gentleman's agreement, and Lo! herein is the "proof of the pudding the eating thereof. Only two men in the race: Frederick M. Roberts and Joseph B. Bass, Editor of the California, Eagle. This dispels all doubt as to the possibility of the election of a white man to the position as Assmbylman from the 74th Assembly District. It is therefore left to the public to judge these men upon their merits. Mr. R. G. Lamar, secretary of the California Citizens Civic League is quoted as saying, that there is no doubt but what Mr. Bass will be elected by a large majority over Frederick M. Roberts. POLITICAL POWER "DISTORTED BY NEGRO DISFRANCHISEMENT SAYS DR. DUBOIS Southern Obligarchy Dictator of Nation, Declares Editor of "Crisis," in Keynote Address of Race Relations Conference LOS ANGELES, CAL., JUNE 28.—Disfranchizement of the Negro in Southern States has brought about such distortion of political power in the United States that a small white obligarchy in the South is the dictatry of the Nation, declared Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, Editor of the Crisis Magazine, in the keynote address last night which opened the 19th Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Dr. DuBois pointed out that the barring of Negro citizens from the polls in southern cities had transferred political power into the hands of a small group of whites, as many as from 80 to 90 per cent of voters in far southern states refraining from voting in the election of 1920. Among the states where this abstention from use of the ballot was most pronounced Dr. DuBois cited the following states and their percentage of non-voters: South Carolina 92 per cent Mississippi 91 " " Georgia 89 " " Louisiana 86 " " Texas 82 " " Arkansas 79 " " Alabama 79 " " Florida 72 " " The consequence in political distortion, continued Dr. DuBois was that whereas it took 85,759 votes to elect a Representative in Congress from California and 91,785 from Ohio, citizens in southern states enjoyed in some cases ten times as much political power as citizens in the North, as follows: SOUTH THE NEGRO AT KANSAS CITY There were fifty Negro delegates and ten alternates at the recent Republican Convention. A goodly proportion came from Northern districts. Their interests were mainly segregated and racial. The dominant issues of prohibition and farm relief did not arouse their emotions, nor stir their enthusiasm. After the manner of the Southern plan, the Negro representatives were shut into themselves by domiciliary segregation. The great Methodist Episcopal Conference had met in the same city several weeks previous. The colored contingency was similarly disposed of. Neither politics nor religion runs as deep as the color line. The Negro is learning painfully the purpose of the Nordic to set a social separatrix which shall operate as effectively as the decimal Votes Per State Representative South Carolina 9,449 Mississippi 10,312 Georgia 12,394 Luisiana 15,733 Texas 22,973 Virginia 23,100 Alabama 24,107 NORTH Vote Per State Representative Indiana 97,108 New York 67,338 Kansas 71,278 New Jersey 75,333 Illinois 77,425 "The barring of Negroes from the polls in the South," said Dr. DuBois "encourages obligarchy. It enables cliques to nullify not simply the 14th and 15th Amendments but the 19th giving the right to vote to women. And, finally, it entirely vitiates the normal distribution of voting power throughout the nation. (Continued on Page Seven) ishing. In the last year they have shown an increase. Every principle of order and law and liberty is opposed to this crime. The Congress should enact any legislation it can under the Constitution to provide for its elimination."

K. M. N. K. THE NEGRO AT KANSAS CITY There were fifty Negro delegates and ten alternates at the recent Republican Convention. A goodly proportion came from Northern districts. Their interests were mainly segregated and racial. The dominant issues of prohibition and farm relief did not arouse their emotions, nor stir their enthusiasm. After the manner of the Southern plan, the Negro representatives were shut into themselves by domiciliary segregation. The great Methodist Episcopal Conference had met in the same city several weeks previous. The colored contingency was similarly disposed of. Neither politics nor religion runs as deep as the color line. The Negro is learning painfully the purpose of the Nordic to set a social separatrix which shall operate as effectively as the decimal point in arithmetic. The basic question is, what power has he to alter or affect that purpose? It operates with baleful effectiveness alike in education, religion, politics and social procedure. All of our bombardment does not seem to budge it. The Negro delegates did not seem to figure in any effective way in the general procedure of the convention. In the main, they were lined up on the winning side long in advance The Afro-American has an instinct for picking the winner and getting on the band wagon. The Negro contingent held its own racial caucus. I constituted only five per cent of the enrollment of the convention. The Chief concern of the colored political leaders was to secure the insertion of a plank insisting upon the enforcement of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments. The colored troops fought nobly, but to no avail. They were not even able to have these amendments bracketed with the Eighteenth whose enforcement was especially stressed as a party policy. But true to the verbal traditions of the party some slight reference must needs be made to the Negro and his claims. Cerubus must have his sop. The insertion of the splinter of a plank on lynching was only a complimentary gesture. It serves to remind the race that the Grand Old Party has not altogether forgotten the black ally who was formerly held in such high regard and esteem. The insertion will not be without indirect benefit. It serves to keep afresh in the mind of the American people the enormity of the evil of lynching. I do not believe that a single Negro will be deceived thereby. It will certainly not be stressed as a campaign issue.

McFurray Irvine is the expression of achievements hoped for by the young college man of today. "Western-Whittlings" is dedicated to the 19th Annual meeting of the N.A. A. C. P. Conference now in session in our city of sunshine and flowers and we hope that both strangers and home folk will find in it some food for thought. The two young men, the publishers of this magazine, deserve a good word from everyone in bask of their very commendable effort to give to Southern California a magazine. ..... THE Twenty-second annual convention of the California State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs closed a history making session at San Diego, California, June 23rd. It is reported that some of the highlights of this meeting were a segregated school at Monrovia functioning under the caption of a school for aliens and an invisible scheme on foot to segregate the Parent Teacher Association of California, and to eventually segregate the California public school system. While we realize that there are those among us who would welcome this un-American division in the educational system, in one of the greatest states in the Union—we can but hold to the belief that California is peopleled by some of America's greatest statesmen and that it is the home of a goodly number of the Nation's foremost economists, hence we do not believe that these who look forward to California becoming one of the greatest states in the Union scattering its financial strength by separating schools. If you travel across the continent from San Francisco to New York, making a special study of school locations and buildings you will find that in these, California ranks first. California, at least, has come to the conclusion that the artistic development of the child's mind has been frightfully neglected and in order to arouse his sense of appreciation for the beautiful, great consideration in the erection of schools and colleges is being given. And to those who think that the Colored people, who are large taxpayers in this State, will sit by and stand for the enforcement of inferior educational facilities, we rise to say that they and their disciples are sadly mistaken. We believe that as little publicity as possible should be given this school segregation scare at this time, but we do hold to the belief that we should keep our sentinels on the watch tower every minute and ever danger along this line is sighted, word should be passed down the ranks. We know that for the past few years, some of the heads of "The Parent-Teacher Association" have advocated separate and distinct divisions for Colored parents and some of our parents fell for this sort of thing, but not with any thought that this was a step toward segregated schools. On this point, we suggest that unless we affiliate with "The Parent-Teacher Association," which is national in scopes, and lose sight of the separation-idea in this branch of the educational field, it were better that we have no Parent-Teacher Association than to suffer ourselves to be segregated through this medium. ```markdown ``` *THE FAULT IS WITHIN "A great hue and cry has gone up throughout the ranks of the Negro racial group in view of the alleged discriminatory and segregation tactics of those in charge of affairs at the National Republican Convention held in Kansas City last week. Reports broadcast through the columns of the race press almost generally protest what they term a desire to ignore the race and refusal to accord the Negro the least bit of consideration. "Coupled with these complaints are other reports telling that the deposed Ben Davis, of Georgia Odd Fellow fame, Perry Howard and others of his Mississippi delegation made up of members of the racial group actually cast their votes against Walter Cohen of Louisiana, in favor of the "lily white" contest, Emil Kuntz, from that state. All of which goes to show that the real cause for the Negroes' failure to secure proper recognition is due to their lack of united effort in pressing the race's contention before the leaders of the Grand Old Party." So favorably impressed are we with the sentiment expressed in this editorial from the June 21st issue of "The East Tennessee News" that we are reprinting it that those of us living in California may read and wonder. Page--Ten THE BLACK SPORT WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF HAMILTON ART THE BLACK SPORT WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF HAMILTON ART Mickey Walker beat Ace Hudkins, the blonde Wild-Cat from Nebraska, but oh! what a howl after the fight. Some of the sport writers in the East give Walker a shade in only two rounds. Ace taking the rest. It seems that every fight Mickey lights there is always some after-effect that leaves a bad taste in the public's mouth. The toy Bull Dog won the middle-weight title from Tiger Flowers in Chicago a little over a year ago. Everyone said that Walker was made a present of the title. About four or five months back he fought Jack Willis at San Francisco and many who saw the fight said that Walker was licked. With Jack Kearns in his corner, Walker is likely to keep the title for some little time. Chicago always was famous for its gang fights and daylight robbing, but it takes the cup and all the trimmings when it comes to boxing matches. First Tiger Flowers' title is taken away from him on a referee's poor decision, a plain case of robbery. Then that now famous fourteen count that Gentleman Gene got over Jack Dempsey. Now, after several years of hard fighting Hudkins is given his chance at the middleweight title and is robbed. "Carry on Chi there's only the one, when you're gone there won't be none." * * * Jimmy Black crawls through the ropes at San Bernardino as we go to press to battle Art Craig. This is Black's first battle in some little time, but he should take Craig quick like a minute. When Babe Ruth started the season this year he had a total of 426 home runs, but the Babe wasn't satisfied so he set out to set a record of 560. Up to date the Yankee slugger has 454 and still going strong. Glenn and Jenkins Those 'Sweepin' Fools' Those "Swipin" Fools," Glenn and Jenkins, popular colored comedians known to vaudeville devotees and musical comedy patrons fro mone end of the, United States to the other, return to Metropolitan next week as featured principall in Jack Partington's latest Publicx stage production "Steps and Steppers." • Glenn and Jenkins have been presenting their present skit for more than eight years over every theatre circuit worth mentioning and in many independent vaudeville theatres. In addition they have been featured in numerous musical comedies on Broadway. Will Glenn's uncle is Buddie Glenn, who recently retired after touring the country with the Old Georgia Minstrel Troupe since 1880. Walter Jenkins is an excellent billiard player and has been meeting amateur and professional players all over the country for fifteen years or more. Crip the rythmic bootblack who appears in support of the team, was discovered in the Galley Barber Shop, in Bufalo, N. Y. by the manager of the colored musical comedy, "7-11," and has since played in vaudeville all over the country. The real name of this colored youngster is Clarence Robichaux but when he first went on the stage he was afraid a name like that would hinder him so he cut it down to "Crip." New Orleans is his home town and it was there he found that lots more could be accomplished with a shoe brush and a rag than just the art of shining shoes. Besides being among the funniest comedians on the stage, Glenn and Jenkins, who were students at Claffin University, Orangeburg, S. C., write all the music, arrange all their dances and are the originators of all the material they use in their hilariously funny act. WHAT'S THIS?—A DOUBLE STAGE WEDDING AT THE LINCOLN To lose two of its beautiful users at one fell blow is very hard for the Lincoln Theatre but nevertheless Miss Rosalie Lincoln has plighted her troth to Dr. Nathaniel Fearonce of U. S. C. and Miss Leora Turnbull has about the same time has promised to be life-time pupil for Prof. Robert Brown of New Orleans University, N. O., La. As the most outstanding social or theatrical event of the season the two were married in full view of the public on the stage of the Lincoln Theatre, the night of June 28th. The coincidence of the double engagement, double wedding and the fact that both are users on the same door at the beautiful playhouse adds If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened UNIQUE BEAUTY SHOPPE OPENS IN THE SOMERVILLE a touch of real romance to the affair and assures that all who possibly may will witness the brilliant affair.

REEL PREVIEWS and REVIEWS ROD LAROQUE STARRED AT DE-MILLE STUDIO IN CAP-TAIN SWAGGER We're glad to see one of our real favorites starred in this picture. There were two reasons why. One is that we like him as an actor and the other is that many faces familiar along the Avenue are seen in it. We can always appreciate pictures that employ our folks. It begins to look like we are beginning to get some sort of an "break" in recognition of our increasing patronage of pictures. Yes we begin to like and enjoy this type of reciprical appreciation. However, this being one of those Night Club pictures with plenty of color borrowed from underworld and bowery with a smattering of old Harlem thrown in, we know it's going to be good. The director, Mrs. E. O. Griffith, assures us that the Colored people who worked in it, will get ample footage when it is screened. Among those who will be seen in "Captain Swagger" are Floyd Shackelford, John Turner, Martin Turner, Mammy Peters, Madame Sul-Te-Wan, Ada Penn and also the well-known Racketeer, D. J. Dumas Johnson, Watch for the booking. The Commentator The Commentator LINCOLN THEATRE "BLACK PEPPER" BEST YET; EM- MA HAWKINS NEWEST BLUES SENSATION Broomfield and Greely, sensational dance team, really please. The comedians, Amon David and Galli De Gasten, set the audience on their ears with tears of laughter. The real sensational of the evening (when I say "sensation") I mean every letter of the word) was Miss Emma Hawkins. People were astounded and amazed by the richness of her voice and the clarity of the tone as well as pleased by her blues. We appreciate the clever and dainty work of the chorus, and the beautiful changes of scenery at the most opportune times.

BOONE 10 DITED BY: LAWRENCE F. LAMAR DITED BY: LAWRENCE F. LAMAR At The "Met" Abounding in adventure, suspense, thdills, humor and romance is "Hot News." Bebe Daniels' latest starring picture which opens Saturday, June 30 at the Metropolitan Theatre. The story deals with the exploits of a newsreel camera girl who steps into her father's business at a crucial moment and saves him from ruin by "scooping" the other newsreel services at every turn. This, of course, leads Miss Daniels, who plays the newsreel girl, into many exciting adventures, all of which will amuse and entertain people in all walks of life. Notable among these hair-raising episodes is the one where Bebe and her leading man, Neil Hamilton, (who is incidentally, her rival) are perched at-top the statue of Liberty in an attempt to photograph in an incoming trans-Atlantic flier. The climax of "Hot News," too, is one that is warranted to give the most blase" movie-goer a thrill. Airplanes and government coast guard cutters are employed to make this an unusually spectacular finish, with Miss Daniels and Mr. Hamilton held prisoners aboard the yacht of the villain of the piece, Paul Lukas. "Hot News" is excellent screen fare not only because it is filled with suspense, humor, and hazardous situations from beginning to end, but also because it tells an authentic story of one of the most adventuresome professions in the world—that of a news-reel cameraman! The Metropolitan theatre wishes to announce the engagement extraordinaire of Ruth Roland, well known "Queen of the Serials," in person for one week starting Saturday. As a third Unit to this spectacular program, "Steps and Steppers," the much heralded Publix revue will be offered. Featured in this fast moving stage presentation are The Ten Manhattan Steppers, Ilomay Bailey, Chas Huey, Glenn and Jenkins, and Jules Buffano, the popular new guest conductor and master of ceremonies, who is winning hosts of new friends with every performance. The Paramount Club met with Mrs. Marcia Baumann, Mrs. Prince is back from El Centro, Mrs. Broussard was out with her new baby boy, and Mrs. Irving is the proud mother of a baby girl. The hostess served a dainty two course luncheon. B. G. C. The Bachelor Girls Club met at the house of Miss Robinson 941 E. 11 St. Business of importance was discussed. Our honored guest were the ex-members of the Club. Our plans were to organize an associated club with our ex-members. A delicious repast was served by the hostess.

She won several small metals on various beauty lectures and on personal hair dressing and hair cutting, besides answering 96 of the 101 questions asked her by the board. She was told by her brother Curtis Nero, that if she graduated from any one of the enterprises that she attempts, that he would give her a diamond ring. She won and says she will continue to. Next fall Mrs. Davidson will enter the dept. of music of U. S. C. She has accepted the position as beauty editor of the "Trouble Corner" column in the Western States Buyers Guides Magazine.

HUNT Friday, June 29, 1928 AU EXHAMSP NO MORE JUNK ON THE STREETS Once upon a time, it was quite common to see ragged dirty automobiles on the streets of the Eastside, especially were the cars driven by our group unpolished and with soiled window shields. But such is the case no more. Any time of day or night, Central avenue is lined with not only high priced cars owned and driven by members of our group, but likewise the cars of cheaper make are oilied, polished and altogether present a pleasant spectacle on the Avenue. Roosevelt was First President-Motorist William McKinley was the first President of the United States to ride in an automobile. But McKinley took only one short ride, just for the "experience" or riding in what was in his time considered more or less of a freak means of locomotion. Theodore Roosevelt was the first President actually to drive a motor car.

McCarroll In Business In Santa Monica (By Edna Rosalyne Heard) FORMER CALIFORNIA BANK EMPLOYEE OPENS GROCERY AND SODA FOUNTAIN IN SANTA MONICA Mr. Gilbert B. McCarroll, for nine years an employee of the California Bank located at Third Street and Santa Monica Boulevard, has resigned his present position to open a grocery store and soda fountain in his new building at Broadway and Eighteenth Streets. Twenty-one years ago, Mr. McCarroll came to Santa Monica from Boulder, Colorado. He has seen this little town grow to what might be termed a country site into a very beautiful and thriving community which is now one of the most fashionable beach resorts along the coast Like the town which he has chosen to call home, Mr. McCarroll has also progressed having accumulated real estate located in some of the most select sections of the Bay District. His first venture was the opening of a barber shop and a Ladies Pit Shining Parlor. This pit parlor is said by commercial travelers to have been the first in Southern California and the first of its kind this side of the Rocky Mountains. Previous to this unique and novel shining parlor, boot black stands were to be found only in front of barber shops and saloons, and were patronized solely by men. The pit idea made it convenient for women to receive shining service without climbing a tall and conspicuous boot black stand. Aside from Mr. Carroll's business activities he is a well known figure in lodge and church circles having been the first president of the club that organized the Royal Arch Masons in Santa Monice. He plans to open a grocery store and soda fountain Tuesday, July 3rd and his aim is to supply the public's needs and give them clean and efficient service. The public at large is cordially invited to attend the opening of Gilbert's Grocery opposite the Cresent Bay Lodge corner 18th and Broadway streets.

Baumann's Drug Store No.3 The Last Word Baumann's Drug Store No.3 The Last Word For beauty and efficiency of furnishings the new Baumann's Drug Store No. 3 in the Hotel Sonerville Building is unsurpassed by any in the city. It occupies the north east corner of 41st and Central with great low cut windows that afford a view from within as from without. The latest style sloping front show cases, the tessellation fountain with a beautiful tiled front in colors, comfortable stools for seventeen. Perfumes, cigar, and candy cases all corresponding with the general color scheme, while a complete line of goods as well as hot and cold refreshments make it complete from front to back. On the mezzanine are officers of Dr. Anna J. Leggett, chiropodist who comes here from her down town location after a number of years' successful practice. Dr. Alberta Baumann has thus added another link to one of the largest finest and best chain of stores run anywhere in the country by colored. "DISTORTED" POLITICAL POWER (Continued from Page One) "It accomplishes this not simply by disfranchising Negroes. The population in Southern states has doubled and by reason of woman suffrage the voting population ought to have quadrupled; but actually, as a matter of fact, the voting population has increased less than 50 per cent, showing that not only have two million Negroes been disfranchised but more than two million whites." Dr. DuBois quoted from an address of Henry W. Anderson, a white politician of Virginia, who asserted that in Southern States the qualification to vote is so limited that governors and other state officers are "sometimes elected by less than ten per cent of the population of voting age." "At the event of a presidential election," continued Dr. DrBois, "singular compilations are made. The Democrats can start out assuming the votes of 11 southern states with, at present, 124 of the 531 electoral votes. They need to fight therefore for only 142 electoral votes to have the majority of the electoral college. On the other hand the Republicans must leave out of account 142 electoral votes at the start and of the other 407 electoral votes they can afford to lose only 141." "But if this is the plight of the Republicans, what can be said of any Third Party? it simply has no chance at all." "As sure as fate some day there is coming in the United States a political controversy with social and economic roots which is going to open suddenly the question as to why the South has three times the political power of the West and why New England, with its disfranchised foreign workers, has more political voice than the West. The protest is not coming simply from Northerners or 'friends' of the Negro. It is even coming from the South itself. Hon. George Gross, president of the Denver Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. is in the city attending the National Conference. Mr. Gross is a friend of the editor of this paper of many years' standing. He is one of the wheel horses for race advancement in the great middlewest and one of the outstanding citizens of this nation...

The railroads have applied to the Railroad Commission for authority to lower their freight rates. It is sought by the railroads to place their freight rates on the same basis as those of the motor-truck companies. PSYCHOLOGY TAUGHT WAITERS A large hostelry in Berlin are conducting evening classes where all waiters and other employees who come into contact with the patrons how to handle the patrons in an approved manner. "Be courteous always and be sause and diplomatic at times and dont forget that patrons are human beings and not mere parcels." Remember your patrons may have jarred nerves through business worries, or may be they had a bad night EASTERN CARRIER MERGERS UN YEAR Consolidation plans of the New York Central, Pennsylvania, Baltimore and Ohio and Van Swerigen groups will be ready for submission to the Interstate Commerce Commission within a year according to Otto H. Kahn member of the firm of Kuhn, Loeb and Company. The present conference of Eastern executives will not result in any developments of importance. Mergers in the East will be physical ones, rather than through a holding company according to Mr Kahn and he feels confident that the Interstate Commerce Commission will grant approval for some such form of consolidation. WAITERS TO HOLE MEETING IN CLEVELAND Final preparations for the third annual convention of the National Association of Waiters and Hotel Employees, which is ti be held in Cleveland Ohio, August 21, 22, 23 have been completed. Several thousand delegates from all parts of the country will be in attendance and the gathering bids fair to take on momentous proportions. The association publishes a publication known as the National Hotel Gazette which is circulated monthly among the members. PULLMAN CAR' PORTER GIVES CHEER TO OLD FOLK'S HOME The daily kindness of Wilbur S Randolph veteran pullman car porter on the Toledo division of the Hocking Valley Railroad towards the old men inmates of an infirmary on his route was told in the Chesapeake and Ohio and Hocking Valley Employees magazine. The veteran has been on this division 25 years. His special friends are the old men in the Wyandot county home in upper Sandusky. Each morning Mr. Randolph collects papers and Magazines which passengers on the train have discarded makes them into a bundle and tosses them off to the old men at the infirmary who are always on hand awaiting the arrival of his train. The smiles and waving of hands as he passes are ample reward for him but these old men do not forget his kindness in keeping them in touch with the outside world and they remember him at Christmas time with a nice fowl from their floc. GIBSON LEAVE? FOR CHICAGO TOE! TOE! TOE! Blew the locomotive whistle on the Union Pacific Los Angeles Monday night. Hoot! Hoot! Hoot!

When Hoot and his gang of 250 broncobusters land in the windy city "Big" Bill Thompson, the mayor will be there to give him the key to the city. AIR-TRAIN SERVICE WILL START IVY 1 "Train-Plane" passenger service between Chicago and Los Angeles by way of Kansas City will be established July 1st, according to G. Hall Roosevelt. President of The Scenic Airways Company. REGRETS Mistakes we make and who does not make them? First in the loss or inconvenience caused by their having been made and second, by filling our mind with regret. It is sufficient that we pay for them our mistakes once; we are not bound to pay for them through regrets unless we foolishly let them dominate us. A mind filled, with regrets is a mind keyed to the repetition of old mistakes and the commission of new ones burdened with dead timber, it cannot tackle new timber with a well edged exe. No profit can be found in regrets there is no "saving grace" in them. The regrets of to day pave the way for new regrets tomorrow, until we are so busy regretting that we have neither the time nor the inclination to progress. Have a little funeral if need be, a sort of job-lot affair, and, with due cermony befitting of the importance they give themselves, bury your regrets, place a tomb-stone over them, and burn your back upon the cemetery SERVICE DE LUXE Mr. Jas. A. Gray, President of The Red Cap. Porters and Janitors Association For Better Service has been quite busy the past few days putting If You Fail To Read THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE You May Never Know It Happened in the final touches for rendering "Service De Luxe" to the delegates of the N. A. A. A. C. P., who will begin arriving on special, trains Tuesday and Mr. Gray says that it is the desire of his crews to render a service to this delegation that will go down in history, the organization is 100% and all are members of this wonderful organization and have arranged their shifts so that each one may be able to attend the sessions. RED CAPS DOINGS Mrs. John Wilson left on train 26, Saturday evening for an extended visit East, she will visit friends in Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, on her return home she will return through the South stopping at points in Mississippi and Louisiana. Mr. Wm. H. Young leaves on or about the first, Mr. and Mrs. E. Baldwin expect to leave about the same time, most of Mr. Young's time will be spent in Colorado and Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin will make many stops before their return home. Mr. F. Brown, W. H. Hughes, T. J. Irving, P. B. Drakeford are also planning vacations, Mr. Drakeford will visit his old country in Georgia. Mr. Wilson has been keeping rather late, he was seen to stop at Central Market the other evening and purchase a 35 pound melon, we are all wondering why The regular meetings of the Red Caps Association are held each first and 4th Tuesday Evening, the meetings are 90% in attendance, usually 60% is very good for us our Business meetings are held on the second Tuesdays, instruction and recreation meetings the 4th Tuesday. Mr. M. Lewis was appointed chairman of the Publicity Committee at the last meeting; so boys, watch your step or you may get in trouble at home. Head Porter, Mr. Brown, is sick listed this week. Messrs. E. Boutte and Rountree are en route to Minneapolis, since obtaining a leave of absence, they expect to be gone for 15 days. Carl says if the weather don't change. (We are wondering just what he means). Mr E. Dixon is studying music now, however he is progressing but as yet he has not learned to throw his voice. Mr. M. Lewis accompanied by his Chrysler are seen on the Avenue quite frequently these days. Miss Coleman, Assistant Principal of Booker Washington High School of St. Louis, left that city Friday after the closing of School L. A. bound, during her stay in the city she will be the guest of Mrs. Geo. Taylor. After a few days of rest she will matriculate at the University of Southern California taking an Academic Course BROTHENHOOD NOTES Comments from seasoned, experienced, hard-boiled, powerful railroad leaders such as: J. P. Noonan, President of the International Brotherhood President, T. C. Coshen, President of Switchcraft's Unified North America; W. G. Lee, President of the Order of Railway Conductors of America, have been received by Mr. Randolph, general Organizer of the Brotherhood; pledging the support of the American Federation of Labor. There has been some talk and gossip in some quarters that Mr. Greene, President of the American Federation of Labor, being insincere in his advice to the Brotherhood officials, this is tommy-rot as Mr. Greene's attitude in the porters strike maneuver was a signal, historic and courageous stroke of constructive labor statesmanship which has won the approbation and support of all liberal, intelligent and reasonable persons among the porters and the public who are seriously and genuinely interested in the porters welfare in particular and the Negro workers in general. HERE AND THERE Carl Watson of Oakland, formerly of this city motored down in a new Chrysler roadster to demonstrate to his many friends in railway circles that he had found the hen that laid the golden egg, during his short stay quite a number of the boys were in conversation with Carl and much elated over the progress that he is making on the North end. Chinese Maidens operating on the "Lark" between Los Angeles and San Francisco, are exempt from signing meal checks, there are no limitations on their selections from the menus. Mrs. E. Reeves, proprietress of "The Reeves" a Smart Shoppe in the Somerville Hotel has equipped this unique Shoppe with the latest creations of style coupled with class and quality, a line of shirts, ties, sox and handkerchiefs for gentlemen is also carried. Mrs. Reeves is the wife of E. Reeves, one of our Union Pacific Waiters and is deserving of the support from the many who go to make up the file and rank of the railroad circle. Mrs. Ethel Turzer, Maid on the "Santa Fe Chief," who has ben confined to her home in Chicago some few weeks from a paralytic stroke is convalescing, and it is expected that she will be able to resume her duties within the next few days. --- UNION PACIFIC GOSSIP Shirley Lewis, true to the promise he made Mrs. Blanche Mattison some few weeks ago, prior to the opening of her luxurious shoppe in the Somerville Hotel, that he would be the first customer to be manicured. Dr. Minor, one of our God Coast Stars of the Northwestern, was a visitor at the office on this trip. Doc seems elated over the opening of the new hotel. Fred Massey, on car President of the Northwestern, was confined his activities to Vernon and Central exclusively, the reason seems to be one of L. A.'s queens, may be Fred is contemplating an elopement. SOUTHERN PACIFIC DOPE Walter Rippeau a veteran of the Oakland district passed through the city Saturday on route to Houston. During Mr. Rippeau's career between trains he was constantly on the go looking for friends of long acquaintance unfortunately all on the list seated to be out of the city. Frank James, who has been ill some time left this week for Phoenix, Arizona to recuperate after three weeks of confinement. Fleetwood Scales was among one of the first to lunch on in "Hotel Somerville Cafe" before leaving for the dust, cactus and cayotes, Scales still seems to be having his large evenings, and from all appearances it looks as though this bachelor sheik will soon embark on the sea of matrimony. Eddie Williams remarked to some of his friends that he went motoring on his last relief day. But Eddie Hayes disputes our Edward—In the language of Hayes, he only went driving. Walter Holmes has just returned from El Paso and says that he is really glad to be back in the city of "Sunshine And." Ellis Bratton says that "Pigeon Season" is on, and that it behooves each and every one of us to be on our guard, as this bird may be dropped at any time (Brat really knows birds). Bennie Roberson (Pee Wee), Coffee Boy on Diner 10042, has stepped up a notch, a few weeks ago Pee Wee purchased a Banjo, last week a Bulk—it may be possible that his next purchase will be a radio—But his friends say that he squeezes the jack so hard that he does not have to buy a radio. Thos. Nash has returned to work after undergoing a few strenuous days of recuperation from wounds received fleeing from his assailant. Eddie Hayes has returned from a special trip to Mercedes. Ed. was quite elated when he discovered that he could get the market quotations from Hong Kong, and as usual the market slumped for Eddie. F. D. (Stranded) Robinson, is railing now for a few days since he missed out on the "Daylight." Mr. James Sexton has been assigned Relief Chef on Diner 19942 operating on the "Lark." Sexton formerly held this position before he was called to Texas on account of the death of his sister. We are gratified to see this young deserving man assigned to this position. William Spencer, formerly Chef on Diner 10085 has transferred to the "Argomut". Spencer will be missed by his many friends on this one night leap. Santa Barbara is planning a social function for the Fourth, a big rush of puddle jumpers and what-nots are negotiating at at leas begin the trip—Fortunately there are a number of towing stations on this particular highway. A certain waiter, on a one night run is patrolling the Lincoln Theatre District daily. The attraction seems to be a star who sports a Studebaker roadster. Burt (Hoghead) Johnson has donned a straw katy when this beaumrmel gets on the band wagon it is time for every tub. Leo Snowden expects his mother from the "Sunny South" to pay him a visit in the near future. It may be that Snowden will accompany her on her return as far as Dallas, the trip will be made by motor. SANTA FE SIDELIGHTS Clifton Johnson has returned to the rails again after an absence of several weeks in the Windy City, when interviewed Cliff was comfortably seated in a Yellow, and from the chatter that this Deacon puts out we are of the opinion that he still clings to his version of the three yellows—I named one the other two are up to you. The Santa Fe boys will not register in their new quarters in the Somerville Hotel until after July 15th. The Fred Harvey System was well represented the two days of the opening of the Somerville—The Reeves, Mrs. Cruse, Boone and Mattison, proprietors of up-to-date concessions in this magnificent hostelry were complimented and congratulated on their business voyage. Spats, monocles, wrist watches and what-nots were very much in prominence Sunday on the Somerville Promenade, most of these fads were produced by Sheiks of the "Chief"—the hip pocket hapkardkierch squad on the hand to greet all comers, the latter we will dedicate to the "California Limited." A certain product of the Santa Fe has arranged with Mrs. Addie Johns of the Somerville Beauty Shoppe for a water hair wave, as yet these have not become fashionable but nevertheless it is just around the corner but if he insists it will be done no quicker than he can get to her booth.

Top with a mound of favored whipped cream and a maraschino cherry or strawberry.

It seems that every time I open my mouth, some idiot begins to talk." Faux de Pas Friend (at French play) "Why did you applaud so vigorously when that comedian made his speech before the curtain?" Other friend (confidently) "So that folks would think I understood French." Friend "He said the remainder of his part would be taken by an understudy as his mother was dying."

SOUTH LOS ANGELES NEWS---CLUB DOINGS ---CHURCH AF FAIRS ---SOCIAL ACTIVITIES C. C. HOLMES SIGNAL MFG. CO. Los Angeles has an inventor in the person of Mr. C. C. Holmes, 1055 E. 11th St. who has invented a "Lighted Hand Signal" for Auto Trucks, and later expects to extend his pledge to include signals for automobiles. His patent has been indorsed by the Automobile Club of America, and the Motor League of Louisiana, Mr. Chas. H. Kelly, Chief of Police of Pasadena, who has also highly recommended his patent and states that it is the most practical Auto Signal yet invented. A number of years ago the inventor conceived the idea of the need of some practical device for signal purposes to be used on Auto Trucks. He immediately went to work on his proposition and in 1915 produced the Lighted Hand Signal on which he was granted a patent in Washington, D. C. He has held his patent in Colby yance pending preparation for production on a large scale. He and his Brother, Mr. B. C. Holmes, organized a company and have purchased and installed machinery for turning out this product in large quantities. Each year has seen an increase in the number of automobile accidents and hence an increase demand for some practical signal device to lessen these accidents. It is evident therefore that Mr. Holmes Lighted Hand Signal will be in great demand and this wonderful invention will add greatly to the safety of the traveling public and will also add another chapter to the Negro's contribution to Civilization. NEGRO NEWSPAPERS Newspapers today are regarded as a necessary household article for no home is complete which does not have more than one newspaper. It is strange, however that the newspapers which seem to be the favorite in the most of our homes are the sensational type with the glaring headlines that make caricature of scandal and crime. Especially is this true as it relates to the publications put out by the people of the other group who have no space or time to print anything about the Negro that would reflect or off upon the race but rather light in shader and gross misrepresentation. It is to be regretted that some of the publications put out by members of our own race are too often given to doing the same thing, yet it can't be denied that what credit it gives the Negro in his worthy accomplishments does come through the Negro Press. Knowing this to be true it still remains a mystery why Negro will spend from six to twelve at least a year for a paper put out by other people, who only consider the Negro sufficiently important enough to be mentioned in the Public Press. He has committed some crime or in some way acted as to referee or dit on the race, and will not pay 2 dollars a week for a publication put out by members of our own race that all of the good things, and the worthy accomplishments of the race. If there is an solve this mystery is to be and materially to the to the solution of the Kace Problem. WHY ADVERTISE One of the most difficult things for the vintage Negro business man to learn is the value of advertisement. The man in business today who does not advertise in slowly but surely closing the door of opportunity to the success of his own business. In these days when competition is so keen and so many attractive ways and means of spending our money is right right to the door through the inbox of advertising, people are not going much out of their way to look for some place to spend their money. The little store on a side street with a simple sign to indicate some thing to sale will not attract many customers, when through the medium of advertisement, we have a variety of things presented to us to select from almost any terms. It is evident that the business man who without advertising is waiting for the public to look him up to spend their money with him in order to show their race pride or loyalty or what ever they choose to call it, will soon find their goods rotating on the shelf and the Creditors putting a padlock on the door. GRANT CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH Rev. T. E. Jones, Pastor Sunday was Quarterly meeting. The Sunday school had a splendid attendance. At the eleven o'clock service the pastor poked from the subject: "The Significance of the Communion." Three petitions united with the church and many took the Communion. At three o'clock P. M. M. Rev. Ralph K. King, Pastor of Bethel A. M. E. Church on the West Side, preached a very inspiring sermon and the choir from his church furnished the music. At the evening service a large congregation was present and Rev. J. W. Price, Presiding Elder, preached a splendid sermon. Several who were not present in the morning took the communion. The Quarterly Conference was held Monday night. Splendid reports were read from all departments, which showed that the church is making wonderful progress. The Presiding Elder expressed his satisfaction with the reports read. MACEDONIA BAPTIST CHURCH Sunday School at 9:30 o'clock was very good with about 100 in attendance. Mrs. Irene Blodgette (teacher of Advanced Girls) is still in the lead. The Ford (class of Senior Boys) made a hundred yard dash and they are second to lead. The election of Sunday School officers was held, Mr. Knox was reelected Supt. for the ensuing year. The 11 o'clock services were very good. Splendid congregation and many visitors were present, and expressed their feeling as being at home in Macedonia. In the afternoon the Douglass Lodge No. 33 had their annual sermon in our church. Sermon preached by Rev. Beane of Los Angeles. His message was a masterpiece and seemingly enjoyed by all present. His message was very persuasive and many saw the necessity of being and becoming a Mason. This budge had a joint sermon with their chapter, the Eastern Star. At 6:30 BLY, P. U. opened its door and students showed intense interest in the lesson. The election of officers was postponed owing to the late ness of the hour. The Vice-President, Mr. Henry Henry, is requesting members to come out on time Sunday evening that we might have our election of offices. 7:55 we again reassembled for the closing of our services. Our pastor reached a wonderful sermon. We will celebrate our pastor's third anniversary beginning the 1st Sunday, ending Sunday night, July 8th. There will be special services every night at our church. Pastors and choirs from various churches of Los Angeles and suburban cities will be with us, and we are asking the whole of South Los Angeles to come out and help us to make this a real successful affair. As friends you owe it to us, and we owe it to our very worthy pastor, Rev. Curtis. For a rare treat on the wind up of our anniversary we will present "Joseph's obedience." Sunday evening, July 8th at 8 o'clock. All are requested to be present and asked to bring a special silver offering for this "Cantata." Delegates were elected last week from Grand Chapel A. M. E.

Several booths were beautifully decorated representing the lifelong season of the year. The Autumn and Summer booths took first prize respectively. A splendid program was rendered.

Crossing over to Woodyville, Mississippi, she will enjoy the meeting of old friends and it will be no easy task to break away! but as several points in Texas will be the finishing link of this wonderful trip and will be the complete obliteration of her stack of fealing cards, she will awake some morning and finding herself atar from dear old home, where her dear church and club friends able, and bangry for the sight of "Old Independent", it will be then and only then that she will turn her steps westward.

We only hope that Laclette will be able to tell us of the good times she evidently is having. Much success to Marion and congratulations. The mammoth chorus which Miss Caroline Snowden is putting over for next Saturday night, is really jam up, it couldn't help but be a success with such efficient young ladies as Esther Russell, Dorothy Patton, Corita Harber, Laise Chism, Carmelina Black, Martha House, and many others, Carolynne Sebastian Club chorus is The Silver Fox Club, the Lone Wolf Club and the Bean Brunnel Club, consolidated, and gave a little get-together dance at the Hummingbird Cafe on last Sunday evening. Mr. E. Prunus Guest, President of the Foxes did the honors of receiving while Mr. Louis Cole of the Foxes and Mr. Victor Jordan, President of the Lone Wolves, looked after the comfort of the guests. A three-piece orchestra kept the dancers continually on the floor, and members of the three clubs kept the punch bowl filled with delicious cold punch. All the young ladies, especially Misses Alicia Allen, Alice Pettus, Yolanda Column, Verna Lewis, Clementine Henry and Mrs. Gladys Butler looked very cool and lovely in their bright party dresses. The guests spent a very happy evening and the Posts were happy in having given their guests a pleasant evening's entertainment.

This is beyond doubt, the best planned and equipped auditorium west of Chicago, available to our group. The ventilation system is unsurpassed. The highly polished hardwood floors are without a flow.

JOHN'S DAY Last Sunday was a memorable one in Masonic circles, which was the occasion of the annual celebration of St. John's Day when the members of this fraternity turn out and render a program suitable, to the occasion and hear the annual sermon preached. Promptly at 2 P. M. the procession was formed at the Masonic Temple, 12th and Central and marched to the independent Church of Christ, Cor. of 18th and Palma streets, at which places the exercises were held. An outstanding feature of the turn-out was the presence of the new lodge only recently entered into the Masonic family whose numbers were by far larger than any of the other five older lodges; as a matter of fact the new lodge just about cutnumbered the entire turn-out of the other five's numbers. Arriving at the church a very splendid program had been arranged appropriate to the occasion. Various members of the order and of the Eastern Star made up a program which was indeed an inspiration and high credit to the order. Rev Napoleon P. Grego, the far-famed pastor and himself a leading light of Masonry, preached a most wonderful sermon, which to our way of thinking came nearer up to the standard for which Masonry stands. This has ever been spoken from the lips of man. Every word struck home and we are sure all who heard it came away immeasurably helped in heart and soul to join the battles for progress than ever before. It was indeed a wonderful day, a It was indeed a wonderful day, a wonderful sermon and a wonderful order. LINCOLN MEMORIAL CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH REV. E. E. LIGHTNER, Pastor Coner East Vernon and Hooper Ave. Dr. Elzora Gibson, of the N. A. A. C. P. will be the speaker at the morning service this Sunday, July 1st. At the evening service which comes at 8:00 o'clock the pastor will bring a brief message which will be followed by serving the Lord's Table. Strangers and visitors to the N. A. A. C. P. Conference especially invited to attend both services. A warm welcome awaits you. Health-O-Grams By a clean body we do not mean the skin only, but the entire body. We frequently hear someone say: "My hair has so much dandruff and is falling by the handsfull." How often this condition is due to uncleanness is hard to say but it is safe to say it is more often due to undermoss than any other factor. Why is this true? Because there is little if any friction on the scalp, the particles of skin which are cast off, have no way of being removed so they stay where they have been cast off and become saturated with oil from the hair folleces forming a very satisfactory media for incubation of germs which infect the scalp and hair felicies which are imbedded therein. Do we hear someone say how often should one's hair be washed? which is a question impossible to answer, other than this way? Often enough to keep it clean, taking into consideration employment and amount of dirt caused by class of one's employment. One part of body we wish to stress particularly is the mouth, because of its function and structure, the mouth is not easily kept clean. However, such a thing is possible and very, very necessary, because food particles left at root of the teeth to decompose forms an ideal place for incubation of germs, which follow down the teeth to its root causing an abcess which sooner or later causes loss of teeth by spreading of infection, this may be slow in happening but we have another consideration here which is as important reinfection of some other portion of body not necessarily adjacent thereto either, but should re-infection not take place the toxin of a mouth infection may be sufficient to break down organs vital to the body life. Let us use an example. A country physician came to hospital saying he was sure he had T. B. of stomach and bowels. When we examined him the X-Ray disclosed ten abcessed teeth, also ulcerated stomach and bowels caused from these teeth. The bowels being the natural habitat of certain germs should of necessity be kept clean. Take these thoughts into your mind for a while and see what conclusion you make concerning them. If you are filling or feeding the bowels three times a day can you empty it once a day (or maybe not at all) and keep a balance consistent with good health? Would you go to a party when you had not bathed your body for three or four days? Here is a common answer to the last question, of course not; the body odors would make my friends shun me. That is a true answer, but had you stopped to think why your friends avoid getting close enough, unless it can't be avoided to get the odor of your breath? Oh, but one says, "I have hallitosis." A very nice word, coined to advertise a product necessary in oral (or mouth) hygiene, but let us coin another word—Sewertosis. The latter word more often fits your case. It is not our purpose in these articles to give treatment of diseases as a little knowledge along the line of treating disease is sometimes harmful, however, we will suggest eating plenty of fruit, greens and most prepared breakfast foods which have sufficient roughness of surface to cause a slight irritation, also bulk enough to give body to fecal content. Questions addressed to this paper will be answered. The district conference of the Los Angeles district, of the Southwest Rocky Mountain Annual Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church will convene in the First A. M. E. Zion Church, Pico, and Palm Avenue Strects, July 5th to 9th, inclusive. A large attendance is anticipated. The District Conference will be of unusual importance and interest. First because of the very splendid program prepared for the occasion. Second because of the celebrities who are expected to attend the meeting. Three Bishops and their wives, four General Officers and a number of visitors who will be here from the East to attend the World's Sunday School Convention. They will appela at different times in addresses before the conference. On Monday July 9th the second Regional Church School convention will be held.

Our dear little Geraldine Julia Mac Johnson, who was born November 27, 1922 in San Antonio, Texas, passed away Wednesday evening June 13, 1928 at the Hollywood Children's Hospital. Geraldine, with her mother, Mrs. Catherine Johnson, came to this city three years ago and have since lived with her uncle and aunt, Reverend and Mrs. George Miller and grandmother, Mrs C. O. Lewis. Words are inadequate to express the beauty of this little life and only those who know her can really sympathize with the bereaved family.

Every Sunday morning at Sunday School and church, she had her little place and filled it beautifully. How well she sang that beautiful Negro spiritual "You got a robe" and "Taake Your Burdens to the Lord." Reverend Gordon, recognizing the little girl's sincerity and quality of personality often referred to her in his sermogs as a fit example to all calling them selves Christians. It is a very spiritual and lasting memory—this little girl's life. Merely a little bird unfolding daily and reaching out to the sun-shine for strength and happiness. Let the thought of this beautiful little life and the memory of all the happiness it brought to others, comfort these loved ones who know in their hearts that "God giveth and God taketh away." I cannot say, and I will not say. That she is dead. She is just away! With a cheery smile and wave of the hand And left us dreaming how very fair it needs must be, since she lingers there. And you—Oh you who the wildest yearn For the old time step and the glad return Think of her faring on as dear In the love of There as the love of Here Think of her still as the same I say She is no dead—she is just away.

THE NEGRO AT KAN, CITY (Continued from Page One) A colored delegate was assigned to make one of the four or five minute addresses seconding the nomination of Secretary Hoover. This he did creditably. I believe that this is the only instance where a Negro functioned conspicuously in the press. The race undoubtedly impressed resistance upon the Kansas City Convention, upon any like session since enfranchisement. We can hardly believe that in 1854, Hon. John R Lvach was chosen temporary chairman. As late as 1912, the late Henry Lincoln Johnson held the fate of the convention in the hollow of his hand. It was the emphatic and unswerving attitude of this hold black leader that determined the issue between Roosevelt and Taft, which put the Grand Old Party out of luck for the ensuing eight years. What a swift decent from the political heights of those days to low level of this day! But there is a darker semblance yet. The Negro is a all but eliminated as a dominant force in any of the states. Walter Cohen, the little pelican was hores was dethroned in favor of white leadership. He was personally allowed to retain his seat as a delegate merely to save the rebuttant part from the medium of throwing out a leading colored man without courtesy or consideration. Fen Davis lost the com mittemanship in Georgia. Perry Howard alone survives, but even his temporary success has no assurance in permanency. The slightest shift in the exigencies of the situation would have relegated him to the company of his forlorn defeated brethren. Throughout the South the lily whites are in the ascendency. In Virginia North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida and Texas, where the voice of the Negro delegates used to be heard at national conventions, alas, they are heard no more. The Negro politician has given up the ghost, without expectation, if not without hope of resurrection. The race owes President Harding an unrecognized political debt of gratitude. All had once before been on the Negro. When Judson Yon was thrown off the national committee by Lincoln Johnson, there was not a single Negro representative left in that August body. Lincoln Johnson fought his way to chieftainship. But when President Harding seized the reins of power, he decided to turn over to Negro control the states of Mississippi, and Louisiana. The nation committeeship in that state belonged to Cohen who by abnegation gave it to the very white man who has brought about his unrising. Such is political gratitude. But the outstanding fact remains, the Negro has been practically eliminated from trusteeship of the Grand Old Party. He is now holding on only by a tenuous thread which the scissors of political fate are ready to clip. There is little likelihood that this power will be restored. The great Republican Party, is a practical body, and excepting the Roman Catholic Church, is the most efficient organization on earth. It has no sentiment that will stand in the was of efficiency. It desires to build up a functioning Republican Party in every state of the union. Nowhere has this yet been accomplished under Negro leadership, certainly not since the days of Wright Cuney of Texas. The party in gervorously under white sponsorship. Negro leaders for the most part seem satisfied to traffic in delegates rather than build up strong local or organizations which will induce every Republican to vote in local as well as national elections, even under restrictions by revised constitutions. Theodore Roosevelt in his Progressive campaign, adopted the policy of placing in power, in the Soutnarr states the men who could best command the situation, regardless of race. But he found that they were mostly white men of local standing, courage and influence and wealth. It is needless for the would be Negro leader to hark back to the sentimentality of a bygone age. In politics as elsewhere it is a cage of the survival of the fit-test. The loss in the South is partially offset by gains in the North. The vital difference is that the Northern delegate must needs speak with a dictated voice. He is in the hopeless minority in everystate and must follow the fortune of party bosses. There is little or no latitude for racial independence. Guam oui oui oui am monos puy must be devised an entirely new set of reasons and arguments for racial support of Hoover and the Grand Old Party. Appeal to Lincoln and Sunner and Grant will not sway Negro votes as it did. Extravagant prophecy of what the new administration is going to do for the Negro has been done to death in previous campaigns with sad disillusionment. Only the simple will bite at that bate. Denunciation of the Democrats and dread of Southern fire eaters, if Smith succeeds, will no longer frighten the simple. The Sothern fire eaters eat as much fire under Republican as under Democratic national authority. There are sufficient sound reasons and good sense why the Negro should, in this campaign, prefer the Republican to the Democratic party, why Hoover should be chosen rather than Smith. But the Negro spellbinder must learn new speech. The one which he used for the past forty years has lost its spell and potency. KELLY MULLER June 21, 1928, Washington D. C.

The checkup disclosed the fact that only TWO CANDIDATES had filed in the 74th District for the office of Assemblyman. Those two were F. M. Roberts, the present incumbent (who has held the position for the last ten years) and Joseph B. Bass, who will oppose him. To those who were fearful that group representation might be endangered by two well known citizens in contest, this is cheering news as no danger now lurks for it is a If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA SHERIDAN A. BRUSSEAUX HAROLD M. TYLER straight away race between the two gentlemen named above. Mr. Roberts in his announcement states he is running on his record. Mr. Bass accepts the challenge and claims he has been there so long that he has gone stale and his record is a dud. Mr. Bass further states that Mr. Roberts is failing woefully in aggressiveness for the people of the district whom he represents and points to the fact that in ten years Mr. Roberts cannot point to one single outstanding accomplishment for any of his constituents in the State government, neither has he used his influence as Assemblyman to further the cause of anybody for any position in either state county or national government. Mr. Bass claims further that Mr. Roberts is at a standstill that the perch he is roosting on has become foul and that he in a general way has outlived his usefulness and the District wants a new deal and some real progress. This situation will be put up to the voters for their decision at the Primaries, August 28th. Along the line Mr. Bass promises to prosecute a clean and disqualified campaign, calling for action and the general good for the people of the 54th Assembly District.

Clerks are enspirited by the very announcement for such pleasure and anticipation of the event keeps them on their toes while at work. Even after the great day ends and the prospect of the work day dawns, there is a new kind of enthusiasm for the job at hand.

Host Overrun Huge Philharmonic Auditorium The opening Session of the National Conference of the N. A. A. C. P which held forth at the great Philharmonic Auditorium on last Wednesday evening proved the greatest gathering in the history of the great organization. It is estimated that fully 4000 persons were turned away when the big Auditorium proved inadequate to hold the people who turned out for the initial Conference program. This in PETER H. DR. H. C. HUDSON President Local Branch Who delivered memorable welcome Address face of the fact that the Philharmonic accommodates 3500 persons. The high light of the evening was the remarkable address by Dr. W. E. D. Du Bois, editor of the Crises. His subject "The Presidential election Blacks Votes and Democracy, in the United States" elicited the closest attention and the distinguished editor and scholars received an ovation at its conclusion. This writer has heard Dr. Dubois on many occasion and we can testify to the fact that his of A. E. DR. W. E. B. DUBOIS Who delivered one of the Greatest Addresses of his Entire Career fort of Wednesday evening was the most splendid and wonderful which we have ever heard. The great and mighty chorus of more than 500 voices comes in for a major mention and bears up all advance notices of Prof. Barthtt's ef- ficiency as a mussel director. Dr. C. H. Hudson proved equal to the occasion as a master presiding PETER H. ARTHUR B. S.PINGARN Vice President of aNational Body officer, his presentation of the mayor was an epic and his adroit handling of the entire program was indeed worthy of special commendation. The mayor's address of welcome was all that one would wish and made the delegates happy to be here. A. E. DEAN WM. PICKENS National Field eSecretary was second only in its reception to that of Dr. Duflois and brought the audience to the high st pitch of enthusiasm. She was strong, true and sincere. She too received a mighty ovation at the conclusion of her remarks. James L. Miller of Pasadena excelled in song, likewise Mrs. Freddie Hall Stanley of Salt Lake City, and Mrs. Naomj Pharr of this city. Miss Wiener in preclude was heartily received. Mrs. Laveria Patton at the organ displayed her remarkable genius. THURSDAY MORNING'S SESSION As we go to press the first session at the Second Baptist Church was well under way. Mrs. A C Richardson, read a very able paper on the subject: "How to keep the Branch Interested and Vigorous When There is no Local Crisis". Mr. Richardson handled this subject well and great credit is due her for the thoughts brought out. The paper created quite a lively and beautiful discussion.

BEN SONALLY GREAT Tuesday night, June 26, 1928, goes down in Los Angeles history as one of the biggest and grandest openings seen here. The beautiful building located between 40th and 41st on Central avenue, next to the new Hotel Somerville, houses one of the Best dance pavilions in the West, barring none. It is both owned and operated by colored people, Mr. O. E. Brookins, one of the pioneers of Los Angeles, being the sole owner of this imposing structure that bears his name. Some of the better features offered for the comfort of patrons is ample dance space, the easy method of providing plenity of light and air—the air is constantly changing—for the dancers, the setting aside of space apart from that used for dancing for tables and seats—banquet style. Still another winning feature is the walls which are sound proof. This is done in order that wherever sound is thrown against the walls it is assured the correct amount of reverberation. A large crowd was there for the opening. Good music was provided and everyone enjoyed a pleasant evening. The people have at last been given what they clamored for—a real, clean, well-lighted and ventilated dance pavilion. Aside from the regular nights, Tuesday and Thursday, it is to be rented to private parties. BUD TAYLOR Still bantamweight champion, in spite of the National Commission's ruling.

A jazz orchestra on the mezzanine floor overlooking the grill and lobby played throughout the evenings. Stiffly starched waitresses hurried over the highly waxed dining hall floor. The beauty salon created sincerely admiration.

COAST CHAMPIONSHIP ENVIED TITLE LONG TOM HAWKINS LOSFS TO CALIFORNIA THUNDERBOLT BY: TED STEINMANN (In the San Diego Union) SAN DIEGO, June 16—Neil Clisby San Bernardino colored heavyweight, made it three victories in four starts against Long Tom Hawkins, San Diego, last night, when he won the decision over the local mauler in 10 rounds at the Coliseum Athletic club. One previous meeting was a draw. The bout was a slow affair for the last five ronds, both battlers taking the defensive. Clisby won, and won clearly, in our opinion, though one judge gave the verdict to Hawkins. Clisby won by landing the cleaner punches and onboxing Hawkins. HAWKINS DOWN A penchant for going into close quarters and staying there cost Clisby a set eye in the fourth round, and it bothered him some the rest of the way. With this canto ended, the fighting, except for brief flurries, one in the eighth finding Hawkins down for no count. Toby Josephs Gets Mid Night Benefit Show For N.
