Danger Lurks Around Corner For Eastside Property Owners GROUND BREAKING A HISTORICAL EVENT VOLUME 42 Eastside citizens had better awake from their slumber as the vital interest of every resident property owner is threatened by the proposed zoning law now before the City Council. Are we going to let unsightly laundries, little fondries, ugly casket factories, box and other cheap industries cause us to lose our magnificent close, in easily accessible Eastside homes, while we are fast asleep? At a meeting in the City Council on August 6th, there appeared the following representatives of our group representing over half a million dollars of valuable property interests: Secretary Greene of the Y. M. C. A., 28th and Paloma; Rev. Thomas Griffith of our magnificent Second Baptist Church, 24th and Griffith; Titus Alexander; Charlie Blidgett, owner of valuable Eastside properties and Miss E. Gertrude Christman, teacher and owner of the Christman Apartments on 21st St. and the Christman Flats on E. 2nd Street. The question involved was the changing of the residence section bounded by Washington, Adams, San Pedro and Griffith to an industrial zone. While property owners in this section, objecting to the influx of the great numbers of our group, are attempting by tireless effort, night and day, the circulating of petitions and other means, to get this section rezoned so that they may move out and put an unsightly gargues against our beautiful apartments, churches and homes so that they may buy in a section where we are at present restrict from buying. Colored citizens, what are we going to do about it? Just a few years ago at a small cost, our group might have purchased a large area of ocean frontage. The Bruces were far-sighted enough to do this, but on account of overpowering influence, they were forced out of their beautiful beach property. Mr. and Mrs. Bruce came to Los Angeles and have purchased homes and built beautiful flats, only to find them threatened with little cheap factories and other unsightly industries. This territory will be years developing as industrial property and what few cheap industries will be only ugly blots upon the community for years to come. This beautiful East Side property with its excellent "U" car service will eventually become the most valuable and the most beautiful of our group in the city, with the thousands of dollars worth of improvements being invested in this and adjacent territory for churches, homes, apartments, Y. M. C. A. and other public buildings. Citizens—property owners.—this is your fight—get together—sign the petitions for keeping this district free for our group for homes, apartments hotels, a Y. W. C. A. some day, and other beautiful and valuable buildings. Petitions will be found at the Blodget Realty Co., 2506 Central; Chrisman Apartments, 1328 E. 21st St.; Second Baptist Church, 24th and 69th; Y. M. C. A., 28th and Paloma. Sien and Save the District! The Eldorado Gold Star Mining Co. Makes Announcement That all machinery necessary to put its Mill Plant in operation, including cyanide tanks, amalgamating plates, concentrating tables, pumps, engine, and one-half mile of piping for the purpose of conducting water to the plant, have been recently bought and shipped to the property by the manager, and being installed under the direction of a competent and efficient mill man, who will have the oversight of the operation of the plant. Should there be no setback the plant will be in operation at an early date, turning out gold and silver bulbion. The manager has overhauled the big engine and other machinery purchased heretofore, and put same in good working shape. Stockholders who are interested, are hereby given notice to complete their contracts at $1 per share before the price is advanced. HOWARD FOLKE, Secy. HOWARD FOLKE, Secy. N. A. A. C. P. Will Carry Important Case To Higher Courts For Decision N. A. A. C. P. Will Carry Important Case To Higher Courts For Decision In order to have a final test which involved seven separate points breaking down the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States the local Branch or the N. A. A. C. P. has appealed from the decision of Judge Deiy, Department 48, sitting in the Superior Court of this country, and will go direct to the Supreme Court and if necessary to the U. S. Supreme Court. The case in question is Lettman vs. Gilmer, and has to do with discrimination contracts for land and etc. The whole situation brings up a new theory of law not hereof presented in similar cases. To with While it is admitted that the 14th Amendment applies only to actions by a state, it is contended in this defense, that is as much as the courts are an arm of the state, the judicial part thereof, it cannot uphold by judicial decision, discriminatory contracts, which the state itself could not create. Counsel for plaintiffs are Parker and Moote, Noren Baton. The N. A. A. C. P. has engagen the following talent to represent the defendant Gilmer; Robert P. Stewart, Lewis K. Beeks, Robert M. Cordell. State Highway Commission Suffers Peck Aliens to Force Segregation Among the Workers A short time back possibly ten days ago Perry Kay, the son of one of our pioneer citizens, was employed as a laborer in Division 7 of State Highway construction. This work is located on the Ridge Route and hundreds of men are employed on the job. Perry Kay reported for work at the agreed time and immediately the crackers and foreigners held a consultation and informed Mr. Garris, the foreman, that they would not work if the boss insisted on keeping this BLACK AMERICAN on the job. Mr. Garris, thereupon dismissed young Mr. Kay. The question is, will the great State of California continue to yield to the petty prejudices of the Southern Pecks and foreigners against rights and claims of 100 per cent American citizens citizens when seeking work as workmen upon the public highways of this State. LATEST FLASH Prominent Church Worker Struck By Auto Mrs. L. B. Hurley of 542 N. West lake Avenue, prominent member of historic Eighth and Towne Church, was struck late Thursday afternoon by a small car, driven by L. Criss, of 559 Huntington Drive. Mrs. Hurley was struck as she attempted to cross the intersection of 16th and Central Avenue* on her way to visit friends. Mr. Criss, the driver of the car, quickly loaded Mrs. Hurley into his can, and hurried her to the Georgia Street Emergency Hospital. Mrs. Hurley was treated for a slightly lacerated scalp and was able to continue her visit. For the latest look to the Eagle. FUTURE HOME OF THE GOLDEN STATE GUARANTEE FUND INSURANCE CO. RE ERECTED ON THIS SITE In a short ceremony at its lot located at 4100 Central Avenue, Los Angeles, ground was broken for the new Home Office of the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company Tuesday, August 7 at noon. This epocal event set a new standard for Negro, Achievement in the West and stabilizes Los Angeles as the center or financial development on the Pacific Coast. GOLDEN STATE GROWTH The growth of the Golden State Insurance Company has been one of the outstanding business romances in the country. Wm. Nickerson, Jr., the organizer of the Company, working with Geo. A. Heavens, Jr., and Norman O. Houston, as assistant organizers, started work early in 1925 to qualify the Company as a legal Insurance Company operating under the laws of the State of California. Meeting all State requirements and associating with them a group of well-known and sound business men as directors, the Company received its Certificate of Authority to operate as a licensed Company on July 23, 19925. The support given the organizers by the forty-one Contributors and the six hundred Charter Members, who voluntarily contributed their money and placed their applications for insurance in the unorganized Company, in order that it could qualify, is one of the high points in our group's cooperative efforts to create business institutions. The growth of the Company enumerated as follows justifies the faith and confidence of the people responsible for its organization. In 1925 the entire income of the Company including investments was $24,151.60. This was increased to $60,134.40 in 1926 and in 1927 the surplus reached $108,345.87 while the surplus mounted to $25,500.65. At the present rate the 1928 income should reach $150,000.00. Since organization 12.347 policies have been issued and $75,198.85 has been paid in sickness, accident and life losses to members or their beneficiaries. EXPANSION Starting in a little 12x14 office at 1435 Central Avenue, the Company's growth soon forced it into larger quarters at its present address, 3512 Central Avenue, with office space of 1400 square feet. During the past year, this space has proven inadequate for the growing organization MISS MUCKELROY IN REGITAL The L. U. W. T. Club will present Miss Roena Muckelroy, dramatic gorpoane, in recital Thursday, August 16, 1928, 8 P. M., at Ward Chapel A. M. E. Church, 1250 E. 25th St. Carol O. Weaver, Director; A. E. Liles, phasctor; Mary Ransom, Pres. Admission 25 Cents. and the Directors decided to purchase a suitable lot and erect thereon a building that would not only house the ever growing force in a modern office building, but that would stand as a symbol of the permanency of the Golden State Insurance Company and a credit to Negro business achievement. The building itself will be a two-story brick and concrete office building of Spanish design, the Company occupying the entire upper floor of 4,250 square feet. Three stores at moderate rental will be jooated on the ground floor. The Company expects to occupy its new offices about November 10th. EMPLOYMENT The economic influence that the Golden State has in this State can best be shown by how it is constantly absorbing into profitable employment an ever increasing number of qualified young men and women. Starting in 1925 with a total of fifteen employees the Company now has three active officers, seven clerks and stenographers, twelve committeemen, ten medical examiners, seven superintendents, one claim adjuster, one accountant, sixty agents for a total of 100 employees. To those people who were unable to become Charter Members, and to those who would care to share in this epochal achievement, the Company is preparing a special Home Office-Building policy. This policy will be beautifully engraved with an etching of the Home Office Building in the center. Gold coupons will be attached to reduce the premium, a feature never before offered our people by any Company in this State. All modern provisions including a permanent and total disability clause are in the policy and the usual legal reserves will be maintained by the Company. It is planned that only a limited number of these special policies be issued. An announcement to this policy with full particulars is expected at an early date. Dr. Bray, Sec. Gen't C. M. E. Conference Bd. Of Education, Visits Los Angeles Dr. James A. Bray, general secretary-Treasurer of the General Conference Board of Education of the C. M. E. Church, has been a Los Angeles visitor for the past six weeks. Dr. Bray has been president of two of the leading schools of the C. M. E. Homer, Jr., Son Of Mr. And Mrs. Homer Garrot, Attacked By Drug Store Clerk On Wednesday, July 28th, Homer L. Garrott, Jr., in company with a friend, Arthur Rottnerf, entered a drug store located at 48th and Central to make a purchase. It is alleged that the clerk did not give them immediate service and waited on several customers who came in after them. When they commented upon this, and Arthur, a white boy, reached toward the fountain to get a drink, the clerk became angry and struck Arthur. Homer being frightened, ran north on Central, F. P. Eglacias, the clerk, overtook him a block away, knocked him down and injured his head and left arm. Mrs. Garrott, upon learning of the assault, went to the drug store to adjust the matter. She states that the clerk was coarse and insulting, admitting that he struck the boy and expressed no regrets. A complaint was issued against Eglacias and he was tried for battery in Division 5. Tuesday, August 7th before Judge Reed, who found him guilty as charged. In the court room, Mr. Plato, the proprietor of the drug store, approached Mrs. Garrott and stamped his approval of the clerk's action an stated, "If I had been there I would have kicked them out myself." Fortunately for young Garrott, the stopping "U" car and the alighting passengers at the time of the attack, probably save dhim from a more severe beating. Connection, Lane college, Jackson, Tenn., and Miles Memorial College, Birmingham, Ala., serving the former four pears and the latter five. He has been in his present position as general secretary of all the schools of his connection for fourteen years having been elected four times con- secutively. He appears before the big philanthropic boards o f the country as Gen. Education of N. Y., Jno. Slater Board, Renovalw Fund, Board of Missions of the M. E. Church and others. There are 11 of these schools located in Va., Ga., Ala., La., Miss. Tex., Okla., Ark., Teen., and N. C. They are free from mortgages and are conservatively estimated at 2% million dollars, a student body of more than 3,000 and annual budget of $250,000.00. (Continued on page 5) Warrants and Police Not Used When Federal Officers Invade Homes MUCH INTEREST BEING MANI FESTED BY CITIZENS WHO FAIL TO UNDERSTAND ATTITUDE OF PROHIBITION OFFICERS Federal Prohibition Agents have been busy on the East Side all of this week and according to a close tabulation, have arrested many persons of our group on charges of sale and possession of illicit liquor. Among them were Seve Hendricks, Matt Johnson and Joseph Harris, Hendricks and Harris both conduct businesses on Central Avenue. Johnson was arrested after a telephone call to 2335 Eighth street, the home of Harry Mouton on where Federal Officers were waiting to receive and arrest. An amusing incident was recited by Johnson over his arrest when he stated that the Federal Officer who paid him for the liquor which was $7.00 for a gallon, counted him four $1.00 bills, telling him here was $4.00 of the $7.00, and here is the other $3.00, referring to his official badge which he flashed at that time. According to the story told by the men arrested, the Federal Officers were acting without search warrants and not accompanied by a city policeman, which is considered strange because such action is absolutely against the law. According to the story told by Hendricks, the 6th St. Federal Officers invaded his home at 1304 E. 47th street, without a warrant, and for two hours searched his home from top to bottom, ramsacking everything and overturning furniture and wrecking things in general. They were abusive and disrespectful, even cursing Mrs. Hendricks in spite of her admonition against the use or foul language in her presence, and demanding that they conduct themselves as gentlemen while in her home. The affair has aroused keen interest, not only among the bootleggers, but is being watched closely by those who are interested in the proper method of law enforcement. REMEMBER! Woman's Day, the 4th Sunday in August at the First A. M. E. Church, Eighth and Towne Ave. Keep this date in mind. Good Woman's Day Program. On The Sidewalk By: C.A. B. The Black Brute Turning White American newspapers for nearly a half century spread the propaganda that Black Men were f旗ish brutes who preyed on white women and children; and there were those who were wont to believe this sort of thing. But with such harless criminals of the types of Hickman and Kelly—Black seems to be white and white black. Each age is marked by some outstanding event or succession of events; for instance, the Elizabethian period in England—off the crime wave continues to sweep America this age will go down in history as the Age of Crime. It seems the inevitable that "What ye sow, ye shall reap." Whites Strike—Colored Girl Dismissed Forty-seven white student ushers at University of Wisconsin Theatre went on a strike this week when a colored girl member of the Student Body was dismissed from service because some of the Theatre patrons did not choose to be seated by a Colored girl. Good lesson in Americanism. California Women at National Association of Colored Women When the ssixtenth Biennial Convention of the National Association of Colored Women assembled at the National Capital, August 2nd, conspicuous among the delegates were our own Ester Jones Lee of Oakland and Elizabeth Edwards of Los Angeles. The opening session of this great gathering of Colored women from all sections of the country was held at the Armstrong High School with Mary McLeod Bethune, presiding. It is needless to say that this was a history making session, for it is well known that step by step, Colored women are advancing towards that goal that speaks for their proper seating in Legislative, Social and Religious Halls of Fame. The National Association of Colored Women has as its object four cornered training for women; hears in its routine it is attempting to deal justly with the women who sacrifice time and money to be present at these deliberations. From time to time, some of the best prepared women are placed at the head of the Ship of State, hence at this session Mary McLeod Bethune steps down and Sallie W. Stewart steps in, takes hold of the helm, promising to steer straight along the line of progress which will ultimately end when the goal which these varied Colored American women seek shall have been reached. Among the offices passed out to delegates Mrs. Ester Jones Lee was elected Auditor. Why Editor Base Should Be Seated No, J. B. Bass did not run the streets of Los Angeles as a boy. He was ripe in age having already donned his ball pate when he came to, what he terms, the wave-washed shores of the Pacific. However, since coming to California, some sixteen years ago he has so demonstrated his ability to bring things to pass that he has become one of the best known individuals in the State. It was the valiant fight made by Editor Bass that caused that hooded menace, known as the Ku Klux Klan, to take a back seat in affairs of this City and State. And while others slept at the switch in the Edward Glass case, it was Editor Bass who wended his way to Sacramento and prayed Gov. Young not to return this Black Man to Oklahoma where men are not given a fair trial] at the bar of justice. Now, if this man can accomplish this much single handed and without the approval of his State it is an established fact that he will be a worthwhile servant in the Assembly of the 74th District as we believe it will, in his favor, August 28th.

LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, AUGUST 10, 1928 ```markdown ``` Page-Ten LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRID THE BLACK SPORT WORLD THROUGH THE EYES OF HAMILTON ART Since Tunney has vacated his title and left the crown for the third, second and first raters to scramble over, just who have we to take up where Gene left off? There's Johnny Risko, Jack Sharkey, Tommy Loughan, the light heavy-weight champ, Young Stribbling and the only real contender, George Godfrey. Some say that Jack, the Dempsey, may take one more fling and that Luis Angel Firpo, the Bull of the Pampas, will answer the call. Johnny Risko has been going pretty good having won over Godfrey recently, although from Eastern reports he was made a present of the decision. Tommy Loughan has championship qualities but we don't think he could stand the gaff of the big time. Loughan showed that he was a real champion when he got off the floor after two downs from Leo Lomski to take the nod, after a hectic battle filled with thrills from start to finish. Young Stribling has never been anything but an in and outer and from past and present performances that's all he ever will be. So that lets him out. To get down to bare facts, Godfrey is the one and only logical man for the title, but what chance has he at it? Tex Rickard will not allow him in his eliminations and Tex is the boy that makes the king pins in the heavyweight division. Godfrey lost his last bout to Risko —As said before, the Shadow was robbed in but a way it's all his fault. If George isn't made to extend himself he just won't do his best. The Shadow is due to battle Paulino in Spain some time this month in a ten-round set to. Jimmy Black, the Gate City Cyclone takes on Luis Ramos, one of Zorilla's countrymen in the windup bout at Culver as we start press. Black weighs 118 now is going better than his best. He has a sharp-shooting left hand and if Ramos isn't a little faster than Jimmy's last foe it's going to be too bad, and how? The Gate City boy hits hard and plenty hard with a right hand also, so we believe Luts is in for a busy night. Nell Clisby, the California Thunderbolt fights Mike Arnold at San Bernardino. Thursday night. Not much is known of Arnold, except that he is a big, young, heavy-hitting boy from the East. Arnold lists among his fights, bouts with Harold Mafs, sparring partner of Gene Tunney and Young Stribling. He lost decisions to both of these men; but he boasts of knock-out victories over Bear-Cat Wright, colored heavy-weight; Bill Hartwell and Ad Stone. From all indications Neil has anything but a set up. THE COMMENTATOR THE COMMENTATOR "SAM FROM BAM" SUGGESTS THE BEGINNING OF THE END "Sam From Bam" might have been a most wonderfully written comedy-drama. I would say in defense of the producers, but whoever wrote the continuity surely didn't know what it was all about. There was absolutely no plot produced sufficient to justify the title. If these people who are rapidly approaching the end of their engagement have exhausted all of their good plays, don't let them burden the patrons with medicine acts, let them reproduce some of the most successful plays already played here. Nevertheless there was some sparkling moments on the bill. That clever comedy team, Davis and DeGaston, kept the audience in an uproar. Davis did the title role and DeGaston the part of the wife. You know Galli doing this role, clever! Emma Hawkins nearly ran amuck singing a tight blues number. She can really sing! The chorus augmented with three new faces continues to charm and please their audience. Edith Spencer still dominates the stage with that personality plus. PIG LABOR DAY PIC Wright, Manager. * * Eating Contest, Sack If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA·EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened REEL PREVIEWS AND REVIEWS SHACKELFORD STEALS SOME OF BUTLER'S THUNDER To Handle The Avenue End of Index To Handle The Avenue End of Inde nendent, Casting, Agency pendent Casting Agency Heretofore, every evening around six o'clock, a large number of the motion picture boys could be seen standing in front of the Entertainers Cafe awaiting the arrival of Butler. Here they would congregate for the purpose of allowing him to give them that kingly once over hoping to be sent the next day on some job. Butler was sole proprietor of the Thunderous Hammer of Thor. Not now, though! Shackellier has cut in and stolen some of his thunder. The growing importance of "Shack" occasions the lessening pretige of Butler. The gang is now divided. They all know Bobby Webb, the head of this Independent, Casting Bureau, and know that he will get as much money as possible for them. Why shouldn't they seek out Shack? Bobby Webb did the casting for Vum Stehelm in "The Wedding March." so he must know his stuff. He knows the game. Shackelford now has a job that will eventually use a mob of about 50 people. That's going to make him really important. Oh, boy, I mean! TOM FARRELL GETS PART IN "THE RAINBOW" A REGINALD BARKER PRODUCTION BARKER PRODUCTION Tom Farrell is rapidly forging to the front as he gets the breaks. Many of us get a "break" and don't know what to do with it or are not prepared to take advantage of it, but not so with Tom. All along he has been grooming himself and acquainting himself with all the details of the industry so as to be ready to step into the breach when the "break" came. He has done that little thing! Five days out on the desert with the Reginald Barker Co, with that great individual himself wielding the megaPhone, is enough to insure the gang, when Mr. Barker says "O. K." it must be such. Jh in this latest picture, "The Rainbow," Tom does a porter and a cook. The whole company went wild over him. Tom, on account of his ability and size, standing 6 ft. 1 and weighing 200 lbs., is just the type that most directors are seeking. Go it Tom, you can make the grade! ELI REYNOLDS DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE LENGTH OF DIRECTOR WALSH'S HONEYMOON I have never seen a man so interested in the affairs of another as Ell Reynolds exercises in Raoul Walsh, one of Wm. Fox's prominent directors. Questioning Ell as to why he worries so, he replies: "I want him to hurry back and start his next picture. I've got a part in it and you know I need the money!" That's a good reason. Mr. Walsh has become one of the most popular directors known along the Avenue, through Ell Reynolds. Not only Mr. Walsh, but John Ford and the entire Wm. Fox Studio. Mr. Walsh's next picture is to be made with movietone. Ell is rarin' to break into this new field. Mrs. Gail Thompson, formerly of "The Hotel Somerville Beauty Shoppe" announces to her many friends and patrons her connection with "The Auditorium Beauty Shoppe" with a booth equipped with the most modern electrical appliances to care for your beauty needs.

This is Lawrence Criner who has won fame and glory with this company. People who have lived in Los Angeles for any length of time, will certainly remember Lawrence who grew up here. He is the eldest son of Mrs. Laura Criner of 1422 E. 15th Street. Mr. Criner was one of the original members of the old Dramatic League from which, no doubt, he received much of his valuable early training. He has had considerable experience in motion pictures here, which probably accounts for the tremendous successes he has had in pictures in the East. We welcome you home! Jazzland!

SOUTH LOS ANGELES NEWS---CLUB DOINGS CHURCH AFFAIRS SOCIAL ACTIVITIES ```markdown ``` Page Two SOUTH LOS ANGELES CHURCHES South Los Angeles has churches of almost denomination. Anyone locating here need have no fear of finding their own church. We really have more churches than we can successfully support. However each in its own way is endeavoring to do something towards the development of the religious life of the people. Two of these Churches, Macedonia Baptist Church, Rev. L. M. Curtis, Pastr, and Grant Chapel A. M. H. Church, Rev. T. F. Jones, Pastor, are especially active in promoting the work of the Citizens' Council and Industrial League for the general welfare of the entire community. Meetings of the Council are held alternately at these two churches each month. Through their support of the organization all meetings have been largely attended. These Churches are working together in many other ways to develop a spirit of co-operation among the people. A recent exchange of pulpits of these two pastors has had a tendency to stimulate a greater interest among the people, to co-operate on even a larger scale to put over a large community program. SOUTH LOS ANGELES SCHOOLS One of the principal factors in the development of any community is good schools. In this, South Los Angeles ranks among the first of any district in the city. David Starr Jordan High School is one of the best buildings and one of the best equipped, to be found in Southern California. Being one of the latest buildings in the city to be erected for High School purposes it is modern in every respect, and still other buildings are to be erected in the near future which will greatly add to the capacity of the school. As for elementary schools South Los Angeles has a number of them. Fine buildings, well equipped and a splendid group of teachers. These schools are splendidly located so that children from any part of the district find it convenient to reach their school without the inconvenience of walking long distances. Students attending the High School from the out-lying districts have free bus service. Night schools are also conducted at the High School and some of the elementary schools, for the benefit of adults and those who are unable to attend the day schools. Since the doings of South Los Angeles are being given considerable publicity through the columns of the CALIFORNIA EAGLE on the SOUTH LOS ANGELES PAGE, interest in the paper has been greatly increased in this locality. Through the office of the Citizens Council and Industrial League an average of one hundred copies of the Eagle are distributed each week. People of the community are sending copies to friends in various parts of the United States and one copy has been sent to Africa. Keep up the good work and let the people know what South Los Angeles is doing. CITIZENS' COUNCIL AND INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE MEETING THIRD LEAGUE MEETING The Citizens' Council and industrial League, held its regular meeting at Grant Chapel Church, E. 108th St. and Compton Ave., Tuesday night, Aug. 7.

EASTSIDE REALTY CO. 4501 South Central Avenue HUmbolt 7054 HUmbolt 7054 - POLITICAL DIGEST --- ```markdown ``` The Bass-For-Assembly Club has put in a strenuous week in holding meetings at the headquarters, 1710 Central Avenue, also several neighborhood meetings. The candidate, Mr. J. B. Bass is constantly on the go, filling various speaking engagements and making contact with the voters of the district. Captain Wm. Glenn who takes a lively interest in public affairs, is a close observer and when he sees the many subterfuges which politics has brought forth he has no hesitancy in speaking his mind. His chief concern at all times is the injustice professional politicians and parasites are heaping upon the group. Declares them a nuisance and weight upon the progress of the race. C. H. Alston, candidate for the Assembly from the 73rd Assembly District says that he is now hitting on all six with meetings every night and he has all others on the run. Wood Wilson, far-famed as the guiding genius of the Eastside Independent Club is greasing up the machinery of this organization and says to watch the fur fly from this time forward. Immediately upon the conclusion of the August primaries an intensive will be put on by the Republican forces to get out the full vote for the November election thereby assuring an old time Republican majority. Sidney P. Dones campaign will culminate with a monster parade in which we are told more than 200 automobiles will be in line, with bands and banners whooping up things for Dones for the Assembly from the 73rd Assembly District. Judge Wm. T. Aggelier has made an enviable record in public life. In the office of Public Defender he was a shining light on behalf of the people. As judge of the Superior Court he has proved himself as one of the outstanding jurists on the bench. Although endorsed by the L. A. Bar Association he speaks right out and says that he is not in sympathy with the situation in that organization which excludes any lawyr on account of his race or creed. In addition to other endorsements candidate J. B. Bass has also received the endorsement of the Order of Railroad Conductors; Brotherhood of K. R. Trainmen; Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers; Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. The Federated Voters League has endorsed its ticket which will come forth during next week.

This is to advise you that during your period of greatest advancement in County work, he was not even a member of the County Board of Supervisors. It was prior to his administration, and while I was Supervisor for the Second District that the members of your race were admitted to the County Hospital as nurses, and to the position of Head Custodian for County Buildings; this is the only Department in the County that is supervised by one of your people. The efficiency shown by your girls in the County service has removed all opposition to them. The same is true of Mr. Robinson, serving as Head Custodian of County Buildings.

EASTSIDE REALTY CO. 4501 South Central Avenue HUmbolt 7054 HUmbolt 7054 (For The Associated Negro Press) Washington, D. C., Aug. 7.—Reversing its executive committee, the National Association of Colored Women, elected Mrs. Rebecca Stiles Taylor of Savannah as executive Secretary, Friday, and returned Mrs. Minnie Scott of Toledo, to the post of first recording Secretary. Mrs. Taylor who has served as secretary under Mrs. Bethune, is a powerful figure among the membership and ha dfoldly expected with the dedication of the new national headquarters here to be in charge. The place pays $150 per month and quarters. It is reported that the incoming administration felt its program could be better carried on without the dominating influence of Mrs. Taylor in so prominent a role. The executive committee named Mrs. Scott. The body when appealed to by Charlotte Hawkins Brown, president-elect, overruled the committee so that Mrs. Taylor will hold forth at 11th and O Sts., the location of the headquarter.

As a matter of fact the Assemblyman is not the author of the bill. His part was only to change $50 to $100, which made the minimum damage one hundred dollars instead of fifty dollars. i” i And now comes the old threadbare jzoning proposition hefore the city council in an attempt to dislodge the citizens on the East Side from their homes and to foster commercial blocks in their stead. This law, if passed by the city council, would also be a menace to the Y. M. C. A. and the beautiful’ Second Baptist Church as well. This situation shoald not preyail and we call upon the city council to refuse the passige of ithis per- nicious legislation. which is aimed directly toward a: certain group which would reduce in value and influence several of our most useful institutions. i ts The people will remember one of the issues in’ the last city election when a glue and rubber factory was built right next door to a church on the east side, and the furoy created at that time should be a reminder of the discontent which the pending legislation as to zoning will bring about should our city council act so unwise as to suffer the; passage pf this measure. t As the date of the primary approaches it becomes more apparent that a change is demanded by the voters of the 74th who will cast their votes to that end. The slogan of “Progress” exemplified by J. B. Bass has caught the admiration of|the peo- ple, and it is freely predicted that he will win by a magnificent majority, 1 | BEAUTIFUL WOMEN ' ' The Chicago professor who has gainedia little brief notor- iety by his declaration that 90 per cent of the women are home- ly, probably is one of those odious “‘efficieney experts.!: They reckon everything in percentages. Whatever he is, he jis woe- fully off his base in making such an assertion. { Ninety per cent, indeed! Not even in Chicago, we ¥enture to say, will so large a proportion of homely. women be found. And in Los Angeles not 90 per cent, nor nine per cent+—no, it cannot be conceded that even one per centiof our women are homely. : f There are different standards of judging feminine pulchri- tude. Turks and Eskimos are said most to admire women who are, let us say, plump, well-rounded, moon-faced. Othérs pre- fer the svelt type. Ideas concerning beauty, vary. it The Standard dictionary, defining “beautiful,” says: “The definition of ‘beauty,’ ‘perfection of form,’ is a good key to the meaning of ‘beautiful,’ if we understand ‘form’ in its: widest sense.” It is submitted that under the terms of this definition (if we understand ‘‘form” in its widest sense) all women are beautiful. The dictionary goes on to say, héwever, that, “there must be harmony and unity, and in human b¢ings spiritual love- liness, to constitute an object or a person really beautiful. No attempt will be made to answer for the women of Chi- cago as to whether they possess the additional requirement of spiritual loveliness. But it can be said in:behalf of the fair ones of Los Angeles, without fear of successful contradiction, that they have this, as well as unity and harmony. The end of America’s building boom do@s not appear to be in sight. When building was resumed at an accelerated rate with the end of the war, many thought that ag soon as the short- age caused by suspension of construction during the war was made up the bottom would drop out of the market. Nearly ten years have passed and still the construction igoes on. :i There is no housing shortage and theré are enough com- mercial buildings to meet present needs and yet these two classes of construction make up the bulk of present building. This is readily accounted for. Living standards are’ rising, bringing a general demand for finer houses:and more ‘modern store and office buildings. The nation is not satisfied with the old and unbeautiful. . : Los Angeles, in common with the nation, is maintaining a rapid pace in building construction this year, Its high rate of construction activity during the first seven months of the year indicates that the ~olume for the year will equal, if not: oe both the large gvar of 1927 and the record year | 926. ‘ -_ _ Throughout the svate there are being erected thousands of fine homes, many large store and office buildings,; great apartment buildings and numerous industrigl buildings, The | value of public works and public utility contracts is kecping pace with the record year of 1926. i Here is the most convincing proof of Los Angeles’ present prosperity and her promise. of future prosperity. There is no Pessimism in this state. { ‘Page--Six WORTH WHILE COMMENTS |, Gene Tunny and Mr, ‘Thoma |Heeny have settled their Uttle di | putas to which was the superio [mite man.” So with Mr. Tex Rich lord's release of the front page, M: Hoover and Mr. Smith will resum | inet controversy as to which ehall b in the national spotlight as the cham | pion of “We the peepul”—.

The stool of a baby should be no- ticed each day. If it becomes green- ish, hay a highly offensive odor, or contains quite a quantity of mucous it’s time to look after its diet.

In order todo. this, it was necessary to make a trip to Culver City and make inquiries of those who know him and of his attitude toward oun wecsie. i We first contacted Miss Snowden, premier and far famed — entertainer Who knows nitimately of everything in the amusement lines, Mr, Houck being one of the captains of the Met- ropolitan Goldwyn Company, would naturally come under her observation, When asked what she knew about Reve Houch, she exclaimed: “Why he is one of the finest men I have ey- er had the pleasure to meet, He has made it possible for colored entertain. ‘ers to ply their profession with the same protection of any other race. He is a prince, hers 100 per cent for the people, and has a constant care for all of them without reference to race, creed or color. Mr. Houck is just the sort of man our people should. appreciate and i do hope the colored voters will give to him their hearty support.” We went further, looked up and in- terviewed all of the men and women who hal come to knaw Mr. Hotick through working both in Culver City and in the movies and we find each one of them, speaking in the same vein as Carolynne Snowden. Therefore we find that instead of making the Mayor lose the big col- ored vote in the 3rd district from which he hails as a candidate for County Supervisor, the malicious cat has but caused them to look Mr. Houck up and find him a man upon, whom they can support with a firm * WHO IS MAYOR HOUCK CAROLYNNE SNOWDEN SPEAKS UP Friday, August 10, 1928 | conviction that all people will receive at his hands, a fair and square dea) and this is il that could by usked, Mme.

Friday, August 10, 1928 Inventor Has Succeeded Valuable MORRIS HARRIS, Inventor of the "Harris Safety First Check System", with his principal and main offices at 1475 West Jefferson Blvd., of this City of Los Angeles, California, has closed what really is known to be the largest and most valuable transaction and deal that has taken place in the United States of America, by which acquiring 221,000 acres (35 $1/2 miles long by 18 $3/4 miles wide) with all the wealth and immense richness of the sub-soil on the well known historical old Spanish grant—LA JOYA DE SEBILLETA GRANT—of Socorro County, State of New Mexico, United States of America. This large tract of land and holdings, actually representing and insight values and APPRAISED ASSETS of $100,000,000.00 without any exaggeration or misrepresentations whatsoever. The said Morris Harris, Inventor, well known head of the "Harris Safety First Check System," after many years of constant effort and hard work, has succeeded in closing and consummated the most valuable and largest transaction and deal with actual appraised-assets and values of One Hundred Million ($100,000,-000.00) Dollars, comprised of the well-known and historical old Spanish grant the LA JOYA DE SEBILLETA GRANT of Socorro County of the State of New Mexico, to which ratification of its Patent and Deed which was granted on the 4th day of June, A. D., 1819 was made and executed and given by the President of the United States of America, Theodore Roosevelt, on February the 8th, A. D. 1907, under the Court of Private Land Claims at the City of Washington, D. C. The property and holdings which Mr. Morris Harris has acquired under a ninety-nine (99) year Lease, consists of approximately 221,000 acres (351/2 miles long from Easterly to Westerly by 183/4 miles wide from Northerly to Southerly), lying and situated 67 miles South of Albuquerque 15 miles South of Belen and at 14 miles North of Sorocro, in the State of New Mexico, and, the well known Rio Grande River traversing and cutting the property and its large acreage for more than 19 miles in its width from Northerly, to Southerly with the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad running from El Paso, Texas to Denver following the said Rio Grande River and running through this property, also for 19 miles across it, and the trunk line of the same Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad that runs from Los Angeles, California to Kansas City and Chicago running along the Northern line of this property, and the Atlantic Pacific Automobile Highway or better known as the New York to Los Angeles Automobile Highway running for more than 20 miles right through the center in its width on this large property. The size and acreage of this property now under the ownership and sole management of Mr. Morris Harris is more than half as large as the State of Rhode Island. This property has been held in a grant that was made by Spain over one hundred years ago. This grant was respected and held binding by terms upon which peace was declared after the War of Independence between Spain and Mexico. It was also left in the possession of the original possessors in the agreement under which the United States purchased the State of New Mexico from Mexico, being ratified in the known Guadalupe Hidalgo Treaty of 1848 and by the Gadsden Treaty of 1879 and finally was ratified by the United States Court of Private Land Claims when a Patent and Deed was issued under President Theodore Roosevelt's administration in 1907. For the development of this piece of property and holdings is such a tremendous project, that it is exceptionally hard to try to explain in writing. However, we will endeavor to give the readers the principal facts. Will not endeavor to explain the technicalities of this large land grant, but in order to give, the readers an idea what it is all about—this entire piece of property was originally giv- If You Fail To Read----THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE----You May Never Know It Happened en by Spain to sixty-seven men, under the condition that they were to have these vast and immense holdings and land as their own and could live there and occupy the property without paying any taxes but to be ruled and managed under the control of a Board of Trustees composed of five members which was to be elected every two years by a majority vote of the owners and heirs, this Board of Trustees to have all powers required and necessary to lease, dispose and mortgage and to levy all residents and to do as best deemed for the benefit and interests of the owners or their heirs:—rulings of which, laws and how the governing of said grant by the said Board of Trustees or their successors are found and enacted in the "New Mexico Statutes Annotated Codification of 1915" from page 324 to 329 inclusive at said Annotated Codification of 1915 of New Mexico Statutes. As the five selected by majority vote, elected every two years Board of Trustees for the said LA JOYA DE SEBILLETA GRANT being vested with all faculties and nowers which ratified by the District Court of the State of New Mexico, wisely chose and appointed a real honorable and practical man of affairs with full power of Attorney as their agent, commissioner and consulting engineer, for him to transact conduct and to defend their business, all under a certain written instrument of a Contract of Authority, executed, signed, acknowledged and properly sealed which appears of record at the County Clerk and Ex-Officio Recorder's Office in Deed Book 95, Pages 400 to 404 inclusive, at Socorro, Socorro County, New Mexico, said contract authority executed, issued and acknowledged by each and every one of the said five members of the said duly elected and qualified Board of Trustees for the LA JOYA DE SEBILLETA GRANT, thence: Santiago G. Lucero,—Severo Rivera,—Pedro S. Contreras,—Solomon Griego and Toribio Garcia, on the 14th day of January, A. D. 1921 and acknowledged and ratified on November the 6th, A. D. 1926 by the Honorable District Judge Harry P. Owen:—the said practical man of affairs being no other one than the Geologist and Mining Engineer, Mr. Louis R. Goldbaum, who is well known by his large practical experience in the mining, as well as in the petroleum or oil industry from New York to the West Coast and from South America throughout all over Mexico. From this man Mr. Louis R. Goldbaum, Harris after personally having investigated the facts of the wealth of the said grant and immense acreage, as well as to the indefeasibility, force and legal authority of said Goldbaum's contract authority as stated of January 14th, A. D. 1921, as well as to the legality and authenticity of the Patent and Deed issued and granted by President Theodore Roosvelt for the said LA JOYA DE SEBILLETA GRANT, and furthermore, by the advise and acceptance of Attorney ARTHUR C. FISHER with offices at the Pacific National Bank Building of this City of Los Angeles, California, Mr. Morris Harris on the 30th day of July, A. D. 1928 obtained and acquired the said ninety-nine year lease, which appears of record at the County Clerk and Ex-Officio Recorder's Office in Deed Book 108, Pages 61 to 67 inclusive, at nine o'clock A. M., August 3, A. D. 1928, at Socorro, Socorro County, State of New Mexico. Morris Harris secured the said ninety-nine year lease from the said Mr. Louis R. Goldbaum on the sub-soil rights with all the necessary, required and needed privileges to use the surface rights as well as of the entire acreage of the said La Joya Grant.—First thing Mr. Harris did was to have his New Mexico Attorney, Mr. W. J. Eaton of Socorro, New Mexico, to examine and pass upon or reject all the legal records and everything pertaining to this grant from the time of its inception by Spain down to the present time, and said well known Attorney Eaton assured Mr. Morris Harris of his legal right to have, to hold, own and to operate the sub-soil have, to hold, own and to operate the sub-soil of this large property. The next thing Morris Har- Page-Seven RIS k System" Largest and Most place and a. ris did was to conscientiously under estimate the more valuable or major comodities which could be produced and marketed, find altogether several hundred valuable industrial and commercial products on this property, running all the way from different valuable clays, non-metallics, minerals, mineral-waters, etc. However, it will take a matter of years to fully determine and develop the full resources of this property, but, as a start Mr. Harris is interested in the following resources: 1. OIL AND GAS-Of which there are three parcels and well known structures. One known as the Noe Dome, consisting of approximately 11,000 acres, and another Dome and a well defined anticline which has not been named, consisting of approximately 16,000 acres, and another parcel and structure known as the Great Basin or Great Sinecline consisting approximately 50,000 acres. There have been reports made on these three well known parcels and oil and gas structures of this Grant by some of the most famous and outstanding geologists in the world, such as Dean E. Winchester, F. J. S. Sur, famous English Geologist, Dr. E. H. Wells, Mr. Carter, head Geologist of the Texas Gulf Oil and Refining Company, Mr. McFarland of the Gilmore Oil Company, by Mr. Louis R. Goldbaum with his thirty-six years of practical experience as a Mining Engineer and Petroleum Geologist, in fact, by about twenty of the foremost geologists in the world. They all agree in almost every detail in their reports and opinions. It is their belief that, owing to the structures of the La Joya Grant, the direction and course of the mountain ranges and the producing wells above the property, a vast area of oil territory, even from clear outside of the State of New Mexico drains down into the three structures mentioned above on the La Joya Grant. In other words their belief is that these three well known structures cover the main lakes or pools of oil from that entire vast district, and their reports and opinions further agree that on the three parcels and oil and gas structures mentioned, the drilling would be through structures which are easily adapted to drilling and that it is only necessary to go from 1200 to 1800 feet to reach the oil, which as you all know, means rapid, easy and quick production. The oil which has already been produced and which is known to drain into this property runs from 62 to 64 gravity, the highest grade and gravity oil known to the United States, even exceeding Pennsylvania. This structure and three parcels comprising 77,000 acres of oil and gas land at a very conservative figure is figured at $1,000.00 per acre or $77,000,000.00. We will mention here also that there are two railroads, one running parallel with the northern line of the Grant, and one running directly through the Grant and also the main Atlantic Pacific Highway runs directly through the Grant, therefore allowing readily to market all products without prohibitive cost. 2. COAL—There are two tremendous veins or stratums of high grade coal running through the property from Northerly to South-ly, approximately twenty-two miles. This coal is traced from the State of Colorado on through to the State of New Mexico. There are producing mines in New Mexico on the same stratums and veins of coal above and below this La Joya Grant. This is Anthracite Coal, which is the highest grade coal known, containing lots of oil and gas. It burns up clean, leaves no clinkers and very little ash. The coal beds have been tapped and the facts have been established beyond any question that there is an almost unlimited amount. An analysis by the Beverstock and Payne Laboratories shows this coal to contain 9,564 B. T. U's. or calories per pound. What is considered to be good coal ordinarily runs between six and seven thousand B. T. U's. per pound. The appraisal of this vast coal average and extension being estimated to represent at present $5,000,000.00. ```markdown ``` PERE Epo URE ed oe eT LO ere fe EON T nr Ce gee ae Ser tay Re rere ae San ee oe Pee Eo ree , a A | ‘ : { < Page-—Eight Mr. Morris Harris, as another one} of the Lig assets to his favor, already has established a branch office at Socorro, New Mexico, where his Attorneys and consulting engineer will be glad te advise any cne in aay matter relating to his huge and tremendous undertaking and pro- gram. e 3. LEAD AND SILVER—From all knowledge of well known Mining Engineers there appears to be an entire mountain of high grade lead and silver cres. It is impossible at present to estimate the value of this product, but it must be tremendous. An assay of the lead and silver ores runs 64.6-10% in lead per ton and has a value of $77.50 per ton, and remem- ber this is merely the outcroppings which can be picked up from the top and surface of the ground. * 4. COPPER—The copper outcrop- pings are so rich that you can take your pen knife and cut pure slices of red and native cop- per off the ores. Mining Engineers consider it to be the second largest copper prospect in the world. The copper ores assays 23.9-10% -cop- per per ton cr $66.90 per ton. 5. COMMERCIAL GYPSUM— There is a gyosum bed which outlines, about thirty feet wide and about a mile and ‘a half long. This gyosum bed runs from one to three hundred feet in thickness. It can be marketed at about $10.00 ver ton net, and there is a great demand for it. An analysis of a surface sam- ple taken from the very top of the ground and outcroppings shows it to be 96.3-10', pure, which is a very high grade gypsum. In this zypsum bed by conrervative figures there are 300,000 cubic yards, making a gross value of $3,000,000.00. 6 NITRATE—For which there is a great demand, as during the world war the tremendcus fields in Chile were almost exhaust- ed. It is used in high explosives, fertilizer, etc. It is the understanding that Nitrate usually runs around 812',, while the Nitrates on this La Joya Grant prcperty runs 1114‘;. There are approximately 20,000 acres. And we can say that this Nitrate proposition is one of the most tremendously profitable products on this prop- erty. A conservative appraisal places the value ef the nitrates at $20,000.00 per acre. How- ever, you will usually find good Nitrate yalued at $40,060.CO ner acre, but being conservative calling it $20,000.00 per acre—20,000 acres is werth $400,000,000.C0. 7. ANOTHER FORM OF GYP- SUM-—s found on thé propeity, having the appearance cf Izing-Glass. This Gypsum when baked 24 hours and crushed produces a fine re- fined white powder, for which there are many uses. It is an excellent face powder and makes wonderful tooth paste, by the use of which dis- eases of the gums, etc., are eliminated. The na- tives on the property pulverize this transparent gypsum and use the refined powder on cuts and skin infections, which it almost miraculously heals. The medical qualities in this form of gypsum have been proven beyond question, and as there is a vast amount on the property, it is practically impossible to estimate the value of it, 8 MINERAL WATER—You all have no doubt heard of the famous Socorro Mineral Water, of which the main supply springs cn this property. A stream of about five miner’s inches burst out of the side of the mountain, ficwing steadily the year around, cre- ating a beautiful waterfall. This water has a high mineral content and is very valuable. The mountain out of which this mineral water comes is composed of a very peculiar material. It con- tains gypsum. magnesia and various other in- gredients, but no one seems to have ever dis- covered the same combination’ of ingredients combined before. It is extremely light mater- ial, floats on water, will not burn and is strong as steel. When this material or clay which was disccvered by Mr. Louis R. Goldbaum seven years ago and which has been technically nam- ed by Goldbaunite-Clay, is ground up and soak- ed into a pulp and compressed solidly and dried, the same as wood fiber process, it gives a very light material with the strength of steel, which is a wonderful asset to airplane manu- facturing, cances, boats, etc. 9% MANGANESE—Over a tremen- dous area on the property, there are petrified sea shells of all kinds, and a large variety of fossils of both the flora and the fauna; at some of the petrified sea shells and fossils replace- ment with Manganese has taken place, and there appears to be enough Manganese on this Property to make enough steel to build a city. Now, these are what'is considered to be the major products not including at present the immense and vast extensions of the rich land and soil where any kind of farming and agricul- tural products can be raised and obtained from the soil and land of this property, and to which Mr. Morris Harris and his associates are going to turn their attention first—Let us state that through tha reliable information gathered by well known geologists; mining engineers pad ex: perts on there many different natural r and sit event Seis gs, and from the data at hand, the true and conservative ae tote oP- praisal abe and assets insight of is LA JOYA property, are of $100, 00 —and let it be understood that this appraisal is ‘ultra conservative, and based onl vacant prover: ty loan value which is only to be If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened about fifteen (15° ) per cent of the actual value of the property. é One of the most interesting items and views when Mr. Morris Harris closing and con- sumating. this vast and immense transaction and deal on the said 221,000 acres of the LA JOYA ‘GRANT of Socorro County State of New Mexi- co, was for him to take the ithdertaking of the immediate development, such as the immense beneficial undertaking of his visualization with his philanthrophism as usual, to immediately start in the acquiring outright of sufficient acre- age of nothing less than one (1,000) thous- and acres to be located and situated right in the center of such huge and tremendous tract of land as stated the said 221,000 acres which he has already acquired under the said Ninety: Nine year Lease, and so the location and situa- tion could not be duplicated nor better located, at point from which distances to such large cities and places as:< Los Angeles, California to the West; Denver, Colorado to the North; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and Kansas City to the North-East; St. Louis, Missouri and Chicar go, Ill, to the East; Dallas, Fort Worth and San Antonio, Texas, to the South-East and El Paso, Texas to the South, will all such cities and places be at the same distance of not over than 1,000 miles from this ideal and particular spot and place,—to immediately start and pro- ceed on the organizing, arranging and to take all immediate necessary steps for the creating and the establishing ‘and building up a modern and up-to-date real and happy center where everything that makes life worth living can be had and always obtained; and, Mr, Morris Harris having decided to,name it and build and erect such life-memorial, entitles it, as hereaf- ter will be known to the world as the: INTERNATIONAL. UN-DENOMI- NATIONAL HOME FOR ALL AGED MINISTERS At which will have a number of 100 Aged Ministers (regardless of their Denomination and race) to act as an Advisory Board and a number of nothing less than 10 out of the said 100 Ministers to make up a Board of Governors. At this wonderful HOME FOR ALL AGED MINISTERS, all the life members will have all the care, joy and happiness same as if they were living at their. own homes as they will be allowed and permitted:to have their dear fami- lies with them in every;respect, Mr. Morris Harris has already taken all necessary steps for his huge and stupendous program and for the retting aside of the said# one (1,000) thousand acres, with his .attor- peys as well as with the Board of Trustees and the attorney in fect Brpltcloor and agent of and for the said La JO¥A GRANT. Regarding to the climatic conditions and all agricultural products that can be raised and cultivated at these 1,000 acres which will be located at not over than four (4) miles distant from any and all of the OIL, GAS, COAL, COP- PER, SIVER and LEAD MINING, GYPSUM and NITRATES quagryings, operations and fields, we will at the present time enumerate only a few of such Gol-sent facts and veracities, blessed by nature, as follows: 1. The climatic conditions are such, that Nature alone cures and returns to life and heals all such diseases as. Pneumonia, Tuberculosis and Rheumatics, as the climatic weather is a dry winter as well as a dry summer and the rarified and pure oxygene which cannot be found nor compared at any other parts or places, and its wide, wide open God’s country, the inhabitants, is all they breathe, which means rejuvenation, life, happiness and health; in order to prove such statement and facts, there are at present more than 42 large Sanitariums established at Albuquerque at 65 miles Northerly from this very place LA JOYA GRANT, where thousands of Tuberculosis (T. B’s.) and Rheumatics go to escape death and pain and to regain their health and live again, and, as Albuquerque is a colder place in winter but not so much at this place where Mr. Mortis Harris will establish and build the said HOME FOR ALL AGED MINISTERS, there is as can be seen readily another vital and most important advantage to all and for all the life Members of the said HOME FOR ALL AGED MINISTERS which Mr. Morris Harris regardless of cost and hard work will build. s...At said institution and beautiful place, there will be all kinds of amusements, pas- times and diversions for all Members and their families, such as: Golf Hokey Tennis Courts; Baseball fields; a Park; Schools; Swimming Pools; a Library, etc., etc., and a Hospital with all modern conveniences—Dgctors and Nurses —all free of cost to all Members and their fam- ilies. 2. Agricultural and stock raising: To- bacco, Cotton, Sugar Beet, all kinds and class- ‘es and varieties of truck garden and vegetables, Wheat, Barley, Oat, ‘Alfalfa, Corn, Maiz, Beans, Chile Pepper and Peaches, Apricots, Plums, Pears, Grapes, Apples (the most delicious and rich in flavor as well as in aroma, apples are raised here), Walnut and Pecans, etc., and citrus plants or trees can be raised at this place. And dheep Paste, hogs, and stocks of e] And sheep, je, hogs, stocl any kin and poultry may and can also be raised at this Mr. Morris Harris and his organization will establish Branch Offices in every State of the Union in United states ot (rice, asa large and vast sum of money be spent to carry the above said Morris Hatris program and un- destettos.. Friday, August 10, 1928 Vee nn a A a an es gee cnc: NN tees eee eee and announcement will be interested in such a tremendous beneficial move, and, if any of the readers of this article will just write or com- municate with Mr. Morris Harris concerning to all what has been stated in order so your names may go in Mr. Harris and his organization records, we will thank you for it. knowing that every reader in writing will be for no other reason or purpose than that he or she fully has seen and are taken at heart with Mr. Morris Harris and his organization the said INTERNA- TIONAL UN-DENOMINATIONAL HOME FOR ALL AGED MINISTERS, REGARDLESS. Now then: All ministers will be given free accommodations at their vacation time. Re- gardlecs of any cost and hard work, this large and huge undertaking will go ahead and will be built and the said HOME FOR ALL AGED MINISTERS will be built and Ipcated in this LA JOYA GRANT, of Socorro County, State of New Mexico, and, Mr. Morris Harris and his organization expects to be supported by every State of the Union as well as by every foreign country regardless, and those taking an inter- est and becoming interested in this program may expect large amount of business from Mr. Harris and his organization. Get in touch with Mr. Morris Harris at 1475 West Jefferson Boulevard, Los Angeles, California, assuring you and all readers that nothing else but facts will be given at any time to all of you communisating. Mr. Merris Harris and associates, plans for the development of this large holdings and Property are to immediately take all required steps and organize under the Laws of the State of New Mexico, a TEN MILLION ($10,000,000.- 00) DOLLARS corporation with 200,000 Com- mon Shares of Stock of the Par'value each share of stock at $50.00. This will be the holding company and control the entire property, All development work will be done by already es- tablished companies, or by subsidiary com- panies formed either by Mr. Harris or by his organization and associates for that purpose. There are already a number cf the big and major oil companies contemplating to obtain and purchase leases on the well known oil and gas structures on this property. These leases will be given providing they can be given on a basis satisfactory to Mr. Morris Harris and as- sociates, and any property not taken care of in this way will be drilled by subsidiary com- panies which Mr. Harris and associates will form. 7 The development of all other commodi- ties and resources on this large holdings and property shall be handled in a like manner, and as you all can readily see there will be an im- mense and tremendous profit from all devel- cpment. In other words, THE BEST PLACE TO BE IN ANY DEAL IS ON THE INSIDE and Stockholders in the holding company WILL BE EXACTLY THAT. As Mr. Morris Harris and associates state and claim, they will not need a great amount of capital and that they are only going to raise THREE MILLION ($3,000,000.00) DOLLARS for their main expenses which will consist of their general offices and personnel, the estab- lishing of their headquarters on the ‘property, their different branch offices at the different places in the United States of America, for the protection of the large and vast tract of land, holdings and interests in the property and if necessary for to start the first drilling for the oil and gas in order to prove-up the property values on the three already described oil and xas structures and the possibilities and facts. On this property, Mr. Morris Harris and his as- scciates will build headquarters consisting of a large office for all the engineering work. As the Holding Company which Mr. Morris Harris and associates are taking steps right now to incorporate under the Laws of the State of New Mexico is only to be capitalized at TEN MILL- ION ($10,000,000.00) DOLLARS and the hold- ings and property just as it is at present it is worth ONE HUNDRED MILLION ($100,000,- 000.00) DOLLARS, Mr. Morris Harris .and as- sociates safely feel that every FIFTY ($50.00) DOLLARS share of stock is worth FIVE HUN- DRED ($500.00) DOLLARS at the very pres- ent time. However, a very limited amount of said stock will be sold at the Par, value of $50.00. NOTE: As there will be many important items and news to give to the public hereafter 80 to keep the public fully posted regarding the above said immense, huge and vast deal and transaction which Mr. Morris Harris has suc- ceeded in closing and completely consummat- ing, we notify the public to became interested in this newspaper and to look for it -as it will be for their own interests and benefit and of which no doubt many of the readers will take advantage of it and in due time will benefit by it.

RACE VOLUME 42 AMO Street Race and Field Day Made History "Nothing like it ever before in Los Angeles" was the verdict of all who witnessed or even heard of the wonderful Field Day staged at White Sox Park last Saturday, August 4th. It began with the three-mile race from 9th and Central, to White Sox Park at 38th and Ascot. The sight of 18 well-trained, vigorous young men stooping on the line in front of the California Eagle office, waiting for the crack of the starting gun in the hands of Toby Josephs, 15 year old hero of the Pyle cross-continent classic was a sight long to be remembered. At the sharp report of the firearm they all leaped forward like brown arrows and straight down the Avenue right behind the motorcycle officers who were clearing the way as they flew. Into the lead flew Amos Brown, a tall, slender boy running like a greyhound, and he kept this lead all the way without once being in danger from any of the other courors but Joe Williams who kept doggedly on right behind him. Arrived at the Baseball Park in through the gate and three times around they finished in this order: 1. Amos Brown Time: 16.50 2. Jos. Williams " 19.10 3. Terry Johnson " 23.00 4. Murphy Gurdry " 24.00 5. Terry Johnson " 24.40 6. Stafford Harrison " 25.00 7. Walter Walden " 25.20 Everyone in the race finished some in bunches and some singly the rest were Champion Tampico, Walter Tinnon, Fred Clark, Thomas Bayman, Clinton Ingraham, James Hunt, Edwin Johnson, Amos Bowen, Edgar Tate, Biff Greenway, Ashley Burch, Edwin Climes, Wayne Brown. SUCCESS DUE TO NEWTON POLICE The "Eastside Amateurs" and the Business and Profession Men of Central Avenue who sponsored their efforts, feel very grateful to Capt. Hager, the sergeant of Newton Station and the men who patrolled and improvised race course during the 15 minutes necessary to run through the streets. They were able assisssed by a company of Boy Scouts under the command of Jas, Burruss, commanding officer, in keeping the intersections clear of crossing motorists. The first prize of $50.00 tendered by the Oak Lake Country Club and the California Eagle was refused by young Brown who would not jeopardize his amateur-standing by accepting cash; but chose the silver loving cup instead. The cup was tendered by the Oak Lake Country Club. The Second Prize which went to Joe Williams was an order for groceries on Thorpe & Bushey Market at 4321 Central Ave. The third prize which went to Terry Johnson. With the close of the street race the track and field events began.

GODFREY CLAIMS TUNNEY'S TITLE New York, Aug. 7.—George Godfrey, the giant California Negro, and John- ny Risko, Cleveland baker boy who BIRTH ICE CREAM COI INDEPENDENT YOU and YOUR MONEY are not welcome? THE MODERN Negro is not presumptuous. Quietly goes about his business, paying for what he gets; loyal to his race and to his country. The modern white man judges the Negro, not according to the color of his skin, but according to his ability and manhood. Yet there are a few of the ante bellum species who from some strange mental quirk or a fear complex as to being equalled see no good in the Negro only when he is needed badly; then they are all grins (wolfish ones) and brotherly platitudes. UNFORTUNATELY for the boxing game and a fact that 35000 black voters are going to remember there are a few of the old order left who when they have all white bouts or mediocre matches are glad enough to clean the brown and black shocks that pour into their none too belting coffers. Negroes go where they are not wanted very often because through natural optimism they fall to realize that they are not. So, beginning with our next issue we are going to call out names and warn you so you can stay away from some certain local arenas and put your money to better uses and listen gentle reader if you fall to heed, you can wear a sign as the biggest fool out of captivity. Baby Joe Gans gets the breaks again; he beat a little Italian, Joe Trailon at Syracuse last week. In doing so he got over a boy who grew up around Kansas City into one of the speediest, hardest hitting lightweights in the game. What do you think now of our girl athletes? Are they not the finest, hardest working, cleanest living set of little Amazons of any generation? They showed their nettle in the recent track meet. Rayford's Red Sox Play Eastside Girls Return Match at White Sox Park, Aug.18 BASEBALL FANS WILD OVER GIRLS' TEAM'S PLAYING Not satisfied with ending the game at White Sox Park, Aug. 4th in the 8th inning, players and fans have been clamoring for another match game between these bitter rivals—Rayford's Red Sox, and the Eastsiders. So to settle it they play again Saturday afternoon, July 18th at 2:30. The game on Field Day was a revelation to the majority of the spectators. They found that girls could really play ball and it is a sure shot that a large crowd will be out.

Important To colored Producers MAJESTIC THEATRICAL CIRCUIT AND T. O. B. A. GET TOGETHER An agreement of far reaching importance to the colored managers, producers and performers which will place the colored theatrical business on a firmer and more business-like foundation and which will assure the managers new attractions each season with entire new equipment give guaranteed employment to 500 colored performers, and assure the theatres and performers of solid booking for at least forty (40) weeks of the year, was finally closed last Saturday between Charles H. Turpin of St. Louis, the President and Martin Klein of Chicago, the Secretary, representing the T. O. B. A. and Jack Goldberg the President and Joseph J. Myers, the Vice-President and Secretary of the Majestic Theatrical Circuit. Conferences were had between the officers of the two Circuits in St. Louis, Chicago, Detroit and Pittsburgh, which resulted in both organizations obtaining authority from their respective Board of Directors, authorizing the execution of agreements which were signed on Saturday, July 28th, in New York, between Mr. Klein and Mr. Goldberg on behalf of the respective organizations. active organizations. Under the agreement the Majestic Circuit are to have ready for presentation twenty-five (25) attractions to open on Labor Day in twenty-five (25) cities, routed by the Majestic Circuit and booked with the T. O. B. A., shall book no attractions other than those of the Majestic Circuit during that period, with the exception of several special attractions which the parties are to agree upon. In this way a solid booking of the twenty-five (25) weeks is assured for the Majestic Circuit, guaranteed by the T. O. B. A., which organization in turn will make its booking arrangements direct with the theatres; there will either be a repeat of some of the companies with entire new equipment, book, for fifteen (15) weeks, or additional attractions will be added. The arrangement with respect to the booking is upon a basis of fifty (50%) per cent of the gross with a guarantee of One Thousand ($1000.00) Dollars; which guarantees the performer his salary, each show to consist of twenty (20) people and the equipment and railloading and other expenses to be taken out of fifty (50%) per cent leaving the One Thousand ($1000.00) Dollars to cover the company free of all other expenses. Arrangements have been made with the leading circuits controlling the white theatres to play our attractions not only in towns where there are no colored theatres, but in the larger Key cities, in this way all shows are practically guaranteed a season of 40 weeks. Calls for rehearsals have been made for August, 2nd. Mr. Maurice Cain long identified with burlesque productions and Mr. Sam Grisman are now part of the Majestic staff. The agreement between the Majestic and the T. O. B. A. is a tentative arrangement for this season and it is confidentially expected that the two organizations will amalgamate and become one, having its principal office in New York City, and its Western office in Chicago. There is also an understanding that the houses playing colored attractions will close their theatres for at least eight (8) weeks during the Summer instead of keeping the house opened continuously, in order to give the producers a chance to rehearse, secure new material and put out new attractions, the fault in the past having been, that most of the theatres played the same attractions six, seven and eight times during the year and often found themselves with out attractions, being compelled to put together any kind of a show to Peerless CABS MU tual 4141 LINCOLN THEATRE CENTRAL AVE. at 23rd St HUmbolt 7804 LAST 2 WEEKS START FRIDAY, AUGUST 10TH ON THE STAGE—MILLER & SLAYTER Present NEW YORK'S FASTEST MUSICAL REVUE "Dixie TO Broadway" MOSBY'S BLUE BLOWERS TUESDAY GIFT NITE Handsome Presents Free WEDNESDAY TRYOUT NITE Plenty of Fun, and How!

Each theatre manager knows now his attractions for twenty-five (26) weeks to come, he will be supplied with librographs, lobby frames and advertising matter to the end that this business, will be placed on a safe and firm footing and will be an inducement to the investment of colored capital in many cities of up-to-date theatres, to take the place of the so-called theatres which are now in operation. The Majestic Circuit, deserves the thanks of the colored race for bringing about a situation which means the giving to them of attractions up to the standard of the white attraction with the probability of better and more up-to-date theatres in which to house them.
