THEIF STEALS EAGLE CAR
AUTO THIEVES CAUGHT IN ACT
TWO MEN STEAL CALIFORNIA EAGLE'S CAR
The two meanest men have been found and are now languishing in durance vile For proving themselves so mean and base enough to steal and carry away one perfectly good 1926 model Ford automobile, the property of those so humble as the Editor and Managing Editor of the California Eagle.
The self-same theft occurred on Wednesday about midnight. The editor was on duty at the California Eagle office leaving the Ford Sedan standing in front. When he decided to quit for the evening and looked for his car, the same had disappeared.
He immediately proceeded to report his loss to Newton Street Station and on appearing there, the officers were making out their report of the recovery of the car and the arrest of the thieves.
POLICE EFFICIENCY
We then said that we would then and there take off our hats to Chief Davis and his entire organization. We never did take much stock in the constant knocks against our doughty chief and especially the charges of in efficiency. Now we know of our own personal experience that super efficiency prevails in the Los Angeles Police Department and we must say that such is worthy of the consideration of the people at all times.
Officers E. Rose and J. McGinty on the evening mentioned, were working on the Emergency Squad under Capt. Cahil and Lieut. Justin and were detailed to patrol Central avenue, 6th to 12th streets to watch for crowdyism on Halloween night. At 12:45 A.M. these officers discovered two men tampering with an auto in front of 847 Central avenue. They watched them for about five minutes and saw them drive away with said auto. The officers overtook them in less than one block and taking the into Newton St. Station, boked them for grand theft by 1 A.M.
The case will be prosecuted of course. The thieves proved to be two white men, one 35 years of age and the other 21 years. Officers Coppage and Ellis will handle the case for the prosecution.
This writer wants to command Chief Davis and his able Police organization for duty performed and especially the officers mentioned; also the officers of Newton Street Station for courtesies extended. This scores another one for our Los Angeles police—the finest in the land.
The Terrible Plight Of Florida Negroes
No houses, living in tents, with the winds raging through the ragged and flimsy cloth. Only a little food, and poor food at that, with cholera, and smallpox and influenza stalking through the land. Insufficient clothing, almost no clothing, and the dread South Coast Winters almost upon them. A shortage of fuel, and the bitter cold freezing the very marrow in their bones. Such is the actual, almost inconceivable, condition of Negroes in certain parts of the storm-striken area of Florida.
What are they going to do about it? They, who? The Negroes in Florida are beseeching help from every source; and the Negro citizens of Los Angeles are going to see that they obtain real help from Los Angeles.
Rising from the ashes of the unsuccessful meeting held Monday, October 29, a meeting that reflected the lethargy of the masses of the people of our city, the United Citizens Florida Relief Committee comes forward. It composed of Atty. Chas. H. Alston, chairman; Rev. T. L. Griffith; Rev. I. Albert Moore; Mrs. Ferrera; Mrs. Lula Slaughter; Mrs. Patton and Atty. Leon Whitaker. This committee is determined to show the South and the East that the people of Los Angeles will not turn a deaf ear to the cry of suffering. The monster Mass Meeting that the United Citizens Florida Relief Committee is going to hold on Monday Evening, November 12, is endorsed by the Interdenominational Ministerial Alliance, the Baptist Ministerial Union, the Los Angeles For-

EDWARD T. HUBBARD
Edward T. Hubbard, who is making the race for the Assembly from the 73rd District, has been endorsed by the Municipal League and is receiving the support of the most dependable element of the District, regardless of race or party.
Mr. Hubbard is one of the best qualified race men who ever sought the position of Assemblyman. His training has been varied and his experience great.

Mr. Hubbard was also associated in the 3rd classroom with some of the noted race men and scholars of high achievement having stood at the head of his class when graduating from the elementary school with such men as Attorney W. L. Martin, who was twice elected South Town clerk of Chicago aside from serving a term in the Assembly of Illinois. The great colored actor of London England, Arthur Anderson was also a member of this class along with Prof. Tilford Davis, who taught mathematics in the High School of Kansas City, Kansas, and John E. Moorehead, one of the most efficient mail clerks of Kansas for more than a quarter of a century.
As a civil and religious work, Mr. Hubbard has been consistently employed and is an ardent advocate of interracial progress.

Rosenfeld Joins Teachers Association Leading Colored Citizens Baptists Close Great Endorse Judge Doran Meeting at San Jose
ers Association
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Institute, West Virginia, Oct. 29.
As a means of promoting the drive of the National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools for $8,000 members John W. Davis, president, has called upon 500 educators throughout the country each to be responsible for four new members, indications are that response to this request will be general, many new members having already been introduced by this means. Among members recently added to the Association are Julius Rosenwald and his son-in-law, Alfred K. Stern, who have taken out sustaining memberships of $100 each; another son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar B. Stern, who have taken out life memberships of $30.
Through a special committee composed of T. G. Nutter, President Davis and W. W. Sanders, State Supervisor of Negro Education, the citizens of Charleston recently contributed a special fund of $1,400 towards operating expenses of the Association.
RETURNS FROM EUROPEAN TRIP
Mrs. Tracey Greer, pioneer citizen and noted club worker of this city has returned from a three-months' European trip.
In talking to a California Eagle reporter, Mrs. Greer said that she had been greatly benefited by her experience and contact in France, England, and Belgium.
"In England, I visited Mr. and Mrs. Harold Browning and Mr. John C. Payne and found them very delightfully situated. They saw to it that I visited the historically interesting places of England.
"Returning on the Montreal I also had the pleasure of seeping Canada, Niagara Falls and many of the larger Eastern Cities in my own country—and now even though J enjoyed the trip to the fullest extent it neverless seems good to be back in dear old California."

PRAISE SHULER FOR GREAT WORK
PRAISE SHULER FOR GREAT WORK
October 29, 1928.
REV. ROBERT SHULER.
801 S. Hope Street,
Los Angeles, California.
Dear Sir:
Enclosed you will find an excerpt from an address made by William Jennings Bryan in which he condemns religious bigotry and which I commend to your attention as a striking contrast between the mind of a great man and the mouthings of gnat-brained bigots who are trying to fan the flames of religious intolerance in this country.
I am not a Catholic. I am not a Protestant, though my parents were and many of my relatives are. I am a firm believer in the Christ who died for all of us, and in my humble way try to follow His teachings. This seeming paradox may be beyond your grasp, but suffice it to say that with me, at least, a religion is not a cloak but a reality. I do not live by my religion, but for it. This fact, also, you may be unable to grasp.
Le me say in all sincerity that, wittingly or witlessly, I believe you are doing a great work for Al Smith. If Mr. Smith carries Southern California, as I believe and hope he will, in my opinion it will be due largely to your preaching. I still have faith in the fair-mindedness of the American people.
The Laborer is worthy of his hire. And so, in proof of my sincerity, I am endosing a small donation to aid you in your work. If you place what I consider the toe-high value of a cent word on your preachings, this should pay for a few words against Al Smith's candidacy. And, I trust, that if you say a few words against Smith you will stress his religion and the fact that he is a friend of the boot-legged. Do not mention the fact that Smith never met the Pope, but that Hoover and the Pope were close personal friends when the present Pontiff was Papal Nuncio at Warsaw. A slight dose of poison, you know, generally is fatal, but an overdose causes nausea and a reaction which saves the poisoned person.
Trusting that you will continue your good work of enlightening thinking Protestants to the dangers of religious bigotry.

REV. J. D. WILSON ELECTED MODERATOR AND REV. T. M. DAVIS GENERAL MISSIONARY
The General Baptist Association and Auxiliaries, held a very interesting and inspiring six-days' session at San Jose, Calif., Oct. 9-14. R. v. W. A Magett the entertaining pastor spared no pain in caring for the hosts of Baptists that come from all parts of Northern California. Dr. J. P. Hubbard, of Oakland, Moderator of the Association discussed very constructively the convention theme: "Christianity, the abundant life," in a masterly fashion he explained life, and then the abundant life, which comes through Jesus Christ. Rev. T. M. Davis, General Missionary, made a comprehensive report of the field, and his many experiences during the year, the report was interesting from many angles and showed that all of the churches were making progress, and that the Kingdom of God was to be exalted.
So pleased were the delegates with his report that he was re-elected without contest. During the meeting many outstanding addresses were delivered: Dr. C. W. Brinstad, the "John the Baptist," of Northern California, the unfailing friend of the Negro, electrified the convention with his address on "Denominational program." Dr. James Asa White of the Thousand Battist Church, (white) Berkeley, spoke on "Race Relationship," has was a frank and outward expression of the conditions between the two races, his remarks were fraught with much truth. He never dodges the issue, and we wish that we had more white men of the type of Brinstad and White. The annual sermon was preached by Rev. R. H. Thomas of Oakland, his message was filled with spirit and fire well prepared and earnestly delivered the messengers will long remember this sermon.
The young people were given a larger place on the program this year than ever before—the Sunday School and B. Y. P. U, set a standard of excellence in point of attendance and interest, that will ever be remembered. They filled their numbers with much honor. Miss Irene Robinson, student of the Berkeley Divinity School, discussed the subject, "Will Christianity be safe in the hands of the Men and Women of Tomorrow?" Well did she defend the young folk of today, saying that they were more frank, honest and trustworthy than the young folk of the past generation; that there was no need for fear, given a fair chance, she believed that they would make good, and that there would be a greater church than ever before.
Miss Ada Jackson, the only Colored School teacher in Northern California addressed the delegates on the subject, "What Is the Religious Attitude of the Young People in Our Colleges and Universities?" She was very interesting, showing that she had given the subject much thought and investigation. Miss Galena Wiley read a fine paper in the Sunday School department on the subject of "Clearing Stones Out of the Way of Little Feet." This paper was filled with good, wholesome thought, not only for the Sunday School teacher, but the parent as well. She advised against telling the children Ghost Stories, and to move the stones of selfishness, prejudice and lying. Throughout the meeting Mrs. F. L. Law of Stockton, and Rev. Brown of Berkeley, kept the hearts of the hearers glad with music and much live singing, the spiritual numbers seem to be the most popular. Dr. Brown is a Gospel Singer of National note, and knows when and how to sing. Mrs. Law presides wonderfully at the Piano and plays from her heart. From every angle it was the greatest meeting in the history of Negro Baptists in this part of the State.
Rev. J. D. Wilson of San Francisco was elected Moderator. The next meeting will be at Fresno, Calif., and the Rev. J. E. Allen of Sacramento will preach the annual sermon.
Miss Calmy Possey, sister of Mrs. Joseph Edwards of 28th Street, returned home Tuesday from a three
EMMA LUE SAYERS CROSSES GREAT DIVIDE
Miss Emma Lue Sayers, who d part ed this life Saturday, October 27th, at 2 A. M., spent her early girlhood and
Emma Lue Sayers
received the major part of her education in Los Angeles. Her parents having di d while she was yet a very young girl, she made her home with her sister and brothe-in-law, Mr. and Mrs W. H. Terry, in East 17th St. Emma Lue's was a life of service. In her brief span of 30 years, her contributions to church, society and civic activities of this community far exceed many who have had more time and greater scope. Miss Sayers was a charter member of the A-B-O-U-T Club of the First A. M. E. Church, a club that was the life of the administration of Rev. J. W. Craw during his pastorate there. She organized the Business Girls' Club and a writer's organization known as "The Ink Slinger's Club", a charter member of the Y. W. C. A. and an ardent worker in this organization, a member of the Phys-Art-Lit-Mor Club and secretary of the local N. A. A. C. P., all of which organizations were present and offered befitting testimonials in form of resolutions on the occasion of the funeral.
OBSEQUIES
Monday afternoon as early at 12:30 persons wanting to pay final tribute to the memory of Emma Lue Sayers, filled the auditorium of First A. M. E. Church, at St. and Towne Ave., where the last solemn rites were held for this splendid young woman in the flower of her life.
There was a funeral procession, an opening hymn, invocation by the pastor, Rev. William David Miller, and the congregation in subdued tones sang "Lead Kindly Light". Rev. E. E Lightner read the scripture lesson, Mr. Edwards sang a solo, Rev. McCorkle read the obituary. Resolutions were then read: Phys-Art-Lit-Mor, Mrs. Malcolm Patton; N. A. A. C. P. Prof. J. C. Banks; and Business Girls Club; Y. W. C. A., Mrs. Roberta Thurman-Payne, after which Miss Ena Heard rendered a beautiful solo. And, then using as his text: "Teach us to number our days". Rev. McCorkle's closing eulogy was touching in sigh significance and yet comforting to those who grieved because of the premature passing of their loved one.
The floral offerings reminded the onlooker of the passing of Florence Mills, for like Florence, Emma Lue was buried beneath a garden or roses most beautifully assembled by the Angelus Home directors, in charge.
Wm. Nickerson, president of the Golden State Insurance Co., returned home from northern California, where he spent several days on business.
Mr. W. O. Houston and Edgar Johnson were among the bbuch that took in the big game at Berkeley the other week. They returned home wearing a poker face.
I CERTAINLY AGREE with the statement made by one of our local weeklies in saying that it was not the duty of the newspaper to try cases but rather to state facts and mold sentiment for the moral uplift and spiritual development of the community. So often, however, people with grievances, one towards the other, come to us with the same and contend that their side of the argument is news that would both interest and enlighten our readers, and when we refuse to see it in the light of their candle, they become our avowed enemy; while on the other hand if we are caught unaware and yield to their wishes, the parties assailed by them are eternally our foes in business, church and society, wherever we perchance meet them. So it matter not how straight our path, nevertheless it is frown with punishment.
THE MARKET is constantly flooded with new brands of footstuffs. At this time I rise to offer to the public a new brand of politician and his title is "The Smith-For-President Republican."
We contend that Alfred E. Smith is the man the country needs at its head at this crucial time, and in beating out our contention we are publishing herewith the arguments in favor of his election from the pens of Mr. Louis Michel and Mr. Chas, C. Flint:
"1. Every Negro man or woman who is over wealthy, earn too much money, is satisfied with thing as they are and think that America treats them right, let them be Hooverized, Mellonized, Coolidgeized.
"2. But every enlightened Negro, who hates the Ku Klux Klan and our present system of persecution, ostracism, intolerance and quick as well as slow murder of the martyred Negro body and soul, must vote for Alfred Emmanuel Smith.
"3. Liars and hypocrites cannot solve this question, only your right and proper vote will solve it.
"4. Therefore, let us vote for Alfred Emmanuel Smith, humanitarian, and the Negro's friend."—Louis Mich-
... ... ...
What has the Democratic party ever done for the Negro is the question asked by Republican leaders. Well, about the best answer we have to offer is this document by Mr. Flint: "Who gave the Negro the right of suffrage in New York State? The Democratic Party. Who presided over the convention which gave this privilege to Negroes? Martin Van Buren. Who afterward elected Martin Van Buren president of the United States? The Democratic party.
(Continued on Page Ten)
I did not intend to make any comment one way or the other on politics and I want it understood that I am neither for nor against either party, but I don't think that a man should mislead any group of people when he himself knows better, but continues to do it for his personal gain.
Such is the case of Bishop C. H. Philips, National Republican Committeeman when he made a statement a few weeks ago concerning how much few weeks are concerning how much we owe the Republican party. I want to state that there is a vast difference in the Republican party of yester-year and the Republican party of late years, namely: according to Bishop Philips the Republican party was launched by a group of well meaning citizens, who in their worshipfulness the constitution of the United States, and also recognizing the adversity of our race conceded to advance the theory that they were organized to liberate US. They were known according to him (Bishop Philips) as the Black Republican party.
Now it has become a well known fact and was even expressed by none other than President Lincoln himself, that in order to hold the Union together, that was falling rapidly apart, and going to pieces that something must be done to remove the cause of ill feeling and misunderstanding that existed between the north and the south, and which in the end, would end, in the utter destruction of good government. And that his only alternative as he could see was to free US. he hitherto had no power to do that, that if there had been any other way to bring tranquility to the nation during such a crisis that he would have done it, but that the Union must stick together EVEN IF EVERY SLAVE HAD TO BE FREED and that slavery completely abolished.
Now if Bishop Phillips or any one else, can in the face of that show why we should pledge our loyalty to the Republican party, when it's as plain as the nose on one's face, that our freedom is the result of a heated debate and that we were merely a DECOY in relation to the real or HIDEN cause of the Republican party's struggle for supremacy, and that we were freed for the sole benefit of the white man, and in order that the U. S. should continue in prosperity, and not as Bishop Phillips tries to show us) through PITY for the plight of OUR PEOPLE.
Notwithstanding the fact that we do appreciate all that the Republican party has done for us I don't see and can't understand why Bishop Philips should advocate that WE have MORT-GAGED our vote to the Republican Party. Mortgage means to pledge or to give over to someone else security that the promise made by you will be fulfilled. Now, I want to ask you. Do you think that we mortgaged our vote for our freedom?—as Mr. Phillips tries to show; when at the time we were emancipated we did not have the RIGHT to vote. How then, could we mortgage, or put up as security something which we did not own? For example, can you mortgage your home if you have no home to begin with?
Yours,
THOMAS ROWLETT,

Doran for re-election to the Superior Court, Mr. Millikan, in a letter addressed to Judge Doran, announced his support of the jurist and said:
"Having appeared before you in various matters and having thus become personally impressed with your fair-minded and impartial administration of the law, it is a pleasure for me to urge all of my friends and clients to support your candidacy for re-election. your experience on the bench, your fairness to litigants and your courtesy to lawyers, your leadership of the law and your judicial temperament make you in my opinion so well qualified for this position as to leave no doubt in the mind of any right thinking person that you should be re-elected.

If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA . EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened
(By The Associated Negro Press)
COLUMBUS, OHIO, Oct. 2—Prediction that colored voters of the North will express resentment against the Republican party's new Lily-Wild policy at the polls in November, is made, by Dr. Joseph L. Johnson, former Minister at Liberia.
"What does the Republican party think the colored people in the North are going to say when they learn that the Republican party in its campaign for the Presidency has deliberately entered into the scheme to cast the colored voter overboard in the Southland? I will miss my guess if hundreds or thousands of them do not resent this by casting their vote for the Democratic party headed by Gov. Alfred E. Smith.
"The elimination of the Negro all goes to show that the Republican party managers of the National Committee are perfectly willing to throw overboard the colored voters in the South, forgetting that if the colored vote was removed from the Republican Party, the colored voters in Delaware, Maryland, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Oklahoma and ever so many states in the North, they would have absolutely no show whatever.
"The Democratic party in the South woes nothing to the colored vote because they have never given their votes to the Democratic party, but the Republican party, who has always refused to give up their gratitude by allying itself with the movement to exclude the colored people from any participation in the councils of the Republican party."
Bean Meeting Lauded
One of the most successful of the series of meetings for the re-election of J. H. "Jack" Bean, candidate for Supervisor of the second district was witnessed by the enthusiastic audience of nine hundred or more last Thursday evening at the Saints Home Church on East 20th street.
Of the many speakers of the evening proclaiming their constant support for Mr. Bean, the address of Cole Sallings, former opponent of Mr. Bean in the Primary Election, who has now concentrated his efforts in behalf of our candidate, was a fierce propleus that Mr. Bean is the mash for this office. Atty. Jennings continues to direct his forceful influence making it clear as to why we as a group must re-elect Supervisor Bean.
The Choir's beautiful renditions of well selected songs filled all present with sweetness of purpose. We are indebted beyond words to Rev. E Driver for his generous hospitality and to those who by their services and pronounced interest, made this meeting for this worthy candidate, J. H Bean, and his co-workers one of long remembrance. C. Hubert is taking every opportunity to bring before the public the main reasons why Mr. Bean should be re-elected. We are with her in all force.
SAYS REPUBLICANS SOUGHT TO PURCHASE HIM
(By The Associated Negro Press)
Cleveland, Ohio, Oct. 30. The Rev. C. C. Aler, pastor of the Zion Hill Baptist Church, Cleveland, caused a sensation here a few. evenings og when he told an audience of 3,000 groves at the Tried Stone Church that he had been offered $5,000 by an organization t ostay on the stump in the present campaign. The Rev. Mr. Aler said he had been approached the day before the meeting by a colored representative of the G. O. P. organization, who confided that he had been authorized to offer any amount from $500 to $5,000 if the minister would not appear at the big rally.
According to the Rev. Mr. Aler, he was informed as to the identity of those who sanctioned the offer. The speaker told the large audience that he was being trying to bribe him for the most of two years because of his influence with colored people in Cleveland. He urged them to vote for Alfred E. Smith for President. The New York Governor's name was cheered to the echo.

Thirty-five Baptist ministers and others listened to an eloquent plan of the Honorable Fred M. Roberts last Monday at the St. Paul Baptist Church, Dr. W. F. Bottas, Pastor. Mr. Roberts said that good morals is involved in the present campaign issues, and that therefore no minister should be embarrassed to get into the thick of this political battle. He contrasted Herbert Hershey and Smith, both the thinkers for which they stand, proving himself master in political argument. At the conclusion of his address Dr. Wm. A. Venerable, secretary of the Welfare Commission of the Baptist Ministers' Union, moved the endorsement of the candidacy of Hoover and Curtis; the motion was temporarily held up until the Welfare Committee could make such a recommendation. Said committee having reported in five minutes, the motion went through without opposition.

There was quite a sport in the way of campaign work from all hands during the past as well as the present weak. Wood Wilson was busy indeed with the Hoover and Curtis meeting. A galaxy of spell binders went forth consisting of Jesse Graves, G. W. Snell, A. J. Fitzpatrick, C. H. Alston and others on partisan politics.

The Shaw for Supervigor forces headed by the indomitable Johnnie Johnson have made a strenuous campaign in behalf of Mr. Warb and say that the battle is all over except the shouting.
With their various cases stated there is no question but whatever the verdict rendered at the polls on next Tuesday everybody will be satisfied if not content.
WARNING
California Federated Voter's League warns against Propositions and Amendments designed to rob and destroy the power and weapons of defense now possessed by the people. Such measures are dangerous, un-American and if carried, will permit of a few men without regard for your rights to put over any program they see fit; such as the election of Councilmen at large.
We therefore advise to vote NO on the following propositions and measures.
Number 1—NO
Number 5—NO
Number 10—No
Number 7.A—NO
Number 19.A—NO
Number 20.A—NO
It would further advise to vote
YES on the following:
It is highly important that you give
these propositions consideration less
much as they are vital to the best interest
of the people as a whole and in many
instances to you as a group.
We have a letter from Jack Thompson
son calling upon his friends to vote
NO on Amendment No. 5.
VOTE NO ON AMENDMENT NO. 4
We have been reliably in formed
that Amendment No. 4 is nothing
more or less than a gigantic Real
Estate grab and should be defeated.
Therefore we urge a NO vote on this
Amendment.

own property, educate themselves and become citizens Who was he? Ted Kennedy, Davis, a lifelong Southern Democrat. Then tee it must not be forgotten that the White and Republicans who fought in the Union army greatly outnumbered by the Democrats who fought on the same side that the leaders of the Republican party found it necessary after nominating Lincoln for the second term for president to send their best and most persuasive orators in the army camps to convert enough Democrats to the Republican party to insure his second election.
"Who gave the Negro citizens of Los Angeles city their first representation in the public service of Los Angeles? M. P. Shyder. Who is M. P. Snyder? A very excellent Democrat. Who was the most just District Attorney to the colony over the past 20 years? Add? Thomas Lee Woolwine. Who was Thomas Lee Woolwine? A fair and square Democrat.
"Who gave our race their first and greatest representation in all our largest cities of the north, such as New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, Cincinnati, St. Louis, Kansas City, San Francisco, Los Angeles and many of the larger cities of the most progressive southern states? The Democrats. Who is the greatest living exponent of the rights of the common-people without regard to race or color? GOVERNOR ALFRED E. SMITH, the democratic candidate for President of the United States in this campaign.
"It is of vital interest to the American people, especially the Negroes who the next man is to occupy the White House in Washington, D. C. There never was a time in all our history when there were so many unsolved questions, and vexing problems of vital interest to the American people that new prompt and proper adjustment. The Republican party and the Coolidge Administration have not been able to solve them. We need a change in the administration of governmental affairs. We need it bad. Governor Alfred E. Smith, the man of the hour, has had many years of training in the public service. He is without a successful rival, the most outstanding and constructive statesman in our country today—he is fearless and capable, has matched his genius against the greatest and best statesman of Europe and the world. He is the only statesman in America who meets the popular-approval of the American people regardless of race or color, and he will bring about a successful and happy consummation of public affairs to the honor and glory of all the American people."—Chas. C. Flint.
REV. E. T. HUBBARD is the 73rd Assembly District candidate, and as far as I can see, should receive our unqualified support. To my mind, as we as a group are concerned, he has no opposition. So at this time we appeal to both judge and jury for the support of Mr. Hubbard.
Some of the voters have been anxious to vote for Smith, but are under the false impression that having registered as a Republican, they cannot vote for the democratic candidate, Goven Smith.
There is nothing in this thought for party registration cuts no figure in the general election. You can vote in any candidate you please.
Veterans, Attention!
BOULDER DAM—
Means the development of California and the great southwest on an unprecedented scale;
Opening of thousands of acres of government land with preferential entry rights to Veterans.
HERBERT HOGVER, Westerner and California has worked for Bouder Dam since it was first proposed:
PHIL D. SWING, congressman, ex service man, co-author of the Swing Johnson Bill sava:
"In 1923 SECRETARY HOOVER in his statement before the House Committee not only endorsed the project as set forth in the bill, but met and answered every criticism and object which had been set up at that ject." He further declares: "HER BEET HOOVER GAVE INVALUABLE SUPPORT to my bill and at SENAT OF JOHNSONS request appeared before the Senate Committee in 1925 in SUPPORT OF BOULED DAM."
HERBERT HOOVER STATES:
"Our country owes an everlasting debt of gratitude to the Veterans of the World War. It was my privilege to see at first hand their sacrifices, idealism and unselfish service. Their heroism not only made possible the winning of the war but will furnish inspiration for young Americans for years to come. I have observed with genuine sympathy the solution by the Republican Administration of the disabled soldiers and pendents. It is my belief that the constructive and intelligent service now being rendered by the Veterans Bureau be continued and enlarged and that GENEROUS INTERPETRATION be made of the many laws enacted for the relief of the veterans."
No man could write the above words unless he knew first hand the conditions effecting ex-service men and HOOVER DOES KNOW THEM. He has been in the trenches, slept in the hospitals, tramped through the mud of northern France, has had, a close and intimate knowledge of the conditions of the great kindy, sympathetic man, destination with your ballots comrade and with your help to become a great PRESIDENT OF THE UNTED STATES.
APPEAL TO McADOO TO GET IN LINE
HON. W. G. McADOO
649 S. Olive St.
Roosevelt Bldg.
Los Angeles
Dear Sir:
Only a matter of the gravest importance—what appears to me to be a real crisis in our national life—impels me in address these feebles to you. My address these fifty years ago is private in the ranks of the Democratic party, which so signally has honored you and which I believe you have honored, entitles me, I trust, to speak—if not with authority—at least with a right to your courteous attention.
Enclosed you will find a little booklet which I hope you will take time to read. I have had 90,000 copies of this printed and distributed at my own expense. I cite this merely to show that I have at heart what I consider not only welfare of my party but of country. Also, you will find an enclosed excerpt from the last speech made by Mr. Bryan at Madison Square Garden with which you no doubt are familiar, but which I hope will refresh your memory.
At Madison Square Garden you were the idol of the South, whose delegates work hard for your nomination. None more sincerely wished to see you nominated than myself, for I then believed, and still believe, you would have proved an able successor to the illustrious Woodrow Wilgon.
The bitterness of Madison Square Garden is to be regretted, but in the interest of the party, and the nation, it should not be perpetuated.
Your views on prohibition are well known, but to me they do not seem to be irreconcilable with those expressed by the Democratic candidate. He merely proposes to place before the country what he believes to be a remake of the Constitution of Prohibition. Surely you will agree that above he powerless to change the law, and that, if a majority of the people are opposed to the Volsted Law it is their undoubted right to change it. You surely have not forgotten that Woodrow Wilson, to my way of thinking, the greatest mind that ever occupied the White House, vetoed the Volsted Act?
Mr. Hoover's only expression on prohibition is that "it is a noble experiment and I would like to see it succeed." Senator Moses, campaigning in the East, now declares that Hoover is not wedded to the Volstead law, as Moses said, and effort to capture the wet East role for Hoover, is leading the Republicans into the wilderness. In my humble opinion the welfare not only of the Democratic party but of the nation itself now rests largely in your hands. Can it be possible that you still will remain silent when a few words from you saying that you indorse the party's candidate will keep South united and nurture its future property under Democratic rule?
Perhaps you have more reasons than most of us are aware of for a feeling of rancor and bitterness toward the Democratic candidate, but can you afford to nurse a private grudge at the expense of the public? You are not the only person are now a private citizen with a right to do ag you please, in view of your past leadership you cannot lightly cast aside the burden of responsibility that rests upon you. If the Solid South is lost to the Democratic Party it will not be on account of the South's opposition to prohibition, but due to the religious intolerance that is being preached from many of its pulpits, you, in the name of your self-respect, are suspicion that you now are proving false to the tenets preached by the Great Commander?
This, Mr. McAdoo, is a sincere appeal to your broad-mindedness, to that spirit of service which places the public interest above any private feeling or selfish consideration. Senator Norris has set a commendable example of public spiritedness. It Senator Norris exemplifies. It Senator Norris equally houses with themselves they would follow in the footsteps of the Nebraskan.
The issue of this campaign, is not prohibition, or religion, or farm relief, or even water power. It is something other than the issue of whether or not the nation is to be freed from the tentacles of the looters who have ruled it for
Most sincerely yours,

Amendment No. 5 sponsored by the Los Angeles Examiner and which proposes to repeal the present state regulated boxing law and substitute therefor the disgraceful four-round boxing which rocked the state prior to the present law by the many fiascos pulled off from time to time. This said four-round boxing law made perjurers, theives and sure thing men galore.
The present law is regulated and supervised by high class State Officials, appointed to these positions by the Governor. They are men of honor and integrity. It is their duty to see that all parties who go into the boxing business and the patrons as well receive a fair and square deal.
It has been well stated that the Commission regulation of boxers, managers, referees and others connected with the sport have made boxing in California a high type of public entertainment enjoyed by thousands.
The proposed initiative measure, No. 5, is a vicious measure and deserves defeat. It was born in iniquity and rocked in the cradle of intolerance, prejudice and hate. Fair minded citizens of all classes will do well to not only vote against it but work against it to the utmost.
To the Colored citizens it is an insult and affront to ask their support for this measure. The law was fine, nothing was wrong with it until George Godfrey defeated the Spaniard, Uzcudun at Wrigley Park before 30 or 40 thousand people in a fair and square physical contest. Then and not until then did the Examiner discover the brutality and demoralizing influence of the State regulated boxing law.
Intolerance and hatred have no place in justice loving California, where fair play and a square deal should reign for evermore.

ABOUT JACK BEAN
To the Public at Large:
Permit us to say that when our subdivision, known as Eureka Villa, had been badly hampered because of mismanagement; when our money for improvements had vanished to parts unknown; when the obligations of certain owners were not met, and a huge judgment was filed against the entire tract, preventing us from getting deeds and titles, and we were facing a calamity because of a grave necessity—IMPROVEMENT; who went to the bat for us?—JACK BEAN, and when all was said and done our honorable Board of Supervisors had granted an appropriation of $25,000 that those said improvements might be put in to take care of the needs of more than 1000 tax payers of that community and, too, those same said improvements are now being put in and will soon be completed.
The undersigned petitioned for this relief, and the undersigned sincerely hope that the Black Americans particularly will not forget ANY OFFICIAL who can get the co-operation of his fellow board members to take care of the people in his district, yet the appropriation for the improvements involved were in another official's district — namely, Supervisor Wright.

insisting that as far as the county is concerned, they have their just deserts before the county civil service commission, and the employment in county offices when duly qualified. The case in point is one that came directly under my observation, that of the employment of Mrs. Isabelle Clifton as typist-clerk in the offices of the General Hospital through the intervention of Mr. Bean. The facts as briefly recited are these: The young lady in question was discriminated against because of her color by a subordinate at the County Hospital, after being duly certified for the job by the Civil Service Commission. The situation was called to the attention of Mr. Bean by this writer. He declared himself as opposed to racial discrimination and felt that the treatment accorded Mrs. Clifton was un-American and unjust, and promised to rectify it if it was humanly possible.
He brought all of his energies and influence to bear on the situation and the job was promptly secured for her. Mrs. Clifton is now working in the office of the General Hospital, and reports to me that she is being splendidly treated.
3rd.-My conversations with Mr. Bean have impressed me with the fact that in his attitude toward our group he is not playing politics, but is absolutely sincere. He genuinely intends to do what is right by colored people. He is cognizant of the many obstacles he must surmount in carrying out this intention. He is only ONE of the board of supervisors, and not THE board of supervisors. He cannot be held responsible for certain conditions which we all deplore. Whenever possible he has promised and performed. He is our friend. Let us demonstrate our appreciation to him, and perhaps we shall win more friends through his example, and eventually obtain the things for which we aspire.

circular charging that: "The Anderson Boarding and Supply Co., 1041 North McCaulden place, was given the contract PROVIDED NO NEGROES WERE HIRED."
The contract referred to was entered into by the Board of Supervisors and Anderson Co. on the 24th day of September, 1928 and the word "white" appeared in line 6, page 2, and the words "white janitors" appeared in the next to the last line of page 2 or the original contract.
It was the writer of this article, and not the Grand Dragon and the midnight orators of the Association for the association of white men, who are fair enough to advance the interest of colored people by appointing them to public office, that first called Supervisor Bean's attention to the terms and conditions of the Anderson contract. Mr. Bean had never read the contract, and was surprised to know that the contract, by its terms, discriminated against all cooks and janitors who were not of the white race, and said: "One of my colleagues on the Board has charge of the San Gabriel Flood Control District, but I will do all in my power to prevent any discrimination against any class of people in Los Angeles County who may seek employment in the county service."
The matter was called to the attention of the Board of Supervisors, and in an open meeting of the board October 15, 1928, Mr. Bean said: "The contractors should be allowed to appoint any competent persons. To restrict them to white employees is an unjust discrimination against 75,000 worthy citizens of this county." The contract was changed, and the words "white" and "white janitors" were stricken out, leaving the contractors in a position to appoint any class of competent persons to do the work.
At the time these misleading circula
tions were being distributed east of
Main street, the Anderson contract
had been changed, and the objectiona
ble words had been stricken out.
Any person interested in good govern-
ment, or in the advancement of
colored people, could have ascertained
that fact by examining the public records in the Supervisors' office.

Why are these recently anointed leaders trying to assassinate and destroy the reputation of a man that has given more recognition to colored people than any other man in public office in the State of California? Why destroy the usefulness of the man who did more than any other one man to make the Nineteenth Annual Conference of the N. A. A. C. P. a success? These are questions to be answered by the brave committee that signed the misleading circular above referred to.
It was through the untiring and persistent efforts of the N. A. A. C. P., and the unqualified support of Supervisor Bean, that Colored girls were admitted to training as nurses at the County Hospital in September, 1919. We are proud of our girls that have taken advantage of this opportunity and qualified themselves to go out upon the world and render scientific service to suffering humanity; we are proud of the man that was big enough and broad enough in his views to open the door of opportunity to all men regardless of color; we are proud of the man who has consistently fought for the reduction of taxes in Los Angeles County, and succeeding in reducing our taxes about two (2) cents less than they were; we are proud of the unimpeachable record Supervisor Bean has made, and we appreciate his courageous stand for justice and fair play.
The N. A. A. C. P. has lost its bearings, and drifted away from the constructive leadership of nine years ago: in Los Angeles it is like a ship without sail or a rudder, going first in one direction and then in another direction, according to the whims of its whimsical leadership. We, as a group, can never hope for advancement so long as we smile the hand that reaches out to help us; we will never receive any recognition from the dominant race until we convince them that we are worthy of their respect and their confidence, and that we stand firmly upon the principle of equal opportunity—nothing more—and nothing less.

I am most enthusiastic in my support for the re-election of Mr. Bean for Supervisor of the 2nd District because of his efficiency, courage and fairness in the administration of his office. I am convinced that his re-election is vital to continued prosperity and general good to Los Angeles County.
KATHERINE J. BARR.
We would fall to do our most sacred duty if we did not vote—JACK BEAN SUPERVISOR—2nd District, Nov. 6th, 1928. We shall always remember the "bridge that carried us safely over," and are at least grateful and appreciative for his ten years of faithful service and personal friendship.

it is for men and women who are broad enough to practice Americanism, without favoritism for any group. This principle has been very apparent in the Honorable Jack Bean during his incumbency of the Supervisor's office. From a personal knowledge of his acts, I am appealing to my friends to vote for him on election day.
To the Voters of the
We ask the voters of the Second Supervisorial District to support Supervisor BEAN for re-election on November 6th. We believe that he has proven fair and impartial to all.
To the Voting Public:
Dear Friends: With the knowledge I have gleaned concerning the integrity, fairness, impartiality, capability and experience of J. H. "Jack" Bean, I am recommending that we, as a race see that the right man, in the person of Mr. Bean, be re-elected to the office of Supervisor of the Second District on Nov. 6, 1928.
W. BURLIN HUMPHREY, M. D.
Clara C. Hulbert appeals to the Voters of her group to stand up and show their appreciation for Jack Bean, Supervisor, as they did in the primary. Jack Bean has made it possible for many of our group to receive a living wage. We cannot afford to desert him now.
Mrs. C. D. Robinson. President of the Baptist Women's Convention, also President of Allensworth Literary and Industrial Club, appeals to all of her co-workers to remember our friend, Supervisor Bean, and vote for his reelection Nov. 6th, as he has proven himself a loyal friend.
Mrs. Flora Jackson appeals to the members of the Willing Heart Club
the scope of his interest as a citizen, with when I was in train Hospital, in the year I entered, Mr. Beavestigated the marriages that frequent and making both prospects of a future unbearable.
We want a man stratified his interest to again be plier. By all means via "Jack" Bean. Never

and the Choir Auxiliary Club of Independent Church of Christ to cast a vote of appreciation for Jack Bean at the election Nov. 6th.
Oct. 29, 1928.
Dear Friends:
Realizing that, this is the final week before the general election, I feel that it is my duty to recommend a candidate who is seeking re-election to the office of County Supervisor of the Second District, namely, J. H. Bean.
Mr. Bean has done everything in his power to make conditions for the Negro in the county of Los Angeles better. Besides many things he has accomplished for us, he has constantly adjusted the numerous situations brought to his attention in connection with the General Hospital.
With these thoughts in mind I am voicing my respect for this worthy candidate, J. H. "Jack" Bean.
Signed.
HELEN GLADDEN HARRIS.

Dear Friends:
We all are interested in the coming election with its outstanding candidates. I am in particular interested in the Supervisorial candidates for the Second District. I am a staunch supporter for J. H. "JAMK" BEAN, because of the knowledge I learned of his fairness to our people.
I must here say that I experienced the scope of his interest in the Negro as a citizen, with a citizen's rights, when I was in training at the County Hospital, in the year of 1920, the date I entered. Mr. Bean PROMPTLY investigated the many distressing conditions that frequently were arising and making both the training and prospects of a future as a Negro nurse unbeatable.
We want a man who has demonstrated his interest for the public welfare to again be placed in office. His MERIT has already been attested. By all means vote for Mr. J. H. "Jack" Dean. November 6. 1928.

Friday, November 2, 1928
The gala event of the season was staged by Mrs. Albert E. Duncan, chairman of the committee of arrangements and the members of the Wessley Chapel M. E. Chair on the afternoon of Sunday, October 26th in honor of their esteem grief, mother and beloved sister, Mrs A. J. Beall. Between fifty-five and sixty guests motored out to the Beautiful and spacious home of Mrs. Beall at 11336 Alabama St, carrying large baskets of the most delicious foodstuffs and refreshments, which were served in abundance to all. After dinner the guests assembled in front of the home and posed for pictures with the hostess and honored guest, Mrs. Beall, in the center.
A musical program was rendered as follows: Vocal diet by Mrs. Webster and Johnson; Tenor solo, Mr C. W. Wicks, Mrs. Coral G. Johnson, accompanist; the choir next assembled, Mrs. E. Markham, pianist; Mrs. C. G. Johnson, directress and sang the rythm, "Mighty Johovah" and several of the most favored spirituals; Mr. L. Arollin, tenor, sang one of his favorite solos. Mrs Beall, now bubbling over with "joy supreme" arose, and in her usual tender, sweet and loving way, not only welcomed her children, viz., the choir, pastor and all to her home, but expressed her sincere gratitude for their kind remembrance of her. And, as no one but a real loving mother can do, admonished her children to ever aspire to the highest peak of perfect manhood and womanhood. Oh, how our hearts did burn within us, when she so fervently importuned our Heavenly Father for his constant watch care over us! In response, our most worthy chairman, Mrs. Albert E. Duncan most heartily thanked Mrs Beall, thanked the choir for having made, the occasion a success and introduced Mrs. Coral G. Johnson, the new choir directress to Mrs. Beall as another of her dear children. Mrs Johnson's response too was one of gratitude to Mrs. Beall also to the choir for its cooperative spirit. After much cheering, embracing, hand shaking, etc., all departed saying they had spent a most enjoyable afternoon.

SUNDAY LUNCHEON
Marking the close of a series of magnificent special affairs congratulatory Dr Leon Whitaker upon his receiving the field of law practice there was the lovely lunch-on Miss Hazel Gottschalk on the afternoon of last Sunday week. The scene of the affair was the spacious home of Mr. and Mrs J. M. Edwards on East Seventeenth Street!
All who were there, seemed prone to remark concerning the abundant fulnessness of a most sumptuous repast. The motif of the heralding of Halloween was disclosed by the tasty pumpkin piece cards and sweets. During and between courses, the pleasant witty, brilliant and sane conversation attested to the gniality and versatility of the well assembled guests. Throughout the afternoon, Miss Luna Martinez, at the piano, charmed the atmosphere, with delightful music. About the fall of dusk, the hostess bade goodbye to the departing guests. Among those who partook of the enjoyment were Misses Bessie Barron, Helen Duncan, Elizabeth Trumble, Evelyn Moore, Florence Russell, Hilda Johnson, Hazel Gottschalk, Mr. and Mrs. Cornelia Bradford, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Brown, Mr. and Mrs. Chester Burke, Mr. and Mrs. William Gardner, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Webster, Mr. George Grant and Dr. Leon Whittaker.
Miss Ellen Miller entertained the Wednesday Evening Club at the beautiful home of Dr. and Mrs. Foster E. Driver on East 49th St. An elaborate Halloween dinner was served. Covers were laid for twelvig.
A large pumpkin on a motif of orange and black occupied the center of the table. Unique place cards were attached to this by means of orange ribbons, which upon being drawn disclosed tiny favors for each guest.
The house was tastefully decorated with autumn flowers, burnt orange and black being the prevalent colors. An interesting program was enjoyed by those present.
The honored guests were: Mrs. G. W. Crouch, formerly of Ft. Worth, Texas; Mrs. C. M. Haynes and Mrs. George Sneed.
Miss Miller was assisted by Mrs. Mason Driver and Susie Driver.
One of the swellest affairs of the Halloween season, was a party given Saturday night, Oct. 27th, by Mrs. Luciana. Dauplity, in honor of her sister, Miss G. grittue Evans. The house was beautifully decorated with yellow Chrysanthemums, black cats, witches, and etc. There were about fifty guests present.
All the ladies wore lovely Halloween costumes. Among some of the prettiest costumes were the ones worn by Miss Gertrude Evans, Mrs. Bradford, Mrs. Jordan, Miss R. Brown, Mrs. Otis Brown, Mrs. E. Johnson, Miss F. White, Mrs. M. Eads, and others who represented Chorus Girls, Mrs. V. Sandus, Miss M. Judkins, Chinese, Miss M. Hurd Dutch Girl, Mrs T. Brown, the girl of yesterday, Mrs Laura (Topsy), Mrs. A. Cotton (Mammy). Prizes were given Miss Thelisa Brown, 1st; Mrs. L. Laura, 2nd; Mrs M. Eads, 3rd.
Cards and dancing were the diversions of the evening. Delicious punch, and fortune sandwiches were served. Everybody was sorry when the clock struck 12, as that meant the end of a perfect evening of joy and fun.
Mrs. Lula Henderson entertained at breakfast Sunday Morning with a delightful and unique breakfast, for the "Ultra Smart Breakfast Club."
The members present were: Mae Murray, Marguerite Clark, Mae Collins, Marguerite Clay, Maudie Trokey, Homer Brothers, Eddie Mae Marshall and Lula Henderson.

"You're Next"
GREENAWAY
YOURE NEXT BY GLADYCE T. Gree
Halloween has come and gone with
its glamour and expense. The morning
after the night before many wake up
and say "There goes my five bucks
Gee. I could have bought so—and so"
Well anyway everybody seems to
have had a really jam-up time. The
Silver Fox Club entertained a group
of friends at the home of Miss Helen
Woodson on East Adams St. Halloween
en evening with a party that was
really out of this world. Red hot music,
horns, confetti, gorgeous costumes all
make for a good time. Leon Purdue
at the piano.
The bone crushing and jaw breaking season is now on. One may see the good old ancient game of torture-football at Jefferson High when the football season opens with a game between the Laddies Club and the N. N. B. The N. N. B.'s were victorious last year and hope to win the cup again this year. Two seasons ago the Merry Makers were victorious and also so hope to be crowned "kings" this year. Next Sunday citizens of L. A. will be privileged to see youth in all his glory marching to his doom at Jeff Hi at 2 P. M. Come out and watch the massacre.
The members of the Business Girls Club of the Y. W. C. A. 12th St Branch, attended the Nation Wide Banquet (Glendale and Los Angeles girls) held at the City Club, Oct. 23rd. Judge Georgia Bullock was speaker of the evening and gave an interesting talk on women of today and yesterday. One of the guests of the Business Girls Club of the 12th St Branch was Miss Marie Balthazar of Alexandria, La., a charming young lady who formerly was a teacher of the elementary grades in her home town. Miss Balthazar expects to make Los Angeles her home.
Members of the Business Girls Club are looking forward to the Mid-Winter Conference which will be held in Riverside this year.
We wish to extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved relatives of Miss Emma Lou Sayers, who passed away a few days ago, and also those of the Business Girls Club of which Miss Sayers was the founder a few years ago. We will always remember Miss Sayers as one thoughtful and kind, whose friendship we always valued.
Well the 600 are back. We've seen quite a few new suits on the streets, so we guess that's where the eixty bucks went to. It sure looked like some kind of plague had struck Central Avenue while the 600 were away. But now I see the same hangers-on are holding up the same lamp posts as of yore.
Well at last we are going to take part in a parade. An Armistice Day parade, with flags, n everything. In a private car, We're sure some class. The L. A. Urban League will be represented by Mrs. Katherine J. Barr, Executive Secy, Mr. F. C. Covinton, Industrial Secy, and yours truly. But after the parade we have to return to work, but we guess we can stand it.
Miss Sourcee Williams office attendant for Drs. Mitchell and Cobbs at 28th and Central Avenue, is on the sick list this week, but will be back on the job next week. Miss Yolanda Colomb is in charge of the offices during her absence.
Miss Harriet Jones, West side stenog, says she has just about caught up on her sleep after going north for the game. Harriet and her party were lavishly entertained in Oakland, San Francisco and Berkly.
We observed a man dining in a local cafe, and we're willing to bet his nose wasn't more than inch and one-half from his plate. He probably was near sighted and wanted to be sure of what had been served him, or maybe he was trying to find the steak he had ordered.
***
Don't men look funny when they cry in the theatre? During the showing of "Wins" at a downtown theatre, we noticed a man shedding many tears, but when the lights went up, he scooted as far down in his seat as he could, afraid the ladies would see that a great big he-man had been guilty of such a feminine trick. What's the odds about a few tears—there's more where they came from!

Miss Ellen Kussman is to be entertained with a party at a local) cabaret some time early in November, and it promises to be really red hot. Gee, class is just killing us. All the young friends of Ellen's promised to be there

After a delicious luncheon, whist was played until 5 o'clock.

MRS. ANNETTE JACKSON AND CHILDREN
300 ARE ENTERTAINED AT HOUSE WARMING IN NEW RESIDENCE
Another palatial residence has been added to the numerous ones already in Los Angeles, and environs. The house was so pretty, I don't know what part to tell you about first, Folks, and Friends. I've seen lots of houses, but for a small house, I've seen no better. To live in the neighborhood with Mr. and Mrs. L. B. Guy would really put me in a little strain. From three until seven P. M. they received and entertained friends very beautifully. Mr. and Mrs. L. B. Guy were assisted by Mrs. M. Davis Pope, Mrs. L. Morris, Mrs. F. Wicks, Mrs. E. Page and Mrs. A. C. Morgan.
of the ladder of fame. They have a
76 weeks contract over the Orpheum
Circuit, and are known as the Harris
Brothers. They make a good team—
both young, confident of success and
really there with the goods. Much
success to both Sams. They won't
play Los Angeles for some time to
come, but when they get here, all of
their friends will be watching for
them.
The new Mrs. Harold Lloyd (not
the movie actress) is housekeeping
at 1108 East 40th St. Mrs.Lloyd was
Miss Juanita Cole, the charming sister
of Mr. Louis Cole and was married
last Saturday evening at her father's
home on East Washington street. Rev.
S. M. Beane officiated.
Where is Grover Woods? There is
a young lady in this city who is really
singing the blues. Oh, Grover, where
art thou?
Frank Watkins, Sherman Williams and several other boys and girls almost heard the Jordan Roll the other evening when the car in which they were riding collided with another at 28th and Central Avenue. No. one was hurt, but it will be a warning.
Hoots From the Owl
To The Editor of the California
Eagle;
Hot dawg, there's sure some
Hoodwinking going on. Party
ter party hoodwinking on. The poor
sap voter, party leaders and preachers
attempting to sell their followers
votes in return for a Big Feast
and the honor of being in the
presence of a Notable Official at some
fashionable Cafe on the Avenue.
There is Hoodwinking going on
to be sure.
Police Commissioners and
Officers are trying to Hoodwink the
grand jury, and if the old OWL
doesn't look out he will be Hoodwinking too, and there will be no
more "Hoots" at least for a while.
If the Graf Zeppelin is as long
returning to Germany on its home-
ward journey as it was on its maiden
voyage to this county, they'll
sure have to have more food aboard
than "Pretzels and Beer."
Al Smith is a silver-tongued salesman of the "Latest Model." I'll bet he could sell Henry Ford a 1919 Lincoln, no foolin'. And from the speech that he made in Baltimore the other night against the KLAN one would almost think that he was talking for "Our" benefit alone, and might possibly make the mistak, of voting for him. For wed 'jest as soon try anything once.
But remember folks, this is the time for Hoodwinking and All ain't gold that glitters.
I sure think that Robert S. Abbott spoke the sentiment of the Wide-Awake and Thinking American Negro in his editorial which appeared in the Chicago Defender of Sat., Oct. 20, 1928 and should be dreaded to ere we go to the polls Nov. 6, and especially should the attention of Mr. C. H. Philips be called to it who is the Negro Nat'l Rep. Committeeman.

If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened
Page--Six
Any legislation based upon intolerance, prejudice and hate, should have the condemnation of all people who stand for justice and a square deal. Therefore there is only one way to vote on Amendment No. 5 and that way is to VOTE NO!
TUESDAY'S ELECTION
The closing of the present campaign is at hand and on Tuesday the people will render their verdict to which decision all must bow in humble acquiescence. In this section the campaign has been conducted so different from any other contest that it has been difficult to appreciate the far-fetched importance of the situation.
There has been a decided slowfulness in presenting issues and creating interest, and the people have been left to their own resources to "root, hog or die" as far as the proposition of educational interest is concerned.
Petty prejudice in leadership has cropped up in places when work was at hand to do. So under the circumstances Tuesday's election will be the closing chapter in some quarters for some would-be bosses.
OVER THE TOP
The election of the Republican standard bearer means more and better business. And that is what the people want. Sensing the thought it is confidently hoped and expected that with a strong pull altogether that Hoover and Curtis will go over the top.
NCW FOR BUSINESS
Buckling right down to business should now be the watch word. Let not elections or even its result deter your thoughts from the fact that you must continue to strive to qualify in the army of production and get somewhere along business lines.
AT IT AGAIN
The Collins case has developed into another tough spot for the Police Department in cluding the Police Commission. We have been and still are of the opinion, that our present Police Commission is able and fearless and will do their full duty in the premises. We await their verdict.
COMMUNITY GROWTH
Busy factories are as vital to the city and town as good crops and fair market prices are vital to the agricultural section. The manufacturing community—few American Communities do not have one or more industries—does not appreciate the value of its factories until a business depression shuts them down and puts their many employees out of work.
Formerly the inland community was a group of houses, a store or two, a church and a school. Its purpose seemed to have been little more than a meeting and shopping place for nearby farmers and their families. Eventually, as the nation drifted toward industrialism, factories were established in these little centers of population. These industries took what native labor they found and acted as a magnet for the surplus labor in the surrounding area. The community grew and new industries and more labor came
Today the process of industrial and community development is more complex. Experience has proved that, except in the largest cities, there is such a thing in the community as a point of saturation. Increasing the community population is not a simple expedition of inviting new industries to build there. Factories are built where there is a surplus of labor of a kind required by the particular industry. Steel mills are not established in a shoe manufacturing town, and vice versa. The industry must go to the labor supply for the labor surplus in this country is not so large that industry can place its thumb on it any place.
The community must build up its labor supply if it is to develop more industries and if it has a surplus of labor then the community must extend its industries. Community developing is a scientific rather than a hit-or-miss process.
BANKS AND PROGRESS
To people unacquainted with the inside workings of banking it appears that the bank, as far as progress is concerned, stands still. Change within the structure, of course, can take place but gradually, and for this reason it seems to many that the bank of today is pretty much the same in its essential characteristics and methods as the bank with which the great grandfathers of this generation did business. The American bank, however, could not have stood still. Its importance in the economic scheme of the nation has forced it to grow with the cuntrv.
There are evidences that American banking is approaching an era of great improvement. Constructive banking movements now under way throughout the country promise to make stronger banks, more efficient banks, bank offering a wider service, better understanding of banking both in and out of the cage, closer alliances between banks and public, greater respect for the banking profession and wiser spending and more systematic saving.
Communities are vitally interested in bigger and better banks. The old-fashioned, tradition-bound bank that refuses to adjust itself to changed conditions not only throttles its own development but that of the territory it professes to serve. An efficient, progressive, helpful banking institution reflects itself in a prosperous and industrious community.
The fact that the United States and its thousands of cities and towns have prospered and made progress is the best proof that its banks have not stood still. To no small extent is the development of the country traceable to the functions ably assumed by its providers of credit. Bankers must keep step with progress and usually do.
"Well, it's just around the corner," observed a merchant the other day, referring to the Christmas season. And so it is. The Christmas shopping season seems to begin earlier each year, and this is no exception. One Central Avenue shop has a sign out reading: "Christmas Cards," another downtown store notifies customers that its holiday stock will be on sale earlier than usual and all through the shopping section there are signs of pre-holiday activity. Postal officials are already beginning to worry. Last year, for example, a Christmas box sent by friends to a missionary family in China arrived five months after the holidays, and en route some hungry Chinaman had helped himself to the sweet-meats, which was just as well, considering how stale they would have been on arrival.
Already the sign shops are getting up their "Only 53 days 'til Christmas" and the "Do your Christmas Shopping Early" cards, and it will not be long before the post office will warn its patrons to "Mail your packages now."
Style hint: Divorce suits should be kept dark.
Some women think the only way to keep a husband is in hot water.
Talking movies won't be popular because they drown out the audience.
However, we notice that the cost of living isn't yet sufficiently high to make it exclusive.
Profanity owes much of its technic to people who deposit used model chewing gum on sidewalks.
The political race is near due. The presidential handicap, which features the 1928 meeting, is due to be run Nov. 6th. As they say on the race track, that will be the "Get Away Day" and the headquarters tout or pan-handling railbird that has failed in getting "HIS" is in a bad way for the next four years. According to the prognostications of the "Know Alls" whose wish is father to the thought, the Donkey wins by a head, or the Elephant wins by a trunk. If you are a betting man and want to place a ticket on the Elephant, you will have to place about five to one on his chance of leading the Donkey under the wire. To speak plain English, it is five to one that Herbert Hoover will be the next President of the United States. Hoover's managers, with all of the baly-hoo about carrying the Georgia and Tennessee seem to have given up the idea of breaking up the "Solid South" and turned their efforts to capturing the Atlantic industrial states. The speech of the Republican nominee at New York is convincing. His emphatic protest against public ownership of certain industries was a bid for the support of the financial east. One can see in the New York speech a virtual abandonment of governmental control of hydraulic power. That eliminates Tennessee (Mussel Shoals) from the Hoover column. Since that New York speech Southern California is wondering just how he stands on Boulder Dam. As much as we want to see the success of the Republican candidate, politics is a cold blooded game, played by cold blooded people, and should be looked at from a cold blooded angle. It is no pink tea game, nor can it successfully be played by the serving of ice cream and cake. One vote counts just as much as another. The vote which comes from the cottage is worth as much as the vote that comes from the castle. The successful vote getter is the person who knows "Jim Smith" every day and not only at the time when he wants to use that person for some purpose.
For the information of those who read this column we have been to the pains of seeking knowledge of the political situation in several debatable states. It has been our plan to seek such information from acquaintances with unbiased opinions, men who are no strangers to the game of politics, and who never become so blinded with enthusiasm that they can't see the danger. A. G. Plummer, Boston Mass., an astute student of conditions that effect the community, says, "The city of Boston is the barometer for gaining an insight as to the leaning of the electorate. Normally the city is Democrat, but in presidential years it has given the Republican nominee a consistent vote. This year seems to be an unusual one. The cosmopolite population is divided along racial lines. The French, which have been consistent Republicans, are now mainly Smith adherents. The same can be said of the Italian group. No doubt the question of prohibition has had much to do with the change. Of course the textile workers did not fall for the tariff talk of Hoover and what can be said of Massachusetts can be said of Rhode Island.' Writing from Missouri, we are informed that especially throughout the agricultural sections a strong fight will have to be made to counteract the impression made by Gov. Smith when he addressed the farmers at Sedalia. Sorry to say, but the indications are that St. Louis and Kansas City will give big majorities for the candidates of the Democrat party. Some of the correspondents seems to believe that Illinois is debatable ground, but after an analysis of the information, we hardly believe so.
Gov. Bilbo, Mississippi, is an example of the calibre of brains that is generally elected to office in states South of the Line. He started, or caused to be started the rumor that Secretary Hoover, while visiting the state in the cause of flood relief, visited a Negro family and while there danced with a Negro woman. To think that the executive of any state forming one of the galaxy of this Union, could be so void the very decencies, as to make such an assertion. It is that class of men who stir up enmity between races, causes mobs to murder and violate every rule of civilization. A man who holds the high office as executive of a sovereign state, who would, for purpose of fomenting racial hate, stoop to foster such an unthinkable canard should be shunned by, decent men, no difference the political belief. Not that it would have been a disgrace, but the conditions under which the visit was made makes it unbelievable. The disgrace would have been with the woman had she danced with the Mississippi Governor. As there is no danger of Bilbo's State casting its electoral vote for the Republican nominee, the lie seems the more silly.
Dispatches carried the news of the death of Senator Chas. A. Towne. He was on a speaking tour for the Democrat ticket. While stumping North Dakota he contracted a cold which developed pneumonia, and while stumping Arizona he became suddenly worse, was rushed to Tucson where he died. We had a very friendly acquaintance with the former Senator when both were residents of Minnesota. Every visit made to New York was never complete until we had met and conversed over the old days. One of the most genial men ever met. A loyal friend: the personification of probity, and a man of courage. He will be missed.
Referring to the canard of Gov. Bilbo and the dance his imagination conjured up of Mr. Hoover doing the terpsichorean act with Mrs. Booze, national committee woman from Bilbo's state, reminds us that Senator Heflin, who claims Alabama as his habitat, raises the racial question in his diatribes against Gov. Albert E. Smith. Both gentlemen hail from states who seek to keep the Negro in abject ignorance, and in doing so have proclaimed to the world that the United States of America can produce some of the most ignorant public office holders of any country. It is an example of "getting the man down in the gutter and in order to keep him there, staying down with him." No wonder the Negro voter is keeping "MUM!" He is
figuring out just where he is at. Heferlin, down in Alabama, tells the Democrats not to vote for Smith—The Democrat nominee—because he favors "Social Equality." Bilbo, down in Mississippi, says, "Don't vote for Hoover: He danced with a Negro woman!" Both Heferlin and Bilbo are fine specimen of intelligence which fill public office in the South.
New Jersey enacted a law recently giving authority to the superintendents of elections to strike from the registry books the names of such persons they believed illegally registered. The constitutionality of the act was upheld by the Supreme Court of New Jersey State. In Hudson County alone 24,000 names were disqualified. Where that will hurt the most is a question. For what purpose was the illegal registration made? Some party was to benefit by the illegal registration and it will be shown in the final result. It is claimed that when the officers went to serve the subpoeneas, aside from the vacant lots, the prospective voters proved to be parrots, cats, dogs and other specimens of life which had not yet been granted the right of franchise.

Senator Moses, New Hampshire, and eastern manager of the Republican National Committee, has caught the infection of colorphobia, and has raised the racial issue. In a speech before the Women's National Republican Club he severely criticized the appointment of Ferdinand Q. Morton to the Civil Service Commission, New York. But his spleen was directed, not so much to the appointment, with its $7,500 salary as it was that the stenographer of the incumbent was a white woman. No difference that Mr. Morton is a man of education and refinement who received the appointment under Gov. Smith because of his fitness. He is a Negro, and that in the eyes of Senator Moses and his ilk is an unpardonable offense against nature. That is one of the reasons why there is such a deflection of the Negro vote from the Republican party. The New York governor has never chosen his assistants for other than their fitness. Race, color, religion nor politics have ever influenced him in his selections. Jews, Protestants or Roman Catholics, Republicans or Democrats—the most capable were sought. It is that fairness and tolerance which makes him popular with the masses.
The Hon. Charles Curry, Dean of California representatives in Congress, will receive the most flattering vote of confidence and appreciation which his district has ever given him. His work for the reclamation projects and other legislation that effects the immediate vicinity makes him the unanimous choice of the voters without regard to party. He is now resting in Sacramento preparatory to the strenuous work which he has cut out for himself through the coming session of Congress. His progressive ideas of constructive legislation makes him a valuable asset to the party of his choice. Republican: Yet his disregard of partizanship, where the welfare of the district is concerned, assures him of the endorsement of the electorate without regard to political leaning.
It was not intended for me. Nevertheless we have had "oddles of fun" out of it, and wonder how such a sheet could pass muster through the mails of Uncle Sam. We refer to a sheet published in the city of Washington, D. C.—"The Fraternal Forum." It champions the cause of the Republican nominee for the presidency and from all indications is the official organ of the K. K. K. Here are some of the high lights:
"The solid South is for Hoover." "White supremacy must be maintained." "Negroes are flocking to Smith because he advocates social equality." "Negro office holder in New York drawing $7500 salary dictates to a white woman stenographer." There follows a picture of the interior of the office of Ferdinand Q. Morton seated at his desk and the stenographer taking dictation.
We have a vision of the editor, foaming at the mouth like an agitated viper. Eyes rolling in paroxysms of frenzy as he jabs his pen in the vitriolic fluid and stabs the paper in his rage. Oh My! There are further diatribes against the Negro, and if ever there was a scurrilous attack designed to alienate votes, that paper certainly will succeed. It sounds the slogan—"Down with Al Smith the champion of Rome and Rum."
That paper claims to be an authorization of the Republican National Committee. We can hardly believe that the astute managers of Herbert Hoover's campaign would sanction or authorize such a publication. Yet it is published in the city of Washington: Headquarters for the National Committee, and sent through the mails to prospective voters and workers in the Hoover camp. That is, non-colored workers. Surely Hawkins and Emmet Scott have been aware of the publication, and being aware of the fact must have called the attention of chairman Work to it. Rum, Romanism and Rebellion defeated James G. Blaine. It does not seem possible that the party which boasts of the past leadership of Lincoln, McKinley, Roosevelt and now claims the adherence to the principles of the "Open Door of Opportunity" could so degenerate. Yet it appears so. Does Charles Evans Hughes; Elihu Root; Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.; Charles Curtis, and the leaders who are advocating the retaining of the Republican party in power countenance and condone the circulating of a sheet designed to create enmities between peoples and fan the flame of racial hates?
What about the Race men who are at the head of the Colored Voters, Division? Does Hawkins, Scott, Barnett, Bob Vann and the rest of them place the stipends of their service above the welfare of the RACE? No wonder so many of the young voters, who are casting the first ballot for a chief executive, say that between the two evils they will choose the one which seems the lesser. Lots of them claim to have lost interest in the heads of the ticket and will vote for congressional representatives and amendments only. Many young men and women claim that one executive is as good as the other. What they want to see is, continued prosperity and to that end they are looking over the records of representatives on the tariff and kindred questions which have a bearing on national prosperity. "We are progressive voters" they say, "and we are trying to watch closely the trend of progressive ideas."
The agony will soon be over for some of the fellows who depend on the quadrennial political handicap to replenish the exchequer. The morning of November the 7th will be the gala day of the "I told you so's" and the "Didn't I tell you's", as Billie Jordan used to say at the sound of the gong,—"Let the best man win."

HEALTH-O-CRAMS

DIET
In this day and age we hear so much of diets, we thought a little consideration of the subject not amiss. We frequently hear some advice of this order: "Why don't you go on a certain diet it cured me." Let us point out a few of the things necessary to know of a person before you can prescribe a diet intelligently
Idiocyncrasy of Individual
Idiocynacrys of Individual
You may give one person any of the fruit juices while another person can't tol-rate fruit juices at all. This is just one of the many examples which could be given. What is t the calorific value of food you are prescribing? What number of calories should this individual have according to their weight and height?
Is the work which this person is doing calculated to demand more than the normal calorific content? What vitamine is the individual lacking? What vitamine content has the food I'm prescribing? How many vitamin are known? There function in human body? Are proteins being matabolism in system or are they being putrified and porcunning? Should the diet be to add flesh or take it off? What is the chinistry morbid in tissue function? What chemicals are necessary to repair tissue of human body? We ask these many questions not to act as a smoke screen to anyone but to start you withinking of what at damage you may do by advising your friends to use a certain diet if you have not considered these many angles of the case. A very great good can be done by dieting people if done scientifically but in the same ratio harm can be done by unscintile or ignorant dieting. To prescribe diet, scientifically you must have a complete history, a thorough physical examination, all the clinical evidence obtainable in a laboratory and a ready answer to all the questions asked in this article. We have relieved and cured patients of Asthma by dieting and fasting. However, we recently have treated (and that successfully) a case, had we followed the same routine of diet and fasting, well we would have had a dead patient now. We frequently think in this connection of what a Jew once said in regard to a shirt we were trying to buy from him but refused to buy because of one we had of same color which cost less. The Jew's retort was this: "Well, all gray mules are not the same." Of course it is obvious people are not either.
Says Negroes "Die Like Flies" At Hospital
(By The Associated Negro Press)
St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 30. "The poor Negroes of St. Louis are dying like flies at City Hospital No. 2."
This was the emphatic and excoriating statement made by Mrs. Gay Hudson, 3128 Choutan Avenue, following the death of her mother. Friday, Oct. 12. "I found my mother dead on a cot when I went to visit her at the noon visiting hour," declared Mrs. Hudson, okEfD eofJMo s iffiyo-Times;
"The Hospital is a disgrace to every el-arm-minded Negro as we all can see; but mighty few have nerve enough to complain. I am speaking for hundreds who are afraid to speak for themselves.
I put my mother there Thursday, at 11:45 A. M., one day prior to her death, and found her dead r uself with no screen around her bed. No body knows when she died. I am very much disgusted with the conditions at City Hospital No. 2, and with the inhuman treatment accorder patients of my race who because of necessity have to be sent to that institution for what some call medical attention."
Negroes of St. Louis were advised to vote in a city election for the passage of a Bend Issue, particularly because of an item therein which provided for a $1,500,000 hospital to be erected for our people on a site at Goode Avenue and St. Ferdinand St. Since the election of Victor J. Miller as Mayor of St. Louis, much opposition has been raised by him against carrying out this part of the program. The Mayor favors a proposal of having the institution for our people adjacent to City Hospital No. 1 for whites, where it is understood patients of our Race who are sent there could be used as clinical material for white students who are attending the several medical schools.
Jim-Crow annex to the hospital for whites would also mean the abolishment of the plan for our medical students to serve as interns, and the continuance of the school for training colored women.
Mr. W. R. Wingfield of Berkeley, California was in the city this week consulting with Mr. Bass of the Eagle, and Mr. B. B. Bratton of the Somerville Hotel, and Mr. Charles D. Watkins, concerning gan excursion to Hawaii in the early summer of next year. While Mr. Wingfield says that the plans are not completed as yet, but the public may expect definite arrangements at some early date. The excursion will be run under the auspices of the Elks.
Mr. Wingfield is a progressive young man employed by the Sales Department of the Standard Oil Company in Oakland, and also an active member of Athen's Lodge in that city.

John Lester Johnson
Billed to Beat Huf-
man at.San: Berdoo
| They call him “Old Man John Lest-
er.” the “Veteran” and various other
names denoting the passage of years,
bet to take a. look at John Lester
Johnsen, one would not think him to
be either
He certainly does not look old, and
battle marks are not there, not nearly
as Many as may be on the face of the
average preliminary boy.
Behind this all is a reason. In this
powerful heavyweight there is repre-
sented all that is ring smart crafty
clever and foxy. That it takes to keep
on fighting over a number of years
and still beat a lot of the youngsters.
Johnson is not near as old-as they
claim him to be, but he started boxing
when quite young and has been boxing
about twelve years. Although he is
his own manager most of the time he
‘drives some of the sharpest bargains,
ever made is signing a match-and is
elways careful to see that unscrup-
ulons persons do not work on his end
of the purse, During his long career
he hag met the best of all the great
ring men, but the outstanding feat
that has gotten him many a match
and stamps him as a heavy hitter is
that he broke two.of Dempsey’s ribs
et the time when both he and the ex-
champ were at their best. Two ten
rownd battles at the Olympic against
a knockout artist like Neal Clisby are
also creditable pegs in his career.
Just as we slide off the press John
Lester is entering the ring at San
Bernadino against Walter Hoffman.
Walter is young. strong and game
but at that with the veterans greater

Morrie Cohn features Mike Arnold and Neil Clisby on his card Thursday night.
This bout is a rematch and Clisby should win.
The Thunder Bolt knocked out Arnold in six rounds at "Berdo" some time ago.
Mike is from Manassa, Colo., and was classed as the second edition of Jack Dempsey, but when Neil started laying rights and lefts on his lug, he looked like the ham and egger he is.
On November 16, Black Jack Thompson gets his chance to bring another world's championship to the race, when he meets Joe Dundee in a return bout.
Young Jack put the hoks in Dundee in two rounds, in Chicago last summer, but since then he lost a one-sided bout to sensational Jackie Fields.
Dundee beat Waleott Langford in ten rounds the other day, and many are laying their coin for Joe to beat Thompson in the return match.

THE BLACK SPORT WORLD FORTH THE EYES OF HAMILTON ART
LONG TOM HAWKINS added another victim to his long list of K. O. victories, last Thursday night at San Bernardino when he knocked out Vic Alexander in three rounds.
Alexander hadn't done any training since he trained Mickey Walker for Armand Emanual; and he was hog fat.
Vic came in weighing 190 ad Tom tipped the Fairbanks at 224.
The first round was rather slow, with Hawkins feeling out Alexander with his long left. Long Tom buried his chin in his massive shoulders and made it hard for Vicious Vic to connect.
In the second round Hawkins lashed out with a right to the body and Alexander dropped for nine. Again and again he went down for a nine count.
The third opened with Vic rushing Hawkins and swinging a terrific right to the jaw that made Tom grant. Hawkins came back and bounced a hard right off of Alexander's ear, and they turned out the lights till next week.
John Lester Johnson, the man that broke two of Jack Dempsey's rigs meets Biff Hoffman in the ten-round main event at San Bernardino as we go to press.
Johnson is an old bird, and has fought the best of them. He lost a close decisio to Nell Clisy at the Olympic a few weeks ago. Hoffman is a hard hitter but John Lester should wf non his boving abl-Lester should win on his boxing ability.

5. BECAUSE the Company offers 8% per year on your investment, and you are, at the same time, part owner of the ground, building and equipment.
6. BECAUSE the Hotel Semerville is a monument to the efforts of the Colored people. One of which every person can speak with pride—an asset to every Colored landowner and a credit to the community.
7. BECAUSE the Hotel will encourage business people of the race to visit Los Angeles, spend their money here and later to return to enrich our community by establishing business enterprises.
8. BECAUSE it is our desire to have the Hotel owned and financed outright by the race.

EMMA MAITLAND IN MEXICO
New York, Oct. 30.—Emma Maitland is a present starring in the Latin Courtes, having completed a successful week in Mexico City where she played the Teatro Politeano. Miss Maitland has recovered from the recent operation she underwent and is heading her own revue, with Aurelia Whoeldin and Miss Chambers. From there they go to the Teatro Compaor in Havana, Cuba.
"Lonesome Road," Walter Weems; noted stage play, is ready to start under the direction of Paul Sloane, with Charles Gilpin, celebrated Negro stage actor, who created a furore in Eugene O'Nell's "Emperor Jones," playing the leading role. Gilpin has just arrived in Hollywood and, having what critics call "the most dramatic voice on the stage today," Gilpin is expected to give an inspired performance via Fox-Movietone.
Henry Lehrman has begun as his first Fox-Movietone production "The Cornet Rehearsal," co-authored by Sidney Lanfield and William F. Halligan. George Bickel, of the famous Bickel and Watson team, is playing an outstanding role in this production, with Arthur Stone, Marjorie Beebe, Jerry Madden, Arnold Lucy, Stuart Twin and Virginia Sale prominently cast. "In Dutch," an original story by Paul Gerard Smith and having the combined setting of Holland and Switzerland, will be Norman Taurog's next Fox-Movietone directorial effort. Taurog will have as his leads Clark and McCullough, the same pair he is now directing in "The Diplomats."
Preparations also are under way to feature Clark and McCullough in "The Ring," an original story of the squared circle by Paul Gerard Smith. Harry Sweet, erstwhile gag man and comedian, will direct.

! The Avenue has of late taken an
air of Prosperity. No Doubt this
condition is to a considerable degree
enhanced by the fact that so many mo-
mentarily.prosperus more extras have
expended large sums for the latest in
men's wear apparel. Be that as it
may, some of the Boys look right
tight tight.
Much has been said about how we behave on our trip. It is truly gratifying to learn that so many of our people have now begun to take some notice of the fact that the movie extra job and pay is of considerable interest to the community. We do not rest to the community. We do not doubt that it is. But we who are and have been definitely identified with the motion picture industry and therefore are Qualified to know something about it and the people who work at is make the pictures, demand a prior right to criticize our own kind. Much harm has been done the colored man in pictures recently by unqualified critics. Who know nothing of pictures. Let me say right right here, that there is no other kind of employment on the face of the globe that can be compared to motion picture work. It seems easy pickings to a person who has all of his life carried a hod, or shovelled sand and ets. But whenthat same person is hired at this game of easy pickings you should hear and see his protest at this and that.
It is true there are considerable vacant moments on a studio set, when nothing is doing and every body just sits around. To the buay hard working man this suspense is heartrending. He cannot bear it. So you see there are after all comparatively few people who are competent to follow the profession.
I am saying all of this because so much has been said about the type of fellows who left for Palm Springs to work and who subsequently refused to work as per schedule. They claim these work slackers were nothing but leafers and drifters. That is not true. The largest percentage of those who were laggard about appearing on the set when called, were person who are ordinary hard working men. They could not stand the gaff of motion picture work.
Concerning the conduct of these boys first we must doff our hats to Mr. Chas. E. Butler, of the Central Casting Corp., and Mr. Nathan Curry, who had the immediate charge of the men and the casting. It was their preconceived stratagey that really saved the day. I dressey the there never was a job of any kind where this many men some total strangers to each other, have been thrown together and got along so well. Mr. Butler, main stratagey coconfirmed in his original idea of not permitting any playing while the boy were away. That discouraged gambling and all its attendant evils—such as fighting and ets.
Willis Petroleum Company in Big Oil Deal
Authentic rumors are in circulation that the Willis Petroleum Company has consummated an important deal which will not only be of interest to the stockholders of the Willis Petroleum Company and the purchasers of Willis-Vistha Acres, Tracts, but to the entire California Oil Fraternity.
As our readers know, this Company was organised during the past year by Mr. R. W. Willis, now president and General Manager of the Company.
The Company owns much valuable Oil Land in the Piru-Fillmore District and a part of the land is being sub-divided and sold to our people in acre and half-acre tracts.
Much of the land is adapted to the growing of oranges, lemons, apricots and grapes and to the raising of chickens, turkeys and rabbits. Each tract purchaser is entitled to share in a per cent of all oil and gas produced on the 160 acres of the property.
Messrs. E. J. Porter and J. W. Jones, of 2701 South Central Avenue, are in charge of sales and will be glad to give prospective purchasers any information. Charles W. Russell and his brother, James M. Russell, Los Angeles and Pasadena business men are Treasurer and Secretary of the Company.

Comedy will again reign supreme at the Lincoln Theater when "is Zat So." James Gleason's merry comedy of the prize ring, is given a brilliant opening tonight. Wide interest has been aroused in the new production of the famous Lafayette Playens, colored artists, who promise to out-do themselves in this whimsical farce of fistdom which concerns the fortunes and misfortunes of a "pug" and his hard boiled manager who suddenly find themselves installed in a Fifth Avenue mansion as trainers—and servants.
An outstanding feature of the Lincoln Theater's production of "Is Zat So," is the fact that Santiago Zorrilla, famous colored boxer, has bene signed for a role in the play. Zorrilla will be seen as "John Duffy," chauffeur to the Hobartes, and in addition, he will box several exhibition rounds, with Charles Olden. Olden whose comedy characterizations i nall of the Lafayette Players presentations have won wide acclaim, has a real chance to display his talents along this line in "Is Zat So."
The comedian is seen as "Chick" Cowan, an "up and coming" light-

weight, and it is safe to predict that he will score an instant "knockout" with Lincoln audiences from the moment the curtain rises. Edward Thompson, popular leading man with the Lafayette troupe, has the role of "Hap" Burley, Chick's hard boiled manager. This is a unique role for Thompson who has heretefore played only "heroes" in the Lincoln attractions.
The remainder of the "Is Zat So" cast will include all your favorites in interesting and entertaining roles. It is easy to imagine the humorous incidents that pile one upon the other as the result of a chance meeting with a Fifth Avenue millionaire that lands "Chick" and "Hap" into his home. This is one of the highlights of the first act, and from that point on, merriment is king!
Laura Bowman, whose characterization in "Anna Christe" was one of the hits of last week's attraction, has an important role. Also featured are Bebe Towsend, Evelyn Preer, Monte Hawley, Cleo Desmond, Lawrence Criner, Sidney Kirkpatrick, Arthur Ray, Irene Wilson and Thomas M. Southern.

RAKESTRAW'S
RAILROAD
CLATTER
By
Joe Rakestraw
RAIL WAGE RISE URGED
Increases of wages for 66,000 employees of western railroads were recommended to President Coolidge today by an emergency board, headed by James R. Garfield, appointed to investigate a controversy which has threatened a strike in the territory. The board, whose findings will go to the railroad executives and unions concerned, suggests an alternative method of awarding the wage increase, and recommended that the additional pay be granted retroactively, effective May 1, 1928.
In explaining its findings, the board suggested that a 6½ per cent increase for conductors, brakemen, yardmen, flagmen and baggagemen in western territory would be justified if put in effect without any change in the present rules governing working service. At the same time, the railroads have tendered a 7½ per cent increase provided that the unions will agree to the elimination of wage-contract provisions which hinder the operation of trains with double engines and which limit the tonnage of freight allowed on a single train.
PULLMAN TENDERED ADMIT PORTERS DON'T WANT EMPLOYEE PLAN
According to A. L. Totten, Assistant General Organizer and Regional Zone Supervisor, Mid-Western Zone, Pullman Officials admitted to representatives of the Central Trades Labor Council of the American Federation of Labor, that the porters and maids don't want the Employee Representation Plan. Pullman representatives of Kansas City District say that Company must exert pressure and intimidation on porters in order to get them to vote, says Organizer Totten. It is also alleged by M. P. Webster, Organizer Chicago Division that Chicago men are standing firm against Company intimidation and the porters in his Zone have resolved to refuse to vote for Company Union regardless of coercion and penalizations.
Dad Moore and C. L. Dellums, Organizer and Secretary-Treasurer respectively, of Oakland and George S. Grant, Organizer of Los Angeles Districts; Paul L. Caldwell, Organizer of the Twin Cities of Minnesota; Silas M. Taylor, Organizer of Boston; S. E. Grain, Field Organizer at Washington, D. C.; Miss Oneida Brown, Organizer New Orleans; S. Hampton, Organizer, Fort Worth; Bennie Smith, Field Organizer and Supervisor of Pittsburgh Western Zone; report, according to A. Philip Randolph, President, and General Organizer, that the porters are refusing to vote against the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
While the Company conducts its Employee Representation Plan elections, in which porters have no choice to vote except for the Plan, the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is conducting elections in which opportunity is given Pullman porters to vote for either the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters or the Employee Representation Plan. According to General Organizer, A. Philip Randolph, the porters are overwhelmingly repudiating the Employee Plan and registering their approval of the Brotherhood and its demands.
DON'T SEEM TO REALIZE
In spite of the fact that the Pullman officials are attempting to claim that the Company Union is a voluntary affair, all kinds of co-workers, intimidation and threats are being made to compel the men to vote. Mr. Woods when asked point blank by one of the men if disagreeable consequence would be the result of not voting, after hehawning and beating around the bush, finally wound up with a statement that if the men did not like their jobs they should quit and get another. If the Pullman Porter is weak enough to think that he will ever get decent treatment and consideration from the officials of the Pullman Company until they are able to demand it through a strong organization not controlled by the Pullman Company they certainly must ignore what is going on around them. The tragedy of the whole struggle is a fact by a great many of the porters that do not fully realize that Organization means courage and sacrifice first of all.
DINING CAR LOCAL NOTES
Local's headquarters have been bequeased by the various political campaigners. While it is true that the Local takes a great interest in politics in disseminating such information as might be beneficial to them and their position in the whole national campaign is not what they are declaring but which they are supporting. Now we will get away from politics for a moment and mention some of the future activities of the Organization. A deal of interest has been demonstrated by the employees of the Southern Pacific in pledging their support for the organizing of a credit-Union.
With a purpose to promote, thrift among its members by encouraging investment of their savings in its shares and secondly to make loans at reasonable rates to its members for useful purposes and to relieve cases of need. Shares will, have a power value of $5.00 each and may be paid for in ten or twelve equal monthly payments. One of the attractive features of the Credit Union will be payment of dividends. Loans will be limited by law to $2000.00. When established this will be the only Negro bank of its nature in the State.

The Senior Mission Society of Friendship were the donors of a large supply of foodstuffs for the inmates of the Old Folk Home in Abila, last Thursday, which made many happy hearts. This society is headed by Mrs. Eva Burton whose reputation as a leader among women is unquestionable and speaks well for the organization in remembering the shut-ins.
The women of the Republican Club were addressed by Atty. Willis O. Tylr in their rooms, 456 E. Colorado street, at 8 P. M., last Thursday. A wonderful crowd was present and Mr. Tyler handled the situation wonderfully.

At the final meeting of their membership drive last Monday night at Friendship, Church a large crowd was present to listen to an address by Assemblyman Roberts, the principal speaker. Other questions of most vital interest to the Negro citizens of Pasadena were discussed intent upon getting a closer touch with the civic authorities concerning certain rights and privileges due them. This organization is making a determined fight to bring about certain results and only insists on a solid support of the members of the race to bring out this desired result. Heretofore this contention has taken the aspect of a one-man affair, but up to now no individual seems to get very far as concerns the Negro in Pasadena. Let's support this organization to the last man.
Rev.ittenhouse, pastor of the First Baptist Church will 'preach for Friendship next Sunday this being his initial appearance in this parish.
Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Troy of 310 N. Orange Grove were the hosts to more than 170 guests last Tuesday night to a masked Hallowe'en party, in the spacious and well appointed home. The house was geyly decorated in colors befitting the occasion with games to match and all else that goes to make up a well arranged goblin flesta. The ghosts stalked until 10 P. M. when they unmasked claiming the prizes offered for the best character and of course the booby to the most grotesque. Much music was in evidence, furnished by Chinn & Chinn orchestra. A hilarious time was had and all departed seeking a standing invitation for future occasions.
James "Slick" Stocks and sister have point blank refused to play in the Round Robin series of tennis games being played in Los Angeles, Sunday afternoon.

Rumors are afloat that wedding bells will soon be a ringing for a certain young couple afore long. Watch out.
Hallowe'en parties are much in evidence this week. Mrs. Edith Dotson's most beautiful home at 395 N. Vernon was the scene of much festivity last Thursday night when Club No. 11 gave a party. Mahy people were out and all enjoyed themselves as they always do when they go to Dotsons.
