PAY OFF LIST IS BARED
PAY
After all is said and done the Hon. J. R. Hawkins, and his able assistant secretary Albion Holsey of Tuskegee must be the goods and have rendered valiant services to the Republican Party without participating on the pay roll thereof. To add to this feature their stewardship was a successful one, and brought worthwhile results. These gentlemen should and no doubt will be given a listening ear in the councils of the party.
They made a dignified campaign, and in each section where their services were wanted they put the machinery of the party at work for the success of the Republican ticket. Early in the game the word went down the line: "Hands off in California," hence they did not participate.
As a result in so far as the group is concerned we had an apology for a Republican Campaign, no semblance of organization and had the election been close, this situation would have meant disaster. For be it known in the black belt many precints went for Smith.
This situation we hope and trust will never obtain again, for it certainly puts the West to a disadvantage in the general trend of political events. It may help some individual in their own solitary ends, but it is a travesty upon justice for the great masses of the Party.
In the Eastern section, we gleam from the payroll of $35 up that the pay off squares all debts and therefore the fellows which received not should be in on the running, when the pie counter opens up for business.
The following are prominent as pay off men and women:
John R. Hawkins, services and expenses donated to party: Abilion Holsey, services donated.

THE BAY OF THE WATER
Tiger Flowers, Here Shoots At Negro Chil-
"Won't you please help us to get well by nourishing our little frail bodies with rich milk, pure water, fresh air and God's glorious sunshine? Each year the Community Chest enables us to have an outing in the great out-doors where we meet with other undernourished children to rebuild our bodies robbed of their health and strength by cruel poverty." If you do not contribute to the chest this year we will not be able to go to the camp again next year. We are improving so nicely surely you don't want to rob us of our last chance for a real rich and full life. The Community Chest furnishes funds to more than 131 social agencies of the city. Five of those agencies are doing work specifically for the Negroes of Los Angeles. The Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., the East Side Mothers' Home, Sojourner Truth Home and the Urban League all receive aid direct from the Community Chest. If the citizens of Los Angeles fail to give their share in the drive of this week these agencies will suffer directly; hundreds will suffer indirectly.
Social service which aims to rehabilitate the unfortunate, the underprivileged and the victims of chance and circumstance is no one man's job. The conditions which demand the need for the existence of these various member agencies of the Community Chest are created by society and should, therefore, be relieved by society. No one can say today that they will not be in need of social relief and care tomorrow. Life is a strange chemistry. The man who has wonderful health and plenty of funds which seem to guarantee him perfect security today may be picked out of the debris of some great catastrophe tomorrow. It pays to have the spirit of the "Good Samaratin" at all times. If we are a Christian people we should realize that it is more blessed to give than to receive. Give to the CHEST

On The Sidewalk
By: C.A. B.
A few days ago it was a pleasure to contact our old friend, Mr. J. H. Willingham and note that he had secured the exclusive agency for Manchester High Grade Shoes for men. Now, the fact that Mr. Willingham is selling those shoes direct from the factory means an opportunity for you to save a dollar, and who knows, but what Mr. Willingham is paving the way for the opening of a much needed commodity along this line for the group.
In his discourse Sunday, to an allattentive membership, Dr. H. D. Prowd painted a word picture of two children who went out into the forest to pick wild flowers and got lost. The analogy was that too many Christians are lost in the wilderness of passion for some one of the pleasures of life which are least beneficial to Christian character building.
It is indeed a pleasure to congratulate the Rev. W. T. Cleggnorm, rector of St. Philip's Episcopal Church, upon the success he has made in this city, which in common demonstration speaks for itself at 28th and Stanford streets where the new Episcopal edifice is in process of erection.
in spite of the fact that there is in our midst even now, the blood thirsty mob, and color discrimination lurks in every corner of this mighty republic; nevertheless America is hailed as the liberty-loving center of civilization. Here all men enjoy freedom of speech, the privilege of serving God as they see fit.
No right thinking man attempts to tell another how he should worship God, how he should spend his hours of recreation, or how he should exercise his right of suffrage.
These are the indulgent rights of mankind.
In the right way and at the right time the Afro-American should demand proper recognition as an American citizen.
Noah's Ark, the great world war drawn with its appeal to all ages, nations, tastes, clauses and creeds is now playing at Grauman's Chinese Theatre at Hollywood.
In showing the American in the different tragic sores of the great world war as depicted in Noah's Ark, one looks humiliry for some deeds of bravery and valor by America's Black soldiers, especially since French history has so recorded that Black Men in the Franco-American army in the great world war wrought well as soldiers, but as the scenes in and out of the branches fit by nothing, no nothing to catch the eye, and quicken the imagination happens. The hopeful lose hope and stinks back into his seat to see it through when of a sudden a scene flashes out a crudely polish table around which is standing half a dozen Black soldiers neatly robbed in French uniform enjoying the spectacular recreation of scrap playing.
And then we solliciized, "Is this all they did to help to bring about permanent peace?"
And again we say that something must come to pass that will give the Black man his proper rating. He must stop being the funny man himself and by his own attitude towards life gain respect and consideration due a man, a citizen and a soldier.
There is a time to laugh and play and there is a time to work and be serious, and the Black man recognizes these periods as do others.

UNION PACIFIC PLANS NEW STATION
Official and practicle recognition of the growing importance of East Los Angeles and the triangular area incorporated between the cities of Pasadena, East San Pedro and Anahelm is given the announcement yesterday by the Unlon Pacific System of a new passenger station that is to be erected at the intersection of Atlantic Boulevard and Telegraph road. The new depot will be known as the East Los Angeles station. It will afford passengers in a wide range of territory an opportunity of reaching their homes or getting to the trains without the necessity or going through the heavy traffic of metropolitan Los Angeles.
Coincident with the completion of the East Los Angeles Station, work on which is to be started at once and which will involve an ultimate cost of upwards of $100,000.00, will be the inauguration of a parlor car bus service to a score of communities, giving each an improved service on all three passengers to and from points east of Los Angeles. However these buses will not engage in any inter-city traffic along their routes.
In its operation the new Union Pacific East Los Angeles Station will have a situation very similar to that of Englewood, just outside of the heart of Chicago. The Eastside industrial area development has been intense during the past two years and additional negotiation for more plans are underway which will insure still more rapid growth.
The East Los Angeles Station plans for which were completed by Gilbert Stanley Underwood, Los Angeles Architect, will represent an effort to recreate the old Spanish atmosphere of early California. In design its walls are to be of light stucco, capped by old spanish roofing of hand-made tile laid in irregular courses to give vibration in the sunlight. The building will stretch out some 144 feet in length along the right of way to the corner of Telegraph Road, Atlan Boulevard and Industrial Avenue. It will be unique among passenger Stations in that it will respond to the climate of Southern California, and provide not only an indoor waiting room for the more inclement but also an outdoor waiting room for the sunny days of summer.
BROTHERHOOD NOTES
According to A. Phillip Randolph President and General Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, a series of cases of intimidation and coercion practised by the Pullman Company upon Pullman Porters to compel them to vote in the employee plan or Company Union elections were presented to the United States Mediation Board, with a view of getting that body to take action against said intimidations.
In conference with Mr. Samuel Winslow, chairman of the Board and Mr. Bennett its attorney, Friday Nov. 9th 1928, in Washington D. C., the porters leader took up the violations of the Railway Labor act by the Pullman Company as shown through various methods which the Company employs to compel the porters to vote.
Mr. Randolph cited Section 111 under the head of "General Duties of the Railway Labor Act", which reads:
"Representatives for the purposes of this Act shall be designated by the representative parties in such manner as may be provided in the corporate organization or unincorporated association, or by other men of collective action, without interference, influence or coercion, exercised by other party for the said organization or designation of representatives by the other," in support of the grounds upon which he sought the interventions of the Board.
Mr. Randolph pointed out to the Mediation Board that were the porters permitted to choose as between the Employee Representation plan and the Brotherhood of Sleeping car porters, they would overwhelmingly decide in favor of the Brotherhood. He indicated that some porters had been held off their lines and framed by the companies agents, when they refused to vote for the plan.
According to General Organizer Randolph, every device available will be employed to expose the undemocratic unfair and an American methods the Pullman Company has employed in order to bolster up its tootling and cymbling Employee Representation Plan. He also indicated that despite the intimidations of the Company upon the porters, that throughout the country, large numbers of Brotherhood men were refusing unqualifiedly to vote.
Bandolph To Be In City.
According to Geo. S. Grant Local Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Cat Porters. A. Phillip Randolph President and General organizer of the National Body will be in the city during the latter part of December.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT----?
Ask a Negro why he does not put his money in a Negro bank and he will probably tell you that he "just don't like the idea of giving those Negroes his money to keep." He gets the same rate of interest and the same service, but still he is "giving" his money to those Negroes. Just because, he gets his pay from some white man he feels that he must turn around and put it in the hands of another white man who will, of course, use the money to make for himself a profit.
Watch the grocery stores on any Saturday. The poor Negro merchant, who has given credit all the week, paid a delivery boy, kept a wagon or truck going and has given good service, is passed by the shoppers, who having just been paid, have their pockets full of ready cash to go to the white chain store because the sign in the window says the price is a few cents cheaper. But they must pay cash (sometimes bus fare two ways) carry their own goods, and be half-heartedly served by a disinterested white clerk. Unnecessary to say, the profits are received by a white corporation and the luxuries that profits buy go to them also.
We cannot get now, the book learning that we want our children to have but we can get and use more common sense. If we want the world to keep marvelling at our rapid progress, we must be progressive. And the only way to progress in these United States is to build our future upon that must solid of structures, "Economic Independence."
In other words we must learn the lesson of cooperation. If we help our black neighbor he will help us. Not because of gratitude or sentiment but because it is simply good business. To all Negroes we say, patronize your own kind, for by doing so, you are making an investment which shall return to you a profit which shall always increase as the years go on.

Your Big Opportunity
Hoots Of The Owl
To The Editor of
The California Eagle:
Well, well, well! Looks as if
"Aimee" and some of our famous
detectives are about to play another
game of 'HIDE-AN-SEEK', with
the grand jury.
I wonder will we find them at
(Carmel by the sea) or (In a dusty
shack far out in the desert in
Mexico?)
You know that it's an ill wind
that blows no one good.
And you know that ever since
the Collins-Jones case came up the
soup in the political pot has been
stirred (from the bottom) and oh
boy! it sure smells like the soup
has been burning for a long time.
We read where Mrs. Grimes let
the cat out of the bag and admitted
that Carl . . . Jacobson was FRAM-
ED.
We don't know why she OPENED UP, but we have all reason to believe that she got tired of waiting for the rest of the $25,000. Now, the man (whom we all know) should have known the age old saying that "If you promise a woman anything you'd better do it or you will hear from it later." That reminds me folks, I promised my wife I'd be home early tonight. (For once balogna).
Al Smith and I are about the only ones that are not worried because he was not elected president. Some people think that he is broke, and they all know that I am broke. He says that "he will never run for public office again," and I've said that I'd never vote for a Republican Office-Getter again—so we've both decided that I should attend to my own business and leave his alone.
Wasn't it shocking to note that there was no (RUFF STUFF) pulled during the election in Chicago? Maybe they were trying to set an example for Mexico.
O wait, I just read the other day where Mrs. Cora W. Stewart, director of the International Illiteracy Crusade told members of the Executive Club that 173,987 persons in Illinois were illiterate and that in Chicago alone 66,000 were found to be that way, and didn't know their A B C's. No wonder they have so many gang wars in the Windy City, half of 'em are fighting over the Little Brown Jug and the other half don't know what'n th...I they are fighting for.
Yours,
THOMAS ROWLETT

Rev. J. A. H. Eldridge, pastor of Providence Baptist Church, has recently returned from Fresno, where he conducted a twoweeks' Revival at the Second Baptist Church, of which the Rev. F. D. Haynes is pastor. During these services 27 members were added to the Church, 24 as candidates for baptism and on the first Sunday of November which marked the closing of the Revival the Church witnessed the greatest baptismal service of its history.
Rev. Eldridge will live long in the hearts of the people of Fresno, for the Revival was one of the greatest ever held in that city.
Rev. Chas. H. Hampton had charge of Providence during the absence of the pastor and proved himself to be a preacher and pastor of no mean ability.

Popular Pastor and Family Honored With Banquet
Kev. i. Albert Moore and family were honor guests at a banquet Thursday night, November 8th, in the dining room of the First A. M. E. Zion Church, the motif being the return of the Reverend Mr. Moore for the fourth pastoral term. More than two hundred guests enjoyed the four-course menu, the music and the addresses that made up the evening's program. The elaborate floral decorations were contributed and arranged by the well-known florist, H. F. Warren. The floral centerpieces placed upon the tables of the honorees and other prominent guests were especially beautiful and displayed in a pronounced way the artistic skill of the florist.
The enthusiasm with which the members and friends of the A. M. E. Zion Church received the news from the Southwest Rocky Mountain Conference that Pastor Moore had been returned to Los Angeles for another year, evidenced clearly the popularity of the active and capable minister.
Among the notables heard in musical numbers were Miss-Evelyn Moore, a charming soprano; Miss Hazel Gottschalk, pianist; Prof. H. E. Wheaton, violinist with piano accompaniment by Mrs. Anna Lee Wilson; Prof. W. A. Bynum, saxophone soloist; Mr. Jackson, the popular baritone and little Miss Wilson, a pupil of Miss Hazel Gottschalk in piano solo.
Speeches of felicitation were made by Bishon J. W. Marton, Revs. A. P. Shaw, E. E. Lightner, v. G. Robinson, E. H. Clark, G. W. Reed, J. E. McCorkle and Attorney Leon Whitaker. Both Pastor and Mrs. Moore, also their daughter, Miss Janet Moore were gracious in their responses. J. C. Banks of the U. S. Customs Service acted as Master of Ceremonies.
The First A. M. E. Zion Church has long been one of the important agencies in the city of Los Angeles for religious as well as civic and social advancement among the people, and its direct influence along these lines extend to many points in Southern California. The spiritual as well as the material interests of this church have advanced with remarkable rapidity during Pastor Moore's administration, and his carefully co-ordinated program of religious and social service bespeaks the valuable contribution the Zion Church will make to community betterment during the present year. Pastor Moore has also been honored recently by his election to the office of president of the Interdenominational Ministers' Alliance of Los Angeles.

MACEDQNIA BAPTIST CHURCH
Rev. L. M. Curtis, Pastor
Sunday School was very good. Many teachers and students were out on time. This being "Armistice Day" the church was decorated with flags and flowers. Pastor Curtis preached a special sermon using for his subject: "PEACE" and in the afternoon the pastor filled an engagement in Santa Barbara.
The B. Y. P. U. had its regular at 6:30, a large group of our congregation was present. The review of the lesson was splendid made by our Miss Amanda Burdett. This young lady set an example for our young people and we are asking that more would volunteer as Miss Burdett did.
At 7:45 we indulged in a very interesting program by ex-service men. Many speakers were present telling us the history of the war which was more than interesting. Mr. LeRoy Kelly was the Master of Ceremonies. Rev. Tellus had charge of the devotionals during the absence of the pastor.
Last Wednesday evening, Macedonia and friends gave Rev. Curtis a birthday party surprise. The pastor was purposely detained at the office of W. R. Knox until after 9:30. After reaching home one of the Trustees went over to his home and asked that he would come over and be in their meeting, the dining room was darkened, and when he reached the back door, the light from the dining room was immediately flashed on and more than a hundred voices shouted: "Rev. Curtis."
The dining room was decorated elaborately with beautiful flowers. A special guest table was prepared for the pastor, his family and special guests, displaying beautiful linen and silver. Cake, ice cream and sandwiches were served in abundance. Sisters Perkins and Tacheuchi baked the special birthday cakes. Different departments of the church were represented. Mr. LeRoy Kelly represented the Senior Choir; Mrs. Bird the Mission Circle; Francis Burke the S. S.;
Thelma Clausel the B. Y. P. U.; Miss Amanda Burdett the Junior Church; Miss Edite Kelly the Junior Choir and Walter Perkins the Boy Scouts. Rev. Curtis received many beautiful and useful gifts of which he feels very grateful to all. This move had the co-operation by all, but was sponsored by the Senior Choir. The Senior Choir has begun special work with their Xmas Cantata. Sunday, November 13th will fill us again in our regular services and a hearty welcome await those of our friends that choose to worship with us.
Looking Through Garvey's
BY F. HYDE
Time, and time over it has been said of some people that they talk about things that they do not understand, and more often than once do they make statements that they themselves do not believe. To the satisfaction of the reader let us see can just a few facts be brought out to substantiate the aforegoing statements. In the offset off“Garvey's African Redemption Program”—The Cry of the masses of black humanity everywhere. Could not see the possibility or rather the necessity for such a great undertaking, and denounced their dissaproval of the program, as being the idea of some“Faker.” The motive of which was to enrich himself at the expense of the masses. Away with that junk, its all bughouse tails was the cray. Suppose we stop right here and examine just a few planks out of the platform of the program of this formerly socalled“Joker” for the soul purpose of convincing one's that impartial charge made as in the preface of the article is without fair of grounded contradiction. Well! Let us talk about the planks on the platform, says the inquiry reader to the writer, Alright, let's see. To begin with the first one says. Let us establish a universal confaternity among the race, which will promote that racial spirit of pride and love assist in civilizing our brothers in and by so doing it will enable us to Africa. Then too we should work in of those independent states in Africa, unison to strengthen the nationalism such as Liberia and Abyssinia, and have our representative's all over the world. So as to insure protection for all black people. We should also have colleges and University for the racial education and culture of our young men and women and besides we must promote a world-wide commercial and industrial interscourse for the benefit of the race at large and the betterment of the same. Now, there you are my man. That's some of the main planks. Well! That sounds good, but I don't believe, maybe so, and maybe not. But listen, here is how I feel about that. I would like to see our people all over the world, start doing something in the way of improvement. We have men in our race who have enough money to set up any kind of enterprise. We could trade with one another from one country to the other; do like the white man is doing. I mean do things on a big scale, understand me? Have our own banks and factories, then when our children graduates from school, they won't have to shine shoes and wash dishes. Make everything we want for ourselves and quit depending on the white man so much, for I'll tell you, he's getting tired of carrying us, that's all! But we must co-operate first, before we can do anything; make our own jobs, our own factories, buy our own ships, build our own schools and if necessary, have our own government. So when a Negro is burned or lynched or mistreated anywhere, he'll have protection“(Referce). Well! here's facts folks, this is just another convoluted affair“(Talk about what they don't understand, and saying what they don't believe.

Lecturing to a group of university students a sociological
expert told her audience that one of the questions put by psy-
chologists to business leaders—in an attempt to construct an
Anatomy of Leadership—was: “Do you always try to correct
people who make erroneous statements?”
It would bd interesting to know whether a “Yes” or “No”
to this inquiry’is regarded as exhibiting ‘the qualities essential
to leadership. On the one hand, it might be argued that a per-
son who insisted on correcting the erroneous statements of ath-
ers in and out of season would probably be knocked in the head
by justly infuriated fellow-citizens before he advanced very far
in life. On the other hand. a person who never corrected the
erroneous statements of others might miss any chance of being
picked out for leadership by appearing to identify himself with
the mistakes of his fellows. Z
This seems to be one of those questions which require a
certain tact in answering. Probably some of those who have
succeeded in life would propound another answer by way of
reply and inquire: “Erroneous statements made by whom?"
Public esteem does not go out to those who habitually per-
mit misstatements to go unchallenged, nor is he held in high
esteem by his fellow men who leaves no statement uncontra-
dicted. The safe und sane course to follow seems to be, in this
case, the middle course. The born leader has the faculty of
knowing when to challenge and whén to leave to flexible Truth
her own defense. :
PARENTS AND PUPILS =
A.common and seemingly warranted complaint among
public school teachers is to the effect that parents in general
show too little interest in the e-lucation of their children." It has
been said, as a general proposition, that parental _ assistance,
however untrained, is more deneficial to the child than educat-
ed but indifferent parents.
Most parents consider their obligation and responsibility
ended when they pay their school taxes and see that their off-
springs are punctual and regular in their school attendance.
‘Their interest in the schoo! progress of the child begins and ends
with the signing of the monthly school reports. :
Teachers claim they can single out of a large and represen-
tative class the pupils who receive, at home, instruction and
sympathetic co-operation in their school work . These pupils—
usually few in number—invariably show greater progress, They
are the leaders in their classes.
‘The parent who displays no interest in the progress of the
child cannot expect the child to show much interest in his own
progress. The neglectful parent is very apt to have a delin-
quent child.
One way to abate the disturbing upward trend of school
taxes is to return to the home part of the job of educating young
America, Is this asking too much of the parent? :
As time passes opportunity knocks constantly and along
business lines the door of hope is always ajar. In the face of
this actuation it is amazing how few enter therein. However. we
must continue to call attention to the fact, if we as a class ex-
pect to get anywhere we cannot afford to refuse to enter the
marts of business or fail us producers, both along business
lines and from the soil of tie earth. ' :
Yawning, at your door stands the great Heflin Manufac-
turing Company, producing furniture, making caskets, and em-
ploving their own race as ‘workmen. If we continue to give
Barker Bros., the Eastern Outfitting Company, our trade in-
stead of our own Company, which employs our own, men wo-
men, boys and girls, where and how do we expect to advance.
Yes, colored undertakers bury only colored people, then if not,
why not buy their caskets from their own Companies? These
among others are the opportunities which are passing as the
ship in the night.
Make up your mind to become economically independent
by grasping the opportunity to build up business opportunities
which will give you a break.
Here you are with the greatest opportunities ever offered
to mankind, yet it has failed to appeal] to you in all of its full-
ness, right here in the community a virile and staunch press, is
continually shouting to arms, yet you grasp them not. Your
response has been so weak and feeble that you have woefully
failed to hold your own newspapers up, so they can carry on
even to greater heights, nigh unto 100,000 people and not one
of the major business houses in this great city is concerned
about you to solicit your patronage through the gateway of
your own press.
Yes the Eastern Outfitters waxes fat off your stupid in-
difference and others likewjse and we call-upon you to wake up
and grasp your opportunity to build and erect businesses of
vour own. i
It looks like a new era of prosperity for the nation, and the
time is right now to line up with all the habiliments for warfare,
in order to take every advantage and opportunity along busi-
pens lines, for the ultimate solution of the problems which con-
‘ront us. *

The American people are in revolt against ugliness. On
everv hand the demand for beauty is He evidence. Parks are
not the only sign that the public is beginning to recognize and
value beauty. In addition to millions authorized for the pur-
chase and maintenance of parks for pleasure, authority has
been given the expenditure of more millions for the erection of
imposing public buildings. There are beautiful state houses,
city halls. nost offices and other public structures, Modern
school buildings and grounds frequently rival in beauty the
handsome estates of the rich and the children who attend such
schools unconsciously receive an education in taste and beauty.
Tt was proper and necessary for the nation to build for util-
ity first. Rapid growth is not conducive to art and grace, which
are the fruits and playthings of ease and plenty. America can
now afford to spend time and money on “dressing up” and is
doing as efficient a job of it as she did with her development
along utilitarian lines. Slowly, but surely, her face is changing
for the better.
Americans go to Europe and Asia to view the architectural
and engineering wonders of the past. All the world travels to
the United States to see the engineering and structural wonders
and the architectural beauties of the present. What America
lacks in antiquity she is making up in grandeour and grace.
PERILOUS PREJUDICE +
. Just how far intolerance prejudice, and hatred will go, .is
exemplified in some of the press reports, from the ship disaster
on high seas, when one hundred or fore persons lost their lives
the early part of this week, In one account a writer states that
four Negroes who were members of the crew ruthlessly drove
off a woman who sought refuge,in a life boat and sought only
to save themselves. In a later atcount the same woman in giv-

|__ Virginia, North Carolina, Florida and Texas, broke the
tradition of the “Solid South” and will cast their electoral votes
for the Republican nominee. Not since the days of reconstruc-

has there been a trend of those states from the Democrat party.
When Federal supervision was drawn from the polls by Ruther-

party councils. This faction told the leaders of the Republican
party that the only way to break the solid south was to elimin-

place in the councils of the party he (the Negro) has finally

A resolution was offered in the Mississippi legislature to|
remove the bodies of Generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall |
Jackson, Confederate leaders, from the soil of “Republican Yi
ginia” (?) to Democratic soil in Mississippi. How sad! What
a commentary on the intelligence of “Dixie.” Could anything
breathe more of thé spirit of intolerance? Could thére be any
more abject acknowledgement of bigoted idiocy? Unless it
happens to be the exhibition of mourning which the citizens of
Nashville, Tenn., indulged in, They; draped the statue of An-
drew Jackson with heavy mourning, and placed a floral wreath
at the base with this inscription “Thomas Jefferson was the
founder and philosopher of Democracy—Andrew Jackson veas|
the crusader and the sword.” It does not justify the claim for
a 100 per cent Americanism for any section to thus exploit its |
chagrin at the will of the majority. ‘The Philosopher of the doc-
trines which they extoll, himself was a firm believer in the will
of the majority. Neither Jefferson nor Jackson would have con-
doned the exhibitions of bigotry and intolerance which these |
who claim to be followers of their teachings, are giving to the
people of the nation. . cart

Religious animosities are so deeply imbedded in humar na-
ture that it takes but a small breeze to fan the blaze into a con-
flagration. It is at once the hope of a few and the fear of manv..
Its many twists and quirks has opened many avenues for ex.
ploiting hatreds and exploiting fears, Religious wars have been
the most cruel'in the annals of history. An analysis of the past
election will show that it entered greatly in the final result. Pro-
hibition and the rest of the issues were but a camouflage; a
smoke sereen to cover the attack on the main position. Fear
was the element born of religious intolerance... Fear of the dom-
ihation of the tiara and scepter awoke visions in the minds of
men and women which dominated their judgment. There ex-
ists in the United States a condition where the element of fear, |
fear of religious and race domination, has reached a near fren-
zy. Just why 120 million people should fear the domination
of 10 or 12 million has seemed an enigma, Yet “white suprem-
acy” has been the rallying ery for the pélitical opportunist when
other issues have failed to enthuse. During the course of the
campaign religious enthusiasts grew loud in denouncing the

There was no party alignment. No defined clear cut is-
sues which had, heretofore, caused a division of opinions. The
nation was obsessed by one idea, and that idea caused men to
forsake their party, and what is funny, still clinging to the par-
ie name, which they hold sacrazant. Soon after it was decreed
that the candidate of their choice had won they paraded
to the public, “We are still loyal Democrats” and though the
opposite party may feel elated at the annexation of our votes,
itis not for long. ‘They will not add, that narrowness of vision
and cabalistic leanings, were the main causes of their party de-
flection. There were open attacks against the Negro, and many
of them believed that it was an opportune time to test the fair-
ness of the American people. Surely, they thought, if the han-
dicap of religious intolerance can be overcome there is hope
that the less ingrained hatred of color and race can be, at least,
‘ameliorated. Some of them too set uside a party name which
‘they had held in reverence and lined up in the ranks to battle
against the things which proscribed their racial advancement.
He knew what religious intolerance; religious bigotry was the
most deep seated of human prejudices. Here was a situation.
It was too great to be overcome. i
____ A noted columnist pooh poohs the ided of Russia's attempt
to create, or establish, a Republic in South Africa on Communist
lines, He cites the attempt in Liberia. He says that even with
encuragement from the United States, it did not work. He says
further, that South African natives will not have the slightest
understanding of Bolshevist talk, nnd that Communism might as
well talk of establishing a reproduction of Cambridge or Ox-
ford lat the edge of the Congo. It may be that some of the
South African leaders (Black) have been educated at one or
the other of these seats of learning named, and that they have
been disseminating for years the seed from which republics
grow. It may prove to be a “noble experiment.”
Earl Jenson, director of state institutions says that the in-
stitutions for the feeble minded and incorrigable are greatly
over-crowded. It is the same with the penal institutions of the
state. There is something vitally wrong with the social system
of California when such conditions exist. We have a greater
preponderance of criminals and imbeciles, population consider-
ing, than several of the less fayored states. California expends
considerable in the effort to create surroundings which should
make for a decrease in criminality and imbecility.
The humanitarian budget compares favorably with that of
any other state. She provides amusement for youth and age.
Imbecility should be one of the state's east burdens. The health
giving recreations and the constant survey of the young should
cut imbeciles and incorrigibles to the minimum.

What should be termed_an epoch in this political era is
the election to the Congress of the United States of the Hon, Os-
car DePriest, from the First District. The First is one of the
wealthiest of the Illinois, congressional districts. It takes in the,
vast Loop district which comprises the vast financial district.
Mr. DePriest will represent all of the people, and in represent-
ing them all he will represent the people with which he is iden-
tified racially, It is the hope of every thoughtful Negro that
Mr. DePriest will rise to the heights of American statesman-
ship, and be able to competently meet every emergency.

There will be three women added to the membership roll
of the next congress and it is a peculiar coincidence that each:
bears the given name of Ruth. Mrs, Rath McCormick, Repub-
lican, elected at large from Illinois, is a daughter of the late
Mark Hanna who was famed for his political astuteness. The’
daughter comes by het political acumen honestly. Then there
is the daughter of the great Commoner, the late William Jen-
nings Bryan, and her name is Ruth Bryan, congresswoman elect
from Florida. The next is Ruth Pratt, congresswoman elect
from New York. A trio of Ruths.which in intelligence will com-
pare favorably with the average congressman. |
Texas elected a lore Republican congressman. That is he
was re-elected. One would have thought with the debacle of
democracy in the national battle that a few of the aspirants for
Republican office would have slipped through. Just scan the |
successful state candidates of the Southern states which voted |
Hoover and see how many democrats were defeated. No, the
“Solid South” is unbroken, and in the next clection will prove
its solid Democracy. Never, until intelligence and true Ameri-
can patriotism has broken down the barriers of prejudiced fear
will that section of Amerie throw off the yoke of the hatreds !
which bar their progress. :
In California, the ‘people have sanctioned the measure for |
legislative reapportionment. The measure was fought stub
bornly by the populous communities because it cut down their
representation in the Senate . It will also cause a loss of Assem-
blymen in some of the counties. Especially will it effect San
Francisco, which will in addition to the loss of six senators, lose |
three assemblymen. It is argued that the reapportionment is
fair inasmuch as it provides a balance in the State's representa- |
tion which did not exist before. The initiative for the repeal of
the State Boxing Law was snowed under. The same fate met|
the Rodeo prohibition. A reform law which would have put a
stop to exhibitions of skill as practised by range riders. The
people are becoming wary of the professional reformey, and are |
dubious about their activities. | |
My, what a vote! The opposition to the re-election of |
Senator Hiram Johnson was negligible. His election was con-
ceded by all. But the electorate of California wanted to show |
fo the country in what esteem they held the doughty exponent
of the peoples rights. They marched to the polls and register-
ed their approval by giving hi mone of the biggest majorities
ever given a canflidate for office in any state with a like popu-
lation. Over 800,000 registered their sanction of the fight he
has been making against the power monopoly. Through their
ballots they have eagerly sought to show their gratitude for the |
service he has rendered to this state and to the nation. The
great outpouring will have a splendid bearing when the Bould-
sr Dam measure comes up at the short session of Congress. It
was a challenge to the monopolies that would usurp the rights

IS SAVED in the State, let's all cool off and get down to business, making this a bigger and better season than ever.
FIRST OF ALL Fellow Fight Fans of the Darker Shade, let's get the chips off our shoulders! If you look for trouble, you get it. Go through the world broadcasting hate, grouches and color prejudice, and you will get more than your share in return.
Be men! Expect an equal break and demand it, but don't be so super sensitive as to expect the best of everything. Be reasonable! The campaign proved a lot of things, one of which was that our boxers had received more than an equal break the past year: twenty-four main events in all at the largest club. It's down on the books in black and white at the Olympic offices. A main event a week for 24 weeks and there are only 52 weeks in a year.
This is saying nothing of Pasadena, the main St., Ocean Park, Wilmington and the other smaller clubs that not only gave our beginners a chance but headed their bills with our main-eventers, numbers of times. We as a race do not expect to be pampered and petted any more than any other race. We deserve our share and eventually will get it. Even the one club here that never uses colored boys will some day see their mistake and do so.
COACH HOWARD JONES IS ALRIGHT
SPEAKING of discrimination, etc., Coach Howard Jones, the Imperator of the Trojan Gridiron warriors, is proving that he has been falsely accused of color prejudice. Jones, the manmaker, knows his pig-skin. If a man is good enough though he be a shade blacker than the Ace of Spades the famous mentor will use him. He gave Bert Richie his chance. Bert made good in his first trial. Then he was given the coveted job of full-back but the powerful six-footer did not show so well against their next opponents in spite of the great acclaim and credit given him for his first start by the white and black press. Undiscouraged in him Howard threw him with the reserve team against Arizona last week as right end, with the result that the boy wearing Brice Taylor's martell, intercepted a "sure shot" pass and galloped seventy yards for a touchdown, while the great Coliseum marred. He also caught another tricky pass from Kemo for the extra point on the final score of 78 to 7. Now there is a big possible chance of him being in the line-up against the Cougars, Saturday.
STAY BROWN-SKIN
There never was nor ever will be a better time to be brown than right now. So any one who labors under the handicapping belief that it is a misfortune to bear the imprint of the sun of mysterious Africa should wake up and look around. All over the world the Negro is beginning to get the breaks. We are doing in sixty-five years what it took some races. Hundreds of years to do; that is gain recognition for our efforts. The Negro has been proven the real 100% American. His folk songs are recognized more truly genuine American music than those of the Indian. Negro literature is the rage; Negro actors are in the cast of every Broadway venture and always make good; brown makes up and face powder flashed into a fad for the women; and practically every studio in Hollywood is either busily making or planning to make pictures with all colored casts.
One reason is that in stage or pictures the public craves variety. One color or one kind of personality gets monotonous. But the Negro race embraces every kind and class of personality under the sun and it reflects in his work. A born actor, a born singer his work is spontaneous, a thing of joy to him, as well as to his audience. His color shades from the deep rich black of the Nubian to the blue
NEXT TUESDAY'S BOOT A RE-MATCH
Blase fight fans are due a big thrill next Tuesday night at the Olympic Auditorium when Cowboy Jack Willis, that ridin', ripin', shootin' youngster from the open spaces meets to settle a little argument with the tall, square-chinned boy who got that way among the mountain crags and wildcats of Kentucky. This is Joe Anderson who prizes nothing greater than that line in the record book giving him a decision over the great Ace Hudkins.
In their last meeting here Willis and Anderson waged a merry battle with the cowpuncher, winning by virtue of a flashy finish in the tenth round. He floored Anderson twice in the final frame and won the shade but Anderson has always wanted him again as he firmly believes he can beat him.
HUERTA EVANS IN SEM1
Huerta Evans and Jackie Randell box the semi-windup. This should be a classy scrap, as it features two coming youngsters who have both headlined big spots. Anderson is not hurt any as to his standing by losing to Tuff Griffiths last week as he gave away a lot of weight.
Johnny Sampson is back in town with Young Nationalista in tow. The Filipino recently defeated Vic Burcine in the East. Nationalista is signed to box Kid Francis, European bantam-weight champion, at the Olympic November 7th.
The semi-windup on that evening will send Goldie Hess against Joe Mantillas. These boxes are two of the best of the younger crop and the winner will have a bright future. Mantillas was knocked out by Ignatio Fernandes last week, but the defeat won't set him back much.
San Francisco, Nov. 12.-Pete Meyers, San Francisco middleweight, and Young Harry Wills, San Diego colored battler, will meet in a 10-round fight here Friday night.
veined snow-white of the Norsemen and a gathering of them present a verigated color scheme that in restful to the eye and interesting to study. Ethiopia was the ancient cradle of civilization. There is nothing to be ashamed of in being a Negro. Stay brown-stein.

BETTER STRAIGHTEN UP FROM LAST CHRISTMAS
Every Christmas it is customary with boxers' managers, and others of the sporting world to send greetings to the many friends and fans who have seen them occupy the limelight with its attendant reward in hard cash during the past year. To do so they engage certain space in the publication they wish to use at so much per inch. Although all sporting sheets delight in telling the news of their activities at all other times, in their news columns yet this greeting is a special duty placed upon it by he who orders it. The trustful, believing sheet always expects the erstwhile patron will pay. When he does not it feels hurt and betrayed.
All this concerns last Christmas when as usual we issued a lot of Greetings for a lot of high and lower lights of the fight game! But we have not received the money for some of them yet.
It is now almost another Christmas so THOSE WHO DO NOT SETTLE SOON AND SUDDEN will have to stop telling the world about how fine square, and wonderful they are, for we are going to tell about how miserable and cheap they are to refuse to pay an honest debt made through a pretended GOOJ WILL message to the public the dollars come from.
There is yet time to avoid unpleasant notoriety. You guilty ones, all know who you are so KICK IN! This is your last chance. Names and pictures will be published in a veritable black-listed DISHONOR ROLL more authentic than any ever published in the annals of Unthankful Ingratitude.

L. A. Examiner Speaks of Bert Ritchie
"RITCHEY MAY GET U. S. C.
"END BERTH"
Local football fans yesterday were speculating on what part Bert Ritchey, Negro University of Southern California football star, will play in future engagements. Against Arizona last Saturday, Ritchey was tried out at right end and played such a phenomenal game that many believe the former fullback will be a fixture there.
"Ritchey is not expected to beat out Francis Tappaan or Lowry McCaslin for regular end jobs, but because of his ability to carry the ball on end-around plays he may fit in as a first string substitute. Ritchey can receive passes, tackle with decision and do just about everything that a football player needs to do. He did not look good at fullback earlier this season because he lacked drive.
"The Trojans play Washington State here Saturday. Local fans are wondering whether Ritchey will be given a chance at end and with it an opportunity to pack the ball on offense. It is pointed out that having Ritchey on the field actually gives the Trojans the equivalent of five backfield men in the lineup at once."

Paulino Made Biggest Money of Life in Godfrey Battle
Gaston Bastinchury, countryman of Paolino Uzcudun, entertained him like a king when he was here to fight George Godfrey. And Paolino drew the biggest purse of his career on percentage when Promoter Jackson Doyle wrote him a check for over $37,000.
Ever since Paolino returned to New York he has been in touch with California promoters. it has been reported that Tex Rickard had him tied up, but this is not true.
Paolina, so shrewd that he hires a staff of managers and is bound to none by contract, is too wiley to permit one promoter to sign him for more than one fight at a time.

State Boxing Commission Thanks Voters Who Saved Boxing
BABY GANS WIRES CONGRATULATIONS
Sacramento, Cal., Nov. 13.—Appreciation of the overwhelming vote against the 'blue law' measures was expressed in a statement issued here today by the State Athletic Commission.
"Passed by a scant majority of 20,414, the initiative-boxing law of 1924 was adopted as an experiment," said the statement released by Walter A. Yarwood, Secretary. "However, the decisive refusal of California voters to repeal the measure proves the superiority of the present law over the old 4-round statute."
"Defeat of both the anti-rodeo and boxing measures was a blow to reformers which will make California safe from 'blue law' for years to come. 'Thou shalt not' laws have proved unpopular in the eastern states and the vote this week in California indicates disapproval here."
The income from the five per cent tax on athletic shows will be more than enough to complete the work on the Veterans' Home at Yountville without additional taxation, according to the statement.
"California's ex-service men would have lost more than 19,000 a month bad the present law been repealed," the statement noted. "But the vote indicates that the intelligent citizens saw through the 'long-haired reformers' subtertue."
"Commissioners Traug, Woods and Hannon wish to thank the people of California for their approval of the Athletic Commission's work toward improving athletic conditions in California. Although the boxing game is now on the highest plane it has been in the history of the state, the Commission

constant pistol fire which only ceased
when the car killed and Taylor had been shot twice.
That, in substance, has been the
testimony of three witnesses who have
testified this week in the trial of the
sixteen defendants who were indicted
as the result of election crimes which
culminated in the murder of Octo-ius
Granady here last primary day.
The defendant identified in John
Armando the witness, who have
identified him are James Hauf, Thomas
Clark, and Euclid Lewis Taylor.
Granady's death was the dramatic high light in a primary election campaign which was notable because of the evidences of terrorism which it revealed. Prior to the slaying of Granady, the homes of United States Senator Deneen and of Judge John A. Granady's state's attorney, the Deneen ticket, bombed. Judge Swanson narrowly escaped with his life. "Diamond Joe" Esposito, an Italian lieutenant of Denen, had also been shot to death.
But underneath these major disturbances there was throughout the city what appeared to be the evidence of the ceaseless activity of criminal elements which desired to effect the outcome of the election. The Deneen fight was made to break up what was charged to be an existing alliance between the two factions accused was that led by Major William Hale Thompson, state's Attorney Robert Crowe, and City Collector Morris Eller. Each terrible incident brought this issue more and more to the fore and fissus fashion that the election brought about a setback for the Crowe-Thompson forces. Eller, committeeman of what was described as the "Bloody Twentieth" Ward, was being opposed by a colored lawyer, Octavius Granady, who was sponsored by the Deneen forces. Esposito, had been opposed by the Collector, Garvey, the prince had been "humped off" to use the gangster's language, and sporadic raids had been made on the meeting place of Granady and his organization.
As primary day came closer, the excitement grew more tense. The night before primary day, Granady and his men were warned. Their hall was raided again and the telephone wires cut. Eller, according to testimony given during the past week, met his boss, who was right behind them that they must win at any cost. He advised them not to drink too much, to go home, get up early and get on the jobs. Guns, he advised them, might be procured from the home of his son, Judge Emanuel Eller. The gangsters were assured that, with the state's attorney, a judge and his men were present, brought to bear, they need fear no punishment for anything they might do.
Thus primary day arrived with its consequent widespread disorders. Throughout the day, voters were picked up, slugged, beaten and kidnapped, many of them being confined in a sort of prison. The Eller forces are said to have taken other men from polling place to polling place, paying them so much to vote as many as fifteen times. Some of these men were beaten.
It was five o'clock in the day before Granady was slain. His murder was the climax in a day of unheard-of lawlessness. At about five o'clock, the car in which Granady and his friends were riding came almost face to face with the gangsters who, it had been heard, were looking for Granady. Without warning, the gangsters began to fire. Euclid Lewis Taylor, driving the Granady car, stepped on the gas, with the gangster car in pursuit, shots being fired all the while. For more than a mile, they raced through the streets until Taylor was struck in the back of the car. He thrown on the brake, and stopped his car. He Granady. Huff, and Clark all sought to escape. Granady was shot as soon as he had alighted. Taylor was struck in the leg again, but managed to climb over a fence and find shelter with Clark. While on the fence, he was struck again with slugs from a shotgun.
There were four men in the gangster car, but so far only Armono has been named. As the trial proceeded this week in its terrible exposure, one of the most important state witnesses, a white woman, was prevented from testifying by the kidnapping of her brother. It is believed that she is prepared to name the other men in the car. She had been taken and concealed by the state which hoped to use a surprise witness. Failing find her, she and her friends of the gangsters took her brother to hold as long as she keeps her mouth shut, or to slay if she talks.
This woman was supposed to have gone on the stand Thursday at two o'clock, but the incident involving her brother threw her into hysterics and she was unable to proceed. The trial was temporarily halted by Judge John M. O'Connor. David Stansbury, chief of the prosecutors, demanded
that the bonds of the defendants be forfeited and that they be placed in jail until the kidnapped boy was returned, but the count refused to take such action.
Each day as the trial progresses, the defense seeks to weaken the state testimony by showing that it is either forced or paid for. The chief object of attack in this procedure is Sheridan A. Brusseaux, head of a coarced detective agency, who was embezzled and forced to conduct the investigation of the primary day disorders. Observers expect Brusseaux to be put on the stand before the trial is over.
Both Morris Eller and his son, Judge Emmanuel Eller, have been indicted in connection with the same primary day disorders, but they sought and obtained a change of venue, which will result in their trial later. Others included among those touched by the special grand jury which has returned these injections are Oscar DePriest, Republican candidate for congress from the first district, and Daniel M. Jackson, state commerce commissioner. It is not known when their trials will come up.
Most of our Legislators and Would-be Legislators Seem Afraid of 14th Amendment to Constitution
(By The Associated Negro Press)
CHICAGO, HLL. Nov7- Little or no hope for action in congress to compel the reinforcement of the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment to the constitution is to be found in the replies to more than nine hundred telegrams on this subject sent by the Chicago Tribune to members of the senate and to the house of representatives and to candidates for membership in these two bodies.
Only sixty-four members of the present congress, containing more than five hundred members in senate and house, replied to the telegram of the Tribune, which was as follows:
"Do you hold that all provisions of the Constitution should be impartially enforced? If so, will you, if elected introduce or vote for a bill to carry into effect the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment?"
Enforcement of the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment would compete the south to give the Negro the vote or to submit to having its representation in congress reduced.
A total of 145 replies were received to the 900 telegrams dispatched by The Tribune. Of these, 14 were from present senators and 50 from present representatives, a total of 64. Of 81 from new candidates four were from senatorial nominees and 77 from house nominees.
Present senators lined up as follows For impartial enforcement of all provisions of the constitution 9; against 3; noncommittal, 1.
Present representatives: For, 42; against 8.
New candidates for the senate: For 3; noncommittal, 1.
New candidates for the house: For 70; against, 3; noncommittal, 4.
Memebre and candidates from the Democratic south were a practical unit, either against proper enforcement or in their failure to reply to the telegram.
Only one member, La Guardia of New York, indicated any willingness to put a fight for such legislation.
Leaders in the fight for the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment were conspicuous by their silence in respect to the Fourteenth. Senator William E. Borah, Republican of Idaho one of the most active drys in the country, pleaded that he needed time to study the Fourteenth Amendment, in spite of the fact that he has hitherto expressed himself unfavorably in regard to Negro enfranchisement.
Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 13—in keeping with the progressive program being prosecuted here by President Jones of Fisk University, two practice pipe organs were installed here Wednesday by R. J. Lilley of the M. P. Moller organ concert at the University, they offer students a greater opportunity to become more proficient in this phase of music.
The two organs, which have been installed in the music school annex, are of modern electric action, hoth on one blower with two manuals and pedals. They cost $3,500 and were made possible by donations from donors scattered over the country.
Oil Royalties To Willis-Vista Acres Tract Purchasers
The Climax Realty Company, of 2701 South Central Avenue, selling agents for Willis-Vista Acres Tracts, announce that each purchaser of an Acre or Half-Acre Tract, will share in the Land Owners Royalty of all Oil and Gas produced from 180 acres of the land.
Under this arrangement, the production of Oil and Gas on all or any part of this 160 acres will be shared by each and every Tract Owner, and all of the Oil and Gas retained by the Sellers goes to Willis-Vista Acres Tract Purchasers.
Mr. E. J. Porter, or the Climax Realty Company, in commenting on the sale of this land said:
"I consider this offering of the Willis Petroleum Company a wonderful opportunity for our people, for the heart of the heart on active Oil Drilling Operations, the Oil is being produced at shallow depth on adjoining land, active DEEP DRILLING is being carried on by men connected with California's Leading Companies."
POINT, said Mr. Porter, "we never have had such an offering, but in addition, much of the land is suitable for the growing of all kinds of fruit and for the raising of Poultry and Rabbit. I advise all prospective purchasers to BUY NOW, for the early purchasers have the first selections at the Pre-Opening sale."
The weekly meetings of the Pyramid Co-operative Association are still being held every Thursday night at Tabernacle Baptist Church, Hemlock street near 12th, and members are being added every week.
From the interest that the people are showing in the meetings of the Pyramid it is evident that they are beginning to realize that economic cooperation is the only solution to the race problem. The people now see that food, clothing, and shatter are fundamental things that are a matter of personal and vital interest to every individual, and that the men and women who are able to provide themselves with these fundamental things not only gain self-respect and the respect of others, but they help govern the world. When men and women are co-rulers of their respective governments, they lose longer problems and subjected to the harsh and permanent of the dominating group. Negroes will never be co-rulers of the American government until they learn the universal truth that an intelligent and well-banded group in economic activities guides the destinies of far greater masses.
The speaker emphasized the fact that since Negroes are always considered last in every civil activity, and since politically they are a nonnacity and socially they are ostracised, that steps be at once taken to correct their civil condition by taking steps to correct their economic condition. This, they explained, can be done by joining the movement represented by the Pyramid Co-operative Association, a movement that has as its object the capturing of the trade of the Negro, by the Negro, for the Negro.
The speakers further admonished the people that if they wish to be considered on a plane of equality with other races they must learn to guard their money power, contribute to their own social welfare, and make provision for the employment of the masses. In these days of large combines Negroes can accomplish these things, the speakers explained, through a system that intelligently directs the masses in a proper and legitimate control of their own necessities. The only organization among African Americans seeks to lift the masses by the control of the living power of the people is the Pyramid Cooperative Association, a California Institution, it invites your presence at the weekly meetings, it seeks and welcomes your membership.

Herbert Hoover, President; Colored America and the Outlook in the New Political World of "Do It Now!"
BY: NAHUM DANIEL BRASHER
(BY: A. N. P.)
Chicago, Nov. 14—The tumult and the shouting are over. Herbert Hoover will be the next President. The "I told you so," association is holding daily sessions, and the "Alibi Club" is giving cut statements of "if" and "however."
Various newspapers, daily and otherwise, and various wiseacres, local, and national, if not always so wise, are describing the part Colored America played in the national game, and what position will be taken, or forced in the coming days. Some have said this was the first year Democrats ever "went after the Negro vote." The record, of course, belles this. The Democrat have always gone "after the Negro vote." North, in all national states, once enfranchised, and has always had a goodly number. Grover Cleveland made outstanding appointments, and has zealous adherents. Bishop Waters, the Trotter earnestly supported Woodrow Wilson in his first election, only to be humiliated by Wilson's ignoble double crossing after getting in the White House. Four years ago the racial Democratic wing was directly in national headquarters, instead of being camouflaged in outside locations with more or less dabious names. Probably 1925 furnished the largest number of Colored voters who protested against Republican sins of omission, voting for Al Smith. The proportion in New York and St. Louis, was not anything like many anticipated, and some seem yet to think better than 70 per cent of Chicago Negroes, voted for Hoover.
NEW LEADERSHIP IN THE SOUTH
There will be new leadership in the South, and this will probably be white, for the most part. But this is no less true in the North, where the race, in recent years, has made its largest political advancement. It is true in New York, Philadelphia, Chicago, Kansas City, and other locations where the largest advancement has made. While there are racial leaders in the last analysis, whites control party administration. It is not believed that the administration will countenance procedure in the South or North that completely Minnesota Colored Americans. It and when Colored America looks to the larger ideals of national welfare and progress rather than purely individual advancement, more consideration will be given by the powers, and more will be merited. Development of a program of real statesmanship will place Colored America in a position in every section of the nation to receive more favorable consideration on the problems of the most difficult concern. On the other hand, minority groups of Democrats, North and South, may be expected, even in a larger way, to be dreadte in opposition to regain position. That is ever the story of politics, from the beginning.
DePRIEST IN CONGRESS
Oscar D Priest, of Chicago, elected to Congress to succeed the late Martin B. Madden, will be seated, despite the many tricks that will be resorted to, endeavoring to keep him out. He will occupy an unique position and will be in a position to serve the entire race in a much needed way. D Priest thrives best on opposition. A native of Alabama, who came to Chicago and became a house decorator and then a real estate man, who got into politics, he knows the "hus and outs" of American life for better or for worse. He is shrewd, aggressive and sometimes domineering, but he can get results, and that's the big item of the coming days. His election will mean that other districts must follow the Chicago lead and name men to Congress.
THERE IS A NEW DAY AT
HAND
By all the signs of the times, there is a real new day at hand. New face, and some old, are in the picture. The business forces of America are determined to make the next four years prosperous in business. This means more and better employment, and happier homes. President-elect Hoover, in all of his addresses persisted in enunciating the fact that America is to be measured, in the last analysis, not by the 10,000,000 people who inhabit it but by the 23,000,000 homes of families that make the glory of the nation. Colored America, must look to this larger vision of economic progress, and with it will come not only political opportunity but political preferment. Look to advancement in business, educational, moral force, and all of it with a spirit of sincere co-operation, within and without the race, and the political future will follow satisfactorily as a matter of course. Genuine progress in any field precludes genuine sincerity of purpose.

Jewels of the Great Divine,
The sky tonight is thine—
And eye, you make it wholly thine.
For thou art numerous in array
Twinkling and sparkling in gorgeous display
Like lights of great cities far, far away.
Symbols thou art of age and thought;
From the men of age and sought,
The riddle of all things time $e$ has wrought
Thou art the thousand eyes of night;
What wonders have passed before
thy sight—
If told—what hand could that
great record write.
On distant inspirers of the soul;
What mystic powers do you hold
That makes men seek thy wisdom's fold.
The wise men of the past have said,
You guide the paths we all must
tread;
From birth—through life—to
death's low bed.
The greatness of thy setting;
Oh jewels is itself inspiring—
Dark, vast—an abyss never end-
My sight has traveled a billion miles,
To catch the glimmer of your smiles
—To reach thy numerous shores—
celestial isles.

That a boy who has been steadily though quietly proving he has the goods will some day be a dangerous black menace in the welter division is a foregone conclusion according to the coast city's daffies who publish favorable reports of all Sammy Jackson's victories at Ocean Park. The following is taken from the Santa Monica Outlook:
"SAMMY JACKSON MAY GET SHOT AT ADAMS
"Sammy Jackson, Sant Monica welterweight who has been hailed as a second Joe Gans, is in line for a shot at Johnny Adams. Pacific coast welter champ, and the match will probably be staged at a metropolitan club in the near future, if it is announced."

SPORTS They Claim Tex Rickard is Color Prejudiced But Listen to This!
New York, Nov. 15.—With Jimmy McLarnain's decision to step out of the lightweight division, the ten round match between Baby Joe Gans, the "New Master," and Joe Glick, of Brooklyn, which tops the show at Madison Square, Garden tonight sets the question of Gans' meeting Lightweight Champion Sammy Gans. The title of the tournament matchmaker for Tex Rickard, premier pugilistic promoter, expects to experience little trouble in getting Eddie Kane, mentor of the "Rockford Shlek" to sign to meet Gans, the former colored Church Deacon from Sunny California.
Not in years has a fighter wore such a warm place in the hearts of Gans in this city as has Larney Lichtenstein's classy colored lightweight.
Tex Richard, most successful entrepreneur of them all, who has seen them come and go for many years, is noted for his conservatism. Yet Tedge, as his friends call him, doesn't hesitate to say that Baby Joe looms as the greatest 135 pounder since the halcyon days of Joe Gans of Baltimore. "I have watched Larry's battler in all of his fights since he first came to New York and sincerely believe that he is the best all-around fighter I have lamped in many a years. Gans has something Yew of the present day fighters possess." He knows how to feint an opponent into a false lead almost as often as he please. I saw him give away as much as ten pounds in some of his battles and it is my opinion that if he cared to, he could "call his shots." I mean that he could almost name. "Round the house," he would have a habit of making his opponent look good when he cared, but if a fellow got too fresh, well, it was curtains for him."
"Gans' knockout of Andy Divodi in the Garden was a masterful performance. He allowed Divodi to set the pace for the first five rounds and then he took the fool, but Gans showed him a few tricks of the trade. Gans belted him out neatly. I think Baby Joe is the next lightweight champion of the world now that Jimmy McLearn is out of the division," said Rickard.

Forgetting all animosities, marching shoulder to shoulder, let us ALL work for a greater nation; A BETTER AMERICA, A GRANDER UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. An America which in precept and example gives a free and untrammelled opportunity an equality of citizenship to all.
Even though the breaking up of the political solidarity of the South should accomplish nothing more than an independence in national politics, it will have done much. It has served to bring before the people real issues. The extraneous issues which have through sentiment, and appeals to the passions, beclouded the debatable problems of government will be removed. If some of the Colored leaders will take another tact and dwell less up the wrongs, strive more to right them and instead of appealing, indirectly, to the passions build up a healthy feeling of mutual trust, we can hope for the future, and see in this political trend a harbinger of better thought.

This is Mr. Silas Masters, manager of the Olympic Auditorium and one of the most tax-saving conscientious, systematic generals connected with the promotion industry. Mr. Masters worked constantly and directly from the very beginning of the '70s. Wanted to be equally gave in to a bad cold that confined him to his room the last two weeks before election. Even then he worked by telephone from his bed.
Mr. Masters has always favored mixed bouts and take a special interest in colored people and their efforts to succeed. He says mixed bouts always draw best and never cause race friction, but promises a number of good ones in the future whenever possible.
