Republican Party In The South Must Change Its Color, Says New President
WILL PURGE G G P IN SOUTH
Washington, March 26. (Exclusive)
- The mining engineer in the White
House touched off a charge of political dynamite today that shook the present Republican organization in the Southern States to its foundations.
Paving the way for the upbuilding of a white Republican party in the South, Mr. Hoover repudiated on the ground of irresponsibility and corruption in Mississippi, Georgia and South Carolina and demanded their replacement by Republican leaders possessing integrity and the confidence of their communities.
In the case of Texas, Alabama, Florida and other states, the President disclosed that the existing Republican leadership, which has fallen into repute, is to be compelled to divide authority with advisory committees acceptable to the administration.
The president has placed blunt kicks on the Republican leadership in Virginia and North Carolina and in Kentucky and other border states.
This leadership, he said, "has took since built up vigorous party organization which assures Republican representation in Congress from those states."
Startles Old Guard
3 Series
It was a long-held blast but nevertheless long-heeded to Old Guard Republicans. The utterances of the President, confirmed dispatches of last October reporting the intention of Mr. Hoover to throw overboard the corrupt Negro Republican organization in its South and to appoint a Federal office only white men of high standing in their communities.
The President is believed to entertain hopes of attracting into the Republican party permanently a large proportion of the southern Democrats who voted for in order to keep Al Smith out of the White House. It is possible that some of these outstanding "Hoovercats" will be placed on the advisory committee to which it is to be deputed the redemption of the Republican party in the South.
Mr. Hoover's repudiation of Republican leaders in the South is based on the results of the investigation of the Brookhart committee of the Senate into the sale of Federal appointments and other political irregularities in that region. The President has had several conferences recently with Senator Brookhart on this matter.
Repudiates Tolbert.
One of the leaders whose replacement Mr. Hoover demanded - is Joe Tob尔特 of South Carolina, senior member of the Republican National Committee in length or service. Tob尔特 is a white man but his organization comprises mainly Negroes. He was for Lowden of Kansas City. Tob尔特 is under fire in the Senate investigation. Another Republican National Committeeman, whose political head Mr. Hoover demands is Perry Howard, of Mississippi, a Negro. He was acquired several months ago after the committee said it but now is on trial under a similar indictment. The National Committeewoman of Mississippi, Mary C. Booze, also is colored. Howard flirted with Lowden but finally was compelled to sign up for Hoover at Kansas City.
In Georgia the position of National Committeeman is vacant as the result of a contest of the election of Ben Davis, a Negro. In Georgia, as in Mississippi, the Hoover campaign was taken out of the hands of the Negro leadership and committed to white men who are now to be recognized as the de facto Republican leaders in these states. Mrs. George S. Williams the Georgia National Committeewoman is colored.
Hoover's Statement.
The President's policy was expressed in this statement at today's press conference:
"It has been the aspiration of Republican presidents over many years to build up a sound Republican party organization in the Southern States of such character as would commend it to the citizens of those States.
"This aspiration has a great out of-
NEXT HARMON AWARD ENTRIES BEGIN IN SEPT.
(By: A. N. P.)
New York, Mar. 25 — The next group of Harmon Awards will be open for the entry of candidates September 3, 1929, according to announcement by the Federal Council of Churches which has sponsored the annual prizes through its Commission on Church and Race Relations. This year a gold medal and $1,000 will be available for the man or woman, black or white, who does the most outstanding work in improving race relations.
no narrow sense of partisanship but from conviction shared in equally by the leaders of all parties that the basis of sound government must rest upon strong two party representation and organization; that the voice of all States in the councils of the government can be assured by no other means; that the welfare of the nation at large requires the breaking down or sectionalism in politics; that the public service can be assured only by responsible organization.
Perverse. It has been the belief of these leaders whose views I share, that the building up of such organizations must in every conception of our foundations of local self-government evolve from those States themselves.
Names States
"Republican leadership in the border States and in Virginia and North Carolina long since has built up vigorous party organization, in which assures Republican representation in the Congress from those States.
"In other States, including Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas and Florida, the Republican leadership has in recent times shown increasing strength add now is rendering able service in maintaining wholesome organization under whose advice the appointments to public office have improved steadily and commended the States with increased confidence in the party. I approve and welcome the movement of the leaders of Texas, Alabama, Florida and other States to broaden the basis of the party organization by the establishment of advisory committees of the highest type of citizenship to deal with administrative questions and who also will co-operate with Independent Democrats. This movement, springing as it does within the States themselves, insures its strength, permanence and constant improvement in public service, in recommendations for Federal offices, particularly in some parts of the States of South Carolina, Georgia and Mississippi, under which some of the Federal departments, mainly the postoffice, were mised in appointments, oblivious renders it impossible for the old organization in these States to command the confidence of the administration, although many members of these organizations are not subject to criticism.
Flays Conditions.
"Such conditions are intolerable to public service, are repugnant to the ideals and purposes of the Republican party, are unjust to the people of the South and must be ended. The duty of reorganization so as to correct these conditions rests with the people of those States and all effort to that end will receive the hearty co-operation of the administration. If these three States are unable to initiate such organization through the leadership of men who will command confidence and protect the public service, the different Federal will be compelled to adopt other methods to obtain advice as to the selection of Federal employees."
LA JOVIAL CLUB
The last meeting of the La Jovial Club was held at the home of Mrs. Mildred Moore. The girls are very glad to know that Mrs. Estelle Dickerson is to be a new member. One of the most important events on the social calendar for the season is the Spring Dance, which will take place April 17th. The meeting will be held at the home or Mrs. Gladys Wilson; Mrs. THERESA HOWARD, Press.
GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS STEWARD
(For The Associated Negro Press)
As the number of books about Negro groves, hope increases that soon or late will appear a novel plumbing so thoroughly the depths of Negro life that it will possess that universality which is the distinguishing mark of all great stories. Thus far books about Negroes have lacked that quality. Instead they have been concerned with some bizarre phase of Negro life, or some particular stratum of his social existence, usually with exaggerated emotional experiences not even common to all Negroes to say nothing of humanity in general. In consequence there has been a new wash of scummy tales about Harleen the slave, the woman that that place is oversupplied with dives, pimps and pervers. There have also been stories about the crudities and obscenities of the southern painting and about the squail, buffoonery and brute antics of the inhabitants or the scabby Negro districts of sunny towns in Dixie. And there have been hearty narratives, dealing with the color complex-narratives about a near-wear heroine beautiful and distract, harrowed by association with her darker fellows and the indignities they suffer, marrying white only to make a disgusted return to her own people, or narratives about a jet black heroine, graceful, accomplished and charming, escaping the tuants of family and friends and the social ostracism of the whole race by a plunge into sexual mud, the murder of a tempted a slave, the Nego life finally turns into special pleading, becoming mainly propaganda together as a story by the thread of lakewarm romance running the length of documentary findings on lynchings, Jim Crowism, disfranchisement etc.
"This Side of Jordan" is just another book about an exceptional phase of Negro life. Once more we are entertained by a saucy recital of the mating proclivities of plantation Negroes. Promiscuity this time is given an added pliquancy. Syphilis introduced into the colony by an unspected white man climaxes a series of furious love-matches. Not nearly so much is told regarding the actual hum drum and drudgery or, the every day life on the plantation hand as is set down about his sex life. True there is a great deal about superstition, witchcraft, and religious hocus pocus, but all of it swings around the man-woman relationship.
There can be no doubt that Roark Bradford writes well. Certain scenes and incidents he describes—the ceremonial, which accompanies the spring plowing, the "good time" when crops are laid by, the emotional flood at the church meeting, the butting scrapes—are all delightful. On the crest of the current faddism which appropriates everything about the Negro the book will probably float into a wide sale. But some of its readers may have trouble with a psychology which permits the one educated Negro of the story, after enlightenment at Tuskegee and sophistication at Tuskegee, to tell the story, half-repulsive, hostility of his former plantation associates, let alone to pick up as wife so untamed so uncoot, so ignorant, so unbeautiful, and above all so black a creature as the sign-seeking, herb-gathering granddaughter or the plantation's arch witch. Others, however, will think that in "This Side of Jordan" they have another document confirming the dictum that Negroes are a simple, childlike—and "oh, so primitive," people.
LEAVES FOR ARIZONA
Mr. and Mrs. Henry McCormick of the west side, accompanied by Mrs. Mae Carpentier, wife of the affable manager of the Lincoln Theatre, left this week for Phoenix, Arizona, where Mrs. Carpentier will be visiting. Mrs. Carpentier's only regret, on leaving the city at this time, was leaving her favorite pet dog.

Northwestern University Accepts Fund for "Caucasians Only"
Chicago, Ill., Mar. 25.—F. C. Austin, capitals of this city, who made a great fortune by inventing modern road-making machinery recently gave to Northwestern University here the F. C. Austin fund to be used exclusively for scholarships. One of the provisions which christian Mr. Austin made in providing this Methodist institution with his fund was that it be used "for male persons of the Caucasian race." Northwestern accepted the fund, and President Walter Dill Scott praised Mr. Austin.
The large and spacious Hall at 15th and Main was utilized this year for the monster Fashion Show, staged annually by the Phys-Art-Lit-Mor Club. The hall was beautifully decorated and well filled with elegantly attired people. It appeared that this year's presentation eclipsed any previous affair in majestic splendor of the beautiful orations. The various style merchants who entered mannikens and models, have every reason to be more than amused by the enthusiastic interest of the spectators. The styles for the elderly women and for plump ladies were received with thunderous applause. Children's styles also seemed to catch the approval of the crowd. Although the styles previewed by the club were the latest creations it appeared that some or the quite wealthy people in attendance there came out for the purpose of out-shining the models. They certainly finished a close second. Some of the styles that seemed to awe the spectators were previewed by: Clara C. Hubert, a beautiful creation worn by Mrs. E. N. Wright; the "Futuristic Miss" by Marion Hendricks; by Emma's Exclusive Shoppe, afternoon frock worn by Mrs. Jennie V. Bigbee and tiny Betty Mae Garrison, a Beautiful Wilson, as the Baby Singer Bld., really captured the hearts of the crowd with her beautiful voice. The dance music was provided by Leon Rene's. Synopicons. Frank White served as Master of Ceremonies.
Much credit for the success of the affair is given Mrs. Rebecca Hill, Mrs. Onnette Hudson, Mrs. Alice Patton and others.

CAFE OWNER SHOOTS AND KILLS MAN
On Sunday evening about 7 P. M., Mr. S, D. Adams, proprietor of the Maybelle Cafe, 2337 Central, shot and killed Lawrence Broux.
Mr. Adams was exonerated of the killing, as Mr. Broux came into the cafe in a very quarrelsome mood, and when Mr. Adams spoke to him, he
Paul Williams Urged As Member of National Commission For Negro Memorial
The friends of Paul Williams, fortamed architect will present his name as a member of the Commission which is to be appointed by the President in response to a joint resolution by the U. S. Senate and House of Representatives to study out and devise plans for a National Memorial for the Colored people.
They point out the fact that his record and accomplishments make him one of America's outstanding members in his profession and therefore is entitled to the highest consideration upon his merits.
Mr. Williams was a member of the City/ Planning Commission for four years; architect for Senator F. P. Flint, three years; built the Civic Center Building of Monrovia, Hollywood V. M. C. A, 28th St. Y. M. C. A, and at this time has commission to superintend building edifices costing more than a half million dollars.
Denver To Survey Negro Industrially
(By: A. N. P.)
Denver, Colo. Mar. 25.—A survey of the economic and industrial conditions affecting the Negroes of Denver will begin April 16 under the direction of the National Urban League. Ira DeA. Reid of the national staff will make the survey which has been made possible by the Denver Inter-Racial Commission, the Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A. The Denver Negro has been made the country and much well kept property is held by the group here. A pamphlet will be issued so that the country at large may see something of Denver's progress and to serve as a basis for future work of the Inter-Racial Commission.
How Rosenwald Schools Have Aided North Carolina
Raleigh N. C., Mar. 25—This state, one of the most progressive in the South, has taken advantage of outside agencies to provide something like adequate schooling for its colored children, but has made the most of such help. Figures just issues on the work or the Rosenwald Fund in North Carolina are revelatory of a fine statewide interest and response on the part of both colored and white people.
North Carolina's school population is 300,141 of which 230,801 are rural, 73,616 are city, 253,096 children are enrolled, leaving better than 51,000 who do not attend school.
728 Rosenwald buildings containing 2,150 classroms which accommodate 96,750 pupils have been built. The wald Fund contributed $602,686.00. Colored people have given $623,283, and white people $74,690. The public school system has contributed $2,906.08.
drew a knife, stabbing Adams in the shoulder, and then attempted to run. Adams drew his gun and fired at Bronx twice, he turned to run and dropped dead in front of the store.
LATE SUNDAY afternoon we were returning from two highly illuminating religious services, one at the Friendship Haptist Church at Pasadena, and one at 33rd aid Central, when upon hearing 24th and Central we ran into a seething human mob. Seeing that the "El" would have difficulty plowing its way through the mass of humanity, my companion, who was driving, suggested that I get out and form my way toward the front of the street, and the seeming centre of the attraction and see what was happening.
The crowd was peeping in at the closed, door of a little Cafe on the corner into which the officers were kind enough to let me come and to give me information to the end that a man who had attacked the cafe keeper with a knife had been slain.
I was glad that the dead man had been removed, and I was spared that grusome sight.
WHILE THE NEWS of the tragedy spread like wild fire there seemed to be no secession of Jazz Music to the accompaniment of loud talking. No hush that comes with death.
WE ARE CF the opinion that the 18th Amendment is not being enforced to the fullest extent in our fair city of Angeles. And that much of the crime committed is hatched in drink-crazed minds of men and women, victims of those who are permitted by the flexibility of the law to make merchandise in human beings.
"WE SEEK too far for things close by—in our club, fraternal and rejuvenious lives we often reach far out to rescue and give succor to some cause or individual that does not need our attention as seriously as our next door neighbor.
What could be of greater importance to a community than the making of a cleaner and healthier moral atmosphere in which our youth live, grow and wax into men and womanhood?
SINCE THE EASTSIDE is largely populated by us should we not take in its reputation, as not only one of the city's most beautiful and business-like sections, but likewise one of the most orderly.
PRESIDENT HOOVER wields the ax and Negroes are hit hardest.
WE ARE copying an article which appears in another column of this paper from Wednesday's issue of the Los Angeles Times. To say the least this dose was hard to digest, however we managed by skipping in pencil to see it down, after which we struggled to our mental feet with this question—Are there no good ones among them? Our new President in his new economic house-cleaning program, threw aside the historic yacht Mayflower, rid the White House stables of its entourage, and is threatening to build an entirely WHITE Republican Party for the South on the ground that the Negroes occupying places in the Republican Band Wagon are all crooks.
IN POLITICS the Negro is but a child and the fruit of his environment. If those who hold exalted positions in the Republican Party are crooks they are just what their white bosses have made them.
WE ARE wondering if the Negro will seek status quo by leaving or will he continue to wait until he is bodily thrown out.
IN THE CAMPAIGN which is still fresh in our memory some of these same Negroes who are about to be heaved overboard cried loudly the Republican Party is the Ship and all else the sea—Methinks I see them swimming around in the sea at this time trying to find a Political Straw to hang onto.
THE REAL SERIOUS side of this situation is this: the Negro in his present status of education and culture must see something dearer to his fame than the everlasting Political dollar.
HE SHOULD work out his own economic programs realizing always (Turn in Pages Six)

The fighting high school kid from Santa Monica pulled a fast one when Alfonso Martinez straight rounds at Willingham back Wednesday night.
Jackson really pat one over on the smart egg. He even faced the writer when he beat the Mountain Lion. Lee was one of his favorite characters, and he kills on his experience.
As many of the writers up in the city have said Sammy is one of the coming boys and it he sticks to the game in the right way he should pull down lots of shekels and honor, before it is time for him to lay aside the gloves.
YOUNG SAM LANGFORD
If there ever was a clown, Sam is the clown, Langford clumsy to be a fighter, he has yet to show that ability down here in San Bernardino.
Sam is one of the cleverest boys in the game today and he could be a tomtother if he wanted to, but evidently he does not care for the big time, the money and fame that goes with it.
Langford fought Clarence Duvan at San Bernardino and met, so his usual fight of clowing, instead of using his skill to the best advantage, Sam goes in the ring to make a monkey out of the boy he is fighting and one of himself also.

Black Jack was good enough to beat the kniphof of the weight but would not get enough stuff to take the clever Jewish kid.
That takes another disky boy out of the running for a crown, and leaves us with a last hope that the little brown boy from Panama, Santiago, will be the next to receive the trophy over Todd Morgan on Aprif the second.
Fields took Gans out the running some few weeks back and now he takes Thomson with the crown at stake, take on Sammy Jackson, may-be you will be the next black boy to worry the leaders in the welter weight division.
The Spring Fashion Show has been arranged as one of the outstanding features of "Potash and Permister," famous comedy hit which the colored Lafayette Playground are to present for one week starting April 1st. Under the supervision of Ralph W. Porter, hats, wraps and gowns from the shops of twenty-four leading modifiers of Los Angeles will be on display as every performance throughout the coming week, and Lincoln audiences will be treated to a truly real array of new Spring models.
For the past several weeks, Los Angeles modistes have worked day and night completing special creations for the Lincoln Fashion Show. The settings of "Fomish and Permutter," an exhibition of attraction, are such that an exhibition of kind fits in perfectly with the garments the play which relates the "trade" and to two Jewish partners in the clothing business.
"Abe" Porsach and "Marcus Perlmutter are well known to local audiences, and "Potash and Perlmutter" is an evening of real entertainment in itself, even without the added trent of a gorgeous style exhibit. Virtually quarrelsome but seconded by these two quarrelsome—but seconded by partners whose only apparent aim in life is to violently disagree with each other.
Edward Thompson and Charles Olden have two principal roles. Those who saw the work of this pair in "Queen High," the musical comedy in which they also appeared as two business partners, will realize what a treat is in store for them in "Potash and Perlmutter." Evelyn Preer has been assigned the role of "Ruth Goldman," designer for the firm, and Lawrence Criner will be seen as the head buyer.
Other important roles will be handled by Monte Hawley, Sidney Kirkratrick, Laura Bowman, Babe Townsend, Cleo Desmond, Malcolm Patton and Arthur Ray.
Manager Elsworth of the Tivoli Theatre follows the trend of the times in bringing the Morietone to the Avenue, Tuesday, April 9th. This is one of the most largely patronized houses on the East side and scores of colored patrons attend nightly. "The Terror," "The Wolf of Wall Street," and other sound features will be heard in course of time. Mr. Elsworth is every live and enthralling being the first theatre manager here to use the aeroplane as an advertising medium, as he did with "The Bat."
ETHEL WATERS IN OMAHA
Ethel Waters played. Omaha to packed houses the past week after finishing three weeks in Warner's new film, "On with the Show." Ethel has a wonderful song in this picture entitled "Am I Blue?"
Those beautiful moonlight (moonshine) evenings. Makes one want to scream, Spring is here! Oh well, a prince of headwaters, Owen Levy. If you don't belittle it, go some nite to the Apex Club, and see how he takes care of you. He is the best since Gaugle Henderson.

However, we hope she will make the grade and come out on top. Atta girl, Cleo!
NORVELLE REESE—stands head and shoulders, above present crop of male entertainers. Outside of the tap dancers there hasn't been anything to holder about in the male line. Chorus girls are now executing the most exacting tap steps, and as a consequence, they are stealing the male fappers thunder. Singers of note are few. Outstanding talents are less. Norvelle Reese, is one entertainer that really sing. He clicks at every number. His method of rendering the Hinas in a sweet tenor voice, has the town on edge. A "Kentucky Club ta vorite."
GEORGE DEWEY WASHINGTON — blinds aden to Los Angeles, bound for New York and Europe. Farewell guest to the Kentucky Club last Sunday nite. Gives two of his best numbers — Choe and 'Sonny Boy' — crowds go wild over it. Claude Collins, and band, sing and play "Auld Lange Syne." So long, George, Bon Voyage.
B. H. JOHNSON — to stage a jam-up East Monday ball at Washington and Central. This well-known dance promoter, has of late, through his series or orderly dances made the Elks Hall ornamental dance, of deception and popularity. Now this Easter Monday Dance promises to eclipse anything thus far attempted.
KID NORTH — owner of racing stables, praises Kentucky Club. Among club. He is sending some very valuable pictures of the horses that comprised the arm stable of North to the club.
The Norths returned immediately to those present at the new Kentucky Club premier opening were the Mr.

"Blue Coats" and "Red Caps" Battle
(By: A. N. P.)
New York, Mar. 27—Four detectives with drawn guns battled fifty Red Caps in the Grand Central Station here Thursday. The plot of flying fights that began when the detectives raided the locker room, in which the light took place, frightened passengers in the main waiting room. The detectives acting on a tip declared that the locker room of the porters and red caps was the clearing house for a big number system. Out of town porters would bring their number slips and collections to the Grand Central terminal where red caps also played.
Until the detectives pointed their guns at the men, they were having a hard time of it, the porters furiously attacking the raiders. Detectives James Carberry, Charles Ward, Geo. Creede and James O'Neill descended on the focker room after receiving information that upwards of $4,000 a day was being played there on the numbers.
As they entered the room, the police saw a heap of policy tickets and stacks of coin on the table. Business was going on at a big rate.
A new Business Men's Gym Club will be organized Tuesday April 2nd at 12:30 P.M.

WILL WONDERS NEVER CEASE?
The Day of Miracles is not past
Here we find the Pullman Company which has consistently resisted any and every effort of its employee to get more wages, and which has repeatedly refused a conference for that effect, out of the clear sky now is freely permitting, even violently hurting its employees to vote for such a conference. As a matter of fact go carnet and solicitous is the Pullman Company that the men get more wages that in some districts it is even threatening to penalize the men if they do not vote for this conference.
When our attention was called to this wonderful miracle, being twen-
them country mined, we would not accept it as face value but began an investigation. Upon intercepting George G. Grant his mines, weaver. Mr. Gain informs us that this event by the Railroad Company is merely a little test of the company to attempt to wade or also down the Mississippi River. Mr. Gain informs that, since obtaining a charter from the American Federation of Labor settlement among the men for the Brotherhood has secured the company. And the company is willing now even to take the initiative toward obtaining the men more wages if they can only halt the Brotherhood's march. This Organiser Grant assures us, "will be impossible." The men are not going to be deceived by this move on the part of the Company. They have been fooled often enough and long enough, and they are determined now to support the Brotherhood on the top. A raise will be granted almost, but it will be granted alright to the Representatives of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, and it will be a substantial one, and not a little five or the dollar raise thrown as a sop to the men through the Company Union Plan, of Employee Representation.

BEFORE you travel, investigate Southern Pacific's service . . . four great rail routes east, an intensive work of trains covering the Pacific Coast high stages and steamship lines. No other railroad offers you such complete travel facilities. You have you choices of through Pullman, sleeper, tourist care or coaches, on fast transcontinental trains.

DINING CAR LOCAL NOTES
Among the notables to visit the Cooks and Walters Home this week was inspector of Service Simon, this official was well pleased with the home, saying that the home and organisation was deserving of the support of every cook and waiter in this district.

The Best of Each
We are frequently asked "Is gelatin used in the manufacture of Ice Cream? If so, why?"
We are proud to have everyone know the raw materials we use. The more you know about our ice cream the more you will appreciate its wholesome goodness.
Gelatin is a pure food of high nutritive value. It is a protein like meat or the white of eggs. It also aids in the digestion of other foods.
Dr. Thomas B. Downey of Mellon Institute of Industrial Research, Pittsburgh, Pa., writes, "Ice Cream is a better food when gelatin is included."
Gelatin increases the food value of Ice Cream and keeps it smooth and free from ice crystals until served.

Regular morning services were held at 11:00. Rev. Robert House preached a very soul to Mr. Randolph during the past week and Mr. Randolph was high in his praise of her work, stating it was a pleasure to dictate to one that you did not have to spell every word to. He further stated that it is up to all of our race to make places for each worthy young ladies such as Mku Shorey proves herself to be. Always alert and dependable. Her sympathies with the Brotherhood has also extended over three years.

HE'S RISEN KING OF KINGS
Vernon E. S. Brunson
He's risen from the grave's low bed. And prison
The crucifix, the spear point sharp;
The grave within the rock hewn
tomb—
Him could not bind.
Oh sound the cymbal and the harp
Dispell the first day's dreadful
gloom
And let his resurrection shine.
OH SING!
He's broke the blade of death's sharp
scythe—
For evermore;
Be glad!
The souls of men are not to die
Oh nevermore!
Sing ye athens sons or men
Already Nature has its song—
In flowers, birds—all living things.
He's conquered Death, the Grave,
and Sin—
Oh praise him men with triumph
song.
For he has risen King of Kings!
Kings!

In The Social Whirl
Charming in its beautiful simplicity, the marriage of Mrs. Rose, Bertha Primus, popular young matron of the Bay District, to Mr. Harry Webster Cox of Los Angeles, was solemnized Sunday, March 24th at 5 o'clock in Pasadena, at the residence of Rev. Moore, Pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church. The ceremony was read by the Rev. Moore in the presence of a goodly number or friends of the couple, in a beautiful surrounding of greenery and spring blossoms. During the reading of the ceremony, Mr. Henry Starr, brother-in-law of the bride, played and sang "I Love You Truth." Mrs. Moore, wife of the pastor, sang "At Dawning" immediately following the ceremony.
The bride, attended by Mrs. Lee J. Hicks, of Los Angeles, made an attractive picture in her smart blue ensemble, with blue bodice and shoes and hat to match. She carried a shower bouquet or red roses. The bride, formerly of Topeka, Kansas and Chicago, has been making her home with her sister-in-law, Mrs. Emma Collins, of San Mateo. The groom is a native or Missioni and has been making his home in Los Angeles for the past four years. He saw service overseas in the late war as a Captain of Infantry, 92d Division. Mr. Lee J.

The Graduate Chapter of the Girl Reserves of the Y. W. C. A., 12th St. Branch, held a social last; Thursday afternoon, and a delightful proram was rendered while the refreshments were being served. The "kitchen mechanics" really outdid themselves with "red hots" and chocolate. Miss Vivie Letluridra appeared first on the program with a solo; Miss Geraldine Barton a humorous selection "Jump Back Honey, Jump Back"; Solo, "Clad Rag Doll" by Miss Marguerite Robinson; and Negro Spirituals by the trio, Misses Velma White, Marguerite Robinson and Florence cadrez. The girls were happy to welcome Miss Robinson as a member of the Graduate Chapter.
Miss Helen Boyd, of East 21st street, entertained a group of Los Angeles and Riveride friends at the home of her parents, 117 East 10th street, Riveride, California, with a "egg hunt" a hiking party and other modes of entertainment, Sunday, March 24th. Everyone had a wonderful time thru the courtesy of Miss Boyd who made an exceptional hostess.
Miss Dorothea McCullough of East 11th street, daughter of, Mrs. Farr took the ending in "Heartbeat" to marry Mr. Albert L. Brooks who is stopping at the Y, M, C, A, 21st Street Branch. Miss McCullough is an organist and singer of note, and her marriage to Mr. Brooks, weil-to-do club man, will be the culmination of a very gretty little romance. They have the congratulations of a host of friends.
Mrs. Katherine J. Barr, Executive Secretary of the Urban League is very busy - engaged planning for the League's Summer Camp, which has been for several years, a feature of the work which the League is carrying on.
Members of the Junior Ne Plus Ulutra Club journeyed to Mount Baldy, Sunday, March 24th, and had the time of their lives hiking and / or playing games. Three car loads, packed to capacity, left Los Angeles at 5 A. M. arriving at the destination at 7 A. M. It was snowing and everyone reverted to early childhood in participating in a good old fashioned snowball fight.
And the lunches! Even writing it makes us hungry. Everything that mother makes and father likes, were in those haskets, and talk about the young people getting away with it. With such young men as Messrs. William Starks, Steve Jones, Alvin Hicks, Richard Bonari and Walter Grezory, how could it stay long? The young ladies who were present, to make the occasion one delightful affair were the Misses Marazaret Stanton, Bettie Hook, the Madison Hudson, A Cour, the Delma Sault, Daisy Hudson, Agnes Broyles, with Miss Rebbie Rhyples as special guest, and Miss Louise Bulthazar and Mrs. Montague acting as chaperons.
Was walking near the Apex one evening and heard someone warbling a popular ditty, which from the outside, sounded like this:
"Don mine the garray skiez,
Don mine the garray skiez,
Coz you - you make them buil-ooa,
Songy Roy."
Sonyy boy.
Well, whoever it was that warbled the above had a voice for crying out loud, and one that wrecks the composure.
Said the boy who was about to be electrocuted: "What a pain this seat turned out to be."
Talking about electrocutions reminds us of the newspaper report not long ago about a Black man and a White man being put to death on the same day. Such a thing has never happened before in San Quentin. Oh, my. The idea, electrocuting these two men on the same day. 'Preposterous!' We guess they thought the spirit of the Black man would arrive at the Pearly Gates before the spirit of the White man and so crowd the latter out.
The harrowing experience of removing the sick to the hospital or sanitarium, or the joyful experience of returning them home again, well and happy, will be less exhausting to the sick one's immediate family, now that the Angelus Funeral Home is putting on an "Ambulance Service," with Mr. J. L. Hill, driver. The new ambulance is to be white, and all indications point to a really jam-up service.
The "We Moderns Club" entertained their friends with a Cabaret Party at the home of the Supervisor, Mrs John Tinsley, on East 41st street, Saturday, March 23rd. The beautiful little home of Mrs. Tinsley was packed with friends of the "We Moderns," who thoroughly enjoy the entertainment. Miss Ruth Givens, pegite little dancer, sang jazz songs like nobody's business, and showed the audience some joy and happiness, which of this world, Miss Givens, was dressed in a Russian costume, with Russian boots. Mr. Fred Skinner played and sang several delightful numbers, while Miss Lucille Forby

Unum Club meeting last Friday af-
ternoon was the home of Mrs. J. B. Perdue,
Mrs. Lucille Watkins, the club's
newlywed, was the charming hostess
at this most delightful business meet-
ing.
Following the discussions of much important business, the club members enjoyed seeing some additions to Mrs. Watkins' array of gifts which are still "showing in," in consequent of the beautifully appointed shower given in her honor by the club a few weeks ago. Very enjoyable Italian refreshments were served, after which the club adjourned until next meeting, which will be at the home of Miss Aurora Slater.
The Harmony Literary and Art Club entertained with a Walisy Line Social, Thursday evening; residence of Mrs. Glenn in 41st street.
The Frivolity Girls having been organized since September '26 report their first by "meeting which was March 18, 1929. At present their are eight charter members. Which to the utmost highest are remembered for their mutual hand through the past years. The definition of "Frivolity" is "pleasure." But we were not organized with the thought of pleasure for ourselves but for others as well. Unnately we can not personate the help we have added others. The club as a whole consists of quite a few business girls which old and new have the spirit of climbing to the top.

The young people (The Heralds of Taboracle) are preparing to present to the public a great Christian play, subject: "Miss Nobody," played by 24 great characters. Come and see how "Miss Nobody" bravely stands up for Jesus and leaves a home of luxury an riotous living to follow the straight path, which later causes her girl friends to accept him too. Although one narrowly escapes on her deathbed, but alas! She makes it in time. Come and see Miss Myrtle (the rich damsel) pleading to Jesus to accept her who only a few minutes past had said all manner of evil against him. You will surely miss a treat if you miss seeing this play. It is something worth while. Watch this paper for further announcements.

CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS
A SERMON BY REV. DR.
H. D. PROWD
"LIGHT IN DARKNESS---
"When I sit, in darkness, The Lord
Shall be a Light Unto Me"—
Micah VII.: 8
We are fast approaching Easter Day, when the world over, will be celebrating Our Lord's Resurrection from the dead. This yearly Christian festival is, unquestionably, the one big day in the Christian World, and all the faithful should observe and enjoy it to the full. A day of rejoicing indeed—and C, the many sermons that will be preached on that subject. The many chant will attend Church. The many that will appear in new, and fine apparel. The many that will missuse the church. And the other hand—man will worship the Lord, most gladly would join in celebrating the day with a sermon all about our Lord, and His rising from the dead—But I am thinking today, of those who are sick, and shout in, "I am thinking of those who carry heavy burdens. Those with broken hearts. Those who are disappointed. Those who have lost relatives, and loved ones. Those who are tempted to the point of questioning the love, and the wisdom, and justice of The Heavenly Father, in permitting such trials, and sorrows to overtake them. TO DARKNESS—BALM IN SADNESS. Our Text is the only such, in the whole Bible, and we should appreciate it as coming from a loving Father, remember it, as worthy of our recollection, and appropriate it, as those who really need, and are thankful for it. "WHEN I SIT IN DARKNESS, UNTO ME."
THE LORD SHALL BE A LIGHT
Micah—the meaning of whose name is Poor, Humble, Stricken, was a native of Marasha, a village in the south of Judah. He was the sixth of the minor Prophets, and prophesied in the reigns of Jotham, Ahaar and Hezekiah, kings of Judah. He terms his predictions—"A vision concerning Jerusalem and Samaria. The Assyrian, and Babylonian captivities were both drawing near, and the Prophets—Isaiah, Joel, Hosea, Amos and Micah, were raised up to foretell these calamitous events, and exhort the people to repentance. Outside of the fact, that, he excelled all other Prophets, in that, he alone rointe do the very place of our Lord's birth. Ch. V.2. His writings may be divided in three parts: THE FOLLY OF TRANSGRESSION: THE WRATH OF GOD: AND THE HOPE OF THE REPENTANT AND EARNEST BE L'EVER IN GOD.
The Chapter whence our text is taken, describes a period of devastation, dire want, and suffering, and yet, hat of courage, hope, and confidence,—When I sit in darkness, The Lord shall be a Light unto me. For farbis consideration, let us approach the text in the manner it points to. We have:
"When." Our Heavenly Father, in all his works, and laws, teaches a system of revolving gradulatory change, occasioned by and adopted to peculiar conditions, and times. He did not make everything at the same time, but one by one. There is a beginning, there is the growth, there is development—and then someth perfection. We none of us live our whole life in one brief period of time. We have not all the circumstances of a life time, joyous or painful, or curious one time—but one by one. This teaches the great lesson of preparedness to meet and adapt ourselves to the changes in our world. It teaches the wisdom of reflection. We are none of us, always in the same condition, but day by day, meeting something new, something before, unheard of, something untruded. But "when" these things appear—let us face them as they come, one by one. Have we reason to rejoice today? Let us rejoice: But remember it is not always to be so. Have we a crisis, a disappointment, a sorrow of day?—face it, and remember the day "when" it was not so, but brighter. David once had a very bad day. The Sun did not some out for him that day—O. it was dark, dark, very dark. Well he just took on the spirit of reflection, and he remembered the good, bright days that had gone before. Then he learned at his trial, and took up his Harp and sang, "I will to remember the tender merger that has been even of old."
cies, which have been ever of ours.
The text calls us away from the
afairs of other people, and makes us
remember that this is—;
The divine writer says: "T—Yes, when I sit, Q. how well for us to cease our meddling, and come home to one's own self. Some are so generous, as to be ever wanting to carry the cross for some one else. Some are either blessed, or cursed with the long-nose for other people's affairs—alongside cefting their own, is it that business, or merely in it? Is it business transaction? They can solve the problem for you. Is it a family disturbance? Well, they are willing to set the husband, and wife, aside and bring about order. Is it a
nice bit of sound? Well, they are ready with the, "I told you so." Is it a funeral? Well, they are to be there just next to the mourners. Now, in many cases we are to hear one another's burdens, yet do not forget that each one of his has his and her peculiar cross to hear. Yes, each has his day of trial. We must face the day when it comes—it is hot you, nor they, but I. It is a personal matter. The Master hath business with you. When Lazurius was dead, and Jesus appeared on the scene, Mary had quite a lot of company, but Martha brought her a personal message—The Master has come, and callleh for thee. Each must come face to face with various things, and changes, in all the circumstances of life.
The text calls attention to—
III.
A PERFECT OF CONTEMPLATION
There never was a period in the history of man, that the world was as bugy, and in a hurry, confusion, mixup, misunderstanding and no time for meditation, as today. Indeed, there are work, but they deny themselves time for either refreshments, or recreation. There are business people—men and women—who are so completely buried in work that they have never taken a vacation. These do not give themselves a chance to recuperate, a chance to contemplate the higher, the nobler things of life. Except by accident, stinkness, or otherwise compelled absence, they remain that way till premature death actually draws them away. Concerning all such, we may truly say, "they are gon to rest." "WHEN I SIT!" Yes, the Heavenly Father—like the early parents used to—has called us in. Has to sit us down for meditation. But O. the mercy, the loving kindness, the tenderness: He does with great sympathy. Our old parents in the days gone by, would sometimes take cessation to sit us down pretty hard: But not so with the Heavenly. "For He knoweth our frame, He remembereth that we are dust." He sits us down gently. But he wants us at times, to sit in meditation: And if we will not take the time he surely will find us the time—time to sit for the purpose.
to sit for the purpose.
The text points to—
IV.
A SESSION OF PAKENTAL
DISCIPLINE
It speaks of the dark room. The days were when we did not—because we did not need "The Juvenile Court." Our old parents attended to that little business at home. And they knew their business well. Some of us can remember having been called, or brought in, and made to sit in the dark room. They did not seem right to use them. Ex: O, how we now bless them for those times of parental discipline. Now our dear Father in Heaven would, at times, have us in session, and in the dark room. It is for our good, thou us apprehend it not. St. Paul says, Hebrews 12:11, "Now no chastening for the present semeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceful fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby." O, for grace just to say, "Thy will be done."
"The Lord shall be a light unto me."
There are experiences in life intended for the individual. There are places to which he must go alone. There are depths and heights—down to which, and up to which, the Christian must be ciled to go alone. No one knows as like the Henvenly Father, and He alone must deal with us—A stranger does not understand, he cannot enter into my sorrows, he cannot penetrate the darkness, he cannot comfort, he cannot satisfy, he cannot deliver me. But there is one only one that knows all about me. There is one only one that knows relatives, and friends, forsake and have me. But He never "When I sit in darkness, The Lord shall be a light unto me." O, I just look at that "shall." No its, no perhaps, no maybe's—but "SHALL." Faith takes a firm stand right here and now. No matter what the trial, the burden, the care, the obstacles. No matter where I am, or where the enemy put me, or where I have brought myself. Thank God—he comes with the light. The light His everlasting promise of faith, the light that comes to the eye of faith, the confidence in Him, where word hath never experience gives—O yes, I have been in hard places before, I have, seen trouble before, I have stood face to face with death before, and the Lord delivered me—And, now that "SIT IN DARKNESS, THE LORD SHALL BE A LIGHT UNTO ME."
He was with David when he met the giant. He was with Moses at the Red Sea. He was with the Hebrew Children in the Furnace. He was with Daniel in the Ilians' Den—His word with, "I Will Never Leave Thee, I Will Never Forsake Thee." I hold fast to the text: "WHEN I SIT IN DARKNESS, THE LORD SHALL BE A LIGHT UNTO ME."

We were quite surprised last Sunday morning to hear the pastor of one of our large Methodist churches, preceding a good sermon, attack the rank and file of the world, the common masses religiously, inclined toward journeying on Easter morning in their gas wagons to mountain tops for sunrise services.
The Christ we have been taught to believe in faithfully, goes out of his way daily to save souls. Such being the case to our mind its a mighty poor Christian that won't spend a few dimes for gas to transport them to the mountain tops once a year as of old to be reincarnated with the teachings of Christ, who himself is credited with having preached that wonderful sermon on the mountain top as laid down in the 5th chapter of Matthews.
In criticizing these folks the pastor with the Studebaker referring to the gas man who makes his living selling gas and contributes of his meager income a portion to the church, says, he is responsible for the mountain top proposaion spread abroad in order that he may sell his gas. If, the gases could accommodate the hundreds of thousands that annuity attend these morning services it would perhaps be different. Since they can't attempt to shoot them off the mountain tops away from hearing His word.
We wonder what would happen if Chris directed a committee to wait upon our pastorial friend and ask him to conduct out-door services from the top of Mt. Whitney, Tamalliphs, or Aetna? Who knows but that he'd honor Christ's invitation and accept.
Sympathy. Who said the Negro wasn't asking or seeking sympathy, said Acimia Hicks, elevator operator at the Oxtail Building.
That's not so. He is but its financial sympathy. Have you any to offer? That Golden gate, Liberty Loan, Unity Finchin may even the Somerville Hotel can stand that kind of sympathy. So say we all.
Dr. Bailey's handsome looking little coupe had a severe attack or gorrites last week. Dr. Hawkins or Hawkins Auto Hospital managed to treat it successfully so Dr. Bailey could again assist sick folks to get well.
We wonder what Eddie Baker has done with his Dodge? Looks funny to see him riding about in a Footmobile.
Mrs. Dorothy Houston is still the official family chauffeur. Her husband doesn't know the spark plug from the tail light but he loves to ride.
We understand from reliable sources that the ghost walked not long ago on 49th street between Long Beach and Compton. The occasion was a birthday party given in honor of A. E. Andersonia. Traffic was conjected as folks—big folks, little folks, all nation folks, religious folks, the devil's folks, and whatnot folks—all came and went in their autos, on their bicycles, on street cars in company with their children. As a result he is still wearing a smile that won't come off. By the way, who was the lady that first saw the snake and gave the alarm which brought out the fire department?
Bill Wheat, the garage man, is able to transport himself about the house and premises where he lives after a severe fire. Hurry up, several jobs are waiting on you.
Central Avenue citizens have spent in the last year nigh onto half a million dollars beautifully the thoroughfare with arithmetic, well built buildings that house up-to-date business.
The city at the expense of the taxpayers has invested another half million in beautifying it with ornamented lights and now bless your soul, as if all this was too much substantial improvement for Negroes and Jewish people to enjoy along comes the Los Angeles Light and Power pop-up theater throughfare 5 miles or unnably high-powered telegraph poles each about 50 feet high, when as a matter of fact the line should have been run 5 or 10 feet under ground as on Broadway or any other similar thoroughfare of importance.
Yesterday you could see the improvements unobstructed. Today you can't see these same improvements for those unsightly 50-foot, telegraph poles. The two groups living in this district haven't generated a power enourable as yet to demand political recognition and respect if they had the powers that be might have made a Pennsylvania Avenue of it. Wake up folks, turn on the complaint switch and shock the Council's senates.
The Somerville Hotel recently succeeded in under Somerville administration, and to our regret it has at least temporarily, perhaps, permanently, though we hope not, passed into the hands of a million dollar hotel corporation of Jewish folks. We feel that the transaction as in similar cases was unwarranted, unnecessary, or uncalled for and had chose in charge pinned just a little maeaf in willing folks of our group who were able to finance the proposition; if, as has happened, the water was squeezed out of the garment and they could see the true value. The late Herman Perry, founder of the Standard Life, the largest Negro insurance ever organized, owned and operated by Nestroes, for Negroes, chose the same course and Ne

H. A Van Norman, has been appointed as engineer, general manager of the Department of Water and Power. At the same time, the Board of Water and Power Commissioners voted to discontinue the Bureau of Water Works and Supply and Power and Light thus making it easier to monitor water and power economies in the operation of the Municipal Water and Power system.
Following the appointment of Mr Van Norman as head of the Department, the Board named E. F. Reeatergood as chief electrical engineer of the Department and Frank E. Weymouth as chief electrical engineer. Mr Scott was in charge of the electrical work in the years 1915-1917. Weymouth joined the Department months ago as assistant chief engineer under Van Norman.

regained after white concerns had

The Somerville is in the same boat it present, and if Negroes ever recover possession they will pay the price. The hotel corporation which now controls its jestinies is no fool. They will sell it back to black folks, but at their price. Yesterday, $15,000 was the price it took to save the day. Today it is a different tune; liberal has the say and Shylock holds the scales. How long. O Lord, how long. Have mercy local, have mercy Shylock, lay down thy knife. Negroes tempt their own fate by mistreating your own.

Law Seeks White Powers Behind Bootlegging
MONTGOMERY Ala., March 20 (8) The Association of Negro Press). At the recent term of the circuit court of this county, the grand jury called attention to the fact that every case brought before them charsing the manufacture or liquor involved only Negroes, while the testimony indicated that these Negroes were working for white men who profited by their violation of law. On the basis of these facts, the grand jury made the following recommendation: "Without any lessening of effort or law-enforcement authorities toward the capture of the white employers who, in our opinion, are the more culpable of the two classes of offenders."
This recommendation of the grand jury is considered significant on its own account. It brings to mind also the statement of a well-known Southern white man interested in the improvements of race relations, to the effect that "if white and Negro preachers understood each other and worked together, as well as white and Negro bootleggers do, a large part of our interracial troubles should speedily come to an end.

Trammon escaped after the double shooting. Police learned Viola had gone home later than usual and Trammon began to quarrel with her. The mother-in-law interceded which aroused the anger of Trammon. Police learned Trammon drew a pistol and shot the aged woman who died instantly. The younger woman was wounded in the abdomen when she tried to prevent Trammon from shooting her mother.
Kelley Kar Company's Efficiency Told
With automobile manufacturers everywhere instituting policies that will gain and maintain the absolute confidence of the automobile buying public, retailers of these same autos, if they are to be successful, must guard their reputations and integrity and build on a foundation of public confidence, according to R. e Lalie Kelley, owner of the Kelly Kar Company, 1225 So. Ffjuerqua Street, who addressed the Kelley organization yesterday on "The Marketing of automobiles, past, present, and future trend." "In keeping with our policy of "every customer a satisfied one," we have inaugurated our Blue Seal guarantee, and thousands of owners identify the benefits of this warranty of absolute satisfaction, sald Kelley.
"The Kelley establishment, maintains a service department with a crew of experts, and every car is subjected to a very rigid inspection, and is thoroughly gone over, before the "Blue Seal" is placed on the car and the automobile on the display room floor, continued Kelley.
The fact that 4000 nearly new cars were sold from the Kelley Kar Company during the year 1928, indicates that the Los Angeles motor buying public is fully appreciative of the more satisfactory merchandizing methods and guarantees offered by his firm, declared Kelley.

Protection Against Typhoid Fever
BY ALGERNON B. JACKSON, M. D.
For Tae Associated Negro Press)
Typhoid fever may occur at any time during the year, but it is most prevalent in the United States in the late summer and during the autumn when the body is exposed and then into the body through the mouth with food or drink, or by means of direct infection w/o flies.
Among foods other than milk that are most likely to be exposed to infection and liable to convey typhoid fever are those eaten raw or uncooked. Well-cooked food properly pasteurized or boiled milk or milk products are safe from the danger of conveying typhoid or other milkborne or waterborne diseases. Of course, any article handled by a carrier of these diseases may convey the disease, and cooking is no protection, if one should be so unfortunate as to come in contact with food prepared or served by such a person. A "carrier" of a disease is a person who, although not sick with the disease himself, harbors and discharges the germs of a particular disease from his body. The part played by the fly in the spread of typhoid fever and other diseases must of course be always kept in mind.
The natural question arises as to how these typhoid germs get into water, milk and other foods. The answer is simple. They come from the bowel and kidney discharges of persons who are suffering from the disease, or who are carriers of the germs. Typhoid fever prevalence, therefore, depends upon insanitary methods in respect to the disposal of the body wastes or the human being. Typhoid germs, or typhoid plants if you prefer to call them that, may live for sometime outside of the body; and in milk which is allowed to stand at moderate or summer temperature, they will increase in large numbers within a few hours, because milk is an ideal food for their growth, as it is for the growth of most germs.
It will be understood, of course, that these little plants are so small that several million of them can be spaced very comfortable in a drop of water or milk, or that a typoid corer might harbor enough of them under his arm. The one with aozoceris flies also carry these corers on their feet if they have had the opportunity of getting them on their feet.
It must be remembered that typhoid germs are living, reproducing plants which grow in and derive their nourishment from our bodies. In their multiplication and growth, they not only take their nourishment from our body cells, but they produce poisons, which are called "toxins," that make us sick and often kill. This, of course is true of many; in fact, of most disease germs.
The pasteurization, or the boiling for a few minutes, of milk and the boiling of water when it is of doubtful purity, will remove all danger from typhoid fever and other water-borne diseases. This is an important thing to remember. Not every person who swallows typhoid fever germs has typhoid fever; neither does every person who comes in contact with poison develop an inflammation of the skin. Just why this is true, we do not definitely know, but it is, nevertheless,

Sociology Club of Cooperative Enterprises
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Alm., Mar. 18. (By The Associated Negro Press). Albon L. Holsey, Secretary of the National Negro Business League, addressed the Sociology Club, Thursday evening on the subject of Distribution Changes in the Grocery Industry. Mr. Holsey told of the recent conference on the grocery industry which was held in Louisville, Kentucky, and after presenting a report of this conference, he said:
"Now what does all this mean to the Negro? It means first of all that the Negro, in my opinion, has his greatest opportunity, for development alone business lines in the retail field. At the present time, as I have indicated, the whole system of merchandise disribution is in a fluid state, and with the recent survey of Negro business by the Business League, Negro Pusiness is focusing the attention of the Negro to how to get in before the merchandising system frees up or solidifies. If we wait until that time comes, the Negro will be completely frozen out. "My reason for going to Louisville was to call the attention of certain executives of the wholesale grocery trade there, to the development of the cooperative organization which we have in Montgomery, Alabama. It is our plan to place similar grocery associations in many other cities of the South, and we have the assurance that our plans have the potential to develop and cooperation of these national executives. The Negro has an unusual opportunity, the most favorable that he has had since Emancipation, in my opinion." "Annonayasa B. Bassea a ETE
Coolidge To Hoover
ONE IMPORTANT CHANGE
AT WHITE HOUSE
(For The Associated Negro Press)
We knew that a change from the Cochise to the Hoover Administration would make for important changes somewhere, and we have been searching for the changes. At last we have located the most important one. It was not in the cabinet; the current history students in the schools will only be bothered to learn the several new names. It was not in the "Federal Offices" of the South. In fact, there were too few changes, in that particular, to suit the majority.—for the majority are always the office hunters. The most important change so far made will affect the White House Cook; Cochise liked for breakfast flapjacks and sausages; and we learn that Hoover perfers flapjacks and bacon. If the cook will make this little adjustment in the menu, then the whole machinery of government will run for the next four years just as silently and smoothly as for the last years. The oil involved might occasionally smell a little, but then it is a way of smoothing friction and silencing noises.
Anyhow, we have a new menu.
The Adult Cooking Class meets at Lafayette Junior High School, 1515 E. 14th street, Room 10, every Friday afternoon from 1 to 3. All adults, both men and women who are interested in cooking are cordially invited to join this class. The work is a combination of demonstrations given by demonstrators sent out by different food companies and who have been approved by the Home Economics Department, and of practical class work following these demonstrations. Some lessons in correct serving will also be given if the class wishes them. Fancy desserts will be given at the lessons on April fifth. Come and bring your friends and be ready to offer suggestions as to what you wish to have for the next lesson.

"Fournier describes the course of a case of syphilis as a drama or tragedy, with acts and pauses," this is apt simile for from the beginning of the infection to the end of its course, there are periods or activity of the disease and periods in which the disease is giving no apparent reaction that is it appears to be quite and inactive.
As previously stated, the germ of syphilis may enter the body at any point where there is a break in the skin surface or mucus membrane lining the body. Now at whatever point the germ of syphilis enters the body—at that very point is the first sore or chauche. Thus if you should contract syphilis by kissing a person with a syphilitic sore on the mouth, then the first sore on oyu would be on the lips

or mouth. Should a person however contracty syphilis, by having intercourse with another person who had syphilitic sores, on the geutial organs, then the former person would have their first sore or chancre on, or in some part of the genital organs.
can supra io uuo sed uoaes uoody sores or chancre of syphilis are on other parts of the body and about ninky-two per cent of all initial sores or chancre are on the geutial organs. Most of the chancre that are not on the geutial organs are on the lips, next in number in respective order are those on the tongue, tonsilis, anus, arm and hand, breast, chin, trunk of the body, cheeks, eyelids, nose, leg, neck, gumes, etc. Practically all of these sores of syphilis may be acquired innocently, by kissing, eating, drinking, bathing or shaving after an infection person.
Stages of Syphills.
Remember we said that in the strange drama of syphilis that there were "acts, and pauses." So it is from the very beginning. There is the first act, at the time when the germ enters the body—the act or kissing, wiping with an infected towel or intercourse with an infected person. Once in contact with the germ from a syphilic sore or the blood from a syphilic person, the germ will enter

the body of an uninfected person thru any break in the skin and then the second person has syphilis. They will hardly believe that they have syphilis because there is a long pause between the first act of contracting the disease and the initial manifestatin of the same. For about twenty-one days after the small germs of syphilis or the trepanema pallidum as we learned they were named, for about 21 days after they enter the body, they lie just as still and quiet as a little mouse for fear some one may suspect that they are in the body and try to put them out. But while they are not making any fuss they certainly are working and worst of all they are Multiplying, very rapidly. Genus you know, can double and square and cube their number in a very surprisingly short while, and so during these twenty-one days the few little trepanema that entered have become many thousand strong and have successfully invaded the tissues of the body. Now they are prepared to make an open attack. The infected individual notices a small sore on his lips or on the genitals or whatever part of the body the germ entered and he does not even think of the stolen (or unstolen) kiss or the regular or, or irregular intercourse nor any other act whereby he contracted the disease, for that occurred three long weeks or more ago and surely it can have nothing whatever to do with quiescence the tiny germs have invaded the tissues and strengthened and thoroughly fortified themselves so that there is no power under the sun that can get them out of this man's body except by a long tedious, and even then relatively uncertain, course of treatment. After a while when the man notices the hard edge or base that forms on this sore he becomes alarmed and goes to—maybe a quack or maybe to a regular and good physician. If he goes to a quack he tells him "not to worry," that with just a very FEW treatments, and very few dollars he can be easily cured. But can he? We shall see.

that he must be more conservative in the distribution of his wealth than others.
ABOUT THE ONLY investment in which the Negro has maintained perfect faith to the extent that it has been a success is church building.
PREJUDICE is a cancer that eats into the soul of man. It may be the prejudice of one individual towards another, one race against the other or a certain political party towards the other, but in whatever case it is prejudice right on.
IT MAY be an awful admission, but to our way of thinking the Negro is more susceptible to this disease than
others, for as a rule, in nearly every case, with him, it becomes personal. If, even his own kin disagrees with him in religion or politics he considers the same an unpardonable sin.
WE CONTEND that so long as the white politician may keep the Negro politicians at war with each other just so long will he (the Negro) be the political target at which the white man hurls his prejudices.

GETTING INTO THE LIMELIGHT
Looks like a whole lot of stage play not in the lines is being enacted in connection with the Judge Hardy impeachment case and in the meantime considerable effort of not only legislators, but other citizens to get into the limelight.
THE RACE IS ON
Wit hthe closing of the nominations for city officials on last evening, this city now enters definitely into the greatest municipal campaign in its history. As time moves on the men and measures, to think and act for yourselves. The time is on May 7th, every citizen should be prepared to pass judgement as to their choice for the various offices which are to be filled. There are enough aspirants to choose from and surely this people should be capable of making the very best selections

We would adjure the voters to study well upon both men and measures, t othink and act for yourselves. The time is long past when any people should suffer themselves to be played as pawns upon the political checker board.
This publication will as in the past be open as a political Forum, each aspirant can if he so chooses have the opportunity to state their case in these columns for the consideration of the readers thereof.
The people whom we serve in chief, are those who have suffered the most from a persistent raw deal, especially along the line of political non-recognition and it is this very people who should more assiduously study the aspirants and the things they stand for. There is no question but in the multitude of aspirants for Mayor, there should be those who stand for a square deal for all the citizens, regardless of race, creed or previous conditions of servitude and finding such an aspirant we will surely find the most logical person to support.
UP TO ITS OLD GAME
Some hoodlums at Chicago opened up and caused a melee at the ringside of the Thompson-Fields fight in Chicago. The Examiner (up to its old game of injecting prejudice and hate) gives a big heading to carry forth the thought that mixed bouts caused it and that the same would be banned in Chicago in the future. We take it if one of the participants of the gang killing in Chicago where seven men were lined up and killed had been a Negro, according to the Examiner's philosophy, mixed gang killings would be tabooed, otherwise "On with the Dance!"

EASTER AND D SPRING
Easter and spring cannot be dissociated, no matter how early or late the religious festival may come nor how unseasonable the weather attending its advent. Easter is spring and life is reborn. The dead days are past and the requiem of winter is forgotten as the birds sing the resurrection of nature. The poet sighs, the sun smiles, perhaps, and the woman with a new spring hat looks anxiously at the meteorological emanations from the shrine on Olympus which the irreverent flippantly call the weather works.

Enveloping and hallowing it all is the atmosphere that sends the soul journeying beside still waters, through peaceful velleys, soft grasses and awakening buds and soothing it with imaginary scents of flowers awaiting only warmth to spread their sweetness on a newly-aroused world.
Besides its religious meaning, that is the spirit and significance of Easter and it is older even than the Christian religion. The display of colors and raiment in unison with the earth throwing off its old garments is as ancient as the race. Man always has wanted to sing as soon as the birds did and he has done so. Even the Bible has its beautiful poetic allusions to spring, and the vernal festivals of ancient days were a public expression of the song that was in the hearts of the people as a whole.
Man does not have anything he did not inherit, so it is not strange that a woman wants a pretty hat at Eastertime. As a matter of fact, it would be strange if she did not. And it is not to be expected that poets will quit caroling about spring as long as nature sends winters that inspire poets to say, "Oh, win, if winter comes, can spring be far behind?"
MOVING TIME
Well, moving time is here again, and how busy a great many folk will be! They will have to bring in the piano box from the back yard, where it has been either a playhouse for the children or a coop for the dog. They'll have to wrap the old comforts around the criffonier and newspapers around the chair legs. The old house will have to be cleaned up, and so will the new one. Something will be lost—something always is—and much will be thrown away.

There is a great deal of waste about moving. Ben Franklin, in his wise way, said: "Three removes are as bad as a fire." Yet when spring comes all the disadvantages of the old place are apparent; the landlord isn't willing to do very much in the way of papering and painting, and a new place looks a lot better.
What is even better than a new house of someone's else to live in, is a home of your own. Then when you want something done you do it yourself and have the satisfaction of knowing it has added a little to your own property. You feel established and your neighbors begin to think you amount to something. This year you buy new screens, and next year put a little hedge around the lawn. The whole thing's yours. You have a just pride in it.
It is a fine plan, if you must move, to move just once more—into a home of your own.

Than the present, there is no time of the year when a community can look dirtier and more uninviting or cleaner and purer. Undisturbed, winter's accumulation of dirt and debris hides all that is clean and fresh. Washed off and carted off, it reveals a panorama little the worse for the wear and tear of the rigorous months.
Every property owner, householder and business man should sense an overpowering duty in the spring of the year to make his buildings and grounds fit into nature's picture of cleanliness and freshness. And the performance of this civic duty costs little in time, expense and effort.
If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened
COMMENTS
BY: W. J. WHEATON
Professor Samuel H. Holmes, nationally known as an autior of biological text books and who holds the chair of zoology at the University of California, in a recent lecture, declared that the increasing Negro births in the United States is—because of the corrective methods used to conserve health and prolong life—rapidly approaching that of the whites. "The colored birth rate is higher than the white," he said. "The Negro death rate is rapidly decreasing through acquired immunity from respiratory diseases, and the Negro population is rapidly overtaking that of the white." All of this is good if true. It is pleasing to know that any people living in the confines of a Christian Nation have in a few decades learned the secret of healthful lives and are contributing to the strength and virile power of the nation. Such a people cannot prove a "menace." Only a cowardly conception of the outlook would conduce such thought. The professor advises national birth control as a panacea. He cited the method of primitive people in killing the aged and unfit and leaving helps children to die, and China and India as countries, where conditions of over population are prevalent, as arguments in favor of birth control.
No people can become a menace where there is an enlightened understanding. The mere fact that the Negro, under the handicap placed upon his very existence, could overcome the odds and become a healthful factor in the communities. Professor Holmes would create a feeling of antagonism between the dark and white people by such insidious propaganda. Coming to the attention of non-thoughtful persons it instills a condition of the mind which is, by far, a greater menace to society as a whole than any increase in the Negro birth rate. The professor's idea that "child birth be placed on a quota basis, the basis to be determined by racial origin," is such a fantastic theory that it is strange that it was given scientific consideration. Holmes says further, "that only by some such method can Negroes and whites continue to grow side by side as separate racial entities without complete intermixture." That theory should have been put in effect a century ago. When one looks over the varied colors of those called Negroes, it is wondered where the racial entity begins or ends. The old cry of savage and barbaric characteristics of the Negro has ceased to ruffle the calm of a growing understanding between the races. They are no longer a menace. According to the professor, the Negro has made himself a greater asset to the nation by a growing knowledge of the necessities of sanitation and hygiene to health. The new propaganda is only a sop to those who have not divested themselves of the fear of "Negro Domination."
Senator Heflin, Alabama, went over to Brocton, Mass., to deliver a lecture to the Mayflower Klan realm of Massachusetts. It was a very inconsiderate thing for him to select the birth date of Ireland's patron, St. Patrick, for the occasion. During the course of his speech he vilified the Patron Saint, besmirched the Roman Catholic Church, derided its religion and condemned every activity fostered under the rule of the Pope. There were some present who resented the diatribe of the Senator and when he left the hall he was greeted by a hail of small stones and such decayed matter as was close to hand. The agitation of hatreds, whatever the form, is to be regretted and decried. In a government such as ours there is no room for harmful propaganda or baleful suggestions. Here in the United States, is a government composed of the people of the earth under process of being molded into a nation. Some of the units which live under the Government have not divested themselves entirely from former environments. The Founders of the government forseeing the diversity of people who would form the nation, wisely encouraged in the constitution which should control it, provision for the tolerance of all religions and freedom of speech. There is no fear of religious dominance of the national government or racial menace to its progress among other than demagogues.
Judge Hardy lost in the preliminary skirmish of his impeachment trial. After hours of debate behind closed doors, which we are informed verged on the point of accrimony, his demurrier was denied, and he goes to trial on the charges. The summons served on Mrs. McPherson; former district attorney Asa Keyes, who will be brought from the Los Angeles jail, where he is held pending his appeal for a new trial on the charge of accepting a bribe; the deposition of Mrs. Kennedy, mother of Mrs. McPherson and a score of others directly or indirectly connected with the case, will bring out evidence which

promises to be sensational. It is mooted that in order to get at the gist of the reason for the issuance of the $2,500 check to Judge Hardy, a great deal of the matter of the sensational kidnapping case, in which Mrs. McPherson figured, will, of necessity, be opened. The trial will hold up legislation in the senate and legislators are figuring on the possibility of remaining in Sacramento until early May.
There have been severe floods in the southern states. Great damage to property and serious loss of lives has resulted. Thousands have been made homeless and the charitable organizations of the nation have been taxed to their capacity to furnish relief. Floods: With their accompanying loss of property and life, have been the bane of sections of the country for numbers of years. The delta of the Mississippi and several of its tributaries are inundated annually. Yet it seems impossible to have the government see the seriousness of the tragedy, for such it is, and remedy the cause. Numerous attempts have been made to pass legislation which would tend to alleviate the condition. But some legislator has always injected a "pork barrel" idea which would neutralize or nullify legislation which might prove beneficial. The previous administration made a very good start toward flood control and it is hopefully waited by the electorate for the present administration to fulfill the requirements which will make the job affective. Being a practical engineer as well as a practical man, there is no doubt but President Hoover will bring results.
Some very amusing things happened when a river in Georgia overflowed its banks and routed the inhabitants of many river towns. Georgia has been one of the most rabid of the states for prohibition. A visit to a Georgia residence in search of illicit "wet goods" was considered an insult. Uncle Sam's prohibition sluths were so sure of the sincerity of Georgia abstinence that a position there was looked upon as a sinecure. But where the sluths failed the floods uncovered. People watching the swirling water as they rushed onward to the sea were amazed to see stills for the manufacture of "John Barleycorn" and barrels of the finished article riding the waters. When the nature of the debris was ascertained, the officials had trouble in preventing the onlookers from endangering their lives to rescue the "precious stuff" from destruction. So, like a good many of the hypocritical falsities which have their being in Georgia, Prohibition has "by act of God" been proven a demagogical plea to cover the hundred and one other sins of omission and commission.
Governor Young has proven impervious to the pleas of the "sob sister." Pleas for clemency must be accompanied by more than tears and pleadings. Murderers who cannot show some patent cause for clemency, and who have been sentenced to die on the gallows, may as well put in their spare time in preparation for the event, because the Governor has made it understood distinctly that unless some cause for leniency can be shown, that he will not interfere with the decisions of the court. There has been considerable agitation for the abolishment of capital punishment, but the majority of Californians who have watched the experiment of other states have come to the conclusio nthat capital punishment IS a detriment to the commitment of crime. Especially MURDER.
The Handwork or Art Class usually meets at Lafayette Junior High School 1515 E. 14th street, Room 16, every Tuesday and Thursday from 1 to 3. The week after vacation only the class will meet Wednesday and Thursday as it is necessary for Mrs. Murdoch to be away from the school on Tuesday. We will have three months to get ideas for summer handwork before the close of school and on the last Friday of the month will avail themselves of the opportunity. We are making many different styles of lamp shades which do much to freshen up the home at small cost. We also make several styles of praques, wool and felt purses, wall hangings, flowers, pollens, and other things as they become popular. There is no charge except for materials and these may be brought from home or bought from the school as is most convenient. We have might good times as well as assemble something just for you if you are at all interested in making beautiful things at small cost.
English For Adults
There are two Adult English Classes at Lafayette Junior High School, 1515 E. 14th street, Room 16. The Advanced Class is for people who can read and write and is a combination public speaking and discussion class. We are studying Rose's Civic Sociology as a basis for our speaking and discussions. This class meets Monday from 1 to 3 and both men and women are welcome.
The class meeting from 8:30 to 10:30 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday is for those just learning to read and write and for those some what more advanced who are studying arithmetic and United States History and spelling. There will be just three months more of school before summer and we can count on good weather most of the time so we have to have a good attendance at all the classes. If, however, there are some who have been in the classes and who find themselves unable to continue we shall greatly appreciate it if they will either bring in or sent in their books so they can be used by others.
Please keep off April, 18th. Grand All Star Concert under management of Florence Cole-Talbert Benefit of Beth Eden Baptist Temple. Auspices Dorcas and 1329 clubs.
March 22, 1929, for a large group of students and professors, under the auspices of the International Club, which is composed of student s of all races, nationalities, creeds and colors. A. Phiky Randolph, President and General Secretary of the Sleeping 'car Porters, spoke on the Negro-Worker.
He stressed the significance of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Cair Porters to the Negro Worker in particular and the labor movement in general. Great interest was manifested in his recounting of the entrance of the Pullman Porters Union in the American Federation of Labor. The large student body showed great opposition to the unfair policy of the Pullman company in trying to compel the porters to vote for the Pullman Wage Conference for the purpose of demoralizing their interest from their own Union. The exposition of Mr. Randolph relative to the mythical chance of Nordic racial superiority, and his observations on the subtle exploitation of this alleged racial difference by the employing class to keep the white and black workers apart, brought and voked deep and discerning interest.
After the adurges, many of the students and professors wished to know from the speaker how they could serve to advance the cause of the movement to organize the porters for a living wage, so that they may be relieved of the necessity of relying upon the uncertainty, irreality, and inadequacy of tips for a living. The Oriental students and Negroes were in large attendance.
Arrest 300 Pound
"Voodoo Man" For Vagrancy
GUILFPORT, Miss., March 19. (By The Associated Negro Press) Joshua Scott, weighing 300 pounds, described by Gulf Coast acquaintances as a "woodoo doctor" and already defendant in one case here, was arrested by city police and lodged in the city jail on a vavrancy charge. Police said Scott carried a suitcase filled with numerous "remedies" including "hot-foot powers", "stay-at-home" powers, "love" powders, rabbits' feet, iron rust, "graveyard dust" and dried lemons cut in half and sewed together with ink written "conjures" inserted in them.

Clean Government and Fairness Announced As Policy of Frank Carleton
FRANK E. CARLETON, formerly Judge or the Eighteenth Judicial District of Montana, has announced his
Frank E. Carleton
candidacy for judge of the Municipal bench of Los Angeles, Office No. 2, and is receiving wide-spread support among the pastors and leading laymen of the city.
Mr. Carleton has been practising law for more than fifteen years and is known for his keen interest in civic affairs and for this constant battle for clean government.
In announcing his candidacy Mr. Carleton has stated the principles up on which he solicits the support of the colored voters in this district:
"I believe that the first requisite of a Municipal Judge is rigid observance of the law, and an impartial interpretation thereof.
"A new era in our city government has been inaugurated by our recent Grand Jury, and era of good, clean, honest government. It is this new eminent government, a legitimacy of our public officials that I find the appeal to run for office, since this principle is in full accord with my own ideals of public office.
"Our taxpayers pay a huge sum every year for enforcement of law, for the protection of their property and life. Enforcement through every department of our city government can only reach its full effectiveness when our judges are fearless in their performance of duty. As in the past I shall be guided only by those principles generally accepted as essential to effective administration of public office."
Mr. Carelton is especially opposed to discrimination because of color or creed and feels that all citizens deserve a "place in the sun."
A number of leasing colored citizens have indicted his policy and pledged him their support. Names of some of them will be published from time to time. All of him in his outspoken condemnation of service brutality.
Mrs Merville Mukenden active young matron in civic religious and social affairs of the city a member of Saints Home Church of which the Rev. Eddie K. Driver is pastor, and the organizer and president of the Sunshine Band was highly commended of this organization for young matrons at the Sunday's meeting of the Sunshine Band.
The occasion represented the Second Annual Sermon of the organization, and after a specially prepared literary program the participants of which were: Mrs. Myrle Drive, Miss Marguerite Smart, Elder Douglass, Mrs. Dana Sneed, Mrs. Edrena, Berry May, Mrs. Myrle Mussenden, Mrs. Ethel Lee, Mrs. Emma Lou Clemens, Mrs. Augusta Robbins, Mrs.' Driver and Mrs. Thomas; the Annual Sermon was delivered by Rev. E. R. Driver, which was heartily received by not only the members of the club but also by the large congregation that filled the auditorium of Elter Douglass' Church at 33rd Street and Central Avenue.

INDICTMENT STILL HANGS OVER HIM
(By: A. N. P.)
Chicago, Mar. 26. It can be authoritatively stated that the recent visit of Congressman-elect Oscar DePriest fro the first District of Humbles to Washington, has convinced him that he will be seated. Open his return to Washington, he promises to open his warm reception in every place he had visited and particularly to the assurances of support and co-operation which he had received from members of congress while he was in the capitol city.
However, that does not after the prospect of his right to a seat being questioned, although in view of the fact that no contest against his seat has arisen from opposing forces in his district, it is believed that the opposition will be largely restricted to white Democrats from the South.
The consensus of opinion, based upon law and precedents, is that Mr. DePriest will probably be seated unless southern opposition arises. The House, however, in times past, refused the oath, in some cases, without giving the reasons, or without giving the applicant a chance to testify in his half. The House is in a position to assume the same position as the Senate took in the case of Frank Smith of Toulouse in which he was Mr. DePriest to out out on the Minstest sort of pretext.
That Mr. DePriest is not unaware of this is brought to be seen in his repeated effect to go to trial in this republication, which charges that he featured and induced gambling in order of influence election returns in the 1926 primary. Twice DePriest's attorneys have asked for trial, but neither time have they been successful in buying a trial date set, although the judge has been assigned. Advises from the State's attorney's office, indicate that the trial will be held late in April or early in May. That means that DePriest will present himself for the oath on April 15 with the cloud of this indictment hanging over his head. The southern opposition, it is believed, will be eager to use the Chicago situation as a bar to the entrance of the congressman-elect.
It is because of this possibility that some of Mr. DePriest's Chicago friends have suggested the wisdom of him not presenting himself in regular session. Congress in Decembrer will have had a change to clean his name and record through the process of a trial. They believe that dental of the oath at the April special session will have a particularly grit and hurtful effect on the racial political program in general.
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE Ala. Ma.

Widespread participation in the observance of Nation, Negro Health Week, March 21st to April 7, is indicated in the many requests for literature and information received here. State departments or health, social service agencies, schools and other organizations in all parts of the country have expressed the desire to take part in the observance. The movement for better health for Negroes has now extended beyond national boundaries, the Negro Community Centre of Montreal, Canada, having stated its intention to promote observance of the week in Montreal. Communities as widely separated as Seattle, Washington and Syracuse, N. Y.; Jena, Louisiana, and Toledo, Ohio, are planning to take part in the annual observance. Cities, towns and rural communities are urged by the National Negro Health Week committee to keep careful and complete record of activities in order to enter the contest for the loving hope annually awarded to cities towns and rural communities by observing the week's reports on observing the love of the nation, which submits them to a board of judges for selection of the winner.
Facts were presented to show that prejudice against the Negro is spreading rapidly against the Negro in this city, and some of the reasons given were the large inflow of white southerners who are active in spreading their propaganda, and the personal habits or many Negroes, who make themselves offensive in public places, and upon public conveyances.
Alkough, the manner in which the southern field hand has accommodated himself to the exactions of the northern industrial program has in many cases been commendable, the Urban League surveys showed that in too many cases, Negroes were losing their jobs because of inefficiency, lack of dependability, uncleanliness (meaning, frequently, and odors), the spirit of insubordination, laziness. Dr. L. K. Williams, president of the National Baptist Convention, asserted its bias, belief that the Negro was going to find it increasingly difficult to make the matter of his boasted equality and job begging life, and that whites were becoming increasingly critical of the Negro because of his extravagant manner of living.
The article which aroused the ice or Mrs. Willebrandt's assistant, and which was widely circulated throughout this city said in part: "The best bet is that Uncle Sam is going to come out second best. If a verdict of guilt is reached it will be somewhat aim to a 100 to 1 shot wining the Kentucky derby—one or those things that nobody expects to happen, and in the ordinary course of human events, simply can't happen.
"In other words, it is not altogether a case of whether the defendants are guilty or innocent, but whether a jury will be willing to encourage the establishment of a white Republican party in Mississippi. Regardless of how illogical it may bound, the idea is rather simply implanted in many minds
that this is the real issue at stake.
"Perry Howard, E. Patton, J. M. McChellan, and George McChellan, the two last named being former Federal officers, will face a jury composed of white Democrats who supported the party ticket last November, and it is hardly to be expected that the caree in heart sympathy with the ambition of the Howe administration to establish a white Republican party in this state, and the guilt and innocence of the defendants consciously or unconsciously, will be a secondary issue.
United States district attorney, older counsel for the prosecution, is a lawyer of exceptional ability, but he is but of his jurisdiction, to speak a stranger in a strange land utterly unacquainted with jurors in this section of the state, and without an advisor who can tell him who to accept and who to object.
DEFENSE WATCHED JURY.
"The defense in selecting Judge Martin Miller, former circuit judge and district attorney, as associate counsel, has called perhaps the best jury picker in the state."
A veteran of the Masterson bar, after a careful study of the list of 25 jurors chosen as members the regular panel for the court term may say:
"We are a ten to one but that the defendants will never be convicted by a jury from that list. The Federal government has just about the same chance that a rank amateur would have with a bunch or professional pocket player using maneuver cards."
# 612 SCHOOLS ENTER HEARST RIFLE SHOT
"Leading universities, colleges, military academies, colleges, schools, colleges, the United States, and universities, the mackenziehawk, the William Brundel Hearst national R. O.

Explains Coolidge Neglectance
From high dependable authority, this writer has learned that one of the big disappointments to President Coolidge was that when he first came to the Presidency these were so many self-imposed colored political bosses, quass race uplifters, and unwanted advisers that he became disusted and concluded that what the colored people needed more than political jobs was more real education. On one occasion a rather needy looking crowd of self appointed leaders called to see Mr. Collidge and left a signed petition, the thought struck the President that he would have the standing of each of these individuals investigated and amongst the other unimportant discoveries, was truly. One of the members of that particular committee was under indictment for having criminally assaulted a school girl, the daughter of his neighbor; when Mr. Coolidge read this particular item, he decided that there was little or nothing to colored uplifters and that the whole crowd of colored people must be tainted better sense than to bring indicted criminals and irresponsible people to represent a Race.
Undismayed and still believing the American people owed this debt of gratitude to the Negro soldiers and sailors, a new champion was found and Congressman Will Taylor of Tennessee introduced another joint resolution with his Memphis constituents in mind that met the same fate. Congressman Taylor used as by Robert R. Church, presented on the last hours of the short session of the recent Congress the Resolution which was passed by both houses and approved March 4, 1929
It is Section No. 5 of this Resolution which we quote, which clearly becomes a joker and an empty honor. This is what some people are throwing their hats in the air about, and screaming, "See what we see." They fall to realize we had the privilege to raise five hundred thousand dollars without the consent of Congress. Read carefully:
"Section 5. That to defray the necessary expense of the commission herein created, and the cost of procuring plans and designs, site, and other incidentals necessary to the construction for a memorial building, as herein provided, (there is hereby authorized to be appropriated, out of any funds available in the United States Treasury, a sum not exceeding $60,000 to be available when the sum of $500,000 shall have been collected and paid into the hands of the National Memorial Association (Incorporated), for purposes in this Act provided."
Section 6. That commission shall from time to time submit to congress detailed plans and the purposes for the work. Approved, March 4, 1923."
Never in the history of American literature have so many books been devoted to the consideration of the Negro race, both in fact and fiction, as during the last two years. Joint in the past six months a great number of valuable works have appeared, and the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch Library tries to buy all of the worthwhile ones. Among the newer books may be noted the following:
Elizabeth Green's "Negro in Contemporary American Literature" is a survey of recent books with excellent coarses for reading suggested and outlined. The sociological aspect has been treated by Jerome Dowd in "The Negro in Contemporary American Life," and in this scholarly volume by J. W. Wooffer "Negro Problems in Cities."
Edwin Smith has taken up both mith and history in Africa, in "The Golden Stool," while another phase of Africa is treated in G. A. Gallock's "Lives of Eminen, Africana." The subject of African travel is written about comprehensively in Martin Johnson's "Safari" and "Camera Trails in Africa," while Gordon MacCreadh's "Last of Free Africa," is a masterly survey of the kingdom or Abyssinia. "Slaves of the Sun" deals with the west coast of Africa in Ossendowaki's brilliant style.
Malti has received its share of attention in Vandercook's "Black Majesty" and Seabrook's "Magic Island," still the most heavily received volumes of non-action in the library. Luca-Dubreton's "Fourth Musketeer" is a fascinating biography of Alexander Dumas the elder.
The fiction covers a wide range of scene and manner. There are the humorous sketches of life in the Congaree swamp by E. C. L. Adams, "Nigger to Nigger." DuBose Howard has far exceeded his previous efforts in "Mamba's Daughter," which tells of the rise of Lissa the singer, "A Study in Bronze" is a berties and interesting study. Rudolph Fiber's "Walls of Jericho" still remains the most interesting presentation of life in Harlem, while "Scrist Sister Mary," by Julia Petrickin remains delightful, "This Side of Jordan," by Roark Bradford, and Jessie Fauset's brilliant "Plum Bun" will prove widely popular.

Pretentious "peace pacts."
Nervous and silly declarations to the effect, that "war is unthinkable between our two countries" (exactly what we told the Germans up to 1913 or 1914).
"Unofficial ambassadors"

Mediculous comparisons of "our navy" with "theirs"
All the blah-blah about "no nation would dare attack us," and "We are the most powerful nation on earth," etc.
Hyporitical anxiety about the wealth of some rival nation's king.
Signing peace pacts with one hand and rashing shipbuilding with the other; like a dog wagging his tail in friendly fashion the while his head grows angrily.
