CEMENT TRUST RECEIVES SET BACK On The Sidewalk By: C.A. B. VOLUME 42 CEMENT CEMENT TRUST GETS SET-BACK Dillowing clouds of death dealing dust which threatened to roll down from Santa Monica Mountains, laying waste to the happy homes and fertile lands below have been wasted away. The menace of terrible earth tremors which would have crushed dwellings in the far distance, and caused Los Angeles' millions to tremble in fear of a second Vesuvius has passed. The heavens will send no cloud of deca, and the rugged old mountains, which wall Santa Ynez Canyon, will not even budge from their firm foundation to do a hoochie kootchie for the edification of Attorney Smiley and pads propagandists of the Cement Trust. All Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night and again on Wednesday night, the brilliant and oft-times sarcastic attorney for the Cement Trust, in his pleading against Commission against Alphonzo Bell's proposed wet rock crushing plant in Santa Monica Mountains, alternately exhorted the heavens to send down even a whiff of dust, or the mountains to leave their base and essay a hopscotch across the valley for him. "Anything, On Heavens and Earth—Anything to save the Face of Me and the Cement Trust," was in effect the prayer for succor which resounded through the ample chambers as Attorney Smiley pleaded with expert witnesses to tell the Planning Commission that the opening of Bell's vast limestone deposits, from human habitation, would constitute a menace to life and property. But Attorney Smiley's prayer went unanswered. "There cannot possibly be a dust menace, for there would be no dust." Mr. M. A. Eiben, President of the Northern Blower Coe, of Cleveland told the commission. "We would eliminate 99.5 per cent or it at the plant." Attorney Smiley's handsome face was wreathed in a beautiful if not wholly pious smile, as he closed his eyes and lifted its features, heavenward. "Oh! Mother Earth—You who have withstood the pounding of the ocean's waves and the terrible earth tremors of time, say that your mountains will be rocked to their very base and that even the floors of your valleys will tremble if a small blast is set off at a rock crusher other than those in which Me and the Cement Trust are interested. Do this, Mother Earth, do it just once, for has not our combine paved your streets of Los Angeles with bricks of gold? Attorney Smiley's beautiful, long eyelashes flickerer, bewitchingly but there was that look of humble supplication, as he turned to Robert, Gordon, powder expert. "How about it, big boy?" "There would be no appreciable tremor felt more than 8000 feet away," was the laconic reply of the witness. Attorney Smiley, bowed his head. "Oh! Satin," he intoned. Oh! Satan strike dumb, the tongues of these imps you have sent to make a tool of Me and the Cement Trust. Have we not always served you well, Oh Satan? Have we not robbed the widows and their children by charging them three-fold for the cement used in public improvements? Have not the interests I am beffielding banded together to mulet the public of other untold millions? Have they not helped boost public improvements so high that the average American home has become a luxury? What more do you want, old pal? But Gordon was continuing: "One major blast would be sufficient to loosen enough limestone to last the quarry a year," he told the commissioner. "The very fact that the surrounding country is made up of limestone and shale would serve to absorb the shock. Attorney Smiley's eyelid again flickered and he folded his hands where his belt buckle should be if he doesn't wear galluses. "Oh! Lor—" Commissioner Perry Thomas' gavel raped sharply. "Recess until next week." Does It Pay To Fight? (For The Associated Negro Press At least 100 people in Dayton, Ohio, thinks it pays, when a National Officer of the N. A. A. C. P. turned up in Dayton four weeks ago he was in jail with a sentence to the electric chair hanging over him—having been convicted or first degree murder with out recommendation or mercy in the outside of a jury of white men. The two lawyers in the case at that time had given up hope and were advising that mercy he sought from the presiding judge, which would mean a life sentence with out eligibility for pardon. But after a conference with the local Branch, and a one-hour's investigation of the facts, the N. A. A. C. P. said it was no more punishment. Freeman was the very most manslaughter, a policeman in arresting him, had stuck a gun in his side and threatened, angrily, to "kill" him. Roy Freeman had grabbed the gun-hand of the officer and in the struggle the gun went off twice, hitting Roy in the first shot, but clipping the lower part of the policeman's heart in the second shot. But all the while this gun was in the officer's hand. But the police were angry: a 'policeman or two had already been killed in Dayton, one of them previously killed "by a nigger" even. Therefore, the whole police machinery was set to work to execute Roy Freeman. The two lawyers almost begged us not to attempt a retail, but to accept life sentence—inasmuch as there was so much prejudice in the case, that he would be electrocuted if we failed in second trial. We went to the jail to see Roy Freeman. We found a great big 12-year-old child who was forty years "of age." We asked him if he objected to our risking his life by fighting the matter to finish. He said, nately: "Of course not, 'cause I didn't do it an' they ain't got nuthin' on me. I am not guilty." Poor fellow! He did not know the pitfalls of 'justice'; he and run away after the shooting and had to be "captured" afterwards, and the police had found some Greek who swore that he saw Roy Freeman shoot the policeman. All this was against Roy. But fortunately the Greek and told one obvious lie; that is, it was obvious to everybody except the Dayton police, the trial judge, who was prejudiced, and the biased jury. The Greek had said that after Roy shot the officer and ran, the Greek and run up to the officer and propped the officer up while the officer emptied the gun at the feeling Negro. The gun was empty, all the other shells having been fired. But that second shot had clipped officer's heart, which had made in five seconds and that it was impossible for the officer to fire a single shot after he was hit. We got medical authority to confound the Greek with the visiting N. A. A. C. P. officer made great use of this lie in a great mass meeting of white and colored people, showing that this Greek was a liar and that all his testimony might be false—and that it, was the Greek's testimony that the police had brought forward to send Roy to the chair. We argued that the Greek was trying to play the hero on the occasion, but for some reason was afraid to confess it in court. This lie was his undoing and our luck. We also went and hired a third lawyer, Albert Scharrer, who was perfectly willing to fight, Scharrer offered to accept manslaughter, however, which would have meant a few season in the penitentiary. But the police were so sure of their frameup that they refused any compromise short of first degree plea and life. We therefore went to battle, and a second jury of white men acquitted Roy Freeman. This is one of the most singular victories of our observation. It may pay to fight it out. SLAYER OF DANCER PLEADS NOT GUILTY (By: A. N. P.) NEW YORK. April 5—Mary Schneppa, white, 21-year-old common law wife of Seymour Irick, who is charged with shooting the latter in their apartment in the Bronx, pleaded not guilty to manslaughter. Tuesday. Larkin Wright, Employ ed by P.H. Greer for More Than Two Decades, Interviewed by Eagle Reporter In response to the request of those who are solitous for the welfare of P. H. Greer, candidate for the mayorality of Los Angeles, we have sought out and hereby present the following facts, which constitute an insight as to why we have proved a success in building up one of the great institutions of business of his own in this city, now offers his service to the people of this city to use the same genius in conducting their business. The findings herein demonstrate that Mr. Greer is thoroughly demo- cratie and is truly alive to the welfare of every citizen within the confines of our great city, from the humblest to the most exalted. "By their fruits ye shall know them" is an axiom which is indeed fitting to the situation which confronts us at this time with Mr. Greer in the stellar rule. If he has demonstrated the things worth while along the various lines of effort, without any thought or seeking the suffrage of his fellowman, he has surely qualified for the sincere and earnest consideration of all people who constitute his bailwick. With this thought in our minds we proceeded to gain first hand information to give to our readers to assist them in coming to their own conclusion in the premises. For be it known when a person aspires to become the executive head of any city, county, state of even nation, it is but natural that the citizens thereof will. If interested as they should be, seek to find out all about such a person and thereby be better enabled to make up their minds, for the individual they would desire to cast their vote. More especially does this situation apply to a great and growing municipality such as ours. With this proposition in mind and cognizant of the fact that Mr. Larkin Wright has for many years been one of the employees, of Mr. Greer, we sought him out as perhaps the most suitable person within our span from whom to gain first hand the information sought about P. H. Greer, as to his capacity and desirability to serve all of the people regardless or religion, race or creed as chief executive of this great and growing city. Mr. Wright has been an employee on the Greer-Robbins Company for four years, since he joined happily with his family at 882 East 350¹ Place. On inquiring of the exact time which he had worked for the Greer Robbins Company, he informed us that June would be the 21st anniversary of the date on which he became an employee of the above firm. "I started with no knowledge of any skilled work," he said; "and today I can qualify as an expert in the automobile business, and have demon- The Southern California Alumni Association announces its tenth annual Declaration Contest to be held Friday Evening, April 26th at 8 o'clock at First A.

GRACE COMEAUX, Publicity strated the same to the satisfaction of my employer, Mr. P. H. Greer, who gave me this opportunity. "It was knowledge I gained here, that I was chosen and loaned by the firm of Greer-Robbins to drive the famous Economy Yosemite Test in 1917, with a Chalmers 6-30 as pilot car, piloted the way to all crack drivers. "Eight months after going to work with Mr. Greer, the keys to the building were intrusted to my keeping. I was in absolute charge, on all Sundays and Holidays, taking in and caring for all receipts. "Starting to work as wash rack man and janitor, I was soon promoted to delivery man and teaching to drive. Then to picking up all repairs, strating to repair and repair buildings." In commenting on this feature Mr. Wright remarked that he has never failed to start any machine he was sent out for. He was assigned to superintend the unloading of all cars. Following this position he was assigned to the delivery of all new cars. At present Mr. Wright is in charge of the unloading of cars, with an average of 10 carloads per day, with a force of 6 men under his direction. He is the oldest employee in the point of service and one of our group who speaks with equally as much enthusiasm for fair treatment and opportunity for advancement made possible by this firm. Others who are well known and whom we will treat in another issue. Of course there were many side issues in our conversation with Mr. Wright which would satisfy and appreciate the sincere devotion for his employer, and the reason why all of them are so anxic for all the people to know just what sort of man they are employed by. Mr. Wright is not asking for any person to vote for his employer. His only effort is to have the people to know who Mr. Greer is, and he is satisfied if the people could but know him there would be no question of their verdict. All people contacting Mr. Greer can rest assured of a square deal and as stated many workers of our group have all been given an opportunity by Mr. Greer. This article therefore explains the reason why such a furore of favorable comment has in evidence after putting the account in the California Eagle of the number of colored men employed by Mr. Greer with the length of service and etc. We were further informed by Mr. Wright that the number of colored employees published in said article, is far more than the number given out that as a matter of fact they nearly double the number published. Therefore in this situation, as to Mr. Greer we have the low down as well as insight into the methods of one of the leading mayorality candidates, and can judge him accordingly. Ketchum, Cheatum, True To Form ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., April 2nd. (By The Associated Negro Press). Nicholas Cheatum of 1416 Baltic Ave. and Frank Cheatum of 312 Artic Ave. were hailed before Magistrate Joseph Farrell. Friday night charged with maintaining nuisances. They were held under $2,000 each for the grand jury as the investigators of the many complaints of persons who have caused a series of recent raids staged by the local and Federal police. "This will be the last time you'll catch'em and cheek'em," the judge remarked, as he turned the case over to the county. BONELLI DEMANDS OSTER OR MEN FIGURING. IN BATE BRUTALITY CASE While the Police Commission was debating for the fifth time today on just what should be done about the notorious Bate police brutality case, the City Council, assembled just one floor above the heads of the commissioners in the City Hall, was listening to a resolution introduced by President William G. Bonell, which: 1. Denounces the commission for vacillating. 2. Demands the immediate discharge or the four officers—William John, J. K. Caris, G. E. Ruppers and James K. Jester—who are charged with having so brutally beaten James Bate, an aged Negro deputy sheriff, that he died as the result of his injury. 2. And finally, instructs the police and fire committee of the council to launch an all-embracing probe into seat portion or Chief James E. Davis' report which informs the Police Commission that the rank and file of the department is about to be assessed to pay the $2000 damage award levied against the officers in favor of Bate's widow by both the superior and supreme courts of this state. RANK AND FILE GOOD "the 98 per cent of clean, courteous and courageous officers making the rank and file of our police department should never be called upon to pay the debts or punishments of an unscrupulous, bullying few." Bonelli declared today. "it is bad enough that the majority of the men on our force have to stand up under the odium brought upon the department through mismanagement and the brutality of a few. Why the Police Commission has not ordered the chief to fire these men long since is beyond me." While Bonelli's resolution, was being read in the council the police commissioners were gather in their room to consider "what action to take." The entire case, which has been reviewed by each commissioner individually, and by the commission collectively, was again rehashed today. The facts, as adduced by two courts and the affidavits of material witnesses, were shown to be as follows: CASE REVIEWED On the night of September 19, 1923, James Bate, old and trusted employee or the county, was assaulted by five men who later were identified as the four officers and Lewis Finesliver, who has since left the department. Failing to secure redress from the chief chief of police or the commission, the late John W. Kemp, acting as Bate's coyote, chained, before Bate was arrested. Bate who awarded Bate $2515 damages, and who awarded Bate $2515 damages and called the five officers "cowardly contemptible vermin." Bate died two months later after a long illness believed to have been brought on by the beating, and the officers applauded the case. On February 15 of this year the supreme court upheld burnell's decision, declaring that the five men were guilty of an unwarranted, inexcessive and cowardly assault upon an innocent man. LOT OF APPLESAUCE Several sessions of the Police Commission have been occupied with the case, but President of the Commission, Dell Schweitzer called it all, a lot of newspaper, talk. The constitutional-rights committee of the Bar Association investigated, and Cuter Davia was asked to report "findings" to the commission Tuesday. His report whitewashed the four men and told of the proposed assessment. Commissioner W. G. Thorpe called the report a lot of "applesauce" and the commissioners voted to talk it over again today. Bonell's resolution concludes with the following paragraphs: "Now, therefore, be it resolves, that this City-Council, feeling itself representative of the attitude of the people of Los Angeles, hereby de- Sunday's offering at the regular meeting of the local N.

A. Eventing Express, Thurs. April 4, 1929 MEDA. Pa. April 7. (By The Associated Negro Press). Clem Tuck, age 95, who was a slave in Virginia during the "dark days", was unable to convince the judge here Wednesday morning that the bottle of gin which was found in his possession was for "rubbing purposes" and he was fired $100 and costs. Friends of the aged man palp, heine and he left the court room with his wrinkled face wreathed in smiles. WH.LE SEATED at breakfast last Wednesday morning, I tuned in on my radio at random; somehow hoping that I would get something that would be in accord with my attitude of mind, for at that time, I was thinking of my mother, who but a few months ago was separated from me by a long stretch of land, mountains and streams; but now, had crossed the "Great Divide" from which travelers ne'er return; when a soprano voice or great range yet softened with a mellow touch of what is called by some religious ferver pealed forth with-that "Old Rugged Cross." And then I reasured as never before what Christianity means to a nation, a race, or an individual. Truly it carries with it the appeal to emotion, but above all it calls forth the most beautiful and sublime that is within the thought range of man. ON THIS particular morning of which I speak, I can only relate what the rendition by my unknown friend meant to me. I could see HEK—my mother—at the foot of the hill. Around her head was an halo of light, and on her face a smile. She had laid aside the old rugged cross for a crown of glory. The radiance of her perfect beauty was not marred; but somehow, to me, a bit saddened, as she looked up at that last look or yearning for those she her brow; for I saw in those eyes a bad left behind. Something within said write a poem but like Cadman, I answered, cannot sing. These lines just came and whether they provoke laugater or tears from you, just suffer me here and now to dedicate them to my sister Lillian who loves as I do: I know there are angels—yes, I do; For I set one day and Mystery soon retreat— Leaving only a hope that some day we will meet. SOME SAY that we should not agitate. Eut what is good for the goose should surely be good for the gander. Agitation overthrew the terrestrial Russian Government and built a new regime. Made Pagan Japan a civilized nation, and brought about a world war between the European nations because of territory in Africa wanted by them all at once and the same time. HARRY BURKE, last Monday evening while speaking before an organization which has as its motto: "Keep certain sections white", which, by the way, are always the best sections, said, "I have nothing in particular against the Negroes, I believe, however, that we should organize against their invasion into our section, and 'wish to God they would organize." THE BROADWAY Business Association of which Mr. Burke is a part, meets every other Monday night at Rhodes Hall, 5428 S. Broadway, and has as its object keep all those from St. to Vermont, Santa Bara to Manchester and East Main to Slaunion, white. The organization has out sixteen workers every day circulating a petition, and they reported on last Monday evening that they were meeting with wonderful success. Mr. Cole Sally, also an enthusiastic worker in the "keep white" organization, who was also a speaker at the meeting, said that "Our next big job is to segregate the public school of California. THE SABIE ESONS of California should organise against this an American propaganda that is being cooked by crooked write politicians, such as Harry Burke, Councilman candidate from the 8th District, which houses a good sprinkling of colored voters, and Cole Saly, politically poor and otherwise rich only in race hatred and color prejudice. THE AVERGE NEGro does not care whether he next door neighbor is whiten, black red or yellow, in home building—he wants what he is able to purchase. THE POOR WHITE man seems to think that the color of his akht is the only price required of him in whatever he desires. IT SEEMS hard for him to realise that it is high time that he should get this fool notion out of his head. Continued On Page Eight Editorial MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION MODERN TRADING SIMPLEST The retail price of any commodity must recompense the producer of the raw materials, the transporter of those raw materials to the factory, the manufacturer of the finished product, the distributor of the finished product among retail stores. In each step there is labor and capital to be rewarded for services rendered. Mines, factories, large farms and stores are but a, few centuries old. Transportation facilities for commerce are older. Colonial America depended in the main upon family-independence. There was no commerce between towns and but little between settlers in any one colony. There were few imports and little trading and merchandising. Each family made its own shoes, cloth, clothing, furniture, house and raised its own food. Trading was chiefly in gun powder and tea. Every public school pupil remembers stories in the school histories of the handcraftmen of the Old World. Where commerce existed at all it was single-exchange between producer and consumer. As centuries passed there were traders on land and sea who bought up the products of one country to sell them in another. How much easier it is today. The modern store has reduced the entire process to one step for the consumer at merely the cost of the service. THE GLADSOME SEASON When a warm sun shines in April young and old-are of one mind. The desire to get outdoors is universal. While the call may differ widely, it is to the open air. The farmer is reminded of plowing and of getting ready to put in the crops. To the surburbanite it may mean cleaning off the garden patch. To others it speaks of golf. To the school-boy the ball ground beckons. When it is pleasant to be outdoors we feel that it is good to be alive. A warm sun compensates for many cold and stormy days. A measure of frost is good for us. It quickens us, and it makes us prize the more the opposite when it comes. In modern life there is so much artificiality that we might forget how our forebears lived did not the spring urge remind us that we have not outgrown entirely the delight with which they welcomed the return of the sun so that they might emerge from their crude habitation. We have overcome many former unpleasant features of life, but the joy with which we welcome the passing of winter is a resurgence of the feeling that beat in the breast of some barbaric granddaddy of long ago. He could be warm again without effort and was glad. In this age, while we may greet the return of the sun for a different reason, we are glad, too. ESSENCE OF GENIUS More than 200 years ago, Sir Newton died. One mark of his genius was that he seemed never to have suspected himself of being in the least different from the general run of mankind. Honors came to Sir Isaac in ample measure, even in his lifetime. He called them symbols of good luck or mere rewards of industry and patience. Modestly, he compared himself to a hoy gathering pebbles on the shore of the vast, unknown ocean of truth. But mere patient industry, that familiar infinitude of pains, does not adequately label the springs of this mah's genius. As a biographer puts it: "We must surely add in extreme measure the much rarer capacity for not taking pains or wasting time over lines of thought that lead nowhere, the capacity of choosing the right course by a clear vision emanating from sound knowledge." Few human beings fail to suspect themselves at some period of their lives of being geniuses. Although the idea languishes with time, as so many genial illusions are likely to do, guishes with time, as so many genial illusions are likely to do, called genius really is and about why it happens. Until the genius of the discoverer of the law of gravity was diagnosed, this thing called genius was defined as an infinite capacity for taking pains. The difference between the genius and the plodder seems, therefore, to be that genius has the gift of knowing what to take infinite pains in doing or seeking after. JUDGE HARDY'S TRIAL Starting Monday Judge Carlos Hardy will face the highest court in the state which consists of the State Senate sitting as a high court of impeachment to answer charges filed against him at the instance it is said of the local Bar Association. There has been much beating of drums and unseemly bally hoo in this situation. It is even hinted that the prosecutors consisting of five members of the Assembly will try the Aimee McPherson case over again before the high court of impeachment. Be that as it may, powerful influences are behind the movement to oust poor old Judge Hardy from office, for the alleged acceptance of a gift while a judge oftheSuperior Court of this county. Aside from the effort to carry out the mandate of the Bar Association, there seems to be a deal of acrimony, hate and prejudice. There also seems to be undue aggressiveness by some of the Assembly managers. Some say there is plenty of of play for the calcium light. In the meantime the Bar Association which is behind the whole proposition to oust the judge, has no claim upon the affections and devotion of the plain, common, everyday people and if it were the people who were to render the verdict in this case it would rest with Judge Hardy. They know of his sympathetic attitude to the persons fartherest down and know that it has always been one of his hobbies to help and assist every human being who could not help himself. In the present situation we are of the opinion that if he has acted wrongly it was purely technical and all of this high-powered prosecution is undeserved. The echoes from president Hoovers pronouncement relating to the reorganization of the Republican party in the south have been many and varied. The tones of many of the comments by group leaders have been softened for fear of loss of imaginary prestige. But the facts remain that the edict has gone forth and all people must govern themselves accordingly. If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened "Hoarse cries, clutching, gesticulating hands, physical combat, torn clothes and disheveled hair, panting and perspiring men who shriek and scramble—" What is it? Is it the burning of Rome, or the fall of Troy—or, possibly, is it the first battle of Bull Run? Is it Verdun? Or a battle in Mexico's latest war? It seems that it is none of these. It is part of a sentence in a New York newspaper describing a session the other day in the New, York stock exchange, the panting and perspiring citizens mentioned being merely dignified and sagacious gentlemen of Wall street in the act of making a dollar or two to keep a roof over their heads and a crust on the table. He isn't a born conservative unless he feels apologetic when turning-out a great man's speech. COMMENTS A determined drive for the abolishment of capital punishment in California is being made. The members of the Legislature, now in session, are being importuned and propaganda for the abolishment of the death penalty is being mirculated freely. Prior to the execution of murderers, who have paid the penalty for their crime of murder, the office of the Governor has been besieged by well meaning men and women asking for clemency or a revocation of the court decision. The Executive has always been very patient and humanely inclined, but unless there was evidence introduced to warrant such, the decree of the courts were allowed to stand. The propagandist for the repeal of the law authorizing the death penalty, always on the alert to seize an opportunity to strengthen their plea. It was claimed that there was some doubt as to the guilt of Thomas. The claim was made that the only eye witness to the tragedy had been murdered shortly after, and that her testimony might have been somewhat perjured. The matter came to the attention of Assemblyman Roberts who immediately got in touch with the office of the Governor and was furnished with every opportunity for a through investigation of the evidence. Cold facts much outweigh sentimentalityy, and until there is a different law covering the punishment for the deliberate taking of human life, the gallows will be the ultimate end of the murderer in California. Easter: The day which commemorates the resurrection of earth's Greatest Teacher; has come, passed, and the ultra religious men and women, who have picked out special days to show their devotion, resumed their schedules of selfishness and human hates. The words of the lowly Nazarene; words of love and good will to all men, will have, in the mad whirl of strife, be forgot. The more the pity that the teaching of Jesus which is intended for the guidance of our lives daily can only find periodical callender days for their observance. How desestable in His sight must be that man and woman who are but "white sepulchres" in their manifestation of religious piety. I heard a man say that, "All Fridays were 'Good Fridays' to him and every Sunday and 'Easter' because, as a preceptor, he tried to follow the mandates Jesus every day." That man is not a religious man in the church going sense. He has neither dogma nor creed, but in trying to live in the atmosphere the Golden Rule and trimming his life each day to the dictates of his conscience as guided by that rule, he is deemed an example of what Jesus would have men be to reallize His Kingdom here on earth. Muchado is being made about President Hoover placing the federal patronage, in the South, in the hands of the "Hoovercrats." Which, by the way, is the term given the democrats who while retaining their party allegiance in local affairs, are demanding and receiving recognition from the "Republican" administration. Because they would rather stomach anything of any party, rather than a Roman Catholic, as we predicted Mr. Hoover is in duty bound to recognize those adherents. The fight which for years has been waged between the two factions: Lily whites and Black and Tan Republicans, for the privilege of the distribution of patronage, has been won eventually by the Lily whites and as far as the "Tan" are concerned, will have as much to say as to "Who is who" at the pie counter of the present administration, as the mythical king of Timbuctoo. It has ben one of the banes of southern politics; This bringing to the fore of the question of race and color. The contest in every National Republican convention has had the question of race and color injected and brought to the fore as a political issue. Very often the pleadings and concessions of Race politicians to keep their hold on the political pulse and distribute crombs have been a nauseous dose for the self respecting of the Race to swallow. There is a readjustment of the political leadership taking place. A leadership will gain entrance to the inner councils the elective route. They will be responsible to none other than those who elect them. Not being under obligations to any appointing power: they will not be obliged to "Kow Tow." Investigations and impeachments are running their little course. They appear to be the fad. The city or state which has not impeached, or brought to trial for impeachment, its mayor, governor or some one one of the prominent personages, is sadly behind the parade. Even the governor of Louisiana, Huey Long, has had nineteen charges submitted by the Louisiana legislature. One charge is a conspiracy to murder. In the present political upheaval nothing is safe from the whims of the enemy. Character assassins have no hesitancy in the making of charges, even though those charges have small chance of being proved. They place dependence on the part of the public to remember the accusation but forget the acquittal. In a statement, Governor Long accuses the Standard Oil Company as the engineers of the impeachment proceedings. It is his claim that the Standard has a political strangle hold on the State of Louisiana, and that his recommendation to tax them resulted in trying to have him removed from office because of his antagonism to their political policies. If we are to judge the outcome of the impeachment by the trend of public opinion in Louisiana, it will prove a decided "DUD." It is alleged that one of the biggest and financially, strongest of the Negro fraternities has uncovered a shortage of $50,000 squandered through the mismanagement of its officers, or used to promote candidacies and elections to renumerative positions. It would be too bad such matters have to be aired in the courts. But if such proceeding has to take place, and that will be the only way to cut loose the blood sucking tenacles of the octopus, the sooner the better. For more than a quarter century we have watched that order grow. From a pulling babe in the swaddling clothes of fraternalism to its present majestic proportions. It weathered the storm of internal strife and out-rode the troublous sea of color discrimination. It was fathered by unselfish men who placed the welfare of humanity before that of selfish gain. Like all lucious fruit it attracted the seek of self and very soon it was prey for every self-seeker who claimed some financial deficit for the institution or other objective which he was promoting. When the preacher or whatever he was, received his stipend all that you would be able to see was the end of the tail coat making a hasty exit. It it alleged that that was the "pay off" for influence used in electing the grand head of the order. Be that it may, we are sorry and firmly trust that matters will finally be adjusted to the satisfaction of the thousands of members. Here is a funny one. Succumbing to a sudden illness brought on by over-study, Miss Alice E. Smith, a Sacramento girl died at her home. She was an honor student at Mills College. Neither the illness nor the result which followed would have been noticeable were it not that a further announcement stated that the service would be held under the direction of a religious body which does not believe in medical treatment. A young boy near to us had an ulcerated tooth, and he was suffering terribly. He was being brought up with that theory of will predominance. And he would exclaim midst the throes of excruciating agony, "Go! Go away Error; You got no business here." Every person was admiring the fortitude and faith exhibited by the youngster as an example of "Trust and Faith." For days that youngster suffered and they would not even allow a plaster to be put to his face. One bright day he was given a ride to a dentist who removed the unruly molar. He was given strict orders not to divulge the source of his easement, and as it was the rule never to speak of mortal pain or sickness, it was quite an easy matter to keep quiet. But here is the point. The dentist said, "Had that tooth gone much longer there would have been an infection, which, causing blood poisoning, would probably have caused his death." POLITICAL POT PIE They are off! The official marathon up to the primaries is on in earnest. Some of the entries are bunched, others neck and neck while others are hopelessly in the rear. The horses however have just started and in our next issue we will endeavor to give the standing at the quarter. Added support to Lester K. Rice-Wray in his campaign for election as Councilman from the Eleventh District was offered this week when E. J. Gorenson of Mar Vista announced that he has withdrawn from the council manic race, and with all his backers, will support Candidate Rice-Wray. Rice-Wray. This agreement between us and my withdrawal will insure him practically the entire vote of the Mar Vista Neighborhood. I have always been a Rice-Wray booster and I entered the race this year only because it was felt that we needed a more personal representative. How ever now that we understand each other, I will do all that I possibly can to see that he is again elected Councilman from the Eleventh District." Following Sorenson's withdrawal and his pledge to support Rice-Wray, a large number of property owners, business and professional men and club and civic leaders in the district also pledged their support to the candidate and began the formation of several organizations through which they will aid him in his campaign. Among the prominent business, and civic leaders who have volunteered their support are Earl W. Porter, manager of the Venice Branch of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce; Chas. E. Donivan, president or the Dinker Avenue Improvement Association and Mrs. Donnie D. Hawley, secretary of the Centinellad Woman's Club. That the voters shall decide at the May 7 ballot wheather or not that portion of Sunset Boulevard lying between Hollywood Boulevard and Main Street be changed to Hollywood Boulevard and definitely decide the matter which has been before the City Council off and on since 1923 was suggested in a resolution placed before the Council by Councilman Douglas E. Foster. The resolution was drawn up after the Councilman had received a large petition from property owner requesting that the change be made. He said that there were many property owners on the boulevard who would be affected by the change and that Friday, April 5, 1929 ERWIN P. WERNER Criminal prosecution of unscrupulous men who attempt to extort money from small home owners through loopholes in the special improvement assessment system, is advocated by Erwin P. Werner, leading candidate for city attorney. Werner, now chief or the state inheritance tax department offers to the taxpayers of Los Angeles relief from lien sharks and a common sense method of assessment which will result in lower costs of special improvements. Non partisan and non political administration of a city department in which politics should never be permitted to enter, is promised by Werner. On conducting the affairs of the inheritance tax department, Werner has come in contact with most of the leading Nepali who have the power to have given him their unqualified endorsement in his present race. For 13 years Werner has practiced law in Los Angeles. He has been a president of this city since he was nine years or age. His education was obtained in the public schools and the University of Southern California where he starred in track and football. Werner is a soldier, veteran of the famous Ninety-first division. He is married. Lafayette players Demonstrate Rare Spectacle In Current Play "Potash And Perlmutter" The regular Lincoln Fans and others who were there only for the occasion, had occasion during the presentation of the current comedy farce, 'Potash' And Permutter, to witness something unusual, that or an entirely Jewish Play, played by all Negro actors. They played ti jam up. The jesticulations and dialect was unimpeachable. It was exact. It was very easy to forget that, the actors were colored. The play was amusing and interesting. The players were in the height of their glory and the nitely crowds did not hesitate to display their appreciation, with continuous applause. The show certainly clicks in clock fashion. We do not fail to thank, and in various other ways 'show Mr. Robt Levy, the manager and producer, our deep gratitude for bringing these high-class people and these celebrated stage hits, to Los Angeles. Thanks. Chas Olden and Edward Thompson, essay the title roles. And How! They're too clever, Miss Evelyn Preer is the heroine. The fashion show proved huge box office attraction.

THE COLORED PEOPLE in the State of California should get in behind the local branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and make them the mouthpieces in the local courts and in the State Legislative halls. DETROIT, Mich., March 30. (By The Associated Negro Press). The West Side Improvement Association, an organization that looks out for the welfare and seeks ever to improve the conditions of the group here in every phase or its endeavor, has succeeded in placing two Negroes as clerks in one of the Kroger chain stores here. For more than a year this association has been ceaseless in its efforts to have a Negro placed as "manager" in this particular store which is in a decided neighborhood whereupon 90% of the trade of this store is course, colored. "While we did not succeed in getting the place as manager," said William D. McDaniel, president of the Association, "we will, as soon as the full time clerk becomes thoroughly conversant with the system Kroger store management, have him elevated to that position." Helen Hunt Jackson Branch Library The popularity of the Negro in fiction during the past few years has had one unfortunate result in the appearance of many sensational novels which ride the crest of the wave few months and then sink into obscurity when a more startling story comes out. But now and then the critic can find hope in a book of real worth comes out. Such a novel was "The Walls of Jericho," by Rudolph Fisher; and the newest addition to the ranks of the really good books is Jessie Redmond Faust's "Plum Bur." Angela Murray, the heroine of this story, begins her life with a false sense of the advantages of her light skin and finds that her promising career in art is much easier when her teachers and friends regard her as white. This realization of the social advantages of color leads her to pass as white in New York, and she becomes so involved that she is led to die cruelly or denying her own sister. But though she seeks happiness, she fails to find it, in the end she learns racial pride. She discovers that what her wise mother said years earlier was true after all: that "Life is more important than color." The plot is most interesting, but the art of the novel lies in the excellent character study of the people in its pages. They are drawn from the inside with unerring skill, and they become very real to the reader. They are all of them individuals first and Negroes afterwards; and they are vividly alive to the reader. To those who are surfeited with the cheaper and more sensational novels which have flooded the market, "Hum Bun" and "Mamba's Daughters" by DuBose Heyward, can heartily be recommended. Both novels can be found at the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch Library. Popular Theatre Cashier Successful in Lawsuit Mrs. Marie O. Carter, popular and attractive cashier at the Lincoln Theater, and her husband, Alfred E. Carter, well-known Legionnaire, successfully defended a suit brought against them by a carpenter who had done work on their home. Although the services rendered were of very poor and unworkmanlike quality and had to be done over by others, the carpenter seemed to have a fair chance of collecting by court action. However, the case was beaten by the admissions of the workman himself, and of his witnesses, under the severe cross-questioning of the Carter counsel, Attorney Leon Whitaker and by the very outspoken testimony of Mr. and Mrs. Carter. Chicago, April 1.—(By The Associated Negro Press.) Three influences are contributing to cause a mild state of alarm among Negroes since the announcement of the new policy of the Republican party in the South was made by President Herbert Hoover early in the week The first and most important of these influences is the interpretation put upon the President's utterance by a certain section of the white press. Writers in these newspapers have stated rather definitely that the intention of the President is to ultimately chase the Negro out of the Republican party. The effect of such statements, supported by such evidence as these writers are able to assemble, is to bring into action the perpetual dread among Negro voters, South and North, of the building up of a so-called White-Republican party in the South still possessed from its councils. The third influence grows out of whatever remaining power the Negro Republican leaders in the South still possesses and may be welded, either to justify their past policies or to embarrass the new ones of the administration. The highlights of the Hoover statement, in which no reference to race or color was made, were that in a number of the Southern states the Republican machinery was in need of reorganization, by the people of those states. The President declared: First, that in Mississippi, Georgia and South Carolina, patronage abuses had been so great, especially in the postal service, that the administration had lost confidence in them. He suggests that the people of those states, without regard to color, attempt reorganization, and in the event they cannot initiate a better organization through the leadership of men who have the power to govern the public service, the different federal departments will be compelled to adopt other methods to secure advice as to the selection of federal officials. Second, that Republican leadership in Alabama, Arkansas, Texas, and Florida has in recent times shown increasing strength and is now renderable and conscientious service in maintaining whole organization under whose advice the appointments to public office have steadily improved. Third, that Republican leadership in the border states (Kentucky and Tennessee, Oklahoma) and in Virginia and North Carolina has long since built up vigorous party organization which assures Republican representation in the Congress from these states. Thus the President expresses his disapproval or the Republican party management in South Carolina which has Joseph Tolbert, a white man, as its leader and places the stamp of his approval on Tennessee where Robert R. Church dominates the Republican political scene. Negro political leaders seem a bit wary about expressing themselves at this point, although there seems to be a rather well defined feeling that the Hoover manifesto, if it was not intended and is not intended to erect additional political barriers in the Negro's path, will serve as an opening wedge in his more general distranchissement in the South and to his enjoyment of a greater share of political benefits because of the value that he may be to either of two strong political parties. The Associated Negro Press sent the following telegram to a number of Nesro leaders: "Please send statement expressing your opinion of President Hoover's announcement regarding present Republican organizations in Mississippi, South Carolina and Georgia, and other Southern states. Would appreciate your discussing possible effect on Negroes generally, but in South particularly." The message was sent to Dr. R. E. Moton principal of Tuskegee institute, Harkness Hill, for the coloured vote division during the recent campaign; Robert R. Cecruth Tennessee Republican leader; Perry W. Howard, Republican National Committee.eman for Mississippi; Mrs. Mary Booze, Republican National Committee woman for Mississippi; Mrs. George S. Williams, Republican National Committeewoman from Georgia; Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, editor of the Crisis. Three days later, and at the time this dispatch is being written, replies are still being awaited. One comes MAGAZINE SECTION Kelley's Discounts Bring Inquiries From All Over the U. S. The flood of letters received by the Kelley, establishment in the last few days, indicate the entire country has indicates that the entire country has been set awhirl by the appearance of medium priced and fine cars in the market at tremendous discounts. Of particular note are the six-cylinder and eight-cylinder, the very latest model Chandlers, offered at discounts of $300 to $800 off the list price. Not only letters, but also long distance calls from points hundreds of miles away, continue to storm in, requesting more information; also orders are being received by mail, and arrangements are made immediately to ship the car to the point designated. Requests for information from practically every state in the Union are at band, rancher, living in the wilds of the country, or a state he was considering forsaking his pony for the more modern mode of travel, and asked for a price list of the various models. With the overwhelming amount of interest, created it is an almost certain that all records will be broken and a new world's record for merchandising automobiles established, that will stand for years to come. Many customers are availing themselves of this opportunity to trade in their old "jellopy" on a brand new car at a discount, and at the same time receive full value for their caf. A visit to the trade-in lot reveals everything from a Rolls Royce to a 1915 Maxwell; practically every known car as far back as a 1905 model. In fact the trade-ins make up an automobile show, composed of cars that bring back memories of the days of long ago, everyone a trade-in on the last word in automotive transportation, the "Chandler," line for 1929. from Mrs. Mary Booze, and is as follows: "I have read the President's statement carefully and cannot see in it any good reason for general alarm on the part of the Negro race, either in the South on elsewhere in the nation. "The statement will naturally have a depressing effect upon the minds of most Negro leaders in the South until its real intent has had time to bear fruit." "While the action of the President will necessarily affect the prestige of a few leaders, this will be more than offset by the exercise of the franchise of the masses if he succeeds in his undertaking. "The President has undertaken a herculean task which many former Presidents have attempted and failed, but President Hoover is accustomed to make the difficult accomplishments, so it will not surprise if he succeeds in his undertaking to build up a militant Republican party in the South within the next four years. "I have full faith in the President's sincerity of purpose, and I am going to give his proposal my full support and co-operation." Mr. Church replied: "I do not care to make a statement just now." Congressman-elect Oscar DePriest, who visited Little Rock, Ark., and spoke there during the week, thought that, above all, the Negro in the South should sieve the opportunity to vote which the creation of a two party system would offer and use his ballot to put his white friends into office if he cannot vote Negroes in. Edward H. Wright, former Illinois commerce commissioner, was reluctant to express a criticism of the Hoover move, so long as the evidence of its color bias is so flatty. "Mr. Hoover said that he wished to give the Republican Party in the South a respectable leadership which would have the confidence of the people," asserted Mr. Wright. "He did not say whether this leadership must be white or colored, and in Tennessee, where the leadership is colored, he approved the Republican program, whereas he repudiated the white leadership of South Carolina. However, I have always been against the leadership we have had in the South which without controlling any votes, was enabled to exercise such a powerful influence in the party conventions." Just at the close of a beautiful and impressive Easter service at the People's Independent Church of Christ on last Sunday morning, Pros. Thomas Johnson delighted the audience with his rendition of "I'll Promise Thee." Mendelson's Wedding March was then played by Mr. Samuel Brown, while Miss Helen Beavers, Mald of Honor, attired in a beautiful orchid gown, carrying a bouquet of pink roses, orchid sweet peas and maiden hair fern, led the bridal procession. Mr. Frederick N. Clarke, the bridegroom and his best man, Mr. Henry Strickland wore correct English morning attire. Miss Addie Hutcheton the bride was charming in a beautiful gown of white georgette crepe and spanish lace She carried, a gorgeous bouquet of white roses; sweet peas and bridalleigh. Rev. N. P. Greggs, pastor of the church performed the very impressive ceremony. MRS. FREDERICK. N. CLARKE Immediately following the ceremony the bridal party was hurried to Hotel Sommerville where a sumptuous five course dinner awaited their arrival. A splendid wedding reception was tendered the bride and groom at the beautiful home of the bride's sister, Mrs. George A. Beavers, Jr. from for six days, while the bride than bride the groom, guest attended the afternoon. A beautiful solo "I Love You True!" was sweetly rendered by Miss Edna Hurd, Miss Marguerite Robinson also sang in a pleasing manner the solo "All For You."

Those assisting were: Misses Eydthe Smith, Marguerite Robinson, Quincella Nickerson, Jessie Mae Nickerson, Frances Curry, Odessa Curry, Eola Morris, Thelma Flechet and Edna Johnson. The presents were received by Mesdames Elmuya Long and Myrtle Wallace. The entire reception was in charge of Mesdames Ruth Fowler, Nettie Reece and Bertia Nickerson. Many beautiful and useful gifts were received. At 7:30 P. M. the weeding party left for Santa Monica where the happy couple will make their home.

POETRY and DRAMA of the COLORED RACE NEGRO POETS AND THEIR POEMS —Robert Thomas Kerlin, Rep- resentative poems by well-known Negro poets, together with their biographies and criticisms of their work. "LIGHTS OF NEW YORK," FIRST ALL-VITAPHONE TALKING PICTURE COMES TO THE TIVOLI THEATRE NEXT TUESDAY One of the most interesting stories that has come out of a studio in many a day is that concerning the filming of the intensely dramatic picture that is going to amuse people by the way Vitaphone brings out its dialogue in scenes that hold one appalibound thru their sheer power. In a way, the story is appropos of the fact that pictures, as well as plays, are not written. They are built. This may seem preposterous to the building playwright, but it is the truth. There are cases innumerable to prove it. Read Prof. Butler's "Technique of the Drama," or William Archer's "Play Making" and you will see the truth of this statement. For months Bryan Foy, one of the directors of the Vitaphone presentations made by Warner Bros. in their Hollywood studio, had an idea for a sketch he was anxious to make. It was something that would give him a great opportunity to bring out the powers of Vitaphone. He talked to Hugh Herbert and Murray Hoth about it and the result was that they turned over to him a terse story concerning a country youth who came to New York and fell among crooks. Just what Foy wanted. It would give him a chance to show Broadway and a night club with the kind of entertainment furnished its customers, usually composed of other country people in New York on a spree. The sketch would run about seventeen minutes. Foy, full of enthusiasm, took advantage of a full hit the studio to get his cast together and the sketch. He did it all in a day. That night he was to see the result in the projection room. He didn't wint anyone else to see it; in fact, he was a bit afraid. Hardly had the last fadeout passed when out of the darkness of the projection room came the voice of Jack L. Warner, whose presence was imminent. "Yoy," exclaimed, "Warner, you have here a scene with wonderful possibilities. It is really great. You've just scratched the surface of a tremendous story. Call in everyone and let us go to work on this and built it it out." Back came the authors to elaborate their story and in a week the little sketch Bryan Foy had tried to "snack" in an as experiment, had developed into a full-length picture. Scenes were built, additional accors were engaged and the work was the one topic of conversation throughout the studio. Almost until the end of the seventh reel had been reached, suggestions kept coming in that added to the effectiveness of the story. Finally the last accors were added, Jack Warner to tell him the picture was completed. "What picture?" inquired Warner, smiling. Foy instantly understood. In all the enthusiasm and all the work no one had thought of a permanent title for the picture. "Let's call it 'Lights of New York.'" exclaimed Warrior, and they did. Of all the pictures that have been made in Warner Bros. studios, it is PLAYS OF NEGRO LIFE—Alain Le-Roy Locke and Montgomery Gregory; Eds. A collection of plays about Negro Life, some of them by Negro playwrights. HARLEM SHADOWS—Gaude McKay, Poema portraying the spirit of the modern Negro with safety and depth of feeling. ALL GOD'S CHILLUN LUNG WINGS—Eugene Gladstone O'Nell. The disastrous consequences of the man raided of a colored man and a white woman, ending in the spiritual triumph or both of them. NEGRO POLK RHYMES—Thomas Washington Talley, comp. A collection of all the rhymes common among the Negroes of the South, with a treasure on their origin and development. These books may be borrowed from the Vernon Branch Library, 4504 Central Ave. As starling and frank in its discussion of intimate problems as "The Unborn" is the famous Lafayette Play, "Daming Goods" which comes to the Lincoln stage next Monday night has long been known to theatre-goers throughout the country as the most daring drama of its type ever written. "Damaged Goods" is to be presented for one week in the same staterling manner that has marked every production to be staged by the talent, Lafayette troupe. The play is such that positively no person under the age of 16 will be admitted at any performance, the management announces. However, it must not be supposed that "Damaged Goods" is merely another "sensational sex play." It has a real message for every man and woman in Los Angeles—a message, and a warning that cannot be ignored. The play, in which Richard Bennett was starred some years ago, deals with the ruthless spreading of syphilis by the thousands who get their way, ignoring the advice of medical authorities. "Damaged Goods" relates the story or "George Dupont," a wealthy young man of good faith, who is informed by his physician (that he must not marry for three or four years at least, because of the dreaded syphilis that must first be cured). Dupont, in a rage, refuses to heed the doctor's orders, and within three months he is married to the girl of his choice, "Henriette," his wife, knows nothing of his disease—until it is forcefully brought home to her shortly after the birth of their first child! Drama in its strongest form stalks throughout the three acts of "Damaged Goods." Edward Thompson has one of his greatest roles as George Dupont; a role that really gives him an opportunity to score in tense dramatic scenes. Evelyn Preer as Henkie, the wife, will be equally convincing and charming. And another very important and excellent portrayal will be offered by Lawrence Criner who is to play the doctor whose earnest pleasures are ignored by young Dupont (with such tragic results). Cleo Desmond will appear as the nurse employed by the Duponts to care for their baby, and whose health is jeopardized. Other important roles in "Damaged Goods" will be played by Bebe Townsend, Laura Bowman, Sidney Ripatrick, Monte Hawley, Charles Olden, Arthur Ray and Malcolm Patton. DR. J.

Annual City Championship Track Meet Next Week The annual city championship meet, the affair at which every local athlete has been pointing, occurs one week from Saturday. Therefore Thursday's meets should be productive of some excellent marks with every athlete just about at the peak of his form. Jefferson is favored over Manual Arts, while Los Angeles High should beat Lincoln rather easily. Los Angeles College of Law is adding five more classes for beginners on April 1. This will make a total of 72 classes in Law this term—the largest number of individual classes offered by any Lay School in California. Beginners' classes, at this time, become necessary because of the many requests from new students who wanted to start before the new Rules, proposed by the Board of Governors of the California State Bar, becomes effective on July 1, 1929. The office of the Registrar at 747 So. Hill street, will be open for enrollment between the hours of 9:00 A. M. and 8:30 P. M. IN APPRECIATION DR. H. CLAUDE HUDSON, Suite 7, Cosmopolitan Building, 843 Central Ave. Los Angeles, California. Dear Doctor Hudson: I want to thank you for your very kind and very valuable services in re- ferring my sister and me to attorney Leon Whitaker. My husband had never been in trouble before, and he was really not guilty of the charge against him, called "hit and run," because he drove away merely to escape injury at the hands of the threatening crowd that had gathered at the scene of the acci- dent. Furthermore, he had no idea that anyone was hurt, let alone sever- ely injured. However, he was arrested, put in jail, and accused of committing a crime; and, as he did not have a single witness in his defense, all the people who had seen the accident having refused to sign, things looked pretty bad for him. But, due to the breaking down of the accuser's case against my husband by Attorney Whitaker's questions to the witnesses for the prosecutor, he is free again, and back at his work; and I am grateful to you for it. Again thanking you, I am, Elect— Douglas E. Foster Councilman 12th Dist.

THIS IS YOUNG JACK THOMPSON CONGRATULATIONS—YOU WON FAIRLY and have my best wishes— Good Luck to You." This telephone conversation occurred when the colored contender called up the new welterweight champion last week after their historic, if disastrous-battle at the Chicago Colseum. A relative of Fields here received a letter from him relating the incident and praising Jack for his gameness. SO NOW THAT JACK ADMITS Fields to be the beat, no need to agitate for a third match between them. Let Jack rest. There are no albs to be made and the pang. did not make him lose. A lot of bettors lost money though, because of his over-confidence, just as they lost here when leaving for that, first battle in Frisco he waved to the cheering crowd, with their band and banners and shouted, "Good-bye folks, I'll be back after the fourth round!" WILSON YARBO DID NOT draw many colored fans to the Olympic, and matchmaker. Ward Wadhams asked why. In the first stage, some managers rest easy and let the match makers do all the huddling so half the colored fans and had seen Tarbo and the picture appeared in some of the papers. Besides, they get tired of seeing lambe led to the slaughter, and that is just what they thought: this thing would be. Not a dime was bet on him. Rumour says he spilled the bean! Good! As soon as we trace up the low-down on it we will tell it out loud for the good of the game. Readers frequently wonder why boxing and foot ball dart better than any other sport. Because it is the element of personal physical contest that always attracts the attention. Combat on gridiron, ring or wrestling mat, arouses the ages old fire in red-blended humans that has caused these contests to draw more each year. Yet good fighters without a following do not click. Jackie Fields never draws there. Colima always does. Yet now that Yarbo has licked Colima throughly and decisively, there is no reason why he could not be built into as big a drawing card as Bert. Smart managers like Wirt Ross, Windy Winser, Dutch Meyers or Jimmy Murray could do it. Then later, why not match him here with Mickey Walker who he smacked all over the canvass like Aunt Jemima's pancakes?

PLAYGROUND YOUTHJS ENTER JUNIOR OLYMPICS Junior Olympic Games than part of a Greater list of estates in the last year for the municipal playgrounds of Los Angeles was indicated when hundreds of boys hastened to sign up for the nation-wide competition at many playfields last week—the first week of registration. A larger number of entrants were received than during the first week of entry last year, causing Playground officials to predict a big Junior Olympic game. The public play centers were concerned. HYMNE MILLER GERERO ON MAIN STREET BILL! Saturday Main Street - Joe Guerrero vs. Tony Busso, six rounds; Manuel Trevino vs. Hymne Miller, four rounds; Faster Manalo vs. Kewple Hernandez, four rounds; Jim Martinez vs. Henry Manalo, four rounds; Tony Cardones vs. Vernon Gilt, four rounds; Howard Johnson vs. Jack Chevez, four rounds Extraordinary though it may be and though it is a middle fighting a light-heavy, yet there is as great excitement over the big classic at Wrigley Field, April 15th, as there was when Hudkins, fought Baker there. Seats are already going at a rapid rate, and large delegations will be in from other cities especially from Oakland and Frisco where Emanuel first smashed windows and noses as a kid. HUDKINS BREAKS BAGS "bag a bag," he says, a doctor away be he the "Wild Cat" motto for every day down at the Main St. gym he tears one of the big 200-pound sand bags and Carlo Curtis is almost frantle from buying new ones, but he cannot kick as a packed house sits and stands for hours every day to watch the determined "CAT," as he snarls, grunts and smashes up sparring partners and gym equipment. From Emanuel's camp comes news that he is faster and more scientific than ever and feels confident to be able to stave off the Nebraskan's leaps and rushes. Emanuel departed last week for Noah Beery's trout ranch, some 80 miles away. He may complete all his training for the Wildcat in the mountain resort. Hudkins will continue work at the Main street gym. The Nebraskan is in fighting testle already. His weight is just this side of 170. Santiago Zorilla and Tod Morgan Ready for Title Battle Four hours from the time we go to press the Junior Lightweight Cham- press the Junior Li lorship title will have changed hands or will still be in the possession of Tod Morgan, who has been carefully guarding it since it came into his ownership.

A long line of galley horses has already formed, but the rest of the house is practically sold out. The ret-battle Zorilla have been selected and the boys weighed in. Santiago Zorilla, the challenger, is under 120 pounds. He weighed yesterday before a group of newspaper men and boxing officials. The Panamanian tipped 123½ last Saturday. The bout is the first championship battle in this city since Fidel La Barba successfully defended his old title against George Rivers. The other title bouts were the Genaro-La Barba first at Ascot Park and the Pinkey Mitchell-Mushy Callahan battle at Vernon. Golf "Bugs" Gambol on Potato King's Estate Kansas City, Mo., Mar. 29. The golf bags or Kansas City and vicinity have not waited for the turf on the fairways of the Gove Center, Kansas, golf links to dry out good before taking up another season's play of the ancient Scotch game. The links, laid out last spring as an experiment, by the seven Kroos boys, sons of the late Kansas potato king, on a section of the huge farm owned by the family, proved so popular that improvements and additions are promised for the coming season. Large Sound Reports For Howard U Baseball Postponement of the game for the West Coast Championship at Parramatta between Neal Clifby and BeatCat Wright, instead of hurting it has only served to arouse more interest. It also prevents the heavy expense or attending a high-paid junior lightweight title bout and a heavyweight championship bout in the same week. The battles first for the 4th will now be held on the 11th and many admirers of the "California Thunderbolt" will journey by auto and train to see him mee. He ring giant, in a mighty tussle. Wright has never been seen in action here and fans are anxious to see him go on this match will practically settle who is the leading contender for the world's heavy title. COHAN USES MANY COLORED FIGHTERS Morrie Cohan, no doubt, holds the record for having given more famous colored boxers their early matches than any other local promoter as Baby Gans, Jack Thompson and other colored top-notchers did their early boxing there. He stages many mixed bouts as they draw well and wins, crashes, treating them with courtesy and consideration. A classy supporting card is lined up in addition to the unusual main event. Wright has knocked out Mack House and Willie Henry. He also claims a victory over Clisby. Clisby fought a draw with Wright two weeks ago, and he claims he will knock out the Bearcat when they meet for the championship at the Crown City Arena. He played a natural in Neal Clisby and Bearcat Wright, meeting for the coast colored title. Commissioner James Woods was informed by Cohen that he would withdraw until April 11, giving Olympic every advantage for the championship go. REMEMBER WHEN?— BUBBLES ROBINSON With hardly a mark on him to show for the many 20 and 25 round battles he fought in during those old terrific days, Bubbles Robinson now handling a thriving news stand business will be remembered by the old fight fabs. Bubbles beat more champions and near champions at the old Vernon Arena and in New York than any fighter of his time, but all were no decision bouts. Ad Wolgast, Joe Rivers, K. O. Brown, Dick Hylan, and a number of other famous men were trimmed by the speedy "Bubbles." St. Louis Stars and Monarchs Rivals in New York League According to the baseball situation in the Negro National League at present, is seems as if the fight for the pennant will be between Kansas City Monarchs and the St. Louis Stars. The Chicago American Giants, who for the last seven years, have been sworn enemies on the diamond to the Monarchs, have fallen by the wayside as a result of their losing most of their star players.

Lawrence Crimer, ably supported by the Entire Cast of Famous Lafayette Players Positively No Children under 16 Years Admitted to Any Performance During The Run of "DAMAGED GOODS" Sammy Jackson a Welter Champion Threat WILL CHALLENGE FIELDS SOON IT IS RUMORED While the walterweight championship mishandled by Joe Dundee is pretty well muddled up, the national and state boxing commissions will soon have to reckon with a colored fighter who in just about a year has climbed up into the ranks of the coast topnotchers at that weight. This is Sammy Jackson, a handsome Santa Monica boy who although fighting almost every week has only lost one or two battles and very few draws. In his most recent battles he has beaten Joe Remhardt, Jack O'Brien, Billy Clark, Sailor Jimmy Carter, Johnny Woods, Francis Burns, and two weeks ago that famous San Bernardino Mountain 'Lion' who starred a Wriley Field bout last year, Johnny Adams. One of Sammy's most memorable victories and one which drew a deal or attention to him was at the first of the year when he beat sailor Jimmy Carter just a week before Carter fought Gans at Pasadena. The terrific beating that the beach boy gave the sailor is said by experts to have softened him up for Gans. The referee gave Gans a technical knock-out victory, but for a fighter of Jacksons brief experience to do the same trick done by the clever, experienced veteran Gans, bears out the report that Sammy will issue a Challenge to Jackie Fields the recognized champion in a year or less. Swimmers Ready New York, (U.P.)—One hundred and fifty of the nation's leading swimmers are gathered here for the A. A.

(AP.)—Accused of causing a panic at the Fields-Thompson boxing match in the Coliseum, which caused the death of one person and serious injuries to a score of others, Kenneth Taylor, a former member of the charge of manlaughter, inciting a riot and varying concealed weapons. The case was continued until April 10 for an investigation. An 80-word telegram received here (Los Angeles) next day, stated that it was started by gangsters with money bet on the outcome, but later events proved that the fact or it being a mixed bout had nothing to do with. Baby Gans Hangs K. O. On Wagner New York, March 30. (AP)—Baby Joe Gans, California Negro, wolterweight, scored a technical knockout over Eddie "Kid" Wagner of Philadelphia in the sixth round of their ten-round main bout at the Olympic arena tonight. Gans had an easy time all the way, sending the Philadelphia to the floor for counts of nine twice in the opening round and once more in the third. A fourth knockdown came at the end of the fifth frame and although Wagner was able to answer the bell at the start or the sixth he was in no-condition to continue and the referee stepped in after a short time. Gans weighed 140 pounds, Wagner 136½.

The changing or date will not effect next week's Doyle card, as it was announced that the club would stage two 10-round bouts April 9.

Due to the unforeseen and tragic death of her two brothers within the same week, Mrs. Williams was away in Canada so the woman's quartet became a trio which would have done credit to any Grand Opera Company. By special request, Miss Lucky and Mr. Plant sang "Indian Love Call" from "Rose Mariel" in a dramatic and unique arrangement. The quality of the tones in Miss Lucky' voice as well as those of Miss Dobson have not been duplicated in any singer's voice that I have heard Especial attention should be called to the sweet whispering echo of Miss Dobson's voice which greatly reminds one of a voice from the heavenly choir Among the male voices, Messers Marwell and Plant, with excellent training to their credit have both a diversified and superb range of song types. Topping it all is, of course, Mr. Williams who, despite his 34 years of experience still, remains the grand old trooper that he has always been.

Never Registered! DIRECT FROM FACTORY MILDRED WASHINGTON and MARY RICHARDS+score tremendous triumph in their duet singing and dancing acts in current show this week at the Kentucky Club. This turn these clever young ladies do, is quite novel and most exacting. Both girls are clever acrobatic dancers, and this style with some clever tap dances, is the real cause of the act's success. The singing too, clicks. They're tight. NINA MAY McKENNA—continues to grow more attractive every day. Is it because the little featured lady of M. G. N.'s, al-colored cast movietone opus *Hallekjah* is emerging out of childhood, into womanhood? Or is it the fact that this beautiful California atmosphere has transferred some of its beauty to her? Probably both. However, this talented young lady continues to register her beautiful singing voice and clever dancing in the picture. Kid Vidor the director seems to be able to tell you the fact that he was able to get her from New York's latest musical hit, "Black Birds of 1928." She is tight. She has made a decided hit with the Junior set during her solour. DANIEL HAYNES—star of *Halleluja* is one of the highest principled professional actors, white or black, in America. He possesses the Summa character of a gentleman. He is always doing the manly thing without any ostentatious display. Everyone likes a man who is a man, because of the fact that it is many to be so. Haynes is such a man. He never boasts or brags of performing little acts that he is expected to perform. It was good to see him perform his Easter duties after the fashion of a good Catholic ar St. Patrick's Church. It is the writer's parish, and he was pleased at the quiet dignity of the distinguished actor. More of his type will do the profession good. **TB APEX CLUB—Now a place of real beauty, and popularity. Mr. Mosby, the genial proprietor of this modern mecca of fun, has inaugurated a program of improvement that is amazing many of the old patrons, by its dazzling beauty.** The improvements already noted are those limiting the bulky size of the establishment, without lessening the dance or seating space. It leaves an appearance, now, of snuggliness. He has removed many of the smaller tables, that usually seat four, and re- The Black Sport World By ART HAMILTON As we go to press, Santiago Zorrilla, the little brown boy from the Canal Zone, goes to the post to battle Ted Morgan, the world's Junior light weight champion for the title. Santiago enters the ring a slight favorite to beat Morgan, and if the workouts in the gym mean anything the Avenue will have a champ some time Thursday night. There are not many more dark boys that can claim championship rating now, that Baby Joe Gans and Black Jack Thompson have been taken out of the running by the new wetter-weight champ, Jackie Fields. Neil Kisby and George Godrey by riggs should be on the top in the heavyweight division, but none of the white boys that are on top will gaze at them. But they put them at the top if they aren't fighting. Kid Chocolate, the Cuban sensation, is about the only other dark skinned boxer that is getting the breaks and seems headed for Bnd Taylor's old bantam weight crown, with his long string of knobble victories Jimmy Black, Ed. Duvall's little champ in the making is not getting the breaks of the game by any means. Black fought Joe Salas at Wilmington last Wednesday night and lost the duke to the Mexican boy, when by all rights he should have won. In the first place Jimmy isn't fighting often enough to keep him on the old edge that is necessary for a boxer to get on in the game. Black was on the sick list for about three months and that meant no fighting and now that he is well his manager is not getting the fights for him that he should. Rather than fight his boy in a semi-windup at some of the clubs like San Berdoo and Pasadena, Duvall is keeping the boy idle and is losing both ways. Jimmy is one of the classiest boys at his weeble in California and should rate high up in fistic circles, but just placed them with some very cute boots. The insightly appearance occasioned by the unusually high ceiling, too, has been done away with. Beautiful streamers, resembling heavy finish velvet, hung in a clever fashion accomplishes that. The orchestra stand decked out in splendid array is the last word in artistic decoration. A hand painted picture or a life size figure hangs from one of the walls, has a value at this time of $300.00. These improvements will eventually knock a huge hole in two one-thousand dollar bills. As a rendevzcus for pleasure, loving people, the Apex Club now is a creditable institution. CAROLLENNE SNOWDEN—stages delightful chorus numbers for current fortnight show at the Apex Club. Her Gypsy number hits with a loud click. It is at the same time unique and highly entertaining. Not very often does a patron of a Nite club have the opportunity to enjoy the hibrancing acts, such is this particular number. Coincidid with its marvelous presentation, is the clever dancing of the chorus. BILLIE DUNN—Orpheum theatre favorite, draws huge crowd and thunderous applause, when he does a few of his numbers at the Apex Club, while guest of honor last Wednesday night. Billie Dunn is in the act billed Olsen and Johnson. His forte is songs in a marvelous baritone voice, and some original eccentric tap and soft shoe dancing. As an honor guest, he will always be welcome at the Apex Club. ETBIE BLAKE and BROADWAY JONES—Two of New York's own favorites return to L. A. after short turn over the West Coast Time up the Coast. This clever pair came here originally over the Orpheum time, with a red hot chorus in their act. They have since coming over on the West Coast time released the chorus. Their force is hoofing and singing and cracking wise. They're tight. Blake was formerly or the team of Sissle and Blake. They headquarter at the Hotel Somerville. CHAS. GILPIN—Noted Dramatic actor, is still in town. Met him the like in any other game that has the big money behind it you have to have a little pull, or better than that have a little do re me behind you, and since he hasn't shown us either, it is about time. Put Jimmy where he belongs by fighting him often and letting the fans see just what a whiz he is. I am writing this at the request of Black's many friends, who would like to see the kid take his rightful place among the boys at 120 pounds. San Berdoo offers an all-star card as we grind them on the press, with Johnny Adams the Mountain Lion and Young Sam Langford, the Avenue Clown. Adams hates Langford and claims that he can't fight a lick and he says that he is going to chase Sam out of the ring. Clarence Dumiyan, the Irish boy from San Francisco said that he would do the same thing, and he was a long way from it when the ten rounds were over. In this bout we have two boys that are direct opposites as to ring ability. The longer pure and simple and knows nothing better and in try to out-sug his opponent. While on the other hand Langford is a master boxer and can make the beer of them look sick when he stands shooting out that left and keeps moving about, so that the other fellow doesn't anything to shoot at. As stated before, Sam could really amount to something in the game if he took it seriously, and would cut the clowning when he has a boxer at his mercy. Sam will fight when he is compelled to, but when he sees that he has a snap before him he will play around and do everything that a real fighter should not do. Up to date the Mountain Lion has not defeated a black boy in the ring and it is up to Langford to keep that record clean. "The Gaucho" starring Douglas Fairbanks coming to the Gayetty Theatre, 4th and Central, Sunday and Monday. April 7-8 is one of the famous star's later releases. It is a story of early Spanish chivalry and is full of action as only our "Doug" can make it. Flery passions and fighting galore abound in this great picture. Mr. Fairbanks introduces a new leading leg in this "Doug" tale, who is fast becoming one of the screen's greatest personalities. "Dancing Daughters" will be shown at this theatre Tuesday and Wednesday, April 9-10 also. Every mother and daughter should see this great picture as well as the "Gaucho."

SANTA FE WAITERS TO HAVE NEW HOME Dining Car Waiters in the employ of Fred Harvey on The Santa Fe Railroad, probably will move in to new quaters according to rumors that are prevalent in railroad circles. A If You Fall To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened contract covering a period of five years was negotiated between Dr. J. A. Somerville formerly owner and General Manager of the Somerville Hotel and Mr. J. Sullivan Local Commissary Agent, since the Lincoln Hotel Company has assumed the management of this potential hotelier there seems to be a desire on the new management part to not transfer this contract as the hotel is doing such business that more money can be obtained from transient and commercial business that necessitated uffiling the space that is now being occupied by Mr. Fred Boye. SANTA FE AND S. P. IN-ROW Reports that a railroad war between the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railroad was precipitated by the Santa Fe's recent purchase of the Central Manufacturing district. The point of contention that seems to exist between the Central Manufacturing district and the Los Angeles Union terminal belonging to the Southern Pacific corporation is the question of whether produce should be sold by auction. S. P. DINING CAR GRIEVANCE CHIEF RUSHS NORTH Clarence R. Johnson, the guiding spirit of the Dining Car Cooks and Walters Local Union Number 582, received a telegram Wednesday requesting him to be present Thursday Morning in San Francisco, where a wage conference will be held with rail executives. Mr. Johnson has been labouring untiringly since his return from San Francisco several weeks ago on some statistical data that he intends using in getting a fair increase for this class of employees. A few minutes prior to Mr. Johnson's departure on "The Coaster" bound for the bay city, in an interview he seemed very optimistic. A delegation of cooks and waiters accompanied Mr. Johnson to the depot, and are eager awaiting for his return with the glad tidings. Set on bringing more Easterners to Los Angeles and Southern California, the Union Pacific System with the Chicago & Northwestern Railroad have issued 100,00 booklets describing the joint tours conducted by the roads from the East. It is thought that this booklet will aid thousands of vacationists in arranging their summer trips, throughout the East in chambers of commerce, public libraries and travel. These booklets are being distributed agencies. Many additional improvements and facilities have been completed by the Union Pacific at Zion Canyon, Grand Canyon and Bryce Canyon National Parks during the past few months and with the opening of the season early in the summer these resorts will have ample accommodations for the added number of visitors anticipated. DINING CAR. LOCAL NOTES. 'Among the many visitors at Cooks' and Walters' club, in East 11th street the past week, were Miss Lillian Wallace, of Chicago, Mrs. C. Johnston and Grace Hoxter, Malice Malds, during their prolonged visit at the club they were royally entertained by Mr. E. J. (Pat) Williams. A series of meetings have been held at the club daily since March 27th. As the cooks and waiters are on the threshold of a wage increase, quite a bit of enthusiasm was manifested in the meetings.

N. Bradley, etc. That the Overall and Glingham Dress Dance, given by the Colored Social Club was a success, is putting it mildly, for everyone was so thrilled with the affair that the club had to promise a Easter Dance, the Monday evening after Easter Sunday. We are gird to see Mr. J. B. Walker back to his barber shop after living, been ill with a touch of ptomain poison. The local chapter of the Eastern Star held their third annual Vesper Services in the sacred atmosphere of the new Second Baptist Church on Palm Sunday. The platform was artistically adorned with huge baskets of Spring flowers tied with large blue, salmon, white, yellow and wine colored ribbons, which are specified symbols to those affiliated with this grand uplifting organization. Neath a beautiful growing palm three pure white tapers burned at which table Mr. V. I. Holman, Grand Patron onicated. Those assisting him were Messrs. J. W. Gray and Gardner, and Rev. F. W. Williams. The Eastern Star Sisters participating were Mesdames J. W. Gary, Grand Matron; V. L. Holman, Freeman, Gardner and N. Braxton. Mr. Walker, Worshipful Master, was presented with a basket of Lifes as a token of good will to the lodge from the Eastern Star. Rev Shaw, or Wesley Chapel in Los Angeles, delivered the sermon for this occasion in which he declared that, "There are many agencies outside church which are lost to teachings of the church and to these agencies of my heart and hand and speed them to on and on in their great work." Also that, "The Eastern Stars are like Esther of the Bible doing for the salvation of their people in taking the spirit of the past to fit into their spirit today. Well, folks, here we are again after a brief vacation, much has happened, is happening and will continue to happen. Our family is continuing to increase. We have quite a few new waiters and have hopes of putting on another maid as summer approaches. We have great hopes that the boys will get together and organize a social club for what we need is more social activities and from the party they gave at the South Los Angeles Country Club a few weeks ago, they have proven to be great social boys. So boys get together—"Let's make whoopee!" We are very sorry to announce that Mr. and Mrs. Staton was painfully injured while driving out Slamson Avenue last Thursday. They are both at the ? Hospital. All are urged to visit them. We wish them a speedy recovery. Mrs. Susie Taylor, one of P. C. C.'s oldest maids, has moved to 1840 Locust Avenue. Let's give her a hand. It is really a nifty little home. A few of the waiters and a petite maid enjoyed dancing and dining at the Kentucky Club last Thursday. I mean the club employees can sure cabaret. It is really a problem to figure out why a certain maid is increasing the use of make up and what I mean it's tight like that. We wonder how a certain waiter fareed and sleeping at the P. C. C. since he lost him home pay day. (Remember—full houses don't always win). If a certain little waiter who is the proud owner of a star coupe continues to try to gain popularity with the flappers, and has to pay our many more dollars on the repairs of his car, he will soon realize that a used coupe and flappers will not mix. It is surprising a certain captain hangs around the ladies check room every day. Has he checked his heart? Some of the waiter are really tight, having cute little flappers from Los Angeles meet them down here; but if you take notice it is only twice a month.

It was announced in a recent edition of a daily paper that the State Legislature has passed a bill permitting payment of Justice and Police Court fines "on time." We may hear something like this in the court room: Judge: You are fined $500 for the breaking of five major traffic laws. Terms or cash? Prisoner? Terms, your honor! Judge: All right, $50 down and $5 a week. Next case. We buy on time, work on time, eat on time—fines and other charges of the court were about the only things left out.

TIVOLI THEATRE Our Screen will Sing and Talk starting Tuesday, April the 9th. The young people (The Heralds of Tabernacle) 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 and 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 damself) 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. Miss H. M. CROOMS, Directress Rev. J. D.

How did Jesus meet life's question? How can we meet times of Supreme Testing? Scripture Text, St. John 16:29-33 A crisis is dangerous where life isn't braced by a strong, definite purpose. A purposeless life is usually a weak life. A crisis will make us or break us. Like a wave, we must ride it to victory or be burted beneath its flood. A crisis is a decisive moment in one's life; a turning point; a time of great difficulty or danger. A crisis will come to every life from one angle or the other. One becomes suddenly ill in the midst of an important undertaking. It is a crisis. Out of such illness some men have risen to a great career; others have been dragged down to ruin. Space will not permit me to give other examples; suffice it to say that there are moral, spiritual, financial and social crises that must be met. How shall we meet them? A crisis generally wears the face of disaster; but it is not disaster; it is opportunity, if we make it so. A crisis when met with unfailing courage as Jesus met his crisis, never hinders, but brings powers and possibilities to light that otherwise would have remained forever hidden. Then to successfully meet life's crisis rests with us and the way we avail ourselves of the gaiting process of God; it is the fateering process of God; it must change our ways for good or ill. It is the turning point of life where paths diverge. Many times we have to abandon old habits, depart from custom, develop a finer quality of thinking and employ a higher standard of living. It requires a reorganization of life and life's habits. Here lies its peril and its promise. Old ways of life are disrupted; we must seek new ways. How shall we do it? How shall we conduct ourselves in order to find the way to greater, good and escape the way of ruin? This question is asked by a large number of the earth's population today. I am asked this question so often by both old and young: "How to meet a Crisis," I am moved to write on it. Maybe I can help some earnest soul to overcome. There is a right way and a wrong way to meet a crisis. The wrong way—First, is to fail to see it; second, is to see it and fear; third, is to be so custom bound and habit ridden that we cannot change our ways and meet the strange new demands that are made upon us. Many people are often swept off their feet before they even know there is a crisis. They often find themselves struggling in the wreckage without preparation to meet the issue. This is due to the fact that we spend so much time doing the little frivolious things of life and skimming over the surface of life. We do not take time as every one occasionally should, to draw apart from the continuous succession of the little things of life, and look deeply into the deeper events of life; that we may have a larger view of life's realities and a broader vision of the eternal method or meeting life's problems. This will help you to be in a state of mind to catch the significance of a crisis when it begins to loom. Christ, practiced, meditation. The quiet hour rule is good for us all. He turned aside from the crowd and gave Himself time to think. He also took time for personal devotion. He took time to hear what God had to say to him, to hear what God's will is toward the sons of men and the part God wanted to express to the world through him. So no crisis ever caught Him unawares. He was always ready for what came next. THE RIGHT WAY Knowledge of the wrong way to meet a crisis may help us to see what is the right way. Highly to meet a crisis and ride it to victory we must be alert, fearless and plastic. Maybe I should carry these requirements a little farther. To be alert is to be sensitive of changeting keenly aware of the problems involved as well as of the other possibilities. Can we be sensitive to danger and possibilities of various kinds, surveying the situation in its fullness, face it squarely, feel the full stimulus of it, and yet be free of that fear that distorts the vision, confuses the thinking and weakens the will? That is the one great test. If we are to master the crisis we must face the issue squarely and unafraid. Let Life Insurance Make Your Dreams Come True SMALL sum invested in insurance protection each year soon grows into a sizeable nest egg which can be used to make your dreams come true. It will buy that cozy home you have planned for; it will help launch that business enterprise you have waited years to begin; it will educate your children and perform a hundred other tasks which money alone will do. Life insurance is more than a provision to meet the demands of death and the expenses of burial. It is a savings account; it is an investment; it is a true index of character and of the responsibility of the one that carries it.

The woman, with the promise and hope or increasing her money drew her entire savings from the local bank and turned it over to the men who had " helped her find" a pocketbook containing a large sum of money. She has seen neither her savings or the men since. BOSTON, Mass., April 1. (By the Associated Negro Press).

Eliner Bartlett, if our eyes do not delceive us, has finally divorced himself from the Stephens faith, taking membership out in some new faith. He was travelling so fast we could not discern the name plate but it looked like Chandler religion. J. L. Hill of the Angelus Funeral Home is piloting a Cad around now. Seems to be getting in fast company for an undertaker, or mbebe he's trying to catch up with some of his brothers in the same line. Well, you sure made a good start. Did you read in one or the dailies last week about the Englishman in Enland, supposed to be member, in fact rector of a large white church. We've forgotten his name, poor simp, as we only try to retain names and things worth while in the limited portion of our brain given to the storage of memories. Well, any way, this supposed to be Christian committed suicide by hanging himself after he had acquired $50,000, not as a rector, but while a rector in the church, and will that entire amount, in trust to be used to buy boys knickerbocker on which it to appear his name. But says he, no black boys are to receive any pants. And say we, no black boys are anxious to advertise a suicide infected with colorifolia, even if given pants. May the devil have mercy upon him in the event that Mas. Peter tacks him in his automobile at the pearly gates of heaven and in behalf of His Honor who is ruler of the universe, refers his chauffeur to drive him to the gates of bell and commit his poor soul to the tender care and keeping of this man within. Coasted into John Felix last Sabbath Day. John is President and General Manager of the Felix Germinating Factory. This said factory is a small and powerful equipped concern located in the brain of Mr. Felix which manufactures and puts into motion small paying ideas good for folks starving to death because they are too dumb to think. Just at present he is constructing a Los Vegas idea which if he doesn't run out of mental material is going to be a gold mine; John can germinate more ideas than any living germinator we know in the germinating business. Two young ladies busily engaged in a worthwhile enterprise, that of journalism hurriedly passed us the other morning pausing long enough to officially recognize us as one of the journalistic family they are trying so hard to make creditable. I was honorably decorated with a copy of their most talked of magazine and can but say thanks for the honor. There, were two shows held at twenty-third and Central one night last week. One was a regular expected performance; the other and most exciting a non-pay affair. One man used a knife, the other a gun. The knife man got killed, as the aggressor, in the man with the gun's restaurant. We hear twaided exciting but not enough to make folks stop eating the meal before them. It takes more than a killing to thrill or frighten the public now a days in this high-powered automobile jazz age. Tom Houston the leather finisher, has to our mind the oldest running automobile in town with the exception of the 9-year old locomobile owned and driven also by one of us. Tom has a Humphole, but the 19-year-old still is able to give a good account of itself and make a modern auto hustle to keep up with it.

In the recent death of Mrs. Bert Williams, wife of the late Bert Williams, greatest comedian of all time perhaps, Los Angeles has more than a passing interest for it was here that the famous original team of Williams & Walker had its origin. Now, all are dead—Williams and Walker and their wites. Her pasing, the echo of a day and time when the Negro actor made a bale and successful attempt to elevate himself to a higher plain in the theatrical world will. The result that minstrelism has been has been shoved in the back ground and replaced with the highest type of acting. May the same Williams & Walker never be forgotten. Another death occurred in the business world. It is with deep regret we learn of the passing of the Atlas Laundry. To our mind it was one of the finest enterprises our group could have looked forward to. We entertained high hopes and ambitious ideas for its success but lack of finance caused its downfall and today the building has been stripped of its many thousand dollars of equipment and the agents have ceased to collect. This is not an example showing the grave necessity for a financing or holding company. Let's divert some of our gasoline money into business channels. We attended the business men's luncheon last Friday and had the pleasure of hearing a wonderful three-minute talk omitted from the lips of one from amongst us. Charles Bldgett. His talk on investments was well received and it is to be hoped he'll find time to strengthen the Negro business man's hand by giving him both his presence and advice. He needs it. BEWARE OF FALSE LEADERS Los Angeles, Calif., April 2, 1829. To the Citizens of Los Angeles, in the State of California; GREETING: We the undersigned members of the Incorporated Voter's League, submit to the people of the City of Los Angeles, State of California, the foregoing statement to wit: THE INCORPORATED VOTER'S LEAGUE is not an organization for personal gain nor was it organized to be controlled by any one individual THEREFORE. THE VOTER'S LEAGUE, hereby calls to the attention of the public that it has been alleged that a certain Charley Olivier has called in the name of the meeting without the permission or authority of the same, and through this and other mediums is doing everything within his power to create dissention. We wish further to state that said Charley Olivier has not been chosen by this organization to serve nor to act as a representative of the Gafed voters of the East Side or in the City of Los Angeles, State of California. As an organization of UPLPTT, we the members do not approve of any effort of unfair dealing with the people.

We also protest, against the use of our names to any statement written or verbal without our consent. We also protest against certain persons using names upon any Pamphlet as any committee, fostering any, Mass Meeting with the heading of the Incorporated Voter's League, without the consent of knowledge of the majority of the members of the Executive Board. We most heartily protest against the action of the party or parties who called the meeting of the Incorporated Voter's League on Sunday, March 34, 1929 at St. Paul Baptist church, 21st and Naomi avenue, under the AUSPICES of the Incorporated Voter's League, without the knowledge of all or a majority of the members of the Incorporated Voter's League.

The golf bugs of Kansas City and vicinity have not waited for the turt on the fairways of the Groves Center, Kansas, golf links to dry out good before taking up another season's play of the ancient Scotch game. The links, laid out last spring as an experiment, by the seven Groves boys, sons of the late Kansas potato king, on a section of the huge farm owned by the family proved so popular that improvements and additions are promised for the coming season. Instead of doubling on two new holes have been added. This two of the original seven holes in order to make a nine hole hole course, two new holes have been added. This year, also, trappinghouses has been added for devotees of the gun. It is planned to hold a series of monthly tournaments lasting well into the fall, a few of which will be for women as the members of the fairer sex have shown an interest in the masseur upon almost equal to the men.

"In this connection we have adopted a type of structure which is at once TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala. Mar. 30. (By The Assigned Negro Press). So severe were the rains which last week flooded large areas in Alabama that for three days Tuskegee Institute, the Veterans Hospital and the town of tuskegee were cut off from the outside world save for airplane, telephone, and telegraph connections. From Thursday until Sunday no train could approach Chehwai, the railroad station, because of major washouts along the road. The highways leading to Montgomery, Atlanta, Columbus and other points were also impassable, water having inundated them and in many places destroyed bridges. It is able to get electricity from the Alabama Power Company which ordinarily supplies them the term of Tuskegee and the Veterans Hospital were supplied during this period by Tuskegee Institute which generates its own electricity. The water supplies of the town and hospital were also threatened and Tuskegee Institute held in reserve a large amount ready to meet the emergency. The good supply of the institute was sufficient to maintain its student body and the Greenwood Community totalling about 3500. In other sections of the state the flood reached disastrous proportions making it necessary to get supplies from the nearest hospitals these planes serving the flooded district was forced down on the institute farm. Miss Annie Bostic of the State Health Department assigned to duty with the Alabama Extension Service with headquarters here has been detailed for relief work at Troy in the flood belt.

POLITICAL POT PIE With the closing of entrees on last week the race is now on as to who will win the nominations for Mayor, City Council, Municipal Judges and Controller. Here's hoping the swiftest and fastest may qualify. The lightening bug newspapers this far have experienced quite a difficulty in making their appearance. Johnny Branson polite and sauve, has not yet announced his ticket in all of its fulness. Lost, strayed, or stolen—one Wood Wilson, a political oracle. Produce him at this office for a suitable reward. Thus far candidate Greer for Mayor has produced concrete evidence that he is truly for all peoples. President Benelli of the City Council and mayoralty candidate made a very good impression indeed upon his hearers at a special meeting at the St. Paul Baptist Church last Sunday. It looks like the old war horse, C. H. Alston is well aboard the Carlin Smith band wagon and will soon make the welkin ring. PLAN JAIL RELIEF Councilman Ingman's activities as chairman of the council's Police and Fire Committee has aided in bringing relief to prisoners in the city's jail. In a recommendation recently had before the City Council, he asked for the construction on two army barracks on the city owned site adjoining the Lincoln Heights Jail. "As the fall at present is as clean and orderly as possible," Ingram explained, "the only way to relieve the overcrowded condition is to obtain move space, making it easier to build, plumbing, paving, the creation of a new and larger building." The City Council at present is considering Councilman Ingram's actu- Summer Playground Has Winter Lure A FAIR SKI JUMBER THE CAMP SEELEY LODGE CABINS FOR OVER NIGHT VISITORS A SNOW SPORT Motorists of the Southland are afforded another winter sport rendezvous with the opening of Camp Seekey, long popular as a Los Angeles municipal summer playground, all year round.

ACTED FOR TAXPAYERS His policy always has been to foster such improvements and make such restrictions as possible to the greatest benefit to the home owner. His actions always have been prompted by the desires of the people. One of Councilman Rice-Ways achievements is opening and widening Venice Boulevard to 60-foot highway at a minimum cost to taxpayers. Candidate Harmsen who conducts his business at Sath and Central Ave. is looming up strong as a one two contender for councilmanic honors in the 5th district. All persons who know him have nothing but praise as a high-class and honorable business man. Among the voters generally, he is conceded a strong and brave support Pickens Asked To Represent Negro At Paris Conference NEW YORK, April 2. (By The Associated Negro Press).

Among the many endersers of Mr. Underwood is that or the University Taxpayers Protective League and numerous labor units. Mr. Underwood further states that a personal house to house canvass, conducted by himself in person has unified a strong support, and while he regrets the fact that time will not permit him to personally meet all of the taxpayers, property owners and voters that he will do his best to corer the territory and present his cause.

M. E. CHURCH REV. T. F. JONES, Pastor "Our greatest Easter", was the consensus of opinion of all who attended the services at Grant Chapel Sunday. The Sunday School had the largest attendance of the year. At the eleven o'clock service a large congregation listened to the Easter sermon by the Pastor. Mrs. Rose M. King the wife of Dr. N. Curtis King, united with the church. There were a number of visitors present. At seven o'clock the church was crowded to witness the wedding of Mr. David Denton, to Miss Mildred M. Brown. The Pastor read the ceremony. The Easter program by the Sunday School followed the Wedding. The program rendered was one of the best ever given in this church. The sones, exercises, and recitations by the children, the pageant, by six boys and the perfection with which the girls presented the pantomime "The Old Rugged Cross," sung by Mrs. Blanche Woods, and the solo by Mr. George Jones, made a lasting impression on the large audience. The church was beautifully decorated and eggs were distributed among the children. Next Sunday the Pastor will preach at both services. Worship with us next Sunday and you will receive a cordial welcome. MACEDONIA BAPTIST CHURCH REV. L. M. CURTIST. Pastor Easter was a glorious day at Macedonia. Service began at 5:30 A. M. The pastor preached a wonderful sermon, and an unusually large crowd was present. Those who heard the sermon, were made to feel that they were receiving through the pastor, a message that came straight from the throne of our Lord and Master. Following the sermon two came forward and united with the church. The services closed, all returning to their homes feeling benefitted in attending the services. The S. S. had their regular services and many were out on time and a very lively session. At 11 o'clock the S. S. inducted in a very splendid Easter program with a very large group of young people participating. Too much cannot be said to encourage our young ladies that had charge of the program, which was enjoyed by all present. The B. Y. P. U. had its regular session with the Pres. Presiding. Many were here as active part in the discussion of the lecture. 7:45 the senior chair was heard in a commendable performance of a sacred hour concert. The spacious auditorium was crowded to it capacity and a number of notables were present from other cities. Every soloist was a member of the choir. Some of the beauty of the production was lost owing to the fact that the Oratorio had to be cut short for the lack of time, but the audience showed its appreciation for the selections rendered by a large collection, and what was quite as much to the point. Much praise is due Sisters Curtis and Fotter for their service with the Junior choir Sunday Morning. Their songs were beautiful and rendered next Sunday will be out regular Covenant and it is the pleasure of the Pastor to have all present through out the day of services.

Mrs. Bonner was a former resident of this city, but now living on East 57th Street. REV. A. P. RAMSEY. Pastor A wonderful Easter Service was held at the Friendship Baptist Church beginning at 5 A. M: Easter anthems were rendered by the splendid choir directed by Miss Irma Ramsey. A solo was given by Mr. Johnson of East 111 Street. The Easter message was brought to us by the pastor, Rev. A.

TEMPLE Specializing in Women's Diseases and Obstetrics [NOTE: Please address all queries concerning this column to Dr. Ruth J. Temple, 803 E. 32nl St., Phone, HU. 3419 of VA, 1221.] SOCIAL DISEASES In our last issue we outlined the most common modes of infection with the germs of Syphilis. And found that about $2 per cent, or all of the cases were contracted by intercourse, while about seven per cent, of the cases were contracted by kissing, and by using cups, towels, razors, pipes, toilets, bath tubs, etc, formerly used by persons having Syphilis. We learned that the very tiny germ of Syphilis may enter the body at any point where there is a break in the surface of the skin or mucous membrane of the body. And further we learned that at this exact place, about three weeks later, these tiny germs, which had been hiding and multiplying rapidly in the body, gathered together and formed a sore called the Chanchre. Now this chanre is the very first outward manifestation of the disease of Syphilis. Altho, remember that "Mr. Some One" the man of whom we spoke last week, has already had the disease for some time. He got it three weeks ago, and no outward sign has been seen until now, nevertheless the germ has been working quietly, inside the tissues for about 21 days. Incident Number Two. About one week after the appearance of the channe "Mr. Some One" notices "something else wrong." On undressing he notices that the glands of his groins are very large and firm, they are not painful. These glands had always been in his groins, but he had not noticed them because they were small. They are partners to the blood and lymph vessels and form a great system thrust in his body. Their special work is to take care of, and to kill off, or destroy, poisons and germs which enter the body. So when an alarm was sent out about three weeks ago that a terrible enemy—the Treponema pallidum or the germ of Syphilis had entered the body, the little inguinal glands in "Mr. Some One's body became frightfully alarmed. They determined to put up an awful fight to try to keep the Treponema from going one inch farther into the tissues of the body. They called for more white blood cells. The white blood cells are the best fighting cells in the body's army. After the white cells arrived, the glands called for If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA —You May Never Know It Happened more fresh, new blood, to try to help them to kill off this awful enemy, the Treponema Pallidum of Syphilis. The great increase of blood and tissue cells made the little glands so large that "Mr. Some One," noticed them and said, "I have enlarged glands in my groins. And he became still more worried than he was when he first noticed the chancre on his genital organs. But the hard work of the little glands was all in vain, because the germs of Syphilis are far more stronger than the cells of the human body; and so after a short tussle they are mercilessly killed off the poor little while blood, cells in this set of glands, and marched triumphantly into the main part of the blood stream. Here they begin their spectacular work which we shall take up in the next lecture. Ear Markso of the Beginning of Syphi The first, or primary stage of Syphilis begins with the moment of eight to ten weeks. During the first oak syphilis Arniphi aqi soap soap soap infection, and lasts for from six to are no obvious symptoms to indicate that the individual has Syphilis. At tho, the spirochoeta or Tpeponema can be found microscopically. At the end for three weeks the channe appears. About one week later the adjacent lymph glands become enlarged. These are the only signs of the disease thus far; the chancre and the enlarged lymph glands. Now I will answer some of those questions which I know you are "just dying" to ask. "How does the sore or Syphilis, or the Chancre, look?" It begins as a small bump, or pimple, or papule, this increases in size, becomes eroded or the surface becomes raw the bed or bottom of the ulcer is often bright red and either raw or smooth and shiny. The edges have a scooped out appearance that is they slope in gently from the surface. "HOW long does the chancre take to heal?" A chancre may heal in a few days or may remain unhealed for many months, especially if it is located under the long fore-skin on the male genitalia. "Does it leave any scar?" No, it does not." "Does it hurt?" No, it causes no pain. "What is the most characteristic thing about the chancre of Syphilis?" The hard carilage-like base or bottom is the most distinguishing feature of the chancre. Whenever the tissue around and beneath a sore is hard like cartilage to the touch and has the above named characteristics the individual should seek medical advice at once. And be sure you go to an honest physician for advice. For it is in this field more than in any other that "quack doctors" make their pocket-books fat and their patient's bodies poor.

New York, Mar. 25.—Following out the wishes of Charles Garland, Massachusetts liberal, who gave his fortune of $550,000 to the American Fund for Public Service for distribution to public causes, the Fund reported today that in six years it had succeeded in spending the money. The rise in the value of the capitalistic stocks in which the principal fund was invested, briefly the First National Bank of New York, had given them almost $2,000,000 to dispose of. Various agencies connected with the N. A. A. C. P. and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters benefited to the extent of $65,000 from the Fund. James Weldon Johnson was the last president, Roger Baldwin, Elizabeth Flynn, Scott Nearing, and Norman M. Thomas, late socialist, candidate, for president, were among the directors.

The Sunday School had the largest attendance of the year. At the eleven classes, the students listened to the Easter sermon by the Pastor, Mrs. Rodd M. King the wife of Dr. N. Curtis King, united with the church. There were a number of visitors present. At seven o'clock the church was crowded to witness the wedding of Mr. David Denton, to Miss Mildred M. Brown, The Pastor read the ceremony. The Easter program by the Sunday School followed the Wedding. The program rendered was one of the best ever given in this church. The songs, exercises, and recitations by the children, the pageant, by six boys and the perfection with which the girls presented the pantineum "The Old Rugged Cross," sung by Mrs. Blanche Woods, and the solo by Mr. George Jones, made a lasting impression on the large audience. The church was beautifully decorated and eggs were distributed among the children. Next Sunday the Pastor will preach at both services. Worship with us next Sunday and you will receive a cordial welcome. MACEDONIA BAPTIST CHURCH Easter was a glorious day at Macedonia, Service began at 5:30 A. M. The pastor preached a wonderful sermon, and an unusually large crowd was present. Those who heard the sermon were made to feel that they were receiving through the pastor, a message that came straight from the throne of our Lord and Master. Following the sermon two came forward and unified with the church. The services closed, all returning to their homes feeling benefited in attending the services. The S. S. had their regular services and many were out on time and a very lively session. At 11 o'clock the S. S. indulged in a very splendid Easter programme with a very large group of young people participating. Too much cannot be said to encourage our young ladies that had charge of the program, which was enjoyed by all present. The B. Y. P. U. had its regular session with the Pres. Presiding. Many were out and took active part in the discussion of the lesson. 7:45 the senior choir was heard in a commendable performance of a sacred hour concert. The spacious auditorium was crowded to it capacity and a number of notables were present in other cities. Every soloist was a member of the choir. Some of the beauty of the choir was lowering to the fact that the choir had to be cut short for the lack of time, but the audience showed its appreciation for the selections rendered by a large collection, and what was quite as much to the point. Much praisef is due Sisters, Curtis and Fotter for their service with the Junior choir Sunday Morning. Their songs were beautiful and rendered well. Next Sunday will be out regular Covenant and it is the pleasure of the Pastor to have all present through out the day of service. Mrs. Jeff Nash residing on Wilmington Avenue, is reported ill and under-care of the Dr. Mrs. W. L. Bonner was a visitor in South L. W. a last Sunday. Mrs. Bonner was a former resident of this city, but now living on East 57th Street. FRIENDSHIP BAPTIST CHURCH A wonderful Easter Service was held at the Friendship Baptist Church beginning at 5 A. M. Easter anthems were rendered by the splendid choir directed by Miss Irma Ramsey. A solo performance by Johnson of East 111 Street. The Ecumenical message was brought to us by the pastor, Rev A. P. Remsey. The Sunday School held its service at the regular time. A very large number attended and the school seemed to be lively and happy on Easter. A worthwhile program was rendered in evening at 7:30 o'clock by the young people enjoyed by every one attending and those who did not get to hear this program his missed a real treat.
