Crowe was arrested here on today on a warrant issued in Azusa, charging him with grand theft of a tractor, some rugs and farm implements from a ranch he is said to have rented about three quarters of a mile from Azusa. He was taken in custody at 5:33 p.m. by custodians Castles Hamblin and Belsord and returned to Azusa to face the abuse. (By Dick Cromwell Following the recent election and the defeat of the choice of the majority of the Negro voters, Wm. G. Bonelli for Mayor of the City of Los Angeles, our attention has been directed at the effort of our supposed to be Negro political leaders, to set up and appoint themselves political leaders as individuals seperated and part from the police, as the helm of the political ship that is peace in the general direction of peace and prosperity for our local group. Of course there are other ships; politically speaking, manned by other self styled leaders that are cruising about with passengers aboard, which tho in no immediate danger of sinking, have no particular port to make, consequently no particular course to cruise in. Political ships that are just cruising about blocating traffic. Politics since the emancipation of the Negro has played a prominent part in his advancement. For years, during the life of the late Booker T. Washington there was a constant battle, in verbal and written debate, continually carried on between Booker T. who advised against the Negro in politics and Dr. Dubois who advocated the Negro should be in politics. Time over a period of forty years has played an important role in the controversy and today we find the Negro voter playing an important part in National and local politics. Becoming she is on board a ship without a captain and some more interested in personal, financial gain than political opportunity, realizing this have started the machinery rolling, in the fond hope that he or she may gain momentum enough to ultimately be unquestionable recognized as the political spokesman of you and I. True if we are to succeed in the political arena, we must have a leader and a manager in whom we can place unqualified confidence. Personally we have no ambition to aspire for political leadership. Never have, never expect to, but being susceptible of being led like hunders of others, we take time to voice and express our personal views. Political returns by precints give us the truthful information that as a race locally we have no leader, despite Bob Shuler's efforts to mould one for us ever his broadcasting station during the recent campaign and election, despite the political advise handed us through religious channels, an abuses fast being made away with despite the efforts being put forward by our self styled political leaders who through their nerve have been able to seemingly convince the managers of candidates that he or she were IT so to speak and in doing so, will receive one or several hundred dollars on the prom ise that they could deliver, your and my vote. Selling an article that you cannot deliver, or which does not belong to you, is criminal. The fact, that most of our want to be leaders seem to emanate from the professional political camp, controlled by ambitious business concerns, armed with plenty of ready cash, seeking to use you and I as a political football to gain votes to put over their proposition is enough to convince us in the name of decency if nothing else that the time of day is at hand, when we must select and substitute in the place of our bootleg politician a leader amongst us, who has acquired a reputation for bringing things to pass. A leader who has an unstained record in the community for doing things, a leader they of either sex who can stand out beyond the reach of dollars, and demand for the people, the retention in or the election to office those men and women that have for their motto a Government of the People for the People by the People. When this shall have been accomplished, there will be a clarified healthful political atmosphere uncontaminated with a class of so called moss backs self appointed leadership, equipped with two suits of clothes, a warped brain and a lying line of bull that gains for them personally a few criminal dollars and for you and I abuse and disrespect. Let us select a leader, one from amongst us, that has grown up with LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1929 Not content to stand still but determined to make opportunities for others the following gentlemen have formed a Co-Partnership, and will, next Friday, June 28th, open up a first class grocery and Market at the N.

Burton Fitts, District Attorney of Los Angeles County, received at the hands of the huge crowd which was present one of the most flattering and hearty greetings which it was possible for any person to receive. The day had been set apart for him to speak upon the Subject of law enforcement. So vividly did he proray the existing situation of law enforcement, and so ably did he discuss the same with frankness and impartiality, that all present were highly pleased at his exposition to the utmost. Especially so when he declared no fixing of cases was on his program. Very forcibly and understandably, he made himself clear and understood that all people could be the recipient of a special brief kin his office. The fighting District Attorney was cheered to the echo, not unlike a presidential candidate in the midst of a heated campaign. Then to cap the climax after all had been said and done. Mr. Fitts volunteered the information that after due consideration, that he arrived at the conclusion that the Colored voters were entitled to representation in the District Attorney's office and that he was going to make the appointment of one of the Colored Lawyers as a Deputy District Attorney. This surprise was of course received with great acclaim, and of course the stock of the District Attorney soared to even great heights than the remarkable ovation which was his first before this appointment. The District Attorney in making the announcement frankly stated that he was doing so because that he was not a candidate for office and wanted the people to know of his decision which was one of simple justice. Mr. Norman Houston Introduced Mr. Fitts, other prominent citizens occupied seats upon the platform. They're just hired folks now. They're no longer slaves. Today they're rejoicing in every known way. They dance, sing, play music. They're happy and gay. They dress in all colors, dark green, red and blue. Pink, violet, lavender, black and gray too.

Knox, well known Realtor of South Los Angeles, reads like fiction. Coming to Los Angeles in the first of 1920 void of capital but, with a devoted wife and $17.00 in capital, he set his goal for the stars and in his particular realm he is truly mingling among the greatest. This young man worked night for the Jacoby Bros., and by the day for himself. He organized the Knox & Knox Reality Co., with his wife as a partner. By thrift, industry and square dealing he today is the possessor of holdings with conservative value of $100,000.00, maintains an excellent rating with Bradstreet & Dunn. He has loaned more than $500,000.00 for the PACIFIC COAST BUILDING & LOAN ASSOCIATION and has the exclusive agency for the Pacific Coast for this company. All loans are made and disbursed from the office of Knox and all monthly collections come through the same source. In this manner the office has handled more than $200,000.00 annually without the misplacement of one penny. The slogan of the firm of Knox and Knox is "Honesty and Satisfaction." Pay their debts. They employ 20 persons daily. The philosophy of Mr. Knox is that, industry, Dependability and Zeal to work will break down all barriers of race or color. Mr. Knox is one of the religious leaders of this community and active in civic affairs. He is Superintendent and a Trustee of the Macedonia Baptist Church of South Los Angeles. They pray to the good Lord, for Lincoln, who's dead. Dear Lord, I now lay me down, I must sleep. Judge Asks Clemency For Doomed Slayers CHICAGO, June 17—(By The Associated Negro Press) Judge Marcus Cavannaugh, of the Superior Court, recommended to the state pardon board that the death sentences, which he had mposed on Napoleon Glove and Morgan Swan be committed to life imprisonment here Thursday. The judge had a complete change of heart with reference to the condemned youths. First, he sentence them to death when they pleaded guilty to the murder charge, and later he went before the state pardon board to oppose a motion for clemency. The youths have been saved twice by a last minute reprieve and the judge declared that they had thus suffered twice the punishment of adultery. The judge said that they will be sufficiently punished by a life sentence. THIS WEEK, we acknowledge a visit from Wm. De Moulin of the Frank Wiggins Trade School. Mr. De Moulin was in search of a position for a young man who had prepared himself to fill a position as first class mechanic. In discussing, for a brief period, class or race discrimination with the Frank Wiggin's Trade school representative, we found that it's opinion was that, preparedness was the key that unlocks the door of opportunity to man's chosen profession. We loath discrimination and petty prejudice along either social, political or race lines, but we sit calmly and think sanely, it is our open-confession to the general public that we have whined too much about discrimination and urge too weakly preparedness. Our conversation with Mr. De Moulin hummed new impetus for a fight of greater activity along the line of preparedness. I believe, said Mr. De Moulin that Trajan is prepared to fill the bill of good better than the average regardless of his race or color, he is used. I were coming to Los Angeles I was president of a law firm a business unit of which two co-workers were members, and the qualified "but said Mr. De Moulin, I understand that colored people in big business often do not employ their own; and when I question them as to why; their employer tells me that they do not qualify as skilled workmen." This assertion is and is not true. In many instances he has qualified, but the old dragon color prejudice stood between him and his goal. Oh the other hand too many of our young men and women are satisfied with a smatter of training and as a rule get the rising slant on working for a fellow race. Then often feel that they are due consideration because tree connections, and not because of efficiency. All of which is a grand mistake. In order that the Negro business may take its place beside business of other races, it must qualify first in volume, and second in efficiency and the right conception of competition. LAST FRIDAY evening we visited Department 13 of the Police Court. It was our first visit to this night court. Among the prisoners brought in on this particular evening for trial were three young colored boys, one of whom was a mental derelict we had been often feeding for the past few weeks, and thought possibly by visiting the court we might be able to influence the court to commit him to one of the State Institutions for the feeble minded, but before we could get an action our charge shipped away, and we are waiting now until hunger drives him when we shall take proper steps for his protection. However, in talking to the clerk of this court he had this to say, that as a race we the Negroes invested less interest in the unfortunates who came before the courts from time to time than any other people. To all such who feel that Mrs. President of the United States should not exercise her social rights as she sees fit we recommend this item from the pen of Mr. Brisbane in Thursday's Examiner. "INVITING all the wives of Congressman, as custom orders, Mrs. Hoover invited, among others, the Negro wife of a Negro Congressman, Mrs. DePriest, to have tea in the White House. "Senator Blease is not to be congratulated on his reference to the incident. "He' should remember that Mrs. Hoover had arranged a series of teas at the White House, which is public property, for the wives of all Congressmen." "Deliberately to strike from her list one woman whose husband is a member of Congress, because she happened to be of African descent, would have been to show contempt for the Constitution of the United States. "Mrs. Hoover leaves that to bootleggers and their 'respectable customers. She is to be congratulated on the fact that she does so.'—Arthur Brisbane. THE DISTINGUISHING un-Christian attitude of some so-called Americans make us hang our heads, at times in shame. RIGHT ROYALLY were the scions of medicine, pharmacists and dentists received by the populace of Los Angeles as they gathered from all section of the state for the purpose of forming a State Association.

Pastor Underwood and his loyal and determined, workers invaded Wesley Chapel with a Booster Service Thursday night which made things hum.

One of the features of the Rally is a Union Musicale which will be held at Phillips Temple, Wednesday night, July 3rd. Each Church is trying to excel the other in selling tickets which are 35 and 50 cents. Reserve this date and attend this musical treat. SOARING EAGLE' SCORES WIN IN PASADENA WATER BOND ELECTION The management of the campaign for the successful water bonds which was carried by such a phonomenal majority at last Tuesday's special election, arranged with this publication to put out a special edition for distribution among the colored voters setting forth the benefits to be had if the bonds carried, we did so and superintended the distribution of the same. We therefore became a part and parcel of the forces which put over this very progressive measure.

THE CHRISTIAN'S UNION TEMPLE (Up-Stairs) Adams And Central Avenue REV. J. E. Blayechettai, Minister. Last Sunday was a great day again at the Temple. Our pastor preached a soul-string sermon, and all those that heard him went away with something to think about. This was the second Sunday of the opening. When he opened, he only had one member; and that member was Prince Blayechettai. He didn't split anybody's church to start one for himself, but he went on trusting in God, and in two Sundays, the Lord has given him eighteen members. Next Sunday, June 23rd, the Prince will preach all day. In the morning his subject will be "Will the practice of modern Christianity save the negro?" At night, he will speak on "The valley and dry bones." The public is cordially invited to hear our African preacher.

Geo. S. Grant Campaign JUNE 18.1929 To The Editor California Eagle: Permit me through your columns to express my sincere and heartfelt appreciation of the splendid support given by the Citizens of Los Angeles to my campaign for member of the Board of Education. I wish it were possible to name the individuals and recite the numerous instances of their enthusiastic cooperation but space will not permit. The list would take up the whole of your paper and would include nearly all our racial group. To those who have given their money, time and energy, I would like to say that I feel that our efforts were well spent. We have demonstrated that our group will unite, work and strive for a common cause. This will lend great encouragement to our future efforts and compel recognition of our strength. Our achievement of Solidarity turns defeat into victory and the fact that all of our racial group voted for a black man (who merely happened to be myself) is cause to rejoice and marks the beginning of a new day—a new political outlook for the Black Americans of Los Angeles.

DODECAGENIAN ART CLUB The last meeting of the "Dodes" was held at the home of Miss Irma Jones, last Monday night. The meeting was one of a strictly business nature. The Dodes are to give a program at the church of which Miss Eola Morris is a member. All are cordially invited to come and visit with the Dodes at this Program. Really one should not be surprised at anything the Dodes bring up in the future, because they are just about ready to "break forth" in a beautiful Summer Organie Dance. Watch out for future announcements. MRS. DEPRIEST IS GUEST AT WHITE HOUSE TEA Washington, D. C., June.—(By the Associated Negro Press.) The question of just how Mrs. Oscar DePriest, wife of the Illinois Congressman" would fare in Congressional society circles, was partially answered here Wednesday, when Mrs. DePriest was one of the guest entertained by Mrs. Herbert Hoover, the first lady of the land, at a tea at the White House. Among those who attended the tea, which is one of a series given by Mrs. Hoover in honor of the wives of Congressmen, were Mrs. James Good, wife of the Secretary of War, Mrs. William D. Mitchell, wife of the Attorney General, Miss Grace Burton, niece of Senator Burton, of Ohio, Mrs. Arthur M. Free, wife of the California Congressman, and Mrs. Cydel Kelly, wife of the Secretary of War, Mrs. DePriest made a striking appearance clad in an afternoon gown of cardi blue chiffon, with coat of gray trimmed with moleskin and her small hat of gray matched the coat. She wore hose of mealtight gray and shoes of moleskin with strands and heels to match the moleskin collar of the coat. The entertainment of Mrs. DePriest has recalled the fact that the last time a member of the Negro race was entertained at the White House, was when President Roosevelt had Dr. Booker T. Washington as his dinner guest. That incident caused much discussion throughout the country and in the Senate. In this instance, however, so far the Southerners have refrained from any direct comment, but Senator Caraway, of Arkansas took the occasion to draw the affair to the attention of the Senate by having the reading clerk to read the newspaper report of the tea. ON THE SIDE WALK (Concluded from Page One) interested the professions but laity as well. Monday Evening's Reception One of the largest and most representative audiences that would be gathered and which filled the large Auditorium of the Second Baptist church, was well repaid for a very creditable program by way of welcoming the visiting delegates. The meeting was presided over by President J. A. Mitchell, the highlight was the appearance of Dr. L. A. West, president of National Medical Association. We will give in our next issue full account of this memorable gathering. : BUSINESS and INDUSTRY FRED C.

Phonn: WEstmore 2060 SERMON BY REV. A. T. HINES What wilt thou say when he shall punish thee?—Jer. 1321. The word of God addresses both our hopes and our fears. It contains many precious promises of future glory and joy to those who love and fear God. It also contains many fearful threatnings of future punishment to those who obey not the Gospel of Christ. The text relates to future punishment, and contains a momentous question. "What Wilt Thou Say When He Shall Punish Thee?" 1—Consider the punishment supposed: The holy nature of 'God and His eternal truth render it absolutely certain that all impenitent sinners will be punished. (a) Sometimes it commences in this world (the ante-deluvians, Sodom, Pharoah, Achen, Gehazi, Belshazzar, etc.) (b) It will surely be inflicted after death: The rich man was buried and in hell lifted up his eyes being tormented. (c) It will be consummated at the judgment: 1—Both body and soul will be consigned to hell. 2—(Whosoever was not found written the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.) (d) It will be everlasting: Everlasting destruction. Everlasting chains. Unquenchable fire. 2—The question is, "What wilt thou say when He shall punish thee?" It is customary, before the sentence of the law is passed upon a law-breaker, to give him a nopportunity of staining anything that may favor him and withstay the punishment. Now place yourselves before the great solemn tribunal of Heaven—Bring your life, your attitude toward the Lord and His cause before your eyes, imagine that your doom is about to be pronounced, "What would you say?" Will you say He is unrighteous? God cannot be unrighteous—all the host of Heaven proclaim His righteousness. Will you say He is severe? Will you say He is severe? God has proven that He loved you (John 3:16). He says, "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest. He says again, "Ho everyone that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money come ye, buy and eat yea. Come buy wine and milk without money and without price.— Isa 55:1. Jesus says, "Behold I stand at the door and knock, if any man hear my voice and open to me, I'll come in to him and will sup with him and he with me."—Rev. 3:20. Jesus says, "Him that cometh to me I will in nowise cast out."—John 6:37. Will you say that you have not been warned? The evidences laid at your door will testify against you. The church, the preacher, sickness, death, friends and your own conscience, testify against you. Will you plea for more time? It may be too late: The harvest past, summer ended. The solemn degree gone forth: He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: Come and See For Yourself I attempt this June series of ser- mons with one desire uppermost in my mind; it is that I may carry a word of hope to those who feel their need of a greater life and more light. I am conscious of the magnitude of the follo- wing subjects, but God being my helper, the Holy Spirit my guide and with my best effort and co-operation I shall I may carry a word of hope to those who feel their need of a greater life and more light. I am conscious of the magnitude of the following subjects, but God being my helper, the Holy Spirit my guide and with my best effort and cooperation I shall . The Natural Man . The Rational Man .

M. The services will be conducted by the Rt. Rev. Bertrand Stevens, Bishop of the Diocese, assisted by Father W. T. Cleghorn and other Priests from the Diocese. Father W. T. Cleghorn, the rector, cordially invites friends and visitors to attend this service which will be impressive and inspiring. Dr. Ernest Douglas of the Guild of American organists will precede the Dedication with an elaborate Organ Recital. He which is filthy, let him be filthy still: He that is righteous, let him be righteous still: He that is holy, let him be holy still. 4—Will you try to resist the mighty arm of God? The heavens and earth shall flee at His presence. Mountains shall be moved out of their places. Strong and mighty men shall flee to the mountains, crying, fall on us, hide us from Him that sitteth on the throne, The sun shall refuse to chase. ?Axs The moon shall be turned to blood.

In this way you will discover you will have solved the economic problem for the race. $ BE CONSTRUCTIVE Feathered creatures sing cheerily among the leaves and branches of their natural habitat, the trees. The prankish monkey chatters gleefully as he scampers and swings from limb to limb in the tree tops. The meadow lark is never heard to scold or complain as it soars over its fields of golden grain. Only man finds fault with his place of habitation. Is it for this that he was endowed with the powers of discernment, comparison and comprehension? Either that, or he is abusing these gifts. Destructive criticism may be destructive in the sense that it demolishes the outworn to make room for a new and better order of things, but too often it proves only destructive. In community building there must be a happy combination of satisfaction and dissatisfaction if progress is to be made. Communities, like individuals, htrive on praise. It inspires them to greater things. A little biting criticism also helps. To tell them they are either perfect or worthless is to invite stagnation. "Boosters" are ridiculed and "knockers" are hated. And yet it is possible to combine the two and reduce the thing to a fine art. If you must publish your community's flaws and shortcomings do it by telling the world how it is going to overcome them. WEEDS That farmer or backyard gardner is counted shiftless and negligent who permits the weeds to overrun his fields and gardens to rob the crops and products of their nourishment. Even city folk, who buy their food from the markets, know that the cultivated crops and vegetables cannot compete with the devouring weeds and that the farmer and gardener are given the cultivated plants to fight their battles for them. Illness is the weed in the human body. Like that in the vegetable kingdom, it should be extracted by the roots before its treacherous vines sap the strength of the whole body. Every disease and disorder of the human body has its symptoms by which its presence may be noted, so those who neglect to root out their illnesses in their incipiency are like the shiftless and The most insidious and treacherous "wood" in the human body is cancer. It takes a terrible toll in human lives annually because it has been left to "kill the garden." Like the wood in the field, this outlaw growth starts in a small and inconspicuous way and in the beginning gives but slight warning of its presence. Left to itself the cancer eventually becomes distributed throughout the body and lives at the body's expense. If not removed in time it overgrows the normal healthy life in its vicinity and causes the death of its victim—as the wood destroys the farmer's valuable crops. Recognizing the presence and the evil of cancer, It be hooves all humanity to dear with it as the farmer deals with the woods in his fields. A good gardener hoes his garden as rapidly as the woods appear. WHAT IS SUCCESS? Success, of all worldly things, is most sought after. It is also of all worldly things probably the least often obtained. The chief barriers to its attainment are two simple rules: Plan your work-work your plan. Simple rules,: but to many insuperable—the unspanned chasm between the wagon and the star. Planning means thinking, analyzing, systematizing--making things possible after the weaker nature has pronounced them impossible. Working means despising ease, forgetting hardships, laughing at discouragements--sticking until possibilities are turned into acheivements. Plan your work and work your plan are basic, fundamental, neccessary--they are the universal laws of success. There never was a time when consecrated thought and unstinted effort were not rewarded by a full measure of success and there never will be. Wealth is not the measure of success, but love of work is the first symptom. COMES SUMMER Summer is here at last. The Calender says so, and when has the Calender been known to be wrong? Summer is vacation -time for city folk, and on the farm it is a time of intense industry—the busiest time of the year. Cityman and countryman both welcome summer, though for different reasons, perhaps—so this season truly means all things to all men. We like summer, the outdoors season, because—well, 'be cause it is summer. It is understood that in the modernized version on Mary's lamb will follow her to school in the rumble seat. Ice cream is healthful, but it is our recollection that apple butter made a better mustache on the average small boy. The old-timer, who used to speak of "athaletics' and bronical trouble" left a son who refers to the colonel as "Lindenberg." Mr. Mussolini's campaign to stimulate the birth rate in Italy has just taken the form of an announcement that his successor is not yet born. present entertainment.

News has been scarce and for that reason some of the happenings which should receive but a cursory mention have received front page notice. Congressman DePriest had a little passage at arms, verbally, when he offered objection to the passage of a bill presented by Congressman Cramton, Michigan, providing for an appropriation for the Indian school at Belcourt, Indian reservation, S. D. The word white children appeared in the bill, and Congressman DePriest, ever on the alert for equal justice for all, wanted to know if "there were any black children on the reservation." After citing the interest that he had at all times displayed for equality i n the educational advantages for all and giving assurance that should there be any black children on the reservation that they would be taken care of, Congressman DePriest withdrew his objection and the bill was passed. Mrs. Herbert Hoover, wife of the President, as is customary, gave a tea for the wives of the members of Congress. Mrs. DePriest, wife of Representative DePriest from the First Congressional District of Illinois, was among the number invited. The roof of the White House did not fall in neither was there an eclipse of the sun. Mrs. Hoover made the trip with her illustrious husband on the "Good Will" trip through South America. * * * * * The Farm Relief bill was passed without the debenture clause—and will receive the signature of the President, as will the Census bill. It may be that a number of us have read the word "Debenture" without giving a thought to what it actually means. The word is a Latin derivative, used in financial terms it means, "there is owing to me." The debenture clause, of the farm relief bill, which was favored by the Senate and opposed by the lower house, provided that for every bushel of wheat (we use wheat as an illustration) that is exported by a farmer he shall receive from the Government a certificate (debenture) good for 21 cents. One-half of the tariff on wheat imported into the United States. The amount is only good for tariff charges. The farmer will sell this debenture to importers who will use the debenture for the payment of tariff charges. The Administration claimed that the clause amounted to a subsidy. Therefore; opposed, it. Secretary of the treasury, Mellon, has stopped the wagging of tongues concerning his resignation by the emphatic statement that he has no intention of relinquishing his cabinet post. If that is the case, then we see small chance for a "shadow" as registrar of the treasury. In the city of Sacramento, capital of California, there has been any amount of excitement. They have jailed the Principal of one of the Hi-schools for embezzlement, held back the graduating diplomas from several students on account of his irregularities, and caused no end of comment by the disclosures. Before the matter is through with there may be a general shifting about of school authorities and some very unlooked for things in educational circles unearthed. There has been a concerted attempt on the part of politicians to remove the present City Manager. The latest move is a paring of his salary. Well; at that there was any number of parings. Some of the reductions being quite drastic. Investigation has brought to light that any number of California educators is in the pay of the "Power Trust." While probing in its investigation of the power trust. The manager of the coast valley's division of the Pacific Gas and Electric company was ordered by the investigating committee to furnish the commission the names of the electricity—agriculture committee. One of the disclosures was, that Dean of the Agricultural College at Davis, receives $6,000 per annum as chairman and that any number of educators were paid for dissemination of propaganda favorable to the "Power" interest. What with the investigation of crime; the examination of the methods of the monopoly concerns, and the rehiliation of southern politics. This administration will have strenuous couple of years ahead. Congresswoman Florence Kahn, California, created quite a flutter in the lower house of Congress when she asked permission to have read into the House Record the number and names of the persons who had been slain by prohibition agents. It appears that there has been some untoward shootings, unnecessary killings, that has aroused the indignation of the people. Most of whom are ardent advocates of law enforcement. If some of the accounts are truthful, the slayings have been brutal murders. Such killings as the shooting of the woman in Illinois and the boys in Virginia and Michigan, only place the matter of law defiance in a stronger position. Mrs. Kahn has sought to bring these happenings to public notice that they may be rectified in a sane manner. Too often the department under which enforcement agents work are too solicitous in covering up, or "white-washing" the overt acts of those who may be guilty of these pernicious shootings. There should be no warrant to shoot down any human, unless in an act of self defense, who sought by flight to escape arrest on the suspicion that they were in possession of illicit liquor. The Jones law is a drastic measure. It carries no alleviating clause. Hip pocket flasks are a part of present entertainment. Any youth who thinks he may be suspected when entertaining would rather flee than stand the results of arrest. To kill under such circumstances, is murder. Well! School has closed for awhile. Boys and girls are glad. Numbers of mothers are sad. Universities and colleges have graduated any number of young men and young women to the big world university, Life. There has been years of study and preparation for the advent. Great things; ambitious desires; resolves to revolutionize existing standards, and make over this old world have been visioned by hundreds. Plans galore have been laid out and their execution assured. But in a very few years they will all return to earth and mingle with the mortals. How about the hundreds of young men and young women who have dark skins, live here in the United States and are of the "manor born"? They too have emerged from the universities and colleges with high ambitions and good resolves. Is the door of opportunity to stand ajar for them, or will it be shut in their faces? These are questions of moment to the many of us. We have followed their educational progress, step by step, and with hearts that were sometimes heavy. We wonder if they visualize the big battle before them. While gathering theoretical knowledge have they also imbibed the "spunk" necessary to win a fight. If they have the courage to stick their feet in the door way and keep it from shutting entirely it may be possible to squeeze the body through. There was a splendid bit of diplomacy played by one of our young girls in Sacramento. It also stamped her as one who not only possessed tact but was able to teach a lesson in Race pride. The young lady in question was one of a group which was singing a song in which appeared the word so obnoxious to refined persons of color. The rest of the class sang with zest and would place particular emphasis on that word. This young lady did not leave the group in a huff. Oh no! She remained until everything was over. But the instructor noticed that she tres a Negro artist who sang this same song but the objection-did not sing. There appeared on the stage of one of the theable word was never uttered. The young lady told her teacher that this artist was singing that song and persuaded her to go hear him. She did: And came before her class enthusiastic over the way the song was sung. When the opportune time presented itself this young diplomat enquired if the artist used that objectionable word. After a little thought, she said, "Now really, I believe not." Then she told hw the people of dark skins regarded the word, as applied, as an epithet. She gave her version of the reason for her not singing and thought the matter ended. The next time the song was rehearsed the instructor made some preliminary remarks, saying "We are going to sing this song in a different manner. We are going to substitute another word for the one we have been using. She said that the word lacked refinement; was in elegant and had no meaning in connection with the song. That young girl is going to win her way. It is a splendid sign and gives us an insight into the viewpoint and character of our youth. We wish that it were possible to give personal mention of the number of young men and young women who were promoted from the elementary grades; graduated from Hi-schools and Junior college. They, all of them, deserve encouragement for the manner that they have struggled through. It appears that the girls may have outstripped the boys so far in the race. Not positive but it looks that way. Some of the girls have their names on the Honor Roll. The Misses Dunlaps; Portia Greer and several others have their names enrolled as students of high standing. Miss Greer is a fine musician, handles the violin with skill and specialized in chemistry and language. She is the daughter of F. A. and Mrs. Butler. California spends more money per capita on her children than any other State. The educational advantages of California are among the best of the nation. This advantage, or chance, for an education is open to all alike. There is no excuse for illiteracy. What can you do, young man? What can you do, young woman? Those are the questions that will be put to you: Are you preparing? Will you be prepared to stick your foot in the door jam before it can close? Let us Hope. Police Order "Harlem" To Close; Ugly Rumors Rife Concerning The Order On Sunday afternoon, June 9th, Mrs. Julian C. Robinson entertained with a delicious luncheon, quite a number of very distinguished people sat her beautiful home in South Los Angeles. The purpose of this reception was for no other reason than to have her piano teacher, Prof. Wilkins meet Mrs. Nettle-Snyder of Hollywood, recently bred from Italy where she owns a villa, Mrs. Robinson arranged a very lovely musical program with the aid of Prof. Wilkins who himself played one of his newest composition Mrs. Snyder who is a very accomplished musician, being herself a teacher and impressario, having brought the Metropolitan Opera Company five times, and the Chicago Opera Company seven times to St. Paul. She also organized the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra of which she was manager for years. Mrs. Snyder was kind enough to listen to a number of Prof. Wilkins pupils play. She announced in his Maestro and said she worked in the stage to keep the good work in. She also kept that she was very glad to have had the opportunity to meet him and his pupils. She made a special request that Mrs. Robinson remind her of the coming sisters annual pupils' recital of Wilkins Piano Academy which will be held early in July. Among the white group including Mrs. Snder were: Mrs. Smith, sister of Mrs. Snyder, Miss Smith of Hollywood, Mr. Ford of Santa Ana, and Dr. and Mrs. Whitt of West Adams, among our group were Prof. and Mrs. Wilkins, Mrs. Butter of San Francisco, Mrs. Conner of Conner and Johnson Co., Mrs. Walker, Mr. and Chicago, June-19.—(By The Associated Negro Press.) "Harlem," the drama starring Negro actors and actresses, which has set a rapid pace in the theatrical circles for the past few weeks, was ordered to close here after Thursday night's performance. This show is the second to be hit by the Chicago police in the attempt to "clean up the theaters" in Chicago. The order came as a distinct surprise to the management and theatre-goers. The play has received favorable comment from most of the theatrical critics and has played to large audiences nightly since it opened. Police Commissioner Russell "purifying squad" attended the performance Wednesday night an dThursday night the closing order was issued. The censors are reported to have told the commissioner that "Harlem" was indecent, being replete with indecent scenes, and referred specifically to the scene depicting the shooting in a disorderly house and another featuring a dance which was declared "suggestive." "Frankie and Johnnie" was the first play hit in the "purification drive" when it was closed by the police Wednesday night. "I am determined that indecent shows shall not play in Chicago," declared the commissioner. "Other plays, of a similar nature will face the same action if attempts are made to show them here." FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1929 BY: DR. RUTH J. TEMPL Specializing in Women's Diseases and Obstetrics [NOTE: Please address all queries concerning this column to Dr. Ruth J. J Temple, 803 E. 821] St., Phone, HU. 3419 or VA. 1221.] ABOUT DOCTORS Most of you know about the first announced meeting of Medical, Dental pharmaceutical Society that has been convening in our city for the past ten days. To say that this joint session marks an epoch in the life of the truth. It is a fact that the coming together of brilliant medical minds from all over this Union of ours does give to us as physicians new visions, new inspiration and new isite into the larger things on medicine. That is what this meeting means to the doctor. But what does it mean to the laymen, the great bulk of people? I fully realize just what the progress and development means to them for the simple reason that they do not appreciate the doctors for what they are really worth. "Plain Facts" would not live up to its name if it failed to try to make plain to its readers some of the hardships and sacrifices which we as physicians must meet—even those remarks may savor of self glorification on the part of our profession MORE INTERESTED THAN ANYONE ELSE Everyone or almost every one recognizes the absolute necessity of Medical Dental, Pharmaceutical services from some one or thru some agency. Many persons believe that free Clinics and Medical groups or individuals of the other race can serve their interests as well or even better than the Medical Men and Women or their own race. This error is base upon two fallacies. First, it presupposes inadequate preparation on the part of black doctors. If you think for a moment you will see that this cannot be. The State regulates the practicing of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy. If anyone must be actually qualified by brain, power and knowledge to pass the Board of Medical Examiners it is the Black practitioner, for the simple fact that he has no "pull" either inside or outside and his only recommendation is his hard earned knowledge. Thus when your State places into the hands of a Black Medical Man or Woman the license to practice, you may rest assured that they are adequately qualified. But the second factor to my mind is greater than the first. My race over estimates the sincere interest of the white doctor inheritor of their needs and corresponds only underestimates the interest of the Black doctor in them and their physical needs. A little intelligent thinking would also dispell this delusion. First there is the cat and out passel of a doctor who press upon the ignorance and credibility of the Black race who openly makes his host of the same among his fellow white doctors. I know personally at one very flagent case of this. Then these is the hawker splendid scribe white physician with whom our race meets. My experience has taught me that it is always the rascal among the other race who stiles himself a great Socialist and who especially bids for Black trade, wit hite avowed intention of giving little and receiving much in return. If the laymen could only realize that the average laymen has NO way in the world to tell whether a white physician is a big noise bag with rascally designs or whether he is a fine sincere man and highly efficient doctor then they would be less quick to run to the white doctor for care. I and every other physician in this city have seen so many many cases in which some oor black silent said, "I wonder if I should world to a specialist and so I did." We inquired who the great specialist is and nine times out of ten we find that he is some noisy-loud-in-sel-praise doctor who is looked down upon with content and disrespect by all reputable members of both the white and black profession. There fore this convention entered into the Medical profession at a great cost and sacrifice, does nothing more than help our black men and women to know that the Black doctor is their best friend and their most reliable source of professional help then it will have brought to the great masses of Black people in the city of Los Angeles a blessing which is impossible to estimate. Mrs. Pinchback, and Mrs. O'Neil. Those who played were: little Cathy Davis, pupils of Miss Sennet, Misses Bessie O'Nell, Ssarlotte Schimidzu, Japanese pupil, Messrs Gilbert Allen and Wiltkut Dyson, artist pupils of Prof. Wilkins. Mrs. Robinson was indeed a charming hostess, Mrs. Snyder was delighted with the paintings of Mr. Robinson who has an art studio in his home, filled with beautiful paintings from his own brush. NOTICE The Business Men's Luncheon Club which has heretofere met every Friday will in the future meet at 12 o'clock noon on Tuesdays. The members are therefore requested to meet promptly at 12 o'clock-at the Dunbar Hotel Dining Room, next Tuesday, June 26th.

Something in the atmosphere seemed a little different that morning. Not only the general getting together of belongings by the passengers, but actually the porter wore a smile. The essence of courtesy, he was bowing on all sides. Actually trying to create conversation on no more an humble object than the new mattresses, now used in the Pullman service, to give greater comfort to the passengers. He held up one for our inspection, pointing out the springs that were built right in the mattress. He was quick to notice anything that might add to or detract from the general comfort of those in his charge. "Want a brush off, madam?" twirling a whisk broom in his hand, he offers finally this personal service. Taking it as a matter of course, seasoned travelers began to file into his compartment, revolve around while quick strokes and the clinking of silver is to be heard. "I thank you!" up the aisle with "can I brush you off?" followed again by another one. "I thank you," with tightness of the sight warts into its lair. While the harvest of quarters, halves and dollars must have been up to expectations, since after that he was not so conspicuous, neither he nor his "trade" smile. He was indeed a clever, well experienced伯尔. San Francisco (The Bay City, All my life have I had mental visions of San Francisco, the bay and the Golden Gate. Really I thought that there was an honest-to-gooodness Golden Gate to be opened as the golden gate of heaven. Only I did think this would only be painted gold, not real, while that of heavenly vision would of course be real. Crash, boom, ah! falls this vision of the earthly Golden Gate of San Francisco. Over the bay on the rails of steel, to the right, the still waters; to the left, high up on the bill the peaked roofs of straight-laced old-fashioned houses were to be seen. My goodness, they looked as if they had been there for all time and to think, I thought all of that went with the great San Francisco Fire. Not, so however, the view obtained from the Pulman windows—bespoke the fact that the earthly dome did the same great portion of those ancient landmarks. Hills and hills and hills and up on top of the hills on the side of the hills and—between the hills they tilted stories and stories, high narrow and peaked arousing ones sense of insecurity. Aged with smoke, the winds and mists from the water, they would give a story of ancient grandeur and revelry. Another slayer condemned to die, Aaron Woodward, was saved from the chair temporarily Thursday when Governor Louis L. Emmerson issued a stay of execution in order to investigate the case. Woodward was sentenced to be electrocuted Thursday at midnight for the murder of Police Sergeant J. O'Connell, and his reprieve gives him until July 12th to live. Just recently we wrote an article stating why a person should be educated, and as a logical sequence this paper follows dealing with suggestive methods by which a person may become educated, altho denied the opportunity to attend school. What should a well educated person know, anyhow? A well educated person should have at least a fair acquaintance with the following subjects: Philosophy, religion, laws, physiology, medicine, geography, anthrology, sociology, economics, politics, astronomy, geology, physics, chemistry, psychology, a foreign language (especially Spanish, French or German) public speaking, letter-writing, mathematics, the Bible, biology, history of the world, history of literature, history of religion, history of art, history of music, history of the United States and American literature. The general aim should be for liberal education and culture. Visit art galleries, museums, theatres and lectures. Converse with persons who are educated. Form the habit of scanning newspapers and magazines in order to keep abreast of the times. Read only good literature, especially the standard authors. Hear some good music often, either in the concert hall, over the radio, or on the phonograph. Stir up a correspondence with a teacher, learn to speak for, self-expression is the crown of life. If you need special assistance in selecting books, consult the librarian, the Y. M. A. educational director, the principal of the high school, or your minister. Let the ambitious student choose two or three subjects a day and spend a half hour or so on each subject for four or five months; it will be surprising how soon his general fund of knowledge will have increased. Let him preserve for a few more months and he will find himself qualified to converse with anyone, regardless of their academic training or cultural background. Then, after a broad foundation in general knowledge has been acquired, let the "home" student be lead by his special taste if he so desires. There may be some special subject in which he would like to read extensively, if so, he is now prepared to do so, for he has laid a foundation suitable for any intellectual super-structure. It would probably take several lifetimes for a person to become equally efficient in all the above mentioned subjects. Nor is such omniscience to be desired in this age of specialization. Educators generally agree that the best way to get everything possible about one thing, and something about everything. The student must not become frightened at high-sounding technical terms and long words encountered in his studies, for every trade and profession, every science and art have their particular terminology, and with but little familiarity, with them, their difficulty dwindles to utter simplicity. The student must not become discouraged because of his old age or lost opportunities. Consider the following examples of men who have accomplished great things in life after reaching middle age, even old age: Wellington planned and superintended fortifications at 86. Dr. Johnson wrote his best work, "Lives of the Peets" while 78 years old. Defoe wrote "Robinson Crusoe" at 88. Newton wrote new briefs to his "Principia" at 83. Thomas Scott began the study of Hebrew at 86. Gallieo was nearly 70 when he wrote on the laws of motion. James Watt learned German at 85. Humboldt finished his famous "Cosmos" at 90. Burke was 35 before he attained a seat in Parliament. General Grant was unknown at 40. Eli Whitney prepared for college at 23 and finished Yale at 30. Rob Hall learned Italian at 60. Nohan Webster studied 17 languages after he was 50 years old. Scores of other cases could be cited showing aplidend intellectual accomplishments of persons who are well past the century mark. And finally, the aspiring one must be encouraged by the fact that all the while he is "peering away" with studies, his brain cells are forming connections which will sooner or later aid him in mastering his pursuits. If he persistently, regularly, and meth odically set about educating himself, he need not worry. He will reap where he has sown, if he faimts not.

Although no direct blame has yet been placed on Supervisor Frank Shaw, who secured the colored vote in the recent election by promising better conditions for Negro nurses and employees at the General Hospital, yet it has been learned from one of the colored nurses that outright discrimination was practiced at the commencement held there recently. Eight colored nurses were graduated this year, Misses Alexander, Cook, Diggs, Hicks, Williams, Scruggs, Ingram, Lee Miller, and Mitchell, hell. According to the report, Miss Keety, the instructress, ordered Misses Guy, Jones, and Broadway to leave the head of the line of march of the seniors and go to the foot among the "preps". When the girls protested, she is said to have told them to go there or get out of the line entirely. After the commencement the girls protested to Mrs. Henrietta Muir, the superintendent, but she is said to have given them no satisfaction, however, denying that she had any knowledge of the incident. Miss Keety is said to be habitually insulting to the colored nurses and Mrs. Muir often reminds them that if she did not keep them there they would be out of luck for employment. However, only nine nurses are employed there out of the 26 graduated since 1922. A tendency to bunch colored patients is also noticed, the excuse being given that perhaps they want to be together. Y.

It is said that a community is measured by the service rendered by its able Citizens. So will the entertaining of the D. G. Lodge be measured in proportion to the endeavors of the Citizenry of its brotherhood. The signs which we interpret as unmistakeable indications that the cause of Odd Fellowship is rapidly gaining adherents in California, is attested by the pleasing reprts that new Lodges and Households, throughout the State are being added to our Fraternity, and the slogan, "Don't Put it Off, put it Over," is gathering momentum as it proceeds down the corridors of time. And we appeal to every brother Odd Fellow and Sister Ruthite, that there be no relaxation in our efforts, until there has been erected a home to the pioneers, and trail blazers of Odd Fellowship, in California, and from its housetop unfurl the banner of Friendship, Love and Truth, graven in letters of gold and bearing the inscription of Peace, Happiness and Prosperity.

Brown, Jr., formerly Leora Turnbull, came into view, charmingly gowned in orchid chiffon, floor length, and silver slippers, carrying a bouquet of yellow roses and orchid sweet peas. She was followed by the maid of honor, Miss Agnes Williams, cousin to the bride, very becoming in floor length blue satin and tulle gown with orchid and pink bow, and dainty rose buds, with slippers to match. Miss Williams carried a bouquet of pink roses and pink sweet-peas with tulle bow. The little flower girl, Lydia Grass, 5-year-old niece of the bride, was dainty clad in peach ruffled organde, and carried a basket of pink roses and rose petals, strewing a path of fragrant petals for the bride.

The Black Sport World By ART HAMILTON For the second time in three weeks, Neil Cisby the California Thunder Bolt come back to his home town, San Bernardino for a main event. The Bolt draws "Bad News" Johnson this "tip and expects a hard battle frost" 1e northern boy. This same "Bad News" stayed ten rounds with "Bear Cat" Wright, the Omaha heavy that gave Neil such a bad beating. And many say that Johnson made a better showing than Cisby did. Wright Gave Neil Bad Beating "Bear Cat" gave Clibay one of the worst beatings he has ever taken during his career in the squared circle. Wright is one of those crushing, brushing fighters, that fight out of a wrench. With his massive shoulders hunched over, he walks into his oppen, gets in side and stays there to deal out a terrific body beating. And to show that he is plenty good he beat Neil at his own game of long range boxing. He gave him such a beating around the eyes, Clibay had to wear stell breses eyes. Clibay had to wear stolel braces Neil Beat Franz Nussgen ...On his last trip to San Berdoo, Neil Knocked out Franz Nussgen, the German heavy weight in three rounds. That fight was duck soup for the Thunder Bolt and no less. During that fight, Clisby looked something like the old Clisby we used to know when he was beating every and any heavyweight that would step in the ring with him. Should Rule Favorite Over "Bad News" If comparative figures mean anything Neil should beat Johnson with little trouble. Although this "Bad News" person has met some tough boys in his time, his record can not compare with Clisby's when it come to real class in the heavyweight. Peter Jackson Greatest Heavyweight "Certainly no men of his day was more highly thought of than he," is to say regarding Peter Jackson in its what FIGHT STORIES magazine has June issue. It further states, "many close students of boxing claim that Peter Jackson was the greatest heavyweight that ever lived." Jackson landed in California in the late 80's and his remarkable boxing skill, honesty and gentlemanly manner, which was far above the average fighter of the period, gained for him the confidence and respect of many innumerable members of the sporting fraternity. And although John L. Sullivan drew the "color line" as a defensive measure, Peter was matched against some of the most outstanding fighters of the day all of whom were most masterly manner. He was a fine boxer, and despite his great strength and punching ability, he never showed any tendency to malt or clog. In 1891 Jackson fought Gentleman Jim Corbett at the California Atheletic club. After sixty-one hard, grazing rounds, the referee declared the light "no contest" instead of a draw, as no draws were fought before that club. After the light, Corbett, who and boxed John L. Sullivan, Jeffries, Pissimons, and all the other toptopers of the day—named Jackson as the greatest fighter he ever met. CONCERT AT 20TH ST.

The Kentucky Club Is Gone Again "Shoe String Bill Bolden" seems to enjoy these natural flops. Only a short while ago, the Kentucky Club, then destined to be one of the West's greatest Nite Clubs, was forced to close its doors on account of the management failure to meet certain debts in the name of the Club. The Co-partnership at that time consisted of Bill Bolden, Chas Best and A Mr. Carroll. It was reopened however, allegedly under the sole ownership of Walter Hawkins. This purported screen so it is said was to defeat the Club's creditors, fell by the wayside. Two weeks after the reopening, the sheriff put a pad lock on the doors naming the first three co-partners as parties to a suit brought to recover $105.00 in the name of a creditor. Folks are now beginning to wonder how long it will be, before "Shoe String Bill", makes another attempt.

Leonard Porter who stopped Vearl Whitehead in Bakersfield in the 5th round a few weeks ago set a tough Walters at San Bernardino last week. Whitehead has been fighting much events and was rated as better than Walters. Has he been going good lately and is a clever boxer. He is trying to secure a rematch with Walters, or he hurts a challenge to any other 133 pounder on the Coast. Sam Baker showed up at the Main Street arena this week and has started training again. Looks like the Charley Long Joe Hitt rumpus at the harbor this week is going to be a real fight. Long promises to stop his opponent. It is rumored that Ted Morgan and Goldie Hess will mix in an overweight bout at the Olympic early in next month. Goldie has been good but he is picking an interesting customer when he jumps Morgan.

L. Lester Kelley, owner of the Kelley Kar Co., 1225 S. Figueroa, has announced that over 950 brand new Chandlers have been sold and delivered since February. The one main factor of creating this unusual record is the fact that the auto miles have been discounted in some, as well as high as $800, this fact being made possible by the tremendous purchasing power of the company, cutting overhead to a minimum and placing the cars in the hands of the public direct from the factory. These huge discounts being offered by the Kelly Kar Company reduce new car depreciation, often saving the first two years depreciation. Purchasers in all walks of life daily receive approval of the models offered. Chandler line every car at a tremendous discount and priced to fit the pocketbooks and meet the requirements of everyone. The cars may be bad in both the light and big 6 models, and light and big 8 cylinder models. A full line of Sedans, Coaches, Coupes and Cabriolets are available, totaling 26 various models and body styles to choose from. Automotive officials and representatives are unanimous in predicting that this almost unbelievable discount sale will establish sales records that will stand for years to come. It would appear that this springtime is the opportunity time to trade in the old car on a brand new Chandler. They won't last forever, that's sure, and in order to secure the model and body style desired, the Kelly Kar Co. suggests that the public visit their display rooms at once, while selection is complete. These beautiful cars are offered in a large variety of the latest and most desirable color combinations.

One of the principle suggestions made was by the chairman, in regard to the yard force putting up defectors.

Other suggestions were made by Mr. Dick Norwood and Wm. Bradford. Mr. Snoddy made a brief talk which was very much to the point. THE SICK LIST
