Rev. E. R. Driver Accused On the sworn complaint by Mrs Pearl Hayes, 1718 East 51st Street that she gave to Rev. E. R. Driver a certain sum of money, which was to recompense him for getting her son out of jail and which he failed to do and also failed to return the money. This situation augmented by many other instances as disclosed by the investigators which have worked on this case for some six weeks or more resulted in the issuance of the complaint containing five counts. In the event of conviction upon all five of them Rev. Driver could be sentenced to 2 and one half years in jail. DR. EDDIE R. DRIVER The entire matter was presented to prosecutor Nix who announced an intensive campaign against such practises of alleged fixing of cases, and issued orders for the complaint to go forward. Prosecutor Nix praised the work of Deputy City Prosecutor Best McDonald for his assembling of the investigators' findings in legal form and his great service in the position which he holds. The investigators' reports cover 64 pages legal forms. Among the witnesses for the People are Mrs. Sallie Rice. Abe Howard and others which the prosecution will not give out until the trial. The same was made by investigators C. E. Horn, T. Ben Haggerty. The above news article concerned one of the best known and spectacular preachers of this city. He is the pastor of Salnus Home Church on E. 20th Street. In days gone by thousands would trek to this church to witness and hear the discourse of Dr. Driver. The service here was full of action. Then in later days, politics was a feature and even during the last campaign great rallies were pulled off at this church. High officials of state, county and City favored with their presence. Dr. Driver is a man of strong personality, a pleasing speaker, likeable disposition and there is no question of his willingness at all times to be of service for mankind. We, therefore, having the highest personal regard for him, will ask for a suspension of judgment by the people until he has had his day in court and the issues have been decided by a court and jury, and when such has been done, we should bow in humble acquiescence to the judgment rendered.

SHERIFF RUSHES SUSPECT FROM N. C. TOWN Concord, N. C. Aug. 14—(By A. N. P.)—To avert a possible lynching, Sheriff Caldwell, removed Hughie Jackson, suspected of raping a white woman near here, from the local jail to another jail "somewhere in North Carolina" Jackson was arrested Saturday as one of many of those suspected of the crime. Since he answered the description of the assailant of the woman, it is believed that he is the man. When the report was circulated that he had been caught, talk of lynching was done in the open so Sunday night he was removed from the local jail. Efforts have been made to get Sheriff Caldwell to reveal the whereabouts of his prisoner, but he only smiles and says "he is safe" and will be given a fair trial. LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 1929 Venice, Calif., Aug. 8, 1923 The Western Baptist Association Bethel Baptist Church, San Diego, California. My dear Christian Friends: The undersigned is begging your indulgence that he may place a matter squarely before your humble body for the general information of the Baptist Family everywhere. On August 29, 1928 my wife and myself were excluded from the First Baptist church of Venice. The charge which was simply a pretext was filed by Arthur L. Reese who later supported by C. E. A. Brunson and Simon Sercey. Quoting verbatim, the charge upon which I was tried and excluded from the church follows, viz: "We the undersigned officers of the First Baptist church, of Venice charge that on Sunday, May, after having imited the Order of Knights of Pyhias to our church on the occasion of their annual sermon, that Bro. J. Allen Reese as their Grand Chancellor took advantage of his position as presiding officer to remark after the sermon was preached for the occasion "That the sermon preached was the best sermon that ever had been preached over that pulpit." The charce against Mrs. Mildred Reese was signed by C. E. A. Brunson and Simon Sercey; and follows: "That on the 26th of June, 1928, while the church was in business, sion that you referred to the pastor, Rev J. W. Jordan as a devil." Signed: C. E. A. BRUNSON SIMON SERCEY. When Mrs. Reese appeared before the Deacon Board after hearing her statement they by unanimous vote recommended her exoneration. When this recommendation was read before the church, Arthur L. Reese motioned that it be tabled, whereupon he immediately filed the self same charge in open church meeting against Mrs. Reese. She was brought to trial with the recommendation of the Deacon Board which exonerated her on the table but upon the charge of Arthur L. Reese she was excluded from the church. The motion to exclude in both instances were offered by Arthur L. Reese and supported by C. E. A. Brunson. We asked a rehearing and were denied, when upon we petitioned the church for a mutual council and were again denied. Undaunted by this dominating, selfish, malicious and non-Christian attitude we were certain that justice would at some time be meted us, we proceeded to call an Export Council and their letter reporting their findings is attached (exact copy) hereto. This council was representative of the three Associations hereabout as well as of our white brethren of the Bay District. True was the poet when he wrote: "Truth crushed to earth shall rise again. The eternal ears of God are hers; But error, wounded, writhes in pain And dies among its worshippers." Truly hoping that you have had a wonderful session and that peace and harmony have been continually in evidence, I am yours in the service of the Master. J. ALLEN REESE. Upon being exonerated by the Exparte Council we placed our membership with Calvary Baptist church, Santa Monica. Ocean Park, Calif., July 31, 1929 To Our Baptist Brethren and all Whom it May Concern: At an Expare Council called at the Calvary Baptist church of Santa Monica, Calif. July 30, 1929, the following actions were taken: Bro. J. Allen Reese and his wife presented to the Council a full record of their difficulties with the First Baptist church of Venice of which they were members for many years and from which they were expelled in August, 1928. Having heard the evidence presented and substantiated by documents and witnesses the Council took the following unanimous action: "We believe that J. Allen Reese and his wife, Mrs. Mildred Reese should be exonerated from the charges brought against them by the First Baptist church of Venice. We further believe that a grave injustice was committed when they were expelled from the church without self- Finley Wilson Looms As A Sure Winner At Atlantic City Finley Wilson Looms As A Sure Winner At Atlantic City There is no good reason why any great Order such as the I. B. P. O. E. of W. should want to change its executive head, when that particular executive is continually bringing things to pass. We mean progress, new members, new lodges, not in a small way, but by the hundreds as the records prove in the case of the present Grand Enalted Ruler. J. Finley Wilson. Therefore we hope Finley will have no trouble in Atlantic City when the ballots are counted the latter part of this month. We are glad to note the solid support which the members of the order are giving him from this section, the delegates thus far selected are 100 per cent for Wilson to succeed himself. As a fraternal organizer Finley Wilson has won his spurs, the members are with him and will continue to be with him just as long as he continues to bring things to pass. They appreciate his ability and his service just like the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows appreciate the genius and service of Grand Master Edward Morris, who has and will serve as long as he cares to upon his record of progress. Alabama Heads Royal Arch Masons Conference Alabama Heads Royal Arch Masons Conference Samuel H. Crowder, Birmingham, Alabama, was elected president of the International Conference of Holy Royal Arch Masons of the United States and the Dominion of Canada here at the Triennial Convention of the order, which has been in session since Monday. Crowder who is a 33rd degree Mason, and one of the most influential members of the order, was elected by an unprecedented majority, succeeding J. S. Standback of South Carolina, was elected Past President and a member of the Executive Committee. Under the leadership of J. S. Standback, the retiring president, the International Conference of Holy Royal Arch Masons, which is one of the youngest groups of the various branches and divisions of the Imperial Council in session here, has made rapid progress. According to the report of the secretary, Thomas H. Williams, of New Jersey, who is also a 33-degree mason, the membership in the organization has undergone a healthy growth during the past three years. This fact was further manifested in the large attendance upon the convention. Those who have been following the destiny of the order since its inception in 1912, declared that this year's attendance broke all records with the majority of the jurisdiction fully represented. The officers and delegates paid tribute to the work of the retiring president and expressed the belief that with President Crowder at the helm, the conference would make rapid progress in very direction. The election of officers was as follows: Samuel H. Crowder, Ala., President; Henry W. Gregory, New York. 1st Vice President; Marion L. Webb, Mass., 2nd Vice President; George B. Brown, Md., 3rd Vice Pres; Thomas H. Williams, N. J., Secretary; Thomas M. Dent, D. C., Treasurer; Jesse D. Phillips, N. Y., Chaplain. Advisory Board: W. H. Perry, Ky.; ficient reason. We deplore the attitude of the church in denying them a rehearing of their case and refusing to have any mutual council whatsoever. The Council wishes to go on record as being entirely satisfied with the Christian life and testimony of Bro. Reese and his wife and heartily commend them to the fellowship of God's people wherever He may lead them." Yours in Fulfillment. CONGRESSMAN DE PRIEST'S VISIT CONGRESSMAN DE PRIEST'S VISIT It has been definitely decided that Congressman DePriest will speak in this city for one engagement only, which will be Sunday afternoon, September 29th, at 3:00 P.M., at the Shrine Auditorium.

MOONLIGHT WEDDING Given in marriage by her father, Miss Charlotte King, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George King, became the bride of Mr. William Graffe Brown, Rev. E. E. Lightner, officiating. The marriage took place in the gardens of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. George King. The garden was beautifully decorated with colored lights, palm shrubbery and huge baskets of flowers. The bride was gowned in bridal satin, made along princess lines, with circular skirt trimmed in cream bridal lace, and carried a bouquet of white roses, white sweet peas and maiden hair ferns. Her veil was of antique imported tulle (being first worn by her cousin). Miss Dorothy King, sister of the bride, as maid of honor, wore a green gearette gown with picture hat, and shoes to match, carrying a bouquet of sweet peas, and roses. Both girls carried sweet peas and roses. Merion King Rhodes, oldest sister of the bride was matron of honor. She wore a peach colored gown trimmed in lace and carried sweet peas and roses. Little Miss Valentine King, youngest sister of the bride was flower girl. She was dresser in a pale pink, with pink bonnet and white shoes. Arthur King served as ring bearer, wore a white suit sinu, trimmed with blue buttons and white shoes. Mr. Amos Brown, brother of the groom, acted as best man. The ushers were his two cousins, Clinton and Louis Durdn and Harry Zieglar. The soloist, was Mrs. E. E. Lightner. The reception followed immediately after the ceremony at the home of the bride's parents. The bridal table was beautifully decorated with pink and white favorites and a large wedding cake, presented the groom, by Mrs. Kelton of Chicago. Mr. and Mrs. Brown spent a few days honeymooning at Lake Elsinore. The young couple will remain a few weeks with the bride's parents, but will later reside in Long Beach. ON THE SIDEWALK By C. A. B. METROPOLITAN LIFE Insurance Company is again under fire. This time the scene is laid in Chicago. It is stated that a colored policy holder, in the city that was founded by a colored man, living in a so-called white district attempted to pay his policy in the office closest to him, but was told that he would have to travel some eight miles distant to a colored section in order to pay his policy. NOW. WE realize that it benefits one nothing in kicking and pawing when your hand is in the lion's mouth. But there is no sane reason why other hands, free, should be stuck in the same lion's jaw to be chewed off. THE METROPOLITAN Life is one of the oldest and wealthiest in the world, and there are Negroes who have held policies in it for upwards of a hundred years, hence have too much in to come out, but we see no reason why a single Negro living in the United States not holding any policy in solo company should take out one. IN CALIFORNIA the biggest job we have on our hands just now is making the Golden State Insurance Company one of the wealthiest in the State. And what we do here, in the way of developing our company, should be done in every other state and section of the country—and when the Metropolitan and other insurance companies realize what we are doing in the way of piling up a little cash for ourselves through which medium more of our educated young men and women may secure the sort of positions commensurate with their training, they will not only accord us the same consideration given others but will duly bid for our service and trade. WOMEN ARE active in the big fields of endeavor that make for race curtural development, and prominent among this army of workers is Mrs. W. D. Carter, wife of the able and distinguished pastor of Friendship Baptist Church and moderator of the Western Baptist Association. Mrs. Carter comes from one of the best families of the middlewest and like her ancestors gives freely from her store of knowledge for the Social and Civic advancement of the younger members of the race group. Some years ago while Dr. Carter presided over Seattle's largest Baptist church. Mrs. Carter took hold of the Welfare Work in that city, and so successfully did she carry on that she attracted the attention of city and church officials, who proclaimed her a leader among women, neither white nor black, just women. Mrs. Carter is president of the women's division of the California State Baptist Convention, and recently brought to the Coast to greet and inspire the women of this section, Mrs. Willie B. Layton, president of the women's division of the National Baptist Convention. Such workers as Mrs. Carter inspire an hopeful future for the incoming generation. LOOK AT THIS: It is just as much the duty of a newspaper to advocate the cause of a higher standard of living as it is the duty of the church to seek to develop the spiritual part of man's life. Too often older members of our group are wont to say—This is a modern age. You will have to throw aside the traditional yoke of piety and assume the role of the ultra modern ideas, and too often when we are decorating our glazed culture according to these modern dictates of fads and fashions, we forget to cultivate the essentials that go to make up real life and this lack of right thinking often results in our becoming the targets at which other races hurl their scornful prejudices. On August 19, the Los Angeles Times sent out a beautifully engraved circular letter to its million patrons on which were inscribed these words; Unigradal Studio still has quite a few of the gang, still drawing pay checks on their current film, "The Mississippi Gambler". James Conley, worked twelve days, and had a very good part. Chas Moore, who will probably earn a place in the cast on account of the important part he had, and the clever manner in which he handled it, finished it last week. Warner Brothers Studio, still holds the lead in the number of colored players employed during the past week Five of the boys were employed to complete scenes in "Second Choice" featuring Jack Mulhall; Edna Murphy and Delores Costella. Among them were Lawrence Lamar, Lloyd Allen, Virgil Owens and Clarence Elliott. "The Golden Dawn", made at the same studio, has thirty high brown girls, recruited from several nite club reviews, to put over some very clever and highly amusing native dancing. They do it and I bow! The First National Studio has just completed "Passion Pass." They have Floy Shackford, cast in a role evidently designed to score in the manner Stepin Petchit did in his latest picture now running at the Low State Theatre. Louise (Pete) Bowers, is under contract to warn Brothers and is now awaiting the completion of the cast for her next picture. Her part in the next is insinuated, will be bigger than that in "Coquet." Fox Studio Has A Gang Appearing In An Unfitted Southern picture. Pathe Studio, has Oscar Smith, who recently rescinded his long term contract with Paramount to freelance, under contract to complete several pictures. He leaves Saturday A. M. on a long location to make his first with Pathe. Gregory La Cava, will direct his first. 22nd Street Swimming Pool Holds Meet The twenty-second street pool will hold a swimming meet on the 88th. The boys and girls that frequent the pool on twenty-second street have got on various exhibitions, but this promises to out do them all. The heads of the department have worked up some very clever ideas in the aquatic line and have a store of surprises in store for everybody. Every conception of water doings is to be had. A couple of our well known young exponents of the manly art of self defense, Perdy Hooks and Earnest Bendy have a little act they claim will knock them off their seats. An orchestra and band will furnish music during the meet. The entire personnel is composed of boys and girls of the neighborhood. Neal Clisby Goes Back To Old Stomping Ground Neal Clicby the California Thunder Bolt goes back to his old Stomping Ground when he meets Kid Williams in a main event at San Bernardino as we go to press. Neal hasn't had a start in a long time, he should beat Williams if he is any where near himself. Williams was a good old trial horse in days gone by, but he can't rate even that nose. If the Thunder Bolt doesn't stop the Kid inside of the limit my fears will be well grounded. And they are this. I never could get over that sight with Long Tom Hawkins that Neal had. As you know Clisby took the count in 'tour heats. Long Tom hit him so hard it heart me and I was 20 feet away. Right after the fight the Bolt took on "Bearcat" Weight and took an awn bending in ten rounds. He lost to Seal Harris a big overgrown hunk from Chi that Hawkins had put away in seven cautions. For some reason the boy couldn't seem to find himself and we will know after this fight if he has done the finding act or not. Or whether that K. O. Tom hang on him last year has gun the hook on the telescope and has him headed for the little junk heap. We would hate to see that, because of one shot, and want so long ago Claye was rated among the outstanding players in the game. The supporting card has Frankie Bolt the boy who gave Paby Sal a run for his money will grant Frankie Abadine a hard hitting Mex from Joe Stecher Throws Njck Lutze With Body Scissors Joe Stetcher the wrestling farmer from Nebraska left the farm long enough Wednesday night to clamp a couple of both Nebraska holds on the popular Njck Lutze. The Nebraska won the first and third falls. He won the first fall in 12 minutes of terrific wrestling. The former champ finally got a hold of the handsome life guard with those powerful legs and gave him the works. The bout was a thriller from start to finish, both men wrestling for all they were worth. Before Stetcher threw Nick for the first fall, Lutze had him in bed shape several times but couldn't get his body slam to working effectively for more reasons than one. Joe is an old head in the game and he knew just what it was all about. Whenever the going got too rough and he felt himself slipping he would crawl to the ropes to gain a much needed rest. After losing the first fall Lutze came tack strong or take the second with a body slam in the short space of seven minutes. THIRD FALL IN SHORT TIME The third and deciding fall was made in record time, something like five minutes. It was all Nick up until the time of he fall. The handsome boy from Venice was endeavoring to get his body slam working again and for a while it looked as if he might win the match, but Joe came out of them all and right out of a clear sky he clamped a body scissors on Lutze for the winning fall. The Nebraskan was booed from time to time as he sought refuge on the ropes. Nick got a big hand as he left the ring. They like the boy win or lose. The kid plays into a lot of hard luck. Beyond a doubt the whole house would have liked to have seen the boy win last night and go into the match with the champ. The house was practically filled with a few vacant seats down stairs. Bob Kruse and George McCleed wrestled and tugged to a draw, and Joe Wingo beat Ivah Linow. Y. M. C. A. BOYS IN CAMP For the past week over seventy boys and leaders of the 28th Y. M. C. A. have been camping in the tall pines of Little Green Valley, a beautiful green spot nestled in the heart of the San Bernardino Mountains. The camp this year is under the joint direction of Harold Wilson, Boys' worker Director, and Wallace Markham, veteran camper. Both of these young men have attended twelve boys' camps and are fully capable of directing. The directors are ably assisted by the following leaders: Wilbur Dyson, Carl Johnson, Doll Nelson, Hildreth Johnson, Amos Brown, Rev. C. N. Austin, and John A. Barton. The administration of the camp is in the hands of Alfonso Scott, Mayor, Will Sharpe, Judge, Jefferies, Sheriff, James Hudson, Camp Paper Editor, Al Chism, Athletic Commissioner, Howell Haw, Swimming Commissioner, George Prilone, Religious Commissioner, Herb Jones, Camp Fire Commissioner, and James Liddell, Yell Leader. About fifteen visitors greeted the boys last Sunday among whom were Mr. and Mrs. Span and family, Dr. Emily Childress Brown, Mrs. Josephine Brown, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Perry and Mr. and Mrs. Lewis and family. "A Night In The Orient" New Show At Mosby's Club Ted Lewis's features ran for three weeks to turn away houses at the Apex Nite Club, but had to give away to the new show now running, "A Night in The Orient". Mosby and Washington have produced some wonderful shows while co-producing at the Apex, but the patrons of the bright lights claim that the show just ended was the show of shows. Behind a doubt the Lewis songs and the pleasing manner in which they were interpreted by Curtis and his personnel of stars is the reason the night goers were so strong for the show just ending. Giving the Lewis show all due credit, I think this night in the Orient will prove to them that Mosby and Washington get better every time.

Parking Station Tag Results In Grand Theft Charge William Johnson, six and one-half foot giant, is a sadder but wiser man; and is determined to steer clear of parking station tags. On June 14th, a friend of Mr. Johnson's handed him a parking station tag. Mr. Johnson went to the parking station, saw "a lady in the window of the apartment house next door to the parking station" who told him to take a certain car. Mr. Johnson took the Dodge coupe, took a little jaunt around the corner to San Francisco, "got buated," and pawned two of the tires that were on the wheels of the Dodge Coupe. He was arrested by the San Francisco police, returned to the city of Los Angeles, and charged with the crimes of gross theft and of violating Section 146 of the Motor Vehicle Act, so called "joy riding felony" section. Mr. Johnson was tried by a jury in the Superior Court, for three weeks last week, his attorney, Leon Whitaker, contending that Mr. Johnson GAYETY THEATRE did not know that he did not have the right to take the car. After several hours' deliberation, the jury returned a verdict of not guilty on both counts; and Mr. Johnson left the court room saying, "No more parking station tags for me."

Bakersfield's most success business Negro, Henry Houston. This young man is the first Negro youth to receive the appointment of mail carrier in the city of Bakersfield. The large Negro population of this city should entitle them to at least three. Well, anyway they have one and the prospects for others is promising. --- Up in Sacramento there is another son of Ham in the U. S. Mail service well known and liked. His name is W. P. Taylor and it is said were it not for his racial affiliations he would be Post Master. To our personal knowledge he has been in the service for over 22 years and last year his ability despite his complexion gained for him the distinction and honor of being elected President of the Postal Clerks Association of California. We publicly admire him because cotophobia has never attacked his brain and like the Assistant Secretary of the N. A. C. P. in New York, he preferred beimg classed and looked upon as a Negro when he easily could have lost his identity and received higher honors. This week is Legion week in San Diego and along with thousands of white buddies are to be found a strong representative group of their colored comrades. Among the high lights of our boys who attended are N. O. Houston, Harry Beal, Tom Pollock and some fifty others. They had special uniforms made for the parade and as special guests of Inglewood Camp made a sensational hit. We notice that H. A. Reeves, whose ad, is conspicuously displayed in our truly, "The Eagle," is rapidly expanding and his business now fronts on three streets. This is going some when one considers he opened up scarcely three years ago with little more than nerve. We made a pop call last week on Clopton & Ebenow. Mr. Clopton is an old acquaintance that we have watched make steady progress in the face of almost unsurmountable difficulties. He is in the wholesale furniture business, has acquired a partner and is at present housed in his own building employing 20 skilled furniture makers, 14 of whom are colored. One-half of his output goes to the biggest concern in town of its kind. The Annual Picnic of the employees of the Golden State Insurance Co. held at Manhattan Beach recently was a huge success in every way. Many were on the scene as early as 8 A. M. and were loathe to leave at sundown. Another successful picnic was the Union S. S. last week. Every colored Sunday School in the city was represented with the exception of the Glori If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened Baptists, and why? Seems so strange that they would hold aloof when they have nothing better to offer. Of course there were thousands of Baptists there whose presence their faith could not prevent. Broad-minded they, and it's to be hoped the Baptist Association will next year join forces with the rest and have one big and grand picnic. Forty-first and Central is at present the white spot of Negro business. Just last week we let go a splendid opportunity to acquire a wonderful Grocery Store site, and as a result Japs stepped in and grabbed it. Had it been a dance hall or pool room we'd have fallen over ourselves. We were sorry indeed to learn the sad ending of Ace Foreman. Here was a character that contributed much in the line of Aviation to the spirit and inspiration of Negro youth. He in his efforts to make good suffered at times severe criticism, at times unjust, but he continued on to the last trying to make good and earn a place in the sun for the Negro Aviator. Perhaps years to come when we shall have been forgotten for having failed to leave an indelible impression on earth the name Ace (Foreman will still be shining as a beacon light far out at sea. A monument to be looked upon and honored as one who dares in the infancy of aviation, to inspire by his efforts black boys and girls to scale the heights of opportunity by preparing themselves to do anything within the scope of human possibilities. All honor to Ace Foreman. Santa Monica News By Vernon E. S. Brunson First A. M. E. Church, Rev. Robert House, Pastor. The program of the day opened with a very inspiring sermon by the pastor. His subject was "Walking With God." Proceeding the evening meeting the Allen Christian Endeavor League held a very interesting meeting under the leadership of Rev. G. W. Bussy. A special program was held at the evening services by Young peoples society. Brothers R. G. Brown and Van Elk, of the Bible Institute, had charge of the services for this meeting.

Taylor, was composed of members of the Edeavor. The congregation was impressed at the Christian sincerity displayed by these two members of the other group. The First Baptist Church of Venice, Rev. G. A. Miller, Pastor. Sunday evening at this church the people of the Bay District had the honor of listening to a man of our race who is known as prince. A man, from what others call the dark continent; a man with a splendid education, and who is endowed with a wonderful gift of deliverance to speak his thoughts to the people—Prince J. E. Blayechettah Before a crowed house he pictured the true conditions as they exist in Africa today—disapproving the savage and barbarian tendencies often attributed to the African. Next Sunday, August 25th, will be community day, all are invited to come. There will be a special program. Philip's Chapel, C. M. E. Pastor Rev. W. A. Seldon.

P. a reception was given in honor of its president Mr. J. B. Maxwell, who was a delegate to the National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio. The report that the president read at a previous meeting was re-read.

Thursday, Aug. 15th, a reception was given by the Masonic Club in honor of Santa Monica's promising young boxer Sammy Jackson. A very inspiring message was given to youth by Rev. E. E. Lightner, of the Lincoln Memorial Congregational Church; his subject was on the three constitutes of man-Soul, mind, and Body. There were other numbers on the program, most notable was the short address by George Savage, vener of the square ring, it was full of action and punch-right to the point advice that could be applied by every man in every day living. The main gist of the meeting was to encourage youth to win success in the profession that he chooses: Light refreshments were served. There was a splendid turn-out of the men of the city. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur L. Reese left Tuesday, Aug. 20, on an extensive trip East; their return is not dated. Their many friends wish them Godpeed, and a pleasant journey on this trip to the East and South of our great nation. Mrs. W. A. Seldon, wife of Rev. Seldon of the Phillip's Chapel C. M. E. Church, is attending the convention of Grand Lodge (S. M. T.'s) at Berkley, California. The Grievance Committee of the Local N. A. A. C. P. have brought to a favorable termination a matter of discrimination brought to its attention recently. The flight of the great German-airship Graf Zeppelin is not only the herald of a new age, but is the final achievement of a great idea and a man's desire. Had men developed natural wings during the primitive age he would perhaps be there to day. His wings would have him safe from danger, he would have developed them alone, and not his brain. The great Ruler of all things made in his image, a creature of thought and reasoning, which were to enable him to be a fitting master of the things of earthscape, and air man has mastered these things in progressive stages. In life there are two kinds of people. The one that does his deeds for the glamor, aplauses, and notoriety. The other one is the man who does things for the mere joy of doing, reguardless of public opinion, which one gets the most out of his efforts in the long run?

Clayton Russell and Lawrence Johnson, put up a strong fight but were unable to break the strong wall of their opponents argument. The Misses Clyde Welch and Louise Balthazar are to be commended for their splendid work in steady break down nineteenth of their appointments facts, figures of statistic. Hard work and careful work enable all four participants to make a lively debate, and interesting one throughout. The splendid poise and delivery of Miss Balthazar and Mr. Russell, with the co-operation of their colleagues, is worthy of special mention.

The club has grown to such a large number that they are meeting at the different members houses with difficulty, and it was mentioned by the president Mrs. Eva C. Burton that plans will soon be formulated to build or purchase a club house for the benefit of the large membership in view of this fact the membership fee has been raised to five dollars and the president, has appointed a very strict and ridgid credential committee, so that just the mere fact that one is from Chicago will not be enough to enter, but a member must be approved by a majority of the club.

A similar testimonial was made him on the occasion of his seventieth birthday. Meharry Pres. Scores Lack Of Interest In Dental Profession By Negroes Nashville, Tenn. Aug. 21—(By A. N.P.)—In a statement issued to the press here Tuesday morning by Dr. John J. Mullowney, president of the Meharry Medical College, the lack of a sufficient number of dentists and the lack of interest on the part of Negro youths who are qualified to pursue the study of dentistry in the profession, were scored severely and deplored. The fact that less than fifty Negroes graduated from the various dental colleges of the country gave rise to the statement on the part of Dr. Mullowney, who pointed out that of the number graduating in June, 21 completed the course at Meherry, and 19 at Howard University, Washington, D.C. TRAFFIC STATION "This presents a very tragic and deplorable situation," declared Dr. Mullowney. "There is a distinct need of dentist among Negroes throughout the country and the number who graduated last June would hardly replace those who have died the year or retired from active practice on account of age or other reasons. "Equally as tragic is the lack of interest on the part of Negro students who are qualified to pursue the profession in taking up the work. The waiting lists of practically every professional school in the country is over loaded with applications for the college of medicine and surgery, while there is a scarcity of students in the dental schools. "The reason for this is more than I am able to determine. The dental field offers one of the most promising careers both from the standpoint of financial returns and opportunities to render real service. Each year we received a large number of letters from prominent citizens in various cities and localities urging us to send some of our dental graduates to them, pointing out that unless the Negro people can get competent well-trained dental workers own group we be forced to patronize white dentists and that splendid source of income and of service will fall from the Negro group." After deploring the situation, Dr. Mullowney asserted that if this source of income was removed from the Negro group, the group will have only the members themselves to blame. Diligent efforts are being made by Mehery to interest a large number of college graduates to enter the profession of dentistry and the facilities for such training have been greatly improved, and the school is rated as a Class-A institution. CHICAGO PHYSICIAN MAKES SIMILAR CHARGE Some weeks ago while attending to business here, Dr. S. W. Smith, prominent physician and surgeon of Chicago Illinois, made the same charge which Dr. Mullowney did. Dr. Smith said that Meherry graduates everywhere were being urged to influence a larger number of men and women to pursue the course in dentistry. Grand Master, Knights Of Templar, Urges Members To Build On Solid Foundation Chicago, Aug. 21—(By A. N. P.)—Albert R. Lee, grand master of the Knights Templar, Prince Hall affiliation of North America, which was in session here during the past week in his triennial address, urged the members of the organization to build upon a foundation of solid business principles. “If we build upon the sands of unsound business,” said Grand Master Lee, “when the storms come our edifice will fall, because it was not built upon solid and enduring business principles,” he must come in a new business way to give employment to our own; combine politically and demand politically emoluments; we must combine and give contracts and deal only with contractors who employ our people. Indianapolis,印, Aug. 21—By A. N. P. If recommendations of Albon L. Holsey, secretary of the National Negro Business League, which meet here in its 30th annual session Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, are adopted by Negro Grocers of the country, Colored Merchants Association, already operating in Montgomery and Selma, Alabama, and Winston-Salem, N. C., will be established in thirty cities. Such organizations would link up 500 Negro grocers in a wide chain which would make possible the distribution of at least 1,000 more of our people in clerical, selling, and administrative work. It would offer an immediate, valuable, and concentrated market for certain products now manufactured by Negroes. Negro banks, Negro newspapers and all other agencies in our group would directly or indirectly benefit." Three hundred business men and women from New York to California and Minnesota to Florida, joined by hundreds of Indianapolis people, spent three days in the serious considerations of the problems confronting both races setting forth for the deficits of retailers and offering definite suggestions for remedying the situation. On the other hand, were retailers, wholesalers, teachers of economics, experts in cost accounting, advertising and other interested in the changing methods of store management, and distribution of produce. Following the presentation of papers open forum discussion was held in which divergent views on the causes of the present status of Negro business and the possible remedy were voiced. There were those who expressed the opinion that Negro business is justified in making a race loyalty plea; while others believed that the Negro should cease selling race pride and sell service, quality, and courtesy, pointing out examples of Negroes whose trade knows no color line. Business should be business these said and the Negroes should seek trade without regard to race, and not complain because all the Negroes may not trade with them. Delegates to the meeting stated that it was the most interesting and best attested that the League has held in recent years. Speakers were well prepared and audiences appreciative and responsive freely participating in the open forum discussions. The speeches more, factual, scientific, and less inspirational than in former meetings. A sense of having accomplished some accompanied each session. At the Friday morning session loving cups were presented to representative of Louisville, Waco, Texas, and Anne Arundel County, Maryland, winners in the National Negro Health week contest sponsored by the League. To Louisville went two cups; one for the best observed rates of health week among cities of more than 100,000 population and the other for the best observation in all cities. Waco, Texas, won first place among cities of less than 100,000 and Anne Arundel among rural communities. Indianapolis, proved to be a most cordial host to the visitors. Not only were they welcomed to the city by Mayor Li Ert Slack and to the state by Otto G. Fifield, Indiana's youthful secretary of state; but by representatives of the schools, churches, organizations, and professions as well as by the hospitality of the people of the city. And of course by the Mme. Walker Manufacturing Company interest in whose magnificent new building the day sessions of the meeting were held. KEPT DOWN By Doris Who said the Negro is free? The Negro is not free yet, there is still a chain tied to him to keep him down. Why the Negro can't even stay at a hotel, unless it is a Negro Hotel. The Negro goes to school takes a Business Course or studies to be a teacher and she or he will have to leave his city and go to New York or Los Angeles or some place where the Whites have let the Bars fall half way Like in the city of Providence or Partucket, and other small places the Bars are still down in front of the Negro. But yet when the cry of War is heard the strong, swift footed Negro is put in front to fight for the Whites. But more and more, however, an intelligent realization has grown upon the Negro of the moral advantage that is his. "The need of business development is fundamental and anything that will encourage it, is worthy of our help and co-operation. The Unite States Department of Commerce has established a division of Domestic Commerce and appointed one of our number, Sir J. A. Jackson, as special Business Specialist. The purpose of this division is to encourage and aid small business concerns and our units should co-operate with the government in its laudable efforts to assist to help ourselves." The grandmaster reviewed the progress of the order during the past three years and outlined a program for the future, which included the plea to urge Negroes to combine their forces in the effort to promote the general progress of the group in America.

It is not conducted upon emotional grounds, rage appeal or idealistic friendships, but upon the foundation of service, values and efficiency. If your business is so adjusted as to provide these things, lines of demarcation between customers will not be very noticeable." "You must regard yourself as being exactly on the same level as everyone else engaged in your lines of business. There is no difference in your sources of supply the cost of operating business or in the matter of opportunities in marketing your output. Red yourselves of the psychological handicap of believing that you are at a discount because of being who you are or what you are. There is no place in the market or trade for self pity. "Meet competition with a smile, aspire to become as good as the best in your line. Use all methods that others use that may be of lightmate help, strengthen your organization so as to increase the opportunities for cooperation, and take on a determination to meet every established business standard, and you will be rewarded with a successful business."

PHONE Office, HU, 4425 Hoe, AX, 4K Wage--Six MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION LET'S SAVE OURSELVES We have here in Los Angeles several first class and up to the minute groceries and stores, with meat departments and vegetables included. These commodities are compelling, for be it remembered "man must eat." Therefore we can see no good reason why all of these stores should not maintain themselves to the highest degree and furnish employment to their fullest capacity. If they do not, we have no one to blame for this situation except ourselves. We point out to you the Pyramid Co-operative stores located at 26th and Adams St. and challenge any person to cite us a more complete and up to date stock carried in any other store in this city and the prices are just the same as any other store and in many instances better. Then why should our group hesitate and fail to give to such a stor their fullest support? We admit this situation is an enigma to us. We ask again, where do our professional men stand in these premises? They alone would enable this company to work full force if they would but give their support. We have been told the stockholders themselves need to be nudged so that they may realize their duty is to patronize their own stores 100 per cent. The race needs to realize the big import and give to these stores as mentioned about its fullest support. This will then gain for this race the missing link—"Economic Independence." THEIR BUSY SEASON There are weeds to be dug, crops to be cut, fences to be mended and cows to be milked, but down on the farm this is the season when mother is the busiest person alive. There are roasting ears in hampers brought from the fields, peas, tomatoes and cucumbers ready for canning; peaches, plums, early apples and blackberries in buckets, tubs and pans. The rich aromatic pungency of sweet spices, cinnamon, cloves and ginger fills the air. And in stained pulp bags dripping purple juices, white plates of golden brown discs in the sun, and full, steaming containers on the stove, there is promise of jelly, jam, preserves, pickle and sauce. Busy fingers peel, cut, slice and pit, stir, pour, bottle and cap, seeming never to ask or find a moment of relaxation. Quietly but hurriedly, for the fruit may spoil, the work is carried on until shelves are stocked with the good things that make a house a home. On a smaller scale canning is done in the city. Despite the development of wholesale preserving, nonsubstitutes for products prepared at home have been found. Even in the two-room, light housekeeping apartment one or two jars of peaches, plums or grapes reverently are being laid aside until winter comes again. THRILLS IN SERMONS There is a popular minister who made the bold boast in the presence of other men of the cloth, that nobody can go to sleep in his church while he is preaching. The secret of his success in this particular, he says, is that he makes his sermons so "thrilling" the congregation must listen and sleep leaves even the individual who goes to church Sunday morning before going to bed Saturday night. Certainly, modern ministers have made a great advance since the time of St. Paul. For one reads in the Book of the Acts: "And there sat in a window a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep; and as Paul was a long preaching, he sunk down with sleep, and fell down from the third loft, and was taken up dead." No doubt the deliverer of the "thriller" sermons confidently believes had he been filling Paul's pulpit on that Sunday morning a tragedy of Biblical times would have been averted. Though Paul may have been the first to possess this power to preach his congregation to sleep, he has had many imitators. In colonial days ushers in the Puritan churches were armed with long staffs with which they tapped nodding heads into wakefulness. The modern parishioner has the advantage of being permitted to slumber on, unless, perchance, he be a member of the church of the "thriller" preacher. One suspects the real secret of this preacher's success in keeping his audience awak is that he arrived at the end of his sermon just before the first head nods. AN EVER PRESENT DANGER Motorists should take note of the severe penalties being imposed upon drivers who through recklessness, carelessness or speeding, cause the death of pedestrians. Thousands are being indicted for manslaughter because the speed at which they were traveling when a fatal accident occurred constituted criminal negligence. No one who observes automobile traffic can fail to see that safe rates of speed are often exceeded and that it is chiefly watchfulness on the part of pedestrians that prevents many accidents in which a charge of manslaughter would ensue, justifying severe punishment. There is little doubt that many "unavoidable accidents" are due to neglect of drivers to exercise reasonable care—the sort of care the law says shall be used everywhere and at all times. Motorists cannot proceed in congested areas as if no one—man, woman or child—is ever going to step unexpectedly off the sidewalk or as if children at play are never going to fret to be cautious. The law contemplates that care shall be operated under proper control and that due regard shall be had for the fact that they operate on highways where there is always chance of accident. Were juries so disposed, strict enforcement of the laws would find more motorists in jail than now go there for disregarding their plain intent. All the more reason then, for pedestrians to look before they leap and for children to stay off the streets. A thoroughfare crowded with speeding cars is a poor place for the pedestrian to assert his rights. Ponce de Leon, who wished never to grow old, should have arranged to become a child character in the comic pages. It is only the cost of movie production which the producers are seeking to make more reasonable. Yet there are the plots. A local parent of six daughters, who is building a new domicile, has just notified the architects that the second floor might as well be all closets. According to an authority, every vowel in Hawaiian words is sounded separately, and we have been wondering how this would work out with an English specimen like "beauteous." If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened The dismissing of the libel case of editor H. L. Baggerly, Fresno, is a vindication of the right of the press to criticise the actions of public officials when there is no malicious intent. Editor Baggerly criticised the action of Judge O'Conner, in his Baggerly's, Los Gatos weekly, charging that the judge allowed social position and wealth to influence certain cases which came before him as police magistrate at San Jose. The judge sued for libel: The prosecuting officer, Deputy District Attorney Frank Waterhouse who, in moving for the dismissal, stated that Judge O'Conner was not charged with malfeasance, misfeasance or nonfeasance of office, nor was his integrity or his honesty attacked. He was congratulated by Justice of the Peace, Percy Moore. State Senator Herbert Jones, counsel for editor Baggerly, in addressing the court said: "We must not forget a bigger issue has been involved, the issue of the freedom of the press." We believe in the principle of fair criticism. It has been the tendency of some, in their occupancy of public positions, to enshroud themselves in mantles stamped with sacrosanct emblems. Reverence for our courts of justice is or should be, one of the fundamental principles of American citizenship. The dispensers of justice are but human and liable to the same mistakes of other humans. Men who occupy high stations in official life are no more exempt from mistakes than other men. Criticism, without malice, is one of the safeguards of the republican form of government. To take it away means the formation of oligarchic rule. ```markdown ``` Considerable opposition has developed to the building of the "Mission Rock" cold storage pier. It appears that certain interests have been advocating the building of the plant, or storage warehouse, at the produce terminal. Shipping experts claim that this site is unsuited for the loading of ships. Legislation has been enacted and the Governor has sanctioned the purchasing of the site and erection of the storage warehouse. Why the delay? With the growing importance of the shipment of California agricultural products to foreign markets there is dire need for the adequate provision in handling them. The valleys of the Sacramento and San Joaquin are heavy contributors to the shipments of produce and have a vital interest in the matter of adequate provision for the handling of their shipments. State supervision has proved efficient in the handling of harbor facilities. That is what the growers want. Aready the demand for the horticultural and agricultural products of California have reached the stage where ample provision must be made for their transportation in order that their destination may be reahed while in perfect condition. The tropical and semi-tropical countries have, in most minds, been associated with the growth of certain fruits and agricultural products, but the products of California have been shipped to far off New Zealand, the Orient and even penetrated the heart of India on experimental shipmnts. Proving that with the creation of new markets the cry of over-production will have been solved. We have been asked, "Was it the wise thing, or was it statesmanship, in Congressman DePriest advocating the forming of a 'Negrb' political party?" In the first place the Honorable Congressman MADE NO SUCH PLEA. He was grossly misquoted. Those who are always looking to misrepresent and whose wish is at all time father to the thought, garbled a sentence and sought to endow the Congressman with imbecility. In recent speech Mr. DePriest advocated the centralization or consolidation of the Negro vote in certain localities in order that the vote might accomplish some concrete object. In those sections where—we might say—the Italian vote is strongest they select an Italian to represent them. So with other racial conditions. It is the ballot that counts and unless it is used with wisdom and discretion it avails naught. Too often the racial vote is so divided that no recognition is ever gained politically. The consolidation of a vote under certain conditions, is far from the organization of a separate political unit. We do not advocate the political support of any person because of racial identity unless all other qualifications balance. Under those conditions we would advocate support of the Race candidate. Believing him best suited to our needs. Was it his desire to save souls or did he hate to lose his grip on a fat salary? It appears that the pastor of a Baptist Church, Evanston, Ill., was so enamoured of his flock that he would not abdicate when they so requested and they had to seek the aid of the courts to unfasten the tenacious grasp. It seems a travesty on the temples of Christian worship when the aid of material courts are appealed to in the settlement of affairs. Is it any wonder that the churches as now conducted, have ceased to have any spiritual appeal? No wonder that the young people of the time are drifting away from church influence. Spirituality no longer beckons to worship nor does its beacon light shine from the tower. Acknowledging that there must needs be a material side in the maintenance of churches; it should be subordinated to that spiritual side for which the church was ordained. As it is understood by some: Temples of worship were planned for the purpose of spiritual meditation. Something to bring one into closer communication with God. As at present conducted the spiritual is subordinatel to the material, and the betterment of humanity subjected to personal aggrandizement. When a preacher has lost his influence for good with those who depended on his spiritual guidance, he ought to leave without being forced out by the courts. courts. Does crime pay? Most criminologists say not. When one scans the record of criminals and makes a survey of the cases involved; it becomes more convincing than ever, that there is a nemisis which, soon or late, exacts the toll. One of the most striking cases is that of the young man recently arrested at San Andreas for participation in one of the most brutal, murderous banditries in the annals of American civilization. At his home, he was one of the most exemplary husbands and fathers. He was respected by the citizens of his community for his seeming integrity and straighttowardness. Abroad, his fiendish acts have no parallel. In bank robbery in Colorado, it is reported that he led in the killing of three persons. In the foray he received a wound which proved his Nemesis. A shot through the jaw which left a scar. The physician, who the "Gang" lured from his home to treat the wound, was ruthlessly killed. Thousands of dollars were gained in the course of his banditry. But, Did it pay? That is one case only: There are thousands of others. Soon or late, the toll is exacted. Up at the Folsom prison they have a garden and one little patch is planted in the lucious piece de resistance, better known as water melon. Among the boarders at the Bastile are two known as Fields and Shannon. Mr. Fields acknowledges his African ancestry and Mr. Shannon cleaims the heritage of Erin. The sight of that melon patch lured Fields and he fell for the tempter. Shannon appointed himself guardian over the patch, may be it was in defense of the green, and when Fields advanced to the attack Shannon armed himself to repel the invasion. One picked up the shovel and the other grabbed the hoe. When the combat ended one was in the prison hospital and the other in the prison dungeon. Watermelons? They are still on the vine. Prohibition is exacting its toll. Fanaticism seems to have gained the upper hand and will not heed the handwriting on the wall. Advocates of temperance become alarmed when they see the stability of our government being undermined through the stubbornness of intolerant fanaticism. Prohibition as now enforced, is a menace to the social fabric of the nation. Juggle the figures as we may, we find no decrease in alcoholic consumption. The biggest contributors to the "Dry" regime are the bootleggers. Recent raids have shown that entire communities of hundreds are engaged in the illicit manufacture crites. Hirs in abundance and breakers and scoffers at the law, and distribution of the poison now flooding the markets. Hypoare the brood of prohibition. Murders and homicides traceable directly to the influence of the vile intoxicants have ceased to be news. Recently a boy eleven years of age was killed by the explosion of a bottle of 'home brew' that he was carrying along with his father's lunch. The Crime Commission appointed by President Hover is making a comprehensive survey of the situation and it is to be hoped will give to the nation some practical solution. We have not heard of any great scramble for the post of Minister to Liberia, made vacant by the recent death of Hon. William Francis, Minnesota. That position is one of the poorest paid and least desirable of any within the gift of the United States government. It has been taken up by men who considered it obligatory that some effective liaison between the United States and Liberia be maintained. Those men, like Col Young, James Curtis and William Francis believed that they could effect a better understanding between the governments than men of alien race. It has been a sacrifice. This government has not made the provision it should for the furthering of the health and comfort of its representative in Liberia. With the development of the Firestone interest his duties have become more and more exacting. President King is being criticised severely for his alleged participation in the practical peonage of Hinterland natives exported under a contract plan for labor exploitation. A survey of the situation will be made by representative committee appointed by the United States, Liberian government and League of Nations. Speaking of politics: There is great opposition developing against the election, or slated election, of Claude Huston, Tennessee, as chairman of the Republican National Committee. If there is any man in this country who is thoroughly injected with virus of colorphobia, it is Claude Huston. No difference the ability or what the capability. if you are "off color" that settles the matter with Hustor. But what is the difference? That question is asked in all seriousness. What is the difference who is or who is not elected to the chairmanship. You will have just as much representation with the one as with the other. Aside from the deceased "Link" Johnson, who represented the state of Georgia on the committee, the Race has had a couple of "Rubber Stamps." The national situation is a little too big to handle with success. Better bend our energy to the study of local affairs. There are officials—city, county and state—who need far more attention than national officials. When they get you to looking afar you are distracted from what you should see at home. A very prominent man in the sphere of business was asked to place a competent man of color in a position never before held by one of his race. "I am afraid that it might create a friction and cause an ill feeling," he said. "Not that I have any particular objection to the man, and am fully aware of his capability to handle the position, but I am afraid that an unpleasant situation might develop." "How do you know that, you never having tried?" was the rejoinder. "How do you know that any unpleasant situation might, or will, arise? Don't you think that you are prejudging the situation? It lies entirely with you." He tried it. There was no friction and matters went along as before. Of course for a few days there was a novelty in seeing another, non-white, in the position. That novelty soon died away. So its goes without saying, the fault lies in the prejudgment of employers. It is no always the employees who hold objections. Very soon the summer will have past and with it the numberless "Grand Conventions." It will be worth the while to take a retrospective glance after a while, and see to what extent they have been of benefit to a struggling people whose economic condition is worse than that of any other group of American citizens. "Relieving the sick and burying the dead" are acts of humanity. But with the advent of racial sick, accident and life insurance companies that feature is no longer an urgent one. Then why not bend the energy to creating a situation whereby the race may benefit from commercial and business efforts. As our "fraternal" orders grow in wealth and influence the main object seems to be for a lot of parasites to hold on to lucrative offices and suck the life blood from the treasure, placed in their keeping by trusting people. We never have had, nor never will have, one modicum of respect for the creature who makes "Fraternalism" his source of livelihood. It is to be hoped that some concrete plan will be outlined whereby the people—our people—will be benefitted. to represent medical ideas gathered practically every corner of the globe. Dr. L. A. West is president-elect of the Association and New York's brilliant young surgeon, Dr. Peter M. Murray is director of clinics. Our own Dr. Ruth J.

Negroes subscribe for and advertise in "The Times" and yet as a group of some sixty thousand individuals living in the city of Los Angeles we have not gained one iota of respect from this powerful newspaper. THERE SHOULD be a cure for every cancer. The only cure we see ahead for this growing disease of disrespect on the part of "The Times" is the establishment of an equally powerful newspaper owned and controlled by Negro, capital with which to slap back, not in the way of mud slinging but honest, clean-cut competition that speaks louder than words. DENYING HIS GUILT to the last, Will Carter, 26-year old Negro, was electrocuted Friday morning at Kilby Prison for the alleged murder of Sam Harris, paymaster for Sloss-Sheffield Company, Birmingham. Carter's last statement, even after the rope was around his neck—"I am not guilty of this crime, but my soul is right with God," brought no appeal to the blood-thirsty hangmen of Kilby, Ala., where the unfortunate man paid the terrible price. In the same Alabama paper in which this appeared there was an appeal to reason in behalf of a white college professor, married and the father of a family, who had hammered to death his college girl sweetheart, whom he now claimed him dope. The setting of this tragedy was Ohio. I was been in the same location where Carter met his fate, no doubt the Professor could be saved from the expense of a trial and its cast by using a black man as his alternate for the occasion. N. A. A. C. P. Urges Protection of Man Extra-dited Form Chicago To Texas On Murder Charge New York. Aug. 16.—A communication to the National office of the N. A. A. C. P. from Fort Worth, Texas, brought the information that threats of mob violence and even lynching had been made against Tenella Moore who had been returned to that city from Chicago, extradition having been granted on August 3rd. Moore is charged with the murder of George Turner, bicycle policeman, in May, 1928. The Association sent the following telegram to Governor Moody: "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People respectfully urges that you exercise executive power and protect Tenella Moore while in jail awaiting trial at Fort Worth, Texas, charged with killing George Turner. Information has come to this office that threats of mob violence and lynching had been made against him." A similar telegram was sent to the Sheriff of Fort Worth.

Dahs whah de cotten corn, and sweet potatoes grow Dahs whah de birds warble sweet in de springtime Dahs whah dis ole darkey's haht does long to go." Within the city limits of the great city of Chicago; the second city of the United States, one of the greatest commercial centers of the world, noted for its great stock yards and packing industry. I strain my eyes in expectancy. For miles out, before entering the city proper, I expected much activity; the rumbling of the huge trucks on the rumbling of hugs trucks on the highways, congestion of traffic, the noise of drivers belching in the other for the right-of-way. The tooting of impudent auto-horns, mixed in with the warning of the train engine as it pulled and blowed into shed. Surrounding all, I expected small stacks belching heavward in that their black fur; the substance that has caused Chicago to be known as the "Smoke City." In the suburbs, I imagined quiet villages, the rolling green of shaded lawns, wide streets bordered by long armed shade trees. Instead, there was an emptiness. A wide stretch of land sporting an occasional house, a border of tall dark trees in the distance. A sudden curving of railroad tracks, a quick glimpse of congestion of old commercial building before we swerve into the Union Station. A big crowd, general confusion, grabbing of bags by red caps. Yes they were RED CAPS alright. I decided after blinking my several times in uncertainty. Yet, I stand with my mouth a-gap and eyes stretched, feeling very strange indeed as I note pale skins under red caps, instead of brown. The color combination greeted my nerves, my aesthetic sense received a shock. A suspanic seized me in the chest, choking my throat. I stood bewildered wondering if they would take my bags. Too dumfounded to ask assistance, not being noticed in the mob that surged back and forth around me, I picked them up, rushing headlong following the crowd up the steps into the white beauty of the Union station. "Would the shiny white columns of stone go on up into endless space or stop somewhere midway the heavens with a final flourish of carved beauty?" I thought, as I gazed from the tiled floor to the place where the roof and column held each other in sculptures grandeur. Oceanic space, across which heels clicked and clattered, opened into various shops and niches of comfort. However, only conscious was I of all this, my mind was concerned more with the finding of my cousins who were expected to meet us there. The telephone at hand gave information that they sought us at another station. A yellow taxi awaited us at the door of the waiting room. "Very convenient," I thought, as I stepped out into its enclosure. A quiet falling of misty rain added to the general greyness of appearance of musty old buildings that reared their time-worn heads wearily up. I shivered and drew my very skin close to me as the car glided tumbling ruins of old apartment houses on So. Wabash and State Streets. SO THIS IS STATE STREET State Street, Chicago! How often had the name conjured up, even in the mind of my childhood days: visions of the height of resplendent Afro-American life. There the dan A VISIT TO THE MAMMOTH SILVER MINES A VISIT TO THE MAMMOTH SILVER MINES BY: JOHN E. PROWD It was last Saturday, August 17th, that four automobile, bearing Angelenans and Pasadenans, headed in a North-Easterly direction. Their destination was the Mammoth Silver Mines, located at Indian Creek, in the Plute Mountains, Kern County, about 175 miles from Los Angeles. The party left in secunds; the first, at 12:30 P. M., consisted of two machines—a Ford coupe, driven by Mr. J. A. Chavis, accompanied by Mr. R. W. Head, a Studebaker sedan, driven by Mr. J. A. Evans, accompanied by his wife Mrs. R. W. Head, and Mrs. S. B. Jackson. The second part of this cavalcade left at about 7:30 P. M. and consisted of one machine, a Dodge sedan, carrying a lone occupant, Mr J. G. Roons, a Mining Engineer and Geologist, and to an extent one of the owners of the last two vast times. The last and remaining end of the party left at 8:30 P. M. and consisted of one machine, a Durant sedan 'conveying Mr. E. B. Patterson, one of the influences at these mines and your humble writer, J. E. Prowd. The first section arrived in camp at 11:00 P. M. (Saturday); the second, about 4:30 A. M. (Sunday) and the third about 5:30 A. M. (Sunday)—all safe and unharmed. It was indeed a great pleasure and relief after an all-night journey to arrive at a camp so spacious and so very attractive by its two large, newly-built shacks with large rooms, which were very clean and inviting. Breakfast was in progress when we arrived and of course we joined in on ours. These mines—The Mammoth Silver Mines—consist of 16 claims, covering an area of 320 acres; are located in the Piute Mountains; are situated at an elevation of approximately 4,162 feet; capitalized at $500,000.00 and incorporated under the laws of Nevada. It was with much interest and excitement that we got away from camp at about 8:00 A. M. to go and inspect the mountain of gold, silver, and antimony that is even still higher than the camp site, the apex of which reaches 5,245 feet, which has large development transportation tunnel giving approximately 1100 feet depth on ore when property is ready for large development, according to Mr. Kroon. The history of the mines, like all mines the world round, is replete with its romance, intrigue and law suits, and is said to have had its beginning with its discovery in 1906 by cow boys. There are six tunnels, which represent over 1100 feet of development so far. One of these tunnels has a railroad and dump cars; there is also a compressor at the entrance to this tunnel. Mr. Kroon is very enthused over the mine and claims gold, silver and antimony to be their chief deposits with a milling grade ore of $35.00 per ton for the gold and silver and antimony value 10%. He further states that the company intends to install within the next few weeks a pilot mill to be used until the property has been developed to the place where its production will warrant its use of a larger mill. "There is no doubt in my mind," said Mr. Kroon, "but that in a few years these mines will be the biggest producers in California. We have found the gold, the silver, and the antimony, all we need now is the necessary machinery to produce and develop our strike. Most mines have the machinery and have to find the ore, but with us it's just the other way around." dies "strupted their stuff" before blushing maidens that strolled by, dolled to the 'nth degree. Shops, owned or controlled but most certainly manned by dark-skinned folk, flaunted their wares in the most attractive way. Theatres, in which talent under skins of black was given a show, beckoned to the pleasure-seeker. The State Street of my dreams, was to me, Chicago. low, the slump in my thought as we watched the quilted and sizzled on the wet streets. How squalful those hard, bloated faces of the overindulged, gory bodies of loose gowned women that sprawled on the door-steps of ghostly old apartment houses. A sudden spasm of pain closed my eyes as I realized the life of the State Street of Reality. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened The closest railroad—the Southern Pacific—is at Caliente, 22 miles from the Mammoth Silver Mines, and is very easily reached through the big canyon, over whose hillsides run the finest of dirt roads. The nearest town where groceries and supplies may be secured is about 7 miles from camp and is known as Loraine. The mines, when operating on a big scale, will not be handicapped for water, as there is much of this on the property. Mr. Kroon states that there are just about twenty-five stockholders in the company, and a good many of these—among whom are some of our very prominent professional and business men—have purchased the private stock of some stockholders of the company as no permit has been secured yet in California to place it before the public. He states further that the company is undergoing a complete reorganization in its official staff and that within a few weeks the officers, directors, etc., will be known to the public; along with the names of the various stockholders. All in all the trip was a most pleasant and intellectual one, as we profited much from the information gained from the 27 years' experience of Mr. Kroon as a mining engineer in all sections of this country; and also a great pleasure, as we were permitted to look into the familiar faces of many of the directing genius of Santa Clara Ranch, which brought reminiscences of the days when colonization in Mexico was the fireside topic in nearly every household in California; days of which we have heard much, read much and seen much—good old days those but gone. As In A Looking Glass By Alice Dunbar-Nelson (For the Associated Negro Press) One of the joys' which await me Monday morning is the Christian Review of Philadelphia. And that is mainly because of Nannie Burroughs' column, "From a Woman's Point of View." The week is only well-started when I have had Nannie's reactions to the problems which we live with- mothers make, manners in public—all the things which we know so well, and practice so ill. This week the caption is "Sidewalk Conventions". The opening sentence, "Entirely too much of the business of our conventions is attended to by sidewalk Solomons," gives an idea of the sermon to be preached. And those of us who go up and down in the land attending conventions know only too well the spectacle of the convention overflowing on to the sidewalk with the consequent loss of dignity and decorum of the whole affair. Before the brothers and sisters go to another convention, and there are legion yet to be held before August and September have passed—they should read Nannie Burroughs' opinion of the "Sidewalk Solomons," and her slogan, "Clear the sidewalk! The Convention was called to meet IN the church." Poor Mary McLane! Some of us remember a thrill she gave us in the days of our youth with her defiance of law and custom and religion. Mary McLane was the precursor of the present day flapper, but she was twenty or twenty-five years ahead of her time. There had not yet been a war-to provide the Revolt of Youth or the Post War Product. Mary voiced the inarticulate longing of millions of young women, who did not dare look beyond the horizon prescribed for them. But she died, the other day, alone and obscure and poverty-strenken. His gospel came too early, and when the fire of her flame had burned low, she had not the strength to raise, and claim her place with the moderns, where she really belonged. Mary's revolt was too egocentric to live. It may be claimed that Byron, too, was egocentric, but he made at least the gesture of service—and his poetry bore the hall-mark of genius. Poor Mary McLane, built up her egocentric world of revolt without the genius to maintain it or the spirit to pretend that hers was a role of service. Hence, her collapse. Let all those who would lead a revolt take notice. Here is an interesting phase of our national life that is perhaps little known to us—the Migrants who work in the canneries of the country. The Council of Women for Home Missions is greatly concerned with this problem. A letter from Edith E Lowery, Secretary of the Migrant Work, tells interestingly in response to an inquiry to the method of the Council: "We are very glad indeed to tell you more of this project being carried on among the great army of boys and girls who go with their parents to canneries or to truck farms or perhaps fruit ranches for the canning or picking seasons. While there they live in crude shacks or tents. If old enough they work in the field or cannery, if too young, they run wild all day. Tiny babies are found in the canneries with their mothers; sometimes they are left in the shacks with an older sister or brother. In some parts of the country these families migrate from the cities in the spring, returning in the late fall. In other sections, they are constantly on the move, and as a result, the children know little or northing of the meaning of church, home, or school. This large group, approximately a million and a half in number, includes the Italian, Polish, Negro, Luthianian, Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, and those of American stock. Needless to say, this drifting population presents grave problems. Since 1920 the Council of Women for Home Missions has been carrying on Christian social service work at various centers where these migrant family groups are employed. The program is broad, including health, recreation, and religious education. While the older members of the family are cared for in foster and babies' cared for at the center, and are busied with things worthwhile. Many times college students have served and in some places where needed those with a bit training and experience have been ni charge. "This year in California work is being carried on at Walnut Grove among the Japanese and Chinese migrants, at Hemet with Mexicans and Americans, and with the Mexicans at Kingsburg and Dos Palos, in the San Joaquin and Imperial Valleys. Then in Oregon in the hop yards of Oewberg, and in the Hood River Valley during the apple season centers are planned. In Maryland at Hurlock, we have work with Negroes and in Delaware at Rehoboth and Camdem with Polish, in connection with canneries. In New Jersey at Pemberton a center is to be organized for the cranberry season, and at Whitesbog for the blueberry and cranberry season." Little, Gypies of the fruit," Arthur, Gleason calls them. We learn that thirteen church denominations are co-operating in this work. It is an interesting report of a little known situation. Surely no better place for money or service could be found than in lightening these lives that are being spent to provide the world with delicacies for its plate. The Betrayal and Crucifixion BY: WRIGHT E. HARRIS, B. S. B. The Garden prayer of agony! The traitor of the chosen twelve, Judas betrayed the Lord for money. Aid led the mob through the delve. Into Gethsemane where He prayed "The will of God on earth be done." After He prayed the rabble laid Its murderous hands upon God's Son From the high priest to Pilate Gory hands led the Lord. As the rabble cried: "Seal His fate." Pilate washed his hands in a water- Bord. The thief Barbasbah he let go free. And gave the Master to the crowd Who mocked and led Him—carry a tree. A crown of thorns—toward Calvary's shroud. They sailed His hands and feet to wood. For hours He hanged upon the tree. Jesus gave His life as the cross stood. On Calvary's hill all souls to free. The apostle Peter, Said he loved Jesus Christ But denied him in the morning Before the cock crowed thrice. One of Christ's disciples Judas Iscariot by name Betraved his Lord and Master To his eternal shame. 7. There are Jeckil's and Hydes' In the Church to-day That come on Suncay To sing and to pray. 8.

We are referring the same to John L. Derrick and George Watkins to locate those four colored mayors credited to California: 69 COLORED MAYORS IN THE New York—Sixty-nine towns in the United States have colored mayors and all colored governments, according to George W. Harris, editor of the News over radio station WNYC, last week. Alabama has six colored towns, Arkansas three; California four; Florida, two; Georgia six; Illinois, two; Iowa, one; Kansas, one; Kentucky, one; Maryland, two; Michigan, two; Mississippi, three; New Jersey, three; New Mexico, one; Tennessee, one; Texas, six; Virginia, five; and West Virginia, one. In addition to these sixty-nine town governments there are twenty-three settlements. One city, Miles Center, Ohio, has a colored mayor and a mixed government. S WEst 82 New York, Aug. 21.—James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, New York, made public today a letter written to Hon. George W. Wickersham, Chairman of the Commissin of Law Enforcement and Observance. The letter, dated August 12th, calls attention to a former communication sent the Commission, with accompanying data, relating to lynchings and crimes of violence against colored citizens and requesting that the N. A. A. C. P. be permitted to be represented before the Commission at such hearings as might be held. Specific inquiry is made as to whether either of the eleven fields of highly marked or special state by sub-committee of the Commission will cover the phases of lawlessness set forth in previous communications and data submitted to the Commission by the N. A. A. C. P. The Association's letter follows: "Hon. Geo. W. Wickersham, Chairman on Law Enforcement and Observance. "My dear Mr. Wickersham: "On June 19th, I wrote a letter addressed, through you, to the Commission on Law Enforcement and Observation, in which I called attention to the interest which this Association, on behalf of the Negro公民 of America has in the question of law enforcement. I also sent to you documents relating to the lynchings and crimes of violence committed with impunity against colored citizens, to legislative infringement upon the Negroes constitutional rights, and to judicial procedure and decisions which fortify the belief in certain parts of the country that citizens of the United States may be discriminated against in the administration of the law on the ground of race and color. "Following the announcement of the Commission, through the press, that public hearings would be held in New York and other cities, made the request that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People be permitted to be represented before the Commission at such hearings to expound and amplify the matter contained in the documents sent you with a view to informing the Commission fully on those aspects of race relations in America which threaten public peace and food order and which have been and still are productive of crime, violation of law and social maladjustment. "I note in the New York Times of August 5th, that the Commission has marked out eleven fields of study and appointed from the membership of the Commission sub-committee to operate in each field. I am writing to inquire if either one of these eleven fields of study which have been marked out will cover the phases of lawlessness set forth in the communications and data submitted to the Commission by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

The dispatch in referencing to the author, says, "Walter White, author of 'Rope and Fagot' is one of the foremost contemporary Negro writers. He considers that, despite the decrease in actual numbers of lynchings of Negroes, the brutality of the lynching will still make lynching one of the most serious problems that face the United States today." The Daly Herald states that "The book should be a document, of some social importance." It has, also been announced that VU: Journal de la semaine, of Paris, of which Lukács Voeel is the editor, will run portions of the book serially, with accompanying illustrations of American lynchings.

The world seemed so small and life was a sweet. And my brothers they all humanored me. We lived in a land of make believe Just myself, Son, Bud and Clea. Never again shall we romp play and sing. Down the long and winding lane. We shall gather in flowers, fruit and nuts, Together never again.

Today I'm sad For death took my father and son. And dear little Bud is completely inane I fear his lip's work is near done. The songs we now sing are not so gay For our tenor and bass harmony.

ENN STATION GET NEW TITLE Red caps employed by the Chicago adriftwestern Depot, are no longer called porter by the traveling public gleaming brightly in large gold letters across their caps is inscribed the word Attendant, the writer thought this was a aplendid idea. And asked the head Attendant how the change cape about. He said. We have been fighting for this regition for some time and at last we have been rewarded for the battle we have waged to get this title Passangers seem to have more respect for you when they see the new title, and the name Geo or red cap is gradually being dropped in this terminal. It seems that this would be a aplendid move for the Red Caps and Janitors Association to get behind. You can get any thing you want from your employees if you go after it in the right way. BROTHERHOOD OF SLEEPING CAR PORTERS TO GIVE ANNUAL DANCE many of this nature should not be taken so greatly to heart. Anything that is published in these columns is done so with a good spirit. We try to publish facts and the truth. When we are wrong, and our statements are proven wrong, we are always willing to retract. But such things as threats, black hand letters and the like, cannot stop the freedom of the press, and they will never be able to stop the freedom of speech in this column, there are many things yet to be published, when the truth and positive facts are ascertained. The writer ran across porter Taft in Detroit with a parity from Fargo. M.D. Taft purchased a red hot front in Detroit and will show the right at the latest when he returns to Los Angeles. PULLMAN SUPPRIETY PASSER AWAY Mr. J. L. Arthur, former Pulmanian Superintendent of the Pulmanian Company. Los Angeles, passed quietly away Wednesday morning at his residence. Mr. Arthur had been sick for some time, and was forced to retire from active work at his office about a year ago. Coming here from Kansas City soon after his transfer to this district, he began complaining to such an extent, that his doctors advised him to leave the office where he could get the full benefit of medical treatment. However, from time to time he seemed to rally but he was never his former self again. Just recently the porters of this district took up a collection for Mr. Arthur to express their appreciation. This had not been completed at the time of his death, and it is thought that the money will be used to purchase a floral piece. His death will be regretted by all the porters of this district, as he was fair and just in all his transactions with porters who came before him during his administration. By: Edw. M. Thomas Harvey Young has slipped in a bid and gone back from 3 till 11. Louis Gay is on the sick list.

Musical— One of the big things rendered by Negroes in Pasadena recently was the concert given last Sunday afternoon at the Rose Hundreds of lutheran churches on singing as the clausal chorus sang. Spiritians and classics both found their place on the program. Now we have Miss Belen Smith singing Spiritids with such feeling. Now we have Mr. Fadice singing "Old Black Joe" and goring out the part in good opens fashion. This song was an appropriate vehicle for Mr. Fadice's rich bass voice. He appears to be one of our best basso cantantos. This time it is Mrs. Cora L. Morrow, rendering the popular "Italian Salad." This number is a medley of cantos italianos gathered from here and there and strung together like so many beads on a string. The song varied in mood as well as tempo. At times it was recitative, then dramatic; even coloratura in places. The demands on the vocalist were great, but Mrs. Morrow sang in good musicianly fashion. The organization of the chorus was the work of Mr. Ed. Sanders. Mr. Sanders is known from coast to coast as a promoter of large and successful choruses. Mr. Wesley Jones of Wesley Chapel was the director for last Sunday's concert. Mrs. Alice Buggs-Standish is the accompanist. The Pasadena Musician's League held its basement at the home of Mrs. Cora L. Mowry. Mrs. Ada Williams is the president of the organization. At present the membership is only open to women. A musical, under the auspices of the Junior Stewardess Board of the First A. M. E. church, will be given at 8:00 p. m. August 21, 1929. Many features await the music lover. Among them will be a popular violinist pupil of Madam Murdock. HUmbolt 8718 Res. AX. 8339 John E. Cooper DENTIST Athletics— Reports have it that "Slick" Stocks and Paul Ford are still batting "in the money" to hold up the reputation of California colored athletes. One of the "unusuals" that appear once in a decade appeared Tuesday afternoon when the Olympic Giants came near defeating "Kelly's Cubs." Out of pure joyishing a wager was made that a group of ex-Ball players could beat the organized Cubs. And they nearly did it, for the score was only 4 to 3 in favor of the Cubs. Mr. Kelly claims that half of his players were only second string men. And Manager Wiggins of the Giants said that his men did not have as much one minute's practice together. It is said that the Pasadena fins are desirous of staging a second game between these two teams in the near future. The line-up: (Olympic Giants): Mack Senior, 2b; Booker, p; Gentry, c; Harris, 1b; Ed. Morgan, 3b; Bettis, ss.; Brooks, lf.; Colline cf.; Bob Winslow, ff—Umpires, Gibbs and Mimms. THE MISSIONS OF ATHLETICS Carried to excess, athletes tear down the good they aim to establish; moderately indulged in their benefits are incalculable. Too much physical training often leads to abnormality, to-wit: enlarged hearts or chronic muscular stiffness. Many noted athletes have failed to quality in simple physical examinations: They were stale—burnt out, as sportsmen say. A proper amount of competitive running, jumping, and twisting is good for any one. The exercising tends to tone up one's system in general—The heart pumps faster; the blood flows more freely; the digestive organs function like new; the processes of elimination are accelerated. Many chronic sufferers would dispense with pills and physics were they to "take a brisk walk 'neath the stars," or condescend enough to have a good trotle just for health's sake. Moderate indulgence in athletics help to keep one physically (mentally and morally) fit The sportsman runs the risk of sprains and fractures, but the benefits derived from "the game" more than compensate for the scars and pains. In commercialized, professional athletics many are called but few are chosen. All are not called to be professional athletes, but all are called to a same amount of physical play, for herch mines are rested, bodies built, and morale strengthened. The co-ordination of minds and muscles is one of the crowning joys of the man and woman of action. Athletics properly pursued, develop such co-ordination. Grund was broken this week by the W. H. Harrison Company for the erection of three beautiful homes on Manzanta street of the Spanish type. One of the homes is to be built for Mr. and Mrs. H.
