1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1929 MAYOR PORTER SPEAKS ON THE SIDEWALK By C. A. B. THIS LETTER is personal and we truly hope that its publication will not embarrass our good friends of other days; but it stands for a ray of sunshine which we cannot help but pass on: "Dear Mrs. Bass: "This may seem a bit late to you, but really, is it ever too late to encourage one who deserves? And no one in all California knows any better just how much you do deserve that big word—CONGRELATIONS"—than we do. "Quite often we speak of those olden days in Miss Teague's Lunch Room, and what a happy family we were, in spite of our struggles. And my what a struggle yours was! But you have proven the harder the struggle the greater the glory. "Although we may not contact each other now as often as then, just know that these two old friends are still cheering you from the sidelines. And are saying congratulations on this milestone reached, and our hopes and prayers for many more to come. "Kindly inform when subscription expires, as we have lost knowledge of month when due. With all good wishes to yourself and the entire family, we remain. "Always the same, MRS. MIDDLETON and PAYNE." 1011 Lincoln Avenue. Pessadena, Calif. November 29, 1929. NEWS REACHED us to the effect this week that a Baptist Church (white) on Manchester Ave., displayed on its Eulletin a glaring invitation to its friends and patrons to come in Tuesday evening, December 3, to discuss race restrictions. To date we have not learned the reaction from said meeting but we would suggest that these white Christians who have secured their passports to Heaven, and still have time on their hands, use the same making intercession for separate quarters in the Gloryland. A NEW YCRK paper announced this week that through her attorney, William D. Cunnisham, Alice Jones-Rhinekender, wife of the spineless heir to millions—Kip Rhinglander—is seeking separation from her white husband. P. S. WOODS of Wasco, who was accounted by his wife and two children while driving his automobile into Bakersfield, collided with a Santa Fe train. Woods was slightly injured but his wife and children were killed. ```markdown ``` "Negro Cadet at West Point Denies Southingbury Pymors "West Point, N. Y., Dec. 2. — (U.P.) One Negro youth among nearly 1400 white cadets at the United States Military academy, Alonzo Parham of Illinois, has completed his first five months as a prospective army officer and has no complaint to make regarding his treatment. "He is getting a square deal, he said today, and has played basketball, football, baseball and several other sports. When the cadets go abroad to attend a football game, he goes along with his company. He was at Yale, Harvard and Notre Dame games this fall. He has a room to himself; that seems about the only difference in status between him and his classmates. Two cadets normally share a room." Those who attended Congressman BePriest's lecture when he was our visitor in Los Angeles will readily remember his statements concerning his part in the admittance of this young man of color, at West Point, and now we out here in the West are delighted to know that he is making good and that our Congressman's sanguin expectations are being reached to the extent that this great training school through this medium will realize that in order for the Negro to give his best to his country as a soldier he must be allowed to partake of some of the best in the matter of training. A COMMITTEE of representative citizens consisting of the following persons: Robert Owens; Rev. I. A. Moore; Clara C. Hulbsr; C. A. Bass; Normen Houston; C. H. Alston; Dr. H. C. Hudson, called up Mr. Ramish, the owner of the Lincoln Theatre, on last Monday, for the purpose of gaining first-hand information as to the apparent change in the policy of the theatre, in its change of management, whereby a member of the race was displaced and a white manager placed in his stead.

RAGLAND The Liberty Building-Loan Association, the leading financial institution of the race on the Pacific Coast, is probably among the first to adopt the policy of business expansion recently advocated throughout the country by President Hoover. This corporation, established nearly six years ago with barely $10,000 in capital, has through careful management built the resources of the organization to over $300,000. The fact that this institution has assisted thousands of small investors to lay the foundation for a comfortable financial future through systematic savings and has paid to these investors more than $30,000 in interest, has gained the whole-hearted confidence and support of the race in Southern California. Through its loan department hundreds of borrowers have been enabled to buy, build, remodel and refinance their homes, repaying the money borrowed in small monthly payments less than rent. So it is not only fitting, but gratifying that an expansion plan should be forthcoming at this time. The expansion program consists of a "1000 NEW ACCOUNTS CONTEST." This contest will be open to all of the depositors, investors and members of the institution. There will be awarded to the winners in the contest a Standard Hudson Sedan, fully equipped, first prize. Essex Sport Coupe, second prize. $500.00 Radio, third prize, to- (Please Turn to Page Two) Newton Street Vice Squad To save our lives we cannot bee why there is so much hesitancy and hold-back in making promotion or the assignment of the officers of our group to the Vice Squad or plain clothes work. We are sure they could catch more violators of these particular laws than the white officer can. They have proven their worth in the past and pray what is the matter now? True some have been suspended and must stand trial, charged with direlection of duty. No one can say they are guilty until they have had a fair trial. Even so, likewise white officers have been charged with the same offense, tried and found guilty, but this did not interfere with others on the job right on. Shubbert's rough riders will not fit in at Newton Street; it is made upon color and not on merit. We have been promised a square deal on merit and not color. We are not getting it! Why? We are going to find out. There is no use to tell us that there are none who can qualify among the several scores of the officers of our group along the lines above mentioned. LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1929 Ivan Harold Browning's Interview with Noted Newspaper Correspondent, London, England Special to The California Eagle. Special to The California Eagle. I have just had a most interesting interview with Richard Fletcher, the journalist, who was on the staff of the New York Times and the New York World, and who contributes to the best known English newspapers. Had he not informed me that he was an American I would easily have taken him for an Englishman. He was born in the United States, and his father was from Richmond, Ky. During America's participation in the war, Mr. Fletcher was the editor of the Curronicle, a monthly publication in New York which was launched by the late Ambassador Joseph Choate. Mr. Fletcher is a man of unusual personality, and I found him very broad-minded indeed along many lines. I feel quite fortunate in having been able to get his opinion and views along the color line. Richard Fletcher and the literary artistic circles of London are deeply stirred by the disclosure regarding the exclusion of Paul Robeson, the distinguished artist, who was somewhat emlabrassed in a famous London Grill Room recently, and it is through Mr. Fletcher that I am able to publish the Marchioness or Carisbrooke's views on this subject. Mr. Pletcher emphasized that the one thing the English people have always guarded jealously is their reputation for fair play, and this privilege is carried by the intellectual and aristocratic circles which exist, and have done for centuries, in the life of the great city of London. On November 4th, following the incident of Mr. Robeson, Lady Carlsbrook invited a distinguished company to the May Fair Hotel to a cocktail party to call the attention of the public and the press to the Joy of Life Ball, a great society charity event to be given on December 12th at the historic Covent Garden. The artists she engaged were Miss Nora Holt, who has been appearing at Soso's, and Leslie Hutchinson, who comes from the islands of Grenada, and who is one of C. B. (Ochrane's best known young artists. The distinguished people who accepted invitations were the Spanish, French, Italian and Polish ambassadors, and the Hungarian and Bulgar (Please Turn to Page Two) J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler, Will Receive Royal Reception Upon His Western Tour From his first stop at Phoenix, Arizona on to the Coast, indications point to the greatest reception for J. Finley Wilson, Grand Exalted Ruler of the I. B. P. O. E. of W., which has ever been accorded the head of any fraternal order in this entire country. The people are aware of the fact that J. Finley Wilson has demonstrated that he is the greatest organizer which the race has ever produced. That he has presented the world the most progressive fraternal organization for all time. His organization for education alone is one which has merited for him all of the greatness which has been bestowed upon him. His consistent fight for civil liberties but in its infancy, has brought forth great results for the race. Therefore the people are standing tip-toe awaiting his coming and there is no question that his reception will go down in history as one of the outstanding events for the Pacific slope. Leaving Phoenix on December 26 he will arrive at El Centro on the 27th where Imperial Valley will greet him with a monster reception and the grand hall, with a special exhibition of the Salton Sea Drill Team.

PRISON GUARD KILLED AFTER SLAYING NEGRO WOMAN Houston, Texas, Dec. 3—Mystery surrounds the killing of Wallace Bruce, a white prison guard, who was found shot to death a few minutes after he is alleged to have shot and killed Carrie Warren, a Negro woman. Tax Payers Guide Can Be Had by Calling at This Office Our very popular and busy Supervisor, Frank P. Shaw at our suggestion has furnished this office with several hundred copies of the Tax Payers Guide which can be procured by calling at this office. Every citizen should have one of these, in order that they may acquaint themselves with the activities of their own county and to know where the taxes are applied. These copies come to you free of cost from Los Angeles county and the courtesy of Supervisor Frank P. Shaw. Insane Cobbler Runs Amuck; Kills Cook and Himself In South Los Angeles, Watts, A. M. Devetak, who has long been considered off balance, justified the thought when on last Sunday he shot and killed Mrs. Ora Lee Rodriguez. who was employed by him as a cook for the past six months. He then in turn placed the muzzle of his gun to his own temple and literally blew out his own brains. The victim was married and the mother of two children, at 1459 East 109th Street. The tragedy happened on Main Street at Devetak's place of business right across from the police station. Devetak (white) was a foreigner and left a note saying he was being poisoned by his cook. It was indeed a most regretable and tragic ending and followed in its wake by anguish and despair. No triangle was involved, it was simply the act of an insane man, which as forestated had been considered as such for many months, but withal he was taken to he of the harmless variety. Mayor John C. Porter Will Speak at Second Baptist Church, Sunday, 7:30 P.M. M. Dr. T. L. Griffith, the progressive pastor of the Second Baptist Church, located at the corner of 24th and Griffith Ave. announces the appearance of Mayor John C. Porter as the speaker at the Sunday evening service of that Church. The subject of the Mayday discourse will be: "The Christian In Politics." The above subject coming from our distinguished chief executive will doubtless create a deal of interest, pastor Griffith therefore asks the friends to come early to avoid the rush and secure comfortable seats. A cordial invitation is extended to the public to come out and hear first hand the Mayor's message. Services start promptly at 7:30 P. Dear members, Board of Public Works, for the City of Los Angeles: Quite a number of the members of our particular group are employed in the garbage department of the city. It is passingly strange that no matter how intelligent, competent, or efficient, NOT ONE of them is allowed any sort of PROMOTION. We would like to know just "how comes" this sort of situation to exist. We are also informed there is a sort of Simon Legrene superintendent down at your garbage plant, who sets his men back three days' pay, if they per chance stop en route on a chilly morning to sit, a cup of coffee or secure a sandwich. To be more exact, this superintendent's name, as we have been informed, is Mr. Otner. To our mind this man's conduct is far more vicious than that of Simon Legrene, for who in this enlightened day would deny a worker, no matter how humble, the privilege of a sip of coffee who turns out at 6 A.M. to begin their day of arduous toil. Other occasions on which he seems to take pleasure in making things unhappy for his Cubed workers come to us not infrequently. We are for justice and a square deal, and shall always speak when we feel we are not receiving it. Page-Ten (By JAS. W. JENNINGS) Kid, Chocolate has long been the apple of many a fight manager's eye but the Kid has frequently strongly stated that he belongs to Luis Gutiérrez, his manager and friend, yet the poison squad of mangy pilots is working in its usual unerhanded way to bring about a break between the boxer and Gutiérrez if possible, steal the Cuban from his director. Happily, Chocolate pays no heed to their attacks on Luis, a thoroughly honest gentleman who has Chocolate's best interest at heart. All during last week the arsenic boys have had close friends of Chocolate pound into his head the idea that he is not being properly managed. "Think," they say in effect, "you are fighting in small clubs with boxers who are liable to land a lucky punch or get an unfair decision against you and you would be ruined as a great drawing card. You draw $1,500 or $2,500 of those kind of bouts when you could receive enough for one match against a good opponent to make up for thirty of those small club matches. "Guetierrez was offered $30,000 to fight Earl Mastro in Chicago. *Mastro* made to order for you, and what if you lose or draw, it's about time you lost a bout after 157 wins. "You are asked by the Garden to fight somebody. They want you for Al Ridgway, a pipe for you no matter what he weights, or Nel Tetlon, a light-tapping Englishman. You could grab yourself $30,000 for either bout. Sixty grand for two matches and you get an average of $2,000 apiece for thirty of them barn battles you fight in! Eldorado Gold-Star Mining Company 426-27 Bryson Building NEWSIE DINNER A NEWARK DERBY RACE By DAN SHAW I do know whether Herberts spacious room ever offers any fresher and more significant setting for a dinner than Thanksgiving dinner, given by Carlo Curtis for the hungry newsboys. Some of whom did not eat any breakfast for fear they would not have room for it. RACE COURSE Hill Street like it was the race course at Aqua Caliente. The Newsie broke all existing records for the hunderd yard dash to get in line that stood four acreast for a city block. Three thousand including a few old fellers made up the mob. Talk about one eyed Connelly the gate crasher, the old veteran crasher was not in it when the Newsie began crashing Herberts food emporium. One hundred boys from the Central Avenue district put a dinner under the table they will never forget. MOSBY BLUE BLOWERS GLOVERIED The setting was ideal for the famous pilot Mosby to instill pep into his incomparables. From the time the first dinner was served the Blue Blowers played until their collars wilted from presperation from hard work. A hit they made. The Drinkard trio offered three numbers of classic hoofing. Mr. Carlo Curtis had as guest Mrs. Margret Elliott, famous French actress who praises Josephine Baker very highly. Fred Solomon of Dance Hall fame, Mushy Callahan Junior Weiterweight champion, Al Lang and Patty Quiau a number of boxers were in attendance. Hiny Miller, Abe Miller, Augie Curtis, Joe Greenbury and Sam Jaffa and the famous Ted Frenchie, Authur Wenzel acted as master of ceremonies introducing Henry B. Walthal famous stage and screen star. Joe Fuschino, former Denver, Colorado newsboy who gave a character sketch of a wop at a baseball game, Ruth Renick, leading woman of the "Passing of Third Floor Back." And the dainty little Naomi Burston, M. LINCOLN THEATRE FAMILY NIGHT The newly adopted Family Nite policy of the Lincoln Theatre was inaugurated last Monday night with great success. For hereafter every Monday night at the Lincoln Theatre will be known as Family Nite, and an entire family, be it of two members or six, will be admitted to the theatre for only one dollar. No seats will be reserved. All the best seats in the house will be available at this startling price, and the first to reach te theatre will have their choice of the best seats. Regular prices with reserved seats will prevail on all other days of the week. "The Silent Witness" will be the next offering of the all-star Lafayette Players at the Lincoln. This great drama, written by Otto Harbach, noted musical comedy playwright, has proved an outstanding success wherever it has been played. It is a great story, and offers members of the Lafayette Players a marvelous opportunity for entertaining their audience. A young boy, accused of the murder of a college chum, comes up for trial. There were no apparent witnesses to the crime, and his own account of the affair is very incriminating. On the border of his conviction on the new staging experience brought to light a "silent witness," testimony which is clemant of the charges. During the trial, the prosecuting attorney discovers that the accused boy is his own illegitimate son, and this leads to a stirring climax and denouncement. Cleo Desmond will share starring honors in "The Silent Witness" with Andrew Bishop. She will be cast as the mother of the accused boy, and the unwedded wife of the attorney. It is a role comparable to "Madam X" and Miss Desmond's work as that character will long live in memory. SAN LUIS GIANTS HAVE WON AND LOST A GAME WITH THREE TEAMS IN WINTER LEAGUE. Affairs in the playing of the Winter League have taken an unexpected turn. First the Royal Giants won five straight games and then hit a slump; Shell Oil won five straights and then tasted defeat and now the Pirrone All-Stars after losing their first five games shake up their line-up and win five straight games which puts them in the position for first division opponents. A double win over the Royal Giants on Saturday and Sunday will put the All-Stars in the first division for the first time during the history of the Winter League and this is a prize for which the All-Stars will be fighting desperately. ROYAL GIANTS BEAT KELLY KARS In a campaign fighting to regain lost ground the Royal Giants took both games from the Kelly Kars last week. The Karmen lost the Saturday game 9 to 2 and the Sunday encounter 2 to 1 in the fastest sizzling game that has been played in the park this season. The Sundays game was a plipping with Ludolph, for the Karmen, pitching on even terms with "Bullet" Rogan who got away with the victory because of an error which enabled the Giants to make the extra run. The Karmen have shaken up their team and gave every indication that they still have the same fighting instinct of seasons past. The fans will do well to come out and watch the Kelly Kars for the remainder of the season. ALL-STARS HAVE GOOD CHANCE Pirrone's All-Stars believe that they have a good chance of knocking the Royal Giants out of second place by a double win in the coming series. They tase their chances on the fact that their pitching ace, Archie Campbell, who has won his last three straight games, can take the Giants on Saturday and that Pudgy Gould will be able to put the skids under Lonnie after they crew on Sunday afternoon after they have exhausted themselves in the first game of a double bill by playing the Son Louis Mexican Giants. Pirrone will use all of the strategy at his command to beat the Giants in this series. GOODWIN HAS STRATEGY TOO Manager Goodwin of the Royal Giants will be using strategy as well as Pironee to win the coming series. As there is no extra prize in League standing for the All-Stars to beat the Giants there is likewise an extra prize in the Giants taking both of the series from the All-Stars. Goodwin resizes that any way the Kelly Kars are now playing that they are likely to take the measurements of the Shell Oilers on Sunday and with the Karmen beating the Oilers and the Giants beating the All-Stars, will put the Royal Giants right jam up to first position. The results of this situation should mean that the fans at White Sox Park should be treated to one of the best series of the year. Come out and lets see what happens. THE BLACK SPORT WORLD BOB ROBINSON AT OREGON Not much has been said in the press this fall about the colored boys who are playing football on the college teams. But we just couldn't let the season slip by and not say a word. TWO OUTSTANDING To date we have been able to locate only two outstanding black boys in the gridiron game and they are Dave Meyers of New York U. and Bob Robinson. These two boys have played jam up football all season and have been a real credit to their teams. And you know they must be good when they make the regular variety, in face of all the white competition, because a boy with a dark skin has to wear three times as good as the next kid. ROBINSON PLAYS BANG UP RALL Little Bob Robinson up at the University of Oregon has played top notch football all season and has been a real asset to his team. K is a fighter and will go the last ditch. The boy can run, he can pass and he can kick, inflict he has every department of the game right at his finger tips. In the St. Mary's game a couple of weeks back the colored flash threw the pass that netted the northern their only score against the Saints. Not only in the Saint Mary's game was the colored flash a star, but in all the rest of the games the kid was in there fighting for all he was worth. Bishop will portray the attorney while Billy Andrews will be cast as the accused boy. Other members of the company will have strong supporting roles. Details of the giving away of a beautiful five piece bird's eye maple bed room suite at the Lincoln Theatre on December 28th by the Zerg Furniture Company will be made public during next week. This suite, a product of the Manistee Manufacturing Co., will be an absolutely free gift. MOSBY SPRINGS NEW IDEA WITH A JAZZ RHODEO IN NEW REVUE FEATURES IVY ANDERSON AND ANDERSON BROTHERS NEW FACES IN SHOW; MILDRED Mildred Washington and Curtis Mosby pulled a brand new one, when a Western idea in a floor revue was picked as the current show. The revue put on this week and for the next two weeks is one of the best the writer has ever seen. The costumes are beautiful in their uniqueness. The idea for this revue is entirely Western and the wide open spaces are given a break. FAST MOVING CHORUS The girls'in the chorus are beautifully gowned and the revue is moving smoother than we have ever seen it move before. Several of the Apex favorites are starred in this Revue. And as ever, Mosby is always on the lookout for new material that will improve his show has secured several new faces to put new pep and sap ni his show. The new faces noted on the floor are those of L. Simmions, a jazz singer deluxe; Radeliff and Taylor, two hoofers that really hoof and know nothing but hoofing, so you know they really go. MAKES HIT Miss Simmons is new with this show and already has found her place in the hearts of Curtis Mosby's guests. The little red headed girl has plenty of it and knows how to put it across and no less. Two of her best liked numbers are, "Baby Look What You Have Done to Me," and "I Ain't Misbehaving." Man how she did sing these two numbers. She sells them so to speak. BLACK BOTTOM The show wouldn't be complete without Kaki. She was there in all her big town stuff strutting her biz as usual only more so than ever. DRINARD TRIO AGAIN The famous Drinard Trio, the highest paid vaudiele dancers on the West Coast were at their best in a tap speciality. This little team of two girls and a young man know their taps and they really tap. They came with music and dancing. They knew of their numbers are original and Mosby's guests go wild over them. THE ONE IVY The one and only Ivy was there with, "At the End of the Road" and you know what a song that is when it is done like Ivy does it. But the real hit of the show was the two cooers, Racelif and Taylor and boy could go? Now ask me another. Those boys have everything and a little to spare. PROFESSIONAL NITE WAS A SUCCESS AS USUAL Good old Stompy was there with his famous version of Al Jolson's famous Sonny Boy. Only this time the Sonny Boy didn't belong to Stompy and he was all up in arms about it. He just couldn't get over it. This Sonny Boy was too much for Stompy. Stompy had black eyes his Sonny's mother had brown eyes and the boy had blue eyes now call him Stompy's Sonny Boy and prepare to die. Miss Jackie Freeman took the house with her Hulu dance. Man if you missed Miss Freeman's Hulu you have missed everything. Carolyn Snowden capped the show with two numbers that were all there. YOUNG JACK THOMPSON TO FACE BILLY WELLS! Chicago, Dec. 3 - Young Jack Thompson of San Francisco, Negro challenger for the world's wetter-weight championship, was matched today for a ten-round engagement with Billy Wells, elusive English 147-pounder, in Minneapolis, December 10. A real Virginia Baked Ham Dinner will be served at St. Phillip's Bazaar Monday, December 9th, all afternoon and evening at Tivoli Ballroom, 1106 East Vernon avenue. Dance every night. home from a post season, because it is to be played down behind the sun in Florida, where they haven't quite seen the light yet and as far as that goes, it will be a long time before they do, but that isn't the question. Why should the kid be slighted now that the season is over and he has given everything he had to the team. His University stands to get as much criticism as the southerners, they know the conditions in the south and still they schedule games down there, Why? DAVE MEYERS Now take the case of Dave Meyers the black flash of New York-U. From what we hear, Meyers was a bangup footballer himself and was on the first string variety of the U at New York and he played regular until time rolled around for the game with Georgia another one of these States down behind the sun and they are still waiting for the sunrise. Of course the Sun boys said No with capital letters with the New Yorkers wanted to play Meyers. PAPERS FULL The daily all over the country were full of the story and the colored weeklies made it front page copy for weeks but it availed them nothing. Meyers was not allowed to play. Now my question is this, why should the college make dates for games that every member of the team cannot play in? Why I ask you. Why? MISS ETHIOPIA'S GENEROSITY PACKS HOUSE By JOHN A. GRAY Those who were fortunate enough to get in Phillip's Temple at the recent performance of Miss Ethiopia's Generosity will ever remember one of the most out standing events in the musical history of Los Angeles. It has been many years since such a large aggregation of talent par excellence has been, heard on one program in this city. The result was that the church was packed to the doors and mannequins were eager to stand the whole evening. The first part of the program was in the form of the usual concert but the interest was kept at fever heat by the illusion that each number was being broadcast. Dr. Hudson in his own clever way presented the principles of Hearts in Dixie to Radioland. After which, he turned the microphone over to the announcer of the evening. Hon Fredrick Roberts who kept every one under the spell of really being in radioland, by his clever witteiscins. The second part of the program was the sketch called Miss Ethiopia's Generosity and for cleverness and instructiveness was the piece de resistance of the evening. Clever dialogue, beautiful singing, colorful and picturesque costumes and beautiful women were responsible for the success of this number. We have not space to comment on each number, but we take the liberty to say that the program was made up of real artists.

MAX PELZ TO TACKLE GARRISON IN BOUT Max Pelz, the hard-punching German middleweight who has floored nearly every opponent he has faced, including Joe Peregrina and Jack Chavez, will tackle Sandy Garrison Casanova, Scotch-Mexican scraper, in one-half of the next Saturday nite's double main event at the Main-street Athletic Club. Canova has scored two knockouts in three weeks at "the house of action." In the other half of the double wind up, Leo Hernandez will battle Phil Blood. They are welterweights, in the land should see to it that their young people are encouraged to read this book. If the religion of Jesus cannot lead us out of our miserable prejudices, based solely on color and pride of race, its great Founder will have failed so far as American Christianity is concerned.

Come see it. 10612 Croesus Avenue, Watts. The Apex club victors in a skirmish with selfish greed, highbinders and parasites, experienced another effort to cripple its efficiency, when it is revealed by the grape vine route, that one of its proposed stars who had faithfully rehearsed several times and was to open on last Friday night, was premorally ordered not to do so, by her affinity who happened to be a member of the opposite race to the proposed star. If she did she was to lose his affections. This when relayed by the same grape vine route was significant and a situation which the management of the Apex is dead set against, and made it case of good riddance. Of course while this particular star was to open up the show and had made the necessary rehersals, it caused a deal of inconvenience, it nevertheless was a revelation and when it breaks in all of its fulness as to who's who, there will be a hot time in this old town. The gay Lothario of the Saxon race is well known, likewise his dusky affinity. People will talk and when they begin to talk right out this bird and his conduct will have to take wings and fly. "Nero still fiddles while Rome Burns." They who sow the wind will surely reap the whirlwing. REVIEW OF BURSTING BONDS By S. RALPH HORLOW Smith College Bursting Bonds is an autobiography. I would like to put in the hands of every boy and girl in our country. Mr. Pickens writes with simplicity and directness of his struggles as a boy against the worst handicaps any human being can face, race prejudice, illiteracy, poverty, and lack of opportunity. Over these seemingly insurmountable obstacles to freedom, this Negro boy climbs to heights of attainment that take him from a wretched share-farm cabin in Arkansas to Phi Beta kappa honors and prize orator at Yale. Reading a story puts backbone to a life story that enlarges the finer sympathies of the soul, increases hope in the goodness of men, and deepens the longing for that day when all unprivileged boys and girls, especially those denied common justice, may come to their own. Dealing, as Mr. Pickens is forced to in his life story, with the problem of race prejudice, he is remarkably free from bitterness. Every man and woman interested in bettering race relations, between white and colored races of our country, will find inspiration in these pages; every father and mother hoping for their children aspirations to high ideals and friendly attitudes, will find time well-spent reading this book in the family circle. My own children were thrilled by this story, while it proved a window through which they were enabled to see and understand the heart-throbs of thousand of boys and girls not of their own race, and their manly heirs with them of American citizenship in this great hour. There is no field in American life today, where religion has so utterly failed to create the spirit of brotherhood and understanding as in this realm of race-relations. Every church 1818 So.

ONE HUNDRED WHITES REQUEST PROSECUTION OF BURGUNDY Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 25—By A.N.P.—Through its director, Dr. Will W. Alexander, the Commission on Interracial co-operation, with a membership of a hundred Southern men and women, yesterday addressed to Governor Doyle E. Carleton the following telegram relative to the recent lynching at Quincy, Florida: "Governor Doyle E. Carleton, Tallahassee, Fla.; Distressed to note your progressive administration marred by another lynching, the third in Florida this year, in a total of five for the whole country. This act of aparchy a serious blow at Florida's good name and a reflection upon the whole South. The honor of the state demands prompt apprehension and conviction of the perpetrators. However, heinous the victim's crime, lynching can have no defense under a government of law. Its continuance stigmatizes our civilization and discredits our religious professions around the world." In giving the telegram to the press This latest outbreak of mob violence in Florida is very discouraging Friday, December 6, 1928 SOCIAL Mr. and Mrs. William Butler entertained friends Sunday with a splendid dinner. Among those present were Mrs. W. D. Carter, Mrs. J. L. Perry, and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Edwards. The "We Fu" will give a formal dance at Dayton Hall, Thursday evening. The Chicago Club will hold its annual banquet at the Dunbar Hotel Sunday evening. Mrs. Eva Burton is President of the Club. SCHOOL Friday morning a group of student members of the Cosmopolitan Club of Pasadena Junior College hiked to Swizer Canyon. An enjoyable time was spent frolicing on the trails that lead to Oak Wilde. After lunch was eaten the mixed group engaged in a premediated discussion on race problems. Several Filipinos aired their reactions to the discriminations shown them in California. Mr. Karum Singh of India gave some interesting ideas on how to cope with race prejudice. A young white woman from Alabama discussed on the injustices shown Negroes especially in the south. The disease, race prejudice, was diagnosed; symptoms discovered, and remedies suggested. The meeting was presided over by a Negro member of the Club. Mr. Clarence Mills has just completed his new real estate office at his home, 485 S. Oak Knoll Ave. Mills is adequately equipped to handle his regular customers, and he invites the acquaintance of new ones. For several years the South has been struggling to shake off the lynching habit, and with rather notable success, Ten states had lynching in 1926, seven in 1927, and five in 1928. So far this year there have been lynchings in only three states, Mississippi, and Tennessee, and Florida has furnished three of the five victims. "A number of states have enacted special anti-lynching laws with good effect. Among these are laws creating a state constabulary under control of the governor, giving the governor power to suspend or dismiss officers who fail to protect their prisoners, and empowering the state to take direct jurisdiction if necessary in the apprehension and prosecution of lynchers, probably even more effective, however, has been the growth of anti-lynching sentiment across the South. When the palpits, newspapers, women's organizations, and business leaders of Florida die down and lynch in state that they will succeed. Until they do, this crime will go on, to the continued discredit of Florica, the South, and America; for it is a fact that lynchings occur nowhere in the world, not even in the lands to which we send missionaries."

The spirit of Christmas lives in the belief that Santa Clause is not dead but lives and is a visible being. Thousands of children saw and having seen they believed. Let us hope Christmas morn may strengthen their belief. --- Have you been down town to see the Christmas decorations? If not don't miss it. Go at night. 'Tis wonderful. The only ones who have knocked the whole thing is our local florists and we can't blame them when the florists of Oregon got the contract. --- Well, the Apex Nite club weathered the storm and is again motoring down the highway after the powers that be did all in their power to isolate and wreck its motor. But say we, the figures produced there made llars out or some. We are not boosting Apex stock but we do say when in any line of endeavor you have the record for maintaining the best whatever it is why don't try to murder it but murder those that are gunning wild and making no effort to stay within the law. According to order and department, the Apex should be almost if not the last one to have to close its door. If it doesn't hurry and rain pretty soon, why we'll have to vote the country wet, thereby doing away with prohibition. The only thing about that vote is that the bootleggers would line up with the minority in defeating the measure. * * * We motored into our old medical advisor and friend, Dr. Merriman, of Portland, last week and it certainly was a treat to meet him and see him looking twenty years younger and as usual, full of business. We are in hopes that he will open up his medical kit here as Los Angeles is in need of men of his type. Having once been a citizen of Portland, we made lots of friends up there and when a Portland citizen decides to call you a friend, he means it and he never forgets. Just at present it looks as the por some reason or other, Los Angeles is attracting folks from Portland. We took inventory last week and enumerated some twenty folks who have dropped in and became permanent residents. BOOKER WASHINGTON'S GRANDSON WORKING WAY BROUGH COLLEGE Washington, D. C., Dec. S. By A. N. P. William Sidney Pittman, Jr., son of Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Pittman of Dallas, Texas, and grandson of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute, is among the many young men working their way through Howard University, according to an announcement from the University last week. Young Pittman is a senior in the College of Liberal Arts and for three years has paid all of his expenses at the university through working in the summer and in the evenings. When asked why he had not told friends that he was grandson of the "sage of Tuskegee" he stated that he preferred to win his way upon his merits rather than to secure favors or recognition on account of his illustrious grandfather. ```markdown ``` If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened Louise Beverly Teacher Classical Dancing Phone ATlantic 6049 Studio 1449 E.

ABOUT THE CHRISTIAN'S UNION TEMPLE The Christian's Union Temple and Uplift Center, 4909 South Central Avenue, is one of the greatest churches in the community. It is doing the work that Christ set up the church in the world to do. Having as its leader a man of universal experience, a humanist, and a preacher who stands in a class with the best. We are proud to know that such a man as our own Prince Blaychettai has come to live among us. He teaches us how to live, and what to live for, ann that is the king of teaching the Negroes need. The Christian's Union Temple is a non denominational church, but it is not an independent one. It works in harmony with all others, and if you are thirsty for the gospel of love, life, light and truth, come to the Christain's Union Temple. Prince Blayechettai is credited of having more men in his church than women. He is a leader of men, and no preacher is more thought of in Los Angeles and in the United States than our distinguished pastor. The white people throughout the country give him the distinction of being one of the best that the Ethiopian race has ever produced. Our services begin at eleven o'clock every Sunday morning, and 8 o'clock at evening. Every Tuesday evening beginning at 8:30 Prince Blayechettia lectures on Africa. W. M. MORRISON, Chairman. THE FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH OF DARTE CORNER OF ELDER AND BRADBURY STS. REV. E. C. DYER It is with hearts filled with gratitude, and thankfulness to our Heavenly Father, that we the members of the First Baptist Church of Duarte, do welcome the coming of the Yule-tide this year. Never in the history of the little church have we been so blessed as we are at this time. The progress and the success of religious work, in this community has all come about in the last two years. And we would be less than human if we did not voice our sentiment and broadest our appreciation of what God has done for us. Two years ago our little church was like a disable ship on a strong sea, the winds of adversity and the waves of trouble bore down upon us and with the loss of our Pastor, Rev. E. Z. Martin, we felt that we were all but lost, but "Jesus became the Rock in the weary land and the shelter in the time of storm." The church sent out a call for Rev, Branon, but he chose another church by this time we were very much discouraged and members began to scatter, but it was "Just like Jesus," to have some of the officers of the church at the Tri-County Convention at Riverside, it was there, that, we heard a new minister preach a wonderful sermon, text, "Sir's we would see Jesus." It was then and there talt we the officers of the First Baptist Church invited the stranger to visit us. And in this way we became acquainted with teh man that God wanted for our leader. A "Moses" in our community to lead us out of the bondage of deception. This God sent man was no other than our highly esteemed pastor, Rev, E. C. Dyer, who must have came to us pity, knowing that we were deep in debt and having only a small membership. His first work directly after a successful revival, was to rally with the members and we raised the $350.00 the balance on the $500.00 laon from the Southern California Baptist Convention (white) held against the church. Feb. 1928. Rev. Dyer was called to St. Martinsville, La. to bury his aged father, returning he gave his entire life to the church. He preached the word of God and new members came into the church through baptism. He was an instrument in the Com- full will be served for a small sum of one dollar will a plate. There will be twelve tables representing the 12 months of the year. What month were you, born? Tickets are on sale at the church. On the 18th of December we invite you to our Kiddies Fashion Review' and on the fourth Sunday Afternoon, Dec. 22 we are having a great Thanksgiving Fellship meeting visit us on these above dates. Do not forget the Banquet. Everybody else is coming. munity, getting the folks to gether and breaking down selfishness, enviousness, and deminational clashes. Jam. 1929, again Rev. Dyer was called south, this time to the bed side of a dying mother, who lingered awhile. The night of Feb. 22, the First Baptist Church of Duarte was burned to the ground. In answer to a wire, our pastor said he would be on the scene as soon as possible, high waters, and adjustments of the estate made delays. He arrived at home in April, 1929, the officers had prepared no place for worship. The pastor then, secured the Public school building without cost. At a regular meeting of the church with the building committee. Rev. Dyer was given the power and authority to erect a church building. With less than $1300.00, he gave to Duarte a model church edifice, 4X30, stuckko building, worth at least $200.00 working himself and securing other workers who was willing to cut their wages for the sake of the cause. In this way he accomplished a great saving financially to the church, the discounts on work and material all points one way that true man at the helm was a man that knew his business. The $700.00 saved by the Pastor's management caused us to without debt, when the church was finished. The church is now complete with baptistry, elevated rostrum, fixtures, musical instruments and other furnishing all paid for. Our rally on the 4th Sunday in Nov. (our pastor's 2nd anniversary) wiped out the last cent of endebtness on church, grounds or its furnishing. Nothing is owed now but the $500, gift to the church in 1924 by the Southern California Baptist Convention, (white). The Pastor, Rev. E. C. Dyer with his officers and the entire membership has nothing on the calendar for 1930, but raise and return that gift and break the strings for ever. God has blessed us our church has been dedicated in the name of the Lord. Our pool has been crisened with baptism of six converts and other are still waiting. *This done in order that others may know of the faithful and unselfish service rendered by our beloved pastor, Rev. E. C. Dyer, through advertisements and many obstacles. WM. HUDSON, Fin. Secy* MINNIE J. DAVIS, Treas. LULA GEAR, Deaconess-Trussee Bro. NICKLES, Deacon* SUSSIE B. WEBB, Church clerk CHRISTMAS APPEAL By MRS MARY E. BAKER 1749 W. 35th Place Dear friends—Especially christians while giving cheer to the poor, the sick and other unfortunates, how many have thought, to go to the jails and scatter a little sunshine? The Master said when I were sick and in prison—Ye ministered not unto me. "So much as ye did it not unto the least of mine ye did it not unto me." For nearly six years I have been conducting devotional services in Lincoln Heights jail, known as the Stockade. Every year our little group cheer to some-mothers prodigal sons in the said jail. Sunday before Xmas by carrying such as cake and fruit last year I appealed to a few friends for aid, some gave a little money which I purchased fruit, and a few ladies gave cakes. By so doing we gave more than 350 packages of such. And many hearts were made glad. This year I feel impressed to do more as we find so many men in jail that were out of work are put in jail as vagrants, some are strangers who come here trying to find work, and the jail is the result. Seeing conditions as they are I feel that we can give a real turkey dinner, on Dec. 22nd which is the 4th Sunday we have always gone the Sunday previous to Xmas to share what we have. Some I've asked to contribute to this cause, their reply is don't the city and county give them a Xmas dinner? That may be true, as I am told that different organizations and merchants send something to the jails for a Xmas dinner But listen friends what becomes of the prisoners who are released a few days, or even Xmas Eve, no job, not a nickle to buy a cup of coffee or a sandwich and some are strangers in our fair Christian City? Are we as Christians or even a citizen to sit idly and wait with our deplorable excuse, let the city and county take care of the prisoners, yet we read with joy what Mrs. McPherson, the Salvation Army and few others do. As we as a race can do likewise. As I have said strangers here in the city looking for work and are picked up and given jail sentences from 30 days some as high as 6 months. Of course you on the out side don't know what we go in and out every Sunday morning, and learn of some appealing conditions very often we find men sick, no money, and no friends in L. A. and just to stop and speak a worm of comfort, and very often pray with the individual, it seems to bring a new reality to him. As we are not only concerned about the material, but also the spiritual need. And are endeavoring to persuade men to see the Christ that saves men from their sins and lifts as being from the lowest gitter and sits him on a higher plain. Of course we know there are many guilty ones in jail, but we can't draw men to Christ by sensuring and condemning them, but I found by contact and giving the word of truth, men are made to see their own mistakes, because convicted and see there is reality in serving a true God and turning from the crooked to the right way. There are so many men who never attend church before put in prison, but we enjoy having come to their senses and finally gather in our services on Sunday morning and listen attentatively, and many accept with sincere repentance, confessing Christ as their personal Saviour; and after their release find their way to the house of God, and joins and is baptized. Starts life anew. I think when men are bold enough to come out from among 200, or more inmates declare Christ as their own surely it is worth while; for it takes more than ordinary courage for a man to stand up knowing that other prisoners will give and yet will confess Christ. So with these few which I've mentioned and many others which we come in contact with I believe it is a worth while to go to the jails and scatter a little kindness and come in personal contact with the prisoners. Just as Jesus did the woman of Samaria. He did not condemn her but he gave her the word of truth and she saw her sinful self and acknowledged her sins and He for-gave-her So now let us get back to the pre Xmas dinner for the prisoners. I am appealing to the friends of the unfortunate, to please come to our rescue and lets make this a real Xmas, by giving them a real turkey dinner with all the fixins with it, anyone can give whatever they feel like giving if there are any stores or bakeries who want to contribute, we will gladly appreciate it. If there is a lady who will bake a cake or pie, we will be thankful. We have an unusual privilege this year we have the use of the kitchen and dining room in the jail something no one else has ever had. I am persuaded to say it must the will of the Lord, for this dinner to go through. Let don't shrik just watch the Salvation Army how they expose themselves in the cold so that they might reap something to sow to the unfortunate ones. I can't sit on the streets as they do and solicit, but I am appealing to the friends of this paper, and I hope and trust that many will come to our rescue in showing a little kindness as Jesus did when HE fed the 5,000. He knew they were not all sincere followers. He knew some were His enemies, but He fed them all. "It is more better to give than receive."

SOUTH LOS ANGELES NEWS---CLUB DOINCS CHURCH AFFAIRS SOCIAL ACTIVITIES Friday, December 6, 1929 Grant Chapel A. M. E. Church—Rev. T. F. Jones, Pastor Splendid congregations attended all services last Sunday. After a splendid session of the Sunday school, the Pastor preached at the 11 o'clock service, using as a subject, "God's Hobiness." The Pastor brought us a great message. He also preached at the evening service, subject, "The Divine Commission." In the afternoon at 3 o'clock, the Pastor and wife and some of the members of the church attended the quarterly meeting at Bethel A. M. E. church on the west side. The young people had a very interesting meeting at the Junior Christian Endeavor hour. A fine program was rendered. The Junior Missionary Society will give a social affair at the church on the night of the 17th. Buy your ticket and encourage the young people. The choir assisted by other talent of the city will give a benefit musicale on the 20th.

A birthday dinner was given in honor of Miss Irina Ransey at the home of Rev. and Mrs. N. Ferguson. Sunday afternoon at the home of the host and hostess, on East 115th-street. Miss Ransey received many beautiful presents. News Notes The community was shocked at the tragedy enacted on East 103rd street east Saturday evening, when a shoe shop operator killed himself and a woman who had been a former employee at the shop. The mystery surrounding the shooting perhaps will never be known. The Young Peoples' Dramatic club is preparing to present a drama at Gont Chanel church some time after the holidays. Mrs. Nellie Hutt on Juniper street continues on the sick list but is somewhat improved. WE ARE CIVILIZED Of course, we are civilized and so is the inhabitant of Terra del Fuego. There are no human beings now living without culture. Do we moderns have a better civilization than our ancestors or than present day primitive people? Although this question may be answered in the affirmative, we must not forget that there are always relies of primitive culture clinging to us, such as belief in luck, grass supernaturalism, and traditionalism of the professions. Modern man is mentally of a piece with his ancestors and present day primitive people. Dr. Robert H. Lowie explains this in his diverting history of civilization called "Are We Civilized?" In his chapter on Art the author points out "Stark-maked savages tattoo or scar their bodies, pierce their lips and ears to stick a plug into them, or weigh down their necks, arms, and ankles with brass rings. Why? In order to look handsomer." Does not our own modern maiden also spend hours going through the tortures of a permanent wave and other devices for the purpose of beautifying herself? Does this prove that we are very far advanced from the primitive state? The assumption that the modern man is civilized is not easy to maintain after reading this remarkable book; and it becomes equally difficult to say that the savage and benighted beathen did not live wisely, virtuous-called civilization. We learn the many curious facts of man's contradictory experience in different ages and separate worlds which help us to form an entirely new idea of the relation of culture to human life. This excellent book may be borrowed from the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch Library, 2330 Naomi avenue, and the Vernon Branch Library, 4504 South Central avenue.

Perhaps no greater state paper was ever received by that body since Lincoln. ! He spoke truly for America and American people; he singled out no race nor creed and therefore all are included in his scope for Peace, Prosperity and Union. : His strong and unequivocal stand for observance of all laws is in keeping with the dignity of his high office and while the President stressed the 18th Amendment we can but take it that he means the observance of all. ‘We are equally as much interested in the ‘enforcement of all the others as we are the Eighteenth. The same spoken words of the President in reference to law abiding citizens should apply with equal force to all laws and if the appeal of the president is considered in all of its fullness, such meaning must be.apparent to all who read and justice will be rendered unto all alike. Certainly no greater sentiment was ever uttered by man than the concluding paragraph of the President’s message which we hereby quote: ; “The test of the rightfulness of our decisions must be whether we have sustained and advanced the ideals of the American people; self-government in its foundations of local goverriment; justice whether to the individual or to the group; ordered liberty; free- dom from domination; open opportunity and equality of opportunity; the initiative and individuality of our people; prosperity and the lessening of poverty; free- dom of public opinion; education; advancement. of knowledge; the growth of religious spirit: the toler- ance of all faiths; the foundations of the home and the advancement of peace.” HERBERT HOOVER. The White House, Dec. 3. 1929. AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT With the weather more favorable for business, merchants are apt to complain very soon of being too busy for comfort. Into the days to Christmas will be crowded not only the usual holiday business but clso a great deal of the purchasing which has been put off because of unseasonably warm weather gen- erally. November almost set a new record for excess of tem perature. In early reports of holiday trade, results are deemed quite satisfactory. There has been no overstocking, but it is entire ly possible that certain stocks of goods will ruh short as the selling progresses because backward trade earlier in the season caused many retailers to hold down their orders. At the same time manufacturers were hesitant to produce for stock pur- poses. Statistics coming through on trade and industry picture a rather irregular, but generally satisfactory, situation. Noyem- ber mail order business reflected improvement in the farming regions, the business being ahead of a year ago. With some few exceptions department stores throughout the country re- port increased business. So far as the general indicators of business are concerned, they also present a “spotty” appear- ance. Stock transactions are large and bank clearings are breaking records, but freight clearings are below those of a year ago in many sections, Allin all, the situation is serious only for those who fail to do their Christmas shopping early. Christmas eve may find the stor shelves and cases as bare as when the happiness of oth- ers hangs on a gift. Ame END Subsidence of the continents beneath the seas and the drowning of the races is the latest scientific guess as to the end of the world—some 25,000,000 years hence. For this last, much thanks. There still remains to man plenty of time in which to en- joy himself and to get something out of life. In the meantime, he will doubtless be treated to many variations of theory as io the end—all. Only a few weeks ago scientists solemnly gave warning of an ending by drought, with seas receding and land becoming too arid and torrid for existence. Between being dried out and being drowned there may not be much choice, but there is wide range of difference. In between there is room for innumerable variations, and beyond there is rodm for even wilder fancies and guesses. It seems that scientific alarmists cannot long remain silent on this sub- ject. Very often prophets rise to forecast the end. Many have been so rash as to cast their disaster for an early date, and accordingly have been discredited by failure. Later prophéts have generaly adopted the safer rule of fixing the end—all at some remote time. Now that this warn- ing has been issued, the world public may get set for the next guess, which will not be long in coming if scientific alarmists keep up their prophetic gait. MAN: BUILDER Man is the builder of his own fortune. The marks he sets is the plan by which he will work and the blocks with which he will build are the hours of today, An hour improved today is the block laid trim and true that may be forgotten but that will stand the ravages of the storm and leave the tomorrow for other blocks. The time allotted to man in which to complete his building is short; old age is the taskmaster swooping! down upon the worker toiling with mislaid blocks. Men: who misuse their hours of youth will spend old age tearing down and rebuild- ing in feverish but futile haste to spread a protecting roof over their declining years. Not so with the man who makeg every hour count in his building plan. His walls shall defy the chill blasts of old age. For the twenty-second conseéutive year Christmas seals are now being offered for sale to the public as a means of rais- ing the needed funds for the prosecution of the nation-wide campaign against tuberculosis. That the money thus given is not thrown away is convincingly shown by the fact that since the inauguration of the movement under the National Tuber- culosis Association the death rate from this disease has decreas- ed more than fifty per cent.

J. WHEATON . ] a There comes from the State of Arkansas a story so heinous in its conception and so atrocious in commitment as to stagger belief in the progress of Christian civilization. A young man, on his way to be married, was waylaid by a quintet of youths, |turtured and then burned to death. His prospective bride, 16 |vears of age, Was cruelly violated. It is alleged that two of | the number were young men connected with well-known fami- |lies of prominence and that all were of American birth. When |thoxe young men neglected to disguise their personnels by blacking their faces it was one of the provisions of a wise Provi- | dence. Otherwise there would have been a wholesale massa- cre of the Negro population of the State. The falacy of Ne- | gro brutality is rapidly being-proven. It occurs very frequent- ily that crimes laid at the door of the Negro have been uncover- |ed and shown to have been committed by persons disguised as ‘such. It will be well worth the watching to see just what form of justice Arkansas w,J! take toward those miscreants. We |of justice Arkansas will take toward those miscreants. We have a faint remembrance of the form of “justice” meted out to people of a different color from the men accused of this crime _and whose only accusation was, the attempt to collect their personal wage. One thing was the journalistic meagerness. It ‘Was not “front paged.” © | | One of the burning questions of the hour is, What is the Federal Government taking to stamp out the illiteracy so prev.- lent. A glimpse at the army records show that in the draft for, ‘the World War £5 per cent of the men between the age of 21 and 31 were so ignorant as to be unfit for military service. A’ survey of the court records and reports of crime commissions ‘show that three out of every four criminals are recruited from | ‘the ranks of the illiterate. The Rosenwald gift; of' $100,000 is being used by the committee appointed by the Secretary of the ‘Interior to investigate, why these hordes of illiterates in the: world's wealthiest nation which abounds with every advan-_ tage for the obtaining of, at least, a rudimentary schooling. With all of the disadvantages that have surrounded him the educational showing of the Negro was more pronounced than. ‘that of the more fortunately situated, Some proponents of edu- cational measures argue for the creation of a government head with a seat in the cabinet and to be known as the Secretary 07) Education. Unless such a department of the gevernment:would insure an equal educational opportunity in all of the states it is hard to believe that it would be more potent than the exist- ing bureau now acting from the department of the interior. It certainly is a travesty on or boasted superiority in the onward march of nations to be told that 6 out of every 100 adults can-’ ‘not read or write in any language. Such ignorance is a menace to gur form of government and if continued will undermine its stability. Education is the firm foundation--of our national welfare, © 8 & ee |e George Clemenceau, “Tiger of France,” has fallen, The | Grim Reaper, Death, has proved conqueror over one of the ‘most colorful characters of the century. His patriotism was a. ‘religion. His faith in the unconquerorable spirit of France was ‘never greater than in her darkest hours. The indomitable will that knew not defeat succumbed at last to the inevitable, and while cannon boomed a last farewell he was laid to rest near the grave of his father at Mouchamps. The obsequies were | simple; such as befitted entombment of a great man. No cere, mony; no eulogies: His active life in the interest of his coun- try was too well known for any attempt to eulogize it. Clem- enceau was called “The Father of Victory” because of his sup- er-Patriotism which never flagged and spurred the army on to super-human efforts to. stem the tide of the German invasion during the late World War. He was relentless in the hour of | victory and exacted terms from the conquered enemy that ap- peared extremely heartless. But he remembered the time when Germany was the victor and the exactions made for i) country and, he no doubt, felt the spirit of yengefulness. France mourns him and the world will not soon forget him. | pareAttabs convicted of murder during the Jewish massacre in Palestine, have been condemned to die, A number of the Jews asking that the sentence be not carried out. For, says the American Hebrew, (New York) “Jews do not seek vengeance despite the opinion commonly held in some quarters that the | God of the Jew is a God of vengeance. The Lord, the God, as it is written, is merciful and gracious, long suffering and abund- ant in goodness, forgiving iniquity and transgression in sin.” It is argued by those who favor leniency that a more friendly attitude will be created between the Jew and Moslém in Pales- tine and a greater amity between the two religions established if mercy be shown to the convicted Arabs. It cannot be dented| that should the sentence be carried out that the spirit of ven- geance will not! be soothed and the smouldering fires of racial and religious hates be fanned into flame with the slightest provocation. Should the Jewish plea for mercy be heeded ic may convert implacable foes into lasting friends which will greatly aid in the firm establishment of a nation where Jew| and Moslem will dwell together in amity, having respect for’ the religious belief of each. Although the Jew and Arab are distinct in racial characteristics and their civilizations do not even “parallel’ there is no reason why they should not together build up in Palestine a strong and virile nation, If Jew and | Arab can work, strive, and blend their efforts in harmonious effort for the future of Palestine there is less reason to doubt that the civilization of the ,American Negro: and the white, which is one, will not bend in making this the greatest of nations. ee ee = |” It is hoped that the senegambidn in the wood pile will be. uncovered when the fight over the appointment of the collector “tb co be eA se Yee bt | of internal revenue is.again brought up with the convening of |Congress. The confirmation of Oftedal was postponed ‘when Senator Hiram Johnson made objection before the Finance Committee of the Senate. Senator Shortridge appeared before the committee in behalf of Oftedal and it was then seen that he (Oftedal) was bging sponsored by the Anti-Saloon League, when letters extolling him were read from Doctor Briggs and Mrs, Wilderbrandt, former federal prosecutor of prohibition cases in the department of justice. It appears that Oftedal’s candidacy is sponsored by Raymond*Benjamin, and Senator Johnson has’ objection to the Federal patronage of California being dispensed by him. ‘Placing two and two together it ap- pears that Senator Shortridge has allied himself with Doctor Briggs, the Anti-Saloon League, and the “Dry's.”_ The Senator comes up for re-election, 1930, and it is possible that he is: flirt- ing with that element for their support of his candidacy. Sen- ator Johnson's insistent fight against the confirmation of Ofte- dal is his objection to the Federal patronage being turned ever to Ray Benjamin, It will not be long until it is definitely known where the Administration stands on the question of the: dis- pensing of Federal Patronage in the State and that decision may have a lot to do with the voting next fall. Politics in Cali- fornia, at this stage, is well worth the watching.

We heard the boast of a man that he had the first dollar | in the bank that he ever earned. Another says, “I have tried to | make the first dollar that | ever earned work’ for me.” Some | public officials boas: of “how much money was in the public | treasury under their administrations.” Hoarded money is no | money at all. What is the use of dollars tied up in such way | that it cannot be used and circulated for purchasing purposes? | Three years ago the state buildings in California's capital were | unfinished, The surrounding plats laid for lawns were mud | bogs. In the meantime governinental departments were being | housed in leased buildings. Yet, it was claimed that the “treas- , ury was bursting with wealth of money.” Taxes were not de- creased and those dollars in the treasury of the state were of no value to the Commonwealth. Came a change of administra- tions: today those unsightly, unfinished, state buildings house the departments and bureaus of the State government. The surroundings are the show places of the Capital city, and com- mented upon for their beauty. Highways have been built and | improved. Those “hoarded dollars” have been set to work, | and employment given to thousands of workers who in turn have been able to maké purchases that have given a stimulous to business throughout the state. It is the prosneirty of che many, not of the few, which makes a contented people, end they don’t mind the taxes so much if they have the wherewith to pay. Meney wisely spent in the best economy. eer oar oe Senator Moses says that his “Wild Jackass” application to the insurgent group of senators was a quotation from the Bible.

Press) An intelligent colored person oi Montgomery, Ala. has just sent me a clipping from the Montgomery. “Ad- vertiser,” white daily paper, which 3s hoosting Roscoe Simmons for Negro Congressman instead of DePriest. The southern white paper quotes from a speech made by Simmons in Mont- gomery at “Old Ship” Negro Baptist Church, in which Simmons promises to try to please both “the North and the South.” if only he can get Chicago Negroes to send him to Congress. in- Stead of DePriest. The “Advertiser”, with evient approval, quotes Sim: mons as indulging in something which we call pure nonsense; that if he is elected’ to Congress, he will want sauthern white people to approve of him and to say: “Hear him. ‘This is the son of the Great Conflict and now he rises to serve all alike, the north of Grant and the South of Lee".

Devil, we want to ask: How can ar American Negro, even with a pre- tense of honesty, serve both the ideals which Grant fought for and also those which Robert E. Lee contended for: We have heard too much of that Sor of rot all our days and we are frank- ly and fully suspicious of any Negrc who starts out that way. Ti the souti- ern whites were wise, they” would never trust a Negro who would make such a pretense. If Simmons mean: to try to “straddle the fence” between the Negro's interest and the South's notions about Negroes, Simmons. will be no leader for Negroes. Of course southern white people, and the Mont. gomery “Advertiser” in par ticular would vather see a negro'in Congress who has the ability’ to tlk a lot and say nothing. They-would rather have seme fellow who would play for their favor rather than for the interests and wishes of his black and white constituency. li Simmons wants to be Congress- man from Chicago, our advice is, that he try to satisfy the Negroes of Am- erica, especially those of the north, and more particularly those in the First Congressional District of Illinois It was those Chicago Negroes whe sent DePriest to Congress, and those Negroes will determine DePriest's Successor. The editors of the Ala- bama and Georgia daily . newspapers could nat send Simmons tor Congress if they would, and would not if they could. They do not want either Sim- mons or DePriest or any other Ne- gro, but of course, there are some Ne- groes whom they would rather have than some others, since they must see a Negro in Congress. But the very fact that we all know that these southern “white gent'men" do not want any Négro in Congress from anywhere makes us suspicious of any Negro whom they may endorse, even if wé had no other reason in the world to be doubtful of that Negro. Anybody with a bit of brains can see that: who would want those who are opposed to all Negro representation, to have any influence on choosing Ne- gro representatives when they ‘find out. that they are compelled 1¢ have one? Roscoe Simmons: is simply hunt. ing in the wrong woods, when he is seeking an office from the hands of Chicago Negroes by running down South and trying to make good first with “our white folks.” The Mont- gomery “Advertiser” has always stood for ‘denying the Negro even the right to vote, let alone the right to go: to Congress. Every boost Simmons can get from a source like that, ought to be a kick for him when the campaigt gets going in Chicago nest year. If hhe wants to go to Congress from Chic- ago, he had better run on back there and tell Chicago about it; and he need not tell.them that he is going to be 3 “good darkey” and compromise | with “Marse Henry,” he will need: to. pro- mise to be even more uncompromising for the Negro’s rights than is the man ‘whom he seeks to displace.

JOHNNY ADAMS, OLD FAVORITE WANTS TO FIGHT BABY SAL SORIA; WANTS $500 SIDE BET RACE MOVIE EXTRA SLUMP. BROKEN BY INDEPENDENT 1800 PAY CHECKS ISSUED RACE SCREEN PLAYERS OVER A PERIOD OF THREE WEEKS. (By Lawrence Francis LaMar) Colored screen players continue to get the breaks as producers continue to | make tropical films. Although there has been a general slump in movie production this year, and, the extras have fared poorly as a result: yet, the colored extra has no reason whatsoever to sing “em. They ,have | had more than their prorata of work. | Large movie sets. calling for hundreds of people have been the main cause. | Most of them have been African or! native sets, Others were jazz revue sets, culling for an orchestra ang usuial- ly scores of dancers, However, the Airican sets predominated. Now, while the major studios as far as Negro players are concerned, are doing nothing; the smaller indepen- cat’ studios, are stepping in and shat-| terimg all: records for race employ-| ‘neti: mee Both cf the boys are big shots: in théir home town, Johnny Adams ts Knawn from one coast to the other for his fighting ability. He can go a lit- tle yet althougiy he is getting pretty old in the game. A: one time the “Mountain Lisi” was known from one seaboard tothe other as the fightenest piece of machinery ever turned out on the West Coast. John- ny lias fought vie best in the game. He has not only fought some of the best men in the rackétt, Lut he has also beuten more than his share of them, Going down the list of nen that Adams has fouskt and hung the dead sign on are Tommy O'Brien, Ace Hiudkins, the same Hndkins that just lost. to Mickey Walker. Adams heat him, And many others too numerous ae te NOT SQ GOOD NOW As stated cbove, Adams at one time Was rated with the best of them and hag secn some very palpy days, but the old wolf is at the dood now so to speak and the dimes don’t come so casy now. Iu the good ok days Johnny pulled down dough that was real dough, not this little fly-by-night dough but’ dough that knew it was dough. Johnny said he made it esy and by gosh it went easier than that. Easy come, easy go. That's what the fighting Mountain. Lion said aud that is just’ what be did. CARS AND MORE CARS Jobnny'’s pet hobby was tuying autos and could that baby buy them? Ask me agother. He could do that thing and no legs. Hudsons, Cade, Oakiands, and more cars. The Cads had the edge and they cost more money, so you know the boy made money in his day. Two studios. bold the spotlight o: attention. in this matter.) Color-Art studios, where “Mamba” Wwas, filmed: and Columbia stucio, where "Revenge" or “Black Sheep” is being filmed. At Color-Art, approximately 1200 | pay checks were issued, while thus far at Columbia, 600 have been) issued. Stars in the Making Outstanding colored _ players _ in “Mamba” will include Onest Conley, Mme, Sul-Te-Wan, and Ernest Wil- son. Others are, Tom Farrel, Harry Crawford, and Hazel Jones.’ Noble Johnson is to be numbered|among the principals, Floyd Shackeliord is casi- ly outstanding in the Columbia vehicle, “Revenge,” However. he | is closely pressed by Onest Conley, and Robt, Frazier for honors. Others seen at good intervals are Dave Horton, Jas. Robinson, Nathan Curry, Harold Far- ley and Katherine Garrott. This iast namee picture stars Jack Holt. It is directed’ by Archie Mayo. [The entire casting was handled by Spencer Wil- Tams, He also weilded ah assictant divectous anegaplinise:- Autos weren't the only things the old fighting Mountain Lion put the old iron men out on. He loved the bright and gay lights and the brighter they were the better he liked them. And believe me he 51 lenty on mak- ing ‘em shine ae a little more luster. In other words that boy could fo and go some, He was a goer of the first water in the ming and just as much of a goer outside of! the ring. What:ver he did -he did it with a vim But as all fight fans know, one of them must give in. You can't make the Lright lights shine end shine in the squared circle too, Well iu the long run the bright lights won out with Adams. He tried hard to keep te mbotd up bute just couldn't make the grade and he went down in his ring rating and tried and is still) trying to do what they all do, when they fall by the way-side in the ring—make a comeback, but it just can't be done to the hichest degree again. STILL CAN FIGHT Johnny can still go a little, he al- ways could fight, bye he isnit the top notehey he used @ be. Now he is creating a stir by wanting to take on Baby Sal Soria in a winner take all. SAL A PUNCHER i This Baly Sal Soria that Adams is hurling the challenge to is no champ himself. Sel fs pretty well known, and has a reputation for being able to do w little fighting and hit, O my thow that hoy can lay'a right hand on the old kisser. When Sal puts that old right on them they. are just right and, fur- ther more they siay that way. it is seldom, yea very sellom any of them get up When Sel lays it to (hom, LOOKED LIKE CHAMP At oné time and not so long avo Baby Sal Soria looked like a champ in the junior ligutweight division, but since then the bey’s stock has taken a sudden drop, in fact when it did start dropping it hit the bottom with almost as*hard a bang as Wall Street did w couple of weeks back. But when the boy was ‘on top he wag ber- ries. Sal too is making what he calls a cometack. He is younger than the Mountain’ Lion and has more of a chance to get ‘back on the top heap. The go0q looking Mexican boy jumped into the limelight, when he hung the old kyo on Darrio Barron, another Mex that was hitting the -high spots in Los Angeles at the biz house ‘on Grand Avenue. Sal hit Dartio With that terrible yicbt hand of bis and he put his countryman out ke 2 light. MADE SAL ‘That fight made the company of Leabo and Sal. The fans lked the way the kid shoved over is knock- ont punch and they went wild over bim and Sel was sittig on top of the erat. SHORT PUNCHER Sal has one of the prettiest short punches in the fight same today, wii a right paw and that left of his is no slouch, Anyway, Sal was made with that fixht and he was packing the Olympic often. He didn't win all of ais fights. Dat he was either knocked out or he knocked out pis men and he did i: in 8 way that was sensational, FIGHTS (CHAMPION Alter several bouts at the big hous: and winning them by knockouts, that were kayos in every sense of ti word they shoved the kid up against the world’s junfor lightweight cham: pion—Tpd Morgan. You all remember the outcome. Morgan outsmart:d Soria from here to Timbucto, made him fight just the kind of tattle he Wanted him to fight and gave him a boxing lesson to the uth degree. | Not only did Sal fail in wresting the crown from Tod's brow, but from then on every time he went up against | a firstrater he fizaled, by trying :o box instead of getting in there slug. ging for all he was worth, the one and_ only thing ae knows about the came. | ON BOTTOM NOW | The hard hitting kid tt the bottom just bout as hard as he hit th» top and now he {is down in the sticks again trying to regain tis fort, so that he can havedne more whirl at the big time. STANDS GOOD CHANCE The Mex stands a good chance wit Johnny Adams and if he hangs the old boy a knock out with that right hand he will be sittiog on top of th» vorld ugsin and I don't mean maybe. ‘There js a little difference in weizht tetween the men, but that can bs fixcd up and allaw them to go to it hammer and tongs for ten rounds or less. 1am telling you that would be on? fight that would be worth seeing. Picture it, Johnny. with that never div fighting spirit of his and Baby Sal with that death dealing blow in either bend and boty of them sluggcrs of the Sys! water. Boy what a fight, Match them Elkins, the fans will Aldek to that one. ROYAL GIANTS WIN FROM KELLY KARS The Reval Giants, with Bullet Ro- anpitching looked ‘plenty royal last Sunday afternoon, when they Leat the Keily Kars in a‘ fast game, that had thera standing on the edge of their seats. The Glants only had an edge of one hit, ‘The colored boys garned six hits and the Kellys brought in five bingles. The game was as close a ball same as yOu would want to see. AIR TIGHT BALL “Bullet” chunked aig tight ball in there all the time and kept ais hits well scattered. The old boy was fezl- ing his outs and no less Sunday and iltched the ball that gives him his nickuamne, “Bullet.” In fact all of the boys played the ball they are famous for back In tae Hast, KELLYS LOSE TWO ‘The Kar boys not only lost to the Royals, they came in on the short end with the San Luis team also. The Mexican boys from Sen Luis took the Kelly boys by a score of 11 to 1. San Luis pulled in 17 hits while the Kary were held down to 7 hits and then they didn't use them when the time came.

LES FIGHTS GOOD FIGHT Kennedy fought a very good fight and had the oid timer in tow all_the way. The youngster held back a little out of due respect for the rubber work- er’s right hand. Les had heard. so much about it he couldn't help, but give it a little leeway. Although the harbor bey had his eye on that right. Christner never came within an ace of slipping it over. « MAULING TYPE OF BOXER This writer failed to see why the sport writers in the east should go so wild over the rubber man irom Ohio. He didn't have a thing, but a big heart and plenty of taking powers. The old boy never stopped swinging even if he didn't do any gooc, or I should say harm, LES ALL THERE There wans't anything less about Les Tuesday night. he was all there and na less.

UPTON 80 847 Central Avenue NEW PULLMAN MAIDS QUARTERS. IN CHARGE OF PULLMAN PORTER INSTRUCTOR New quarters in Los Angeles, was established for the Pullman Maids operating into this district, in one of the apartments of Pullman Porter instructor, L. A. Coffin. The maids were formerly quartered at the home of John Peters, retired Pullman Porter of this district, Mr. Coffin was still in Chicago at the time we went to press, attending the P. P. B. A. convention as delegate from Los Angeles. The porters are all anxious for him to return as much interest is attached to the report that he is expected to bring here from the convention, meeting will be called by the chairman of Local No. 1 directly after the arrival of the delegate, in order that the members of this Local be informed of what took place at the convention. SANTA FE TRAIN KILLS SIX Six persons, three young men and three girls, all students or former collegians, were killed last week, when a fast south bound Santa Fe train, headed for San Diego, struck their auto at Myers crossing, between Whittier and Norwalk. Five of the young people were killed instantly, and one used while being taken to the Memoria Hospital in Whittier. The train carries three pullmans and two day coaches, and according to the line up, the pullman porters in charge at the time the accident occurred, were J. Wortham, and R. Bradford. TERRIFIC SNOW STORM AND COLD Weather Ties Up Railroad In East The first serious reminder that winter has appeared on the scene, was brought to us from reports of Pullman Porters who operate out of Chicago, not in fifty years has the country experienced such severe weather so early in the season, Pullman Porters say the cold snap should increase travel to Southern California, and all porters who were heated this way are hailing the cold weather as a life saver for their business. Every since Thanksgiving, travel has been unusually light on trains headed this way, it is thought that now since the winter has set in that travel will greatly increase. The Santa Fe Chief came in with a good load, and from all indications will continue to do so as long as the cold weather last. Steam heated flats are getting a big break in Chicago, and are renting at top notch prices. TWENTY-FIVE INJURED AND NINE KILLED IN VIRGINIA TRAIN WRECK Eight women) and one man were killed last Sunday, near Norfolk, Va., when a split rail threw five coaches of the week end Norfolk-New York excursion special off the track, causing two coaches to overturn. The special was pounding through the night at fifty miles an hour when the wreck happened. All told, there were five hundred people on the train evenly divided between Colored and White. When the crash occurred the train was lunged into darkness, and the fear of fire breaking out before the dead and dying could be extracted was great. Among the dead were Miss M. E. Diggs, and four other unidentified Colored women. SANTA FE TO BUILD $1,000,000 DEPOT The latest reports in railroad circles is to the effect, that The Santa Fe will in the near future begin construction on a new $1,000,000 depot on the present sight of the old one. The Santa Fe has been prepared for years to build a new station, but owing to the fact that the union terminal question has been hanging fire in the different courts, it would be foolhardy to go ahead with their program. Now since the supreme court has handed down a decision, that the interstate commerce commission has no power to order the railroads to build a joint depot. It is thought they will begin operations at once. Should this becomes a reality the Santa Fe red caps will have a new home to work out of. CLAIM SANTA FE YARDS WILL MOVE, TO U. P. Yard employees, were all excited last week over the latest report, that on March 1st. The Santa Fe Railroad will move there present yards at 7th Street to a site in the neighborhood of the Union Pacific yards, should this be done, yard employees will either have to swarm the markets for second hand Fords, or stay up half the night in order to get to work on time. This will also work a hardship on the Pullman Porter arriving on early morning transcontinental trains. WOMEN'S ECONOMIC COUNCIL MEMBER LOOSES HUSBAND Mrs. Cook, A member of the Women Economic Council of Los Angeles, was deprived of her husband through death last week. Mr. Cook has been sick for some time, and put up a hard battle for life, but finally succumbed to his illness. The Angels Funeral Home-had charge of the funeral.

Harriman gives the trophy each year in memory of her husband, former chairman of the Harriman lines. TILLMAN TAKES OILMEN TO CONVENTION Pullman Porter Tillman, regular line man operating on the Chief, and living in Watts, Calif., got a break last week, when he caught a private car of California Oil men enroute to their convention in Chicago. Porter Tillman has been off for several trips with a bad cold, and after loosing much time, he considers this a good break. Mr. Tillman is just about fed up on the hard Chicago winters, and when interviewed by the writer, made the remark that he will soon transfer to Los Angeles. We hope he is in earnest about it, and will welcome him to the land of sunshine when he comes. Mr. Tillman has his own home in Watts, but on account of operating out of the Chicago East District, does not have long to stay at home.
