1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1930 Sheffield In San Quentin VOLUME 42 ON THE SIDEWALK BY C. A. B. It is passingly strange that Americans, who are more than four centuries old in the school of superior civilization, are still producing a group within its group which feast on the strange, ridiculous ideas and notions that in order to increase their grade of importance, it is necessary for them to depress the darker peoples. Here in the Eastern section of Los Angeles, we have a group of poor whites, who have banded themselves together under the title of Home Protective League. By keeping our finger on the pulse of things in this city, we have learned that the acts of hatred practiced by this Home Protective League have been stimulated by some of our city officials, among whom, it is alleged, is Councilman Lewis, who, we learn was at the last meeting of the Home Protective League urging the members of the same to use every means to shut Negroes out of certain sections east of Main. --- We have in our possession the last communication sent out by the League calling the attention of white residents in the vicinity of East 45th Street to the fact that the League had won its first skirmish with the Negro, which was the case of the Rev. Mrs. Sally Trainor; but says the League, we must fight on until the fourteen lots occupied by Negroes in the vicinity of Wall and San Pedro Streets are restricted and we, the white people of the community can make the restrictions on these as well as the Trainor porperty stick. However, real legal talent costs money. In order to prosecute a case against the Negro in the 200 block of 45th Street, it will cost a substantial sum of money. A committee has been appointed to solicit funds from those who would benefit from a favorable decision, and who therefore should be interested." --- And now, Black citizens, who own property in and about the 200 block of 45th Street, we too come to you with an appeal at this time, and our appeal is this. That you too call a big mass meeting at which time not only fiery speeches be given in behalf of residential protection for black folk but a fund be raised with which to secure the best legal talent available by us to fight this pernicious propaganda circulated by this Home Protective League. Our lives, our liberty and our homes should be as sacred and as carefully protected by us as those of the white owners. Heretofore, it was bad enough to feel that movements to keep colored people out of certain districts was sufficiently un-American in text to claim our attention, but when it comes to driving Negroes out of their own homes, bought and paid for by them, such as was the case of Mrs. Trainor, indicates that it is high time for us to get busy as a group and intelligently fight back. --- "Let him who would be free, first strike the blow." It has come to us by good authority that the ouster case of Mrs. Trainor came up before Judge Gates on last Wednesday morning and that by a motion of Victor A. Bentson, attorney for the Home Protective League the ouster motion was set aside. Just what this trick upon the part of the League's attorney stands for, we are unable to say but we do suggest that our vigilant committees connected with the N. A. A. C. P. and other organizations will keep watch on this so-called Home Protective League and fight this attempt to drive Negroes out of their hard-earned homes, to a finish, which includes no stop shorter than the Supreme Court of these United States: The Women's Auxiliary of the Pyramid Co-operative Association held a rousing meeting, Tuesday evening last, at the Palomares home of Mr. and Mrs. Gafferson. The women, representing this organization have centered their attention on a goal of economic freedom for Western Negroes, and are on the eve of launching a conscious awakening campaign of the Race's true economic value to itself. These women who compose this organization are honest, earnest, hard-working, and determined to lay, the foundation for a better economic structure for incoming generations. This column is here and now dedicating itself to the cause of this economic freedom program strated by the women of the Pyramid Co-operative Association. Juanita F. Edwards Appointed Juvenile Officer Juanita F. Edwards Appointed Juvenile Officer After two years' voluntary service in the Juvenile Bureau of the Police Department, Juanita F. Edwards has been regularly appointed to work out of that division. Mrs. Edwards, during her two years voluntray service, demonstrated peculiar fitness for the place which she now occupies. So effectively did this young woman serve that she elicited high praise and commendation from not only those with whom she worked, but also from her chief, Mrs. Minnie Barton. While it is an indisputable fact that Mrs. Edwards has long since qualified for this position, for some unknown reason the appointment was held back until a few weeks ago when her case was brought to the attention of the City Council by Councilman E. Snapper Ingram, at which time the appointment was looked upon favorably by most of the councilmen, but especially Messrs. Ingram and Lewis. After Mrs. Edwards' case had been favorably considered by the City Council, it was brought to the attention of both Civil Service and Police Commissions, and on last Tuesday morning, February 25, Mrs. Edwards was cited for appointment. Mrs. Edwards is a graduate of JUANITA F. EDWARDS Straight College, class of 1914. She taught in the public schools of New Orleans after graduation and came to Los Angeles in 1918, taking up the cudgel of managing editor of the New Age Dispatch, which she very credibly filled for a number of years. During all of this time Mrs. Edwards was a close student of criminology and it is said that upon one occasion when Chief Davis called for an oral test for an emergency appointment, Mrs. Edwards as a result of this examination, was placed at the head of the list of highly trained social workers. Los Angeles' club women, many of whom watched the outcome of Mrs. Edwards' effort to serve her city, community and race along the line for which she was best prepared, are rejoicing with her at this time and predict that her service in the Juvenile Department will add to the already high records set by those who proceeded her, namely: Mrs. Wren Reed and Mrs. Morgan Robinson. Madam Brooks Signally Honored Last Sunday, Mme. Brooks was the guest of honor at a dinner party given by Mr. and Mrs. John Knox (white) of Atlantic Ave., uncle and aunt of Edith Knox who has just won her sixth Scholarship as the leading piano student of the United States. She goes to the Juliillard Institute of Music, New York City where charges are seventy-five dollars the half hour. Our Mme. Brooks herself was a few years ago known as a student par excellence having won University Scholars hips in Violin, Piano, French and Latin studies. Mme. Brooks came to California three years ago and opened the Brooks Conservatory of Music at 1334 R. 48th Street She has had pupils to win both the gold and silver medals in Violin and Piano playing in California championship contests being the only race teacher to ever have a medal winner in these contests. After dinner a few hours of music were enjoyed Mme. Brookes playing spina brilliant Piano and Violin numbers. She was accompanied at the piano by Katharine and Anita Collins in twin two talented pupils of the Brooks Conservatory of Music. LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1930 CALIFORNIA EAGLE LAUNCHES PRIZE CAMPAIGN LEADING CITY OFFICIALS AND PUBLIC SPIRITED CIT IZENS PROCLAIM COUNCILMAN WIN J. SANBORN IDEAL PUBLIC SERVANT AND REAL AMERICAN Los Angeles To Hear Alice Dunbar Nelson With a program that promises much interest and enthusiasm, the Los Angeles Civic League will assemble in its regular meeting at the Y. M. C. A. Club rooms on Sunday afternoon, March 2nd at 4:30 o'clock.

Smith & Williams Expand Some twenty-one years ago the well known firm of Smith and Williams, funeral directors open for business in Main Street in a little cottage remodeled to have the business. Through efficient business methods the company concern has grown by leaps and bounds until today it ranks as one of the leading concerns of its kind operating in the west. Having several years ago out grown the old location a new home was erected on the present site 1133 South Central and the Co. continued to grow. J. F. DUGAS Wishing to maintain its high standard of service, Mr. J. F. Dugas has been added to the concern. Mr. Dugas has had over 30 years practical experience in embalming and Dome Surgery. Comenting on his connection with this popular firm, Mr. Dugas had the following to say: "It is a pleasure to have my name associated with the above concern in a business with LEADING CITY OF IZENS PROCLAIM IDEAL PUBLIC Before an audience of more than four hounded persons, in the form of a banquet, assembled in the Roosevelt High School. (Boyle Heights) the official conduct of Mr. Sanborn, for the past ten years, received the stamp of approval from many speakers, among which were his Honor Mayor John C. Porter, Honorable Joe Scott, and Principal Thomas H. Elson. Each speaker advised and warned the audience against the cunning proproganda destined to deceive and destroy the very foundation of the American Ideals. It was claimed that some of these unscrupulous and disgruntled agitators are circulating petitions for the recall of Mr. Sanborn, in which they find much difficulty in securing sightures. They have, therefore, devised to deceive the public by spreading false reports with regard to his stand upon the Water and Power program. Defeated in this attempt, by a public letter issued by W. B. Matthews, Counsel for the Water and Power Bureau, they have hitched themselves to the Cement Trust proprogandist's 'and attacks, councilman Sanborn, on his open stand in the interest of the people as against that of the Cement Trust. By declaring himself, in favor of the Alphonso Bell propposition, that would bring to our community another and permanent industry. Should we destroy the霉 that hays the golden egg? The following is copy of letter and excerpts from the Heights News. The following is a statement signed by W. B. Matthews, Chief Counsel COSTS NOTHING TO TRY---THERE WILL BE NO LOSERS NOTE: On pages four and five of this issue appears a comprehensive description of the California Eagle's big Automobile Prize Campaign and Subscription Drive. Rules and Regulations together with full information will be found on these pages. We are for 5,000 new subscribers to the California Eagle! Are you with us? While the California Eagle is a favorite in its field and already enjoys a wide circulation, this newspaper, in keeping with its progressive policy is desirous of increasing its family of readers in Los Angeles and surrounding towns and communities. With this end in view, and to accomplish it quickly, and at the same time give friends and readers an opportunity to profit in a big way, the California Eagle today announces the most liberal prize offering ever made by any weekly newspaper in the State of California—a campaign in which a brand new 1930 model Essex Sedan, fully equipped, worth $1050.00; $500.00 in Gold; a beautiful Genuine Russian White Fox Fur, worth $225.00; a lovely Genuine Red Fox Fur, worth $175.00; a stylish Genuine Pony sport coat, worth $150.00; a fairly Apex Rocket worth $127.50; one of the new model Majestic Radios, worth $116.50 and $50 in gold. Besides 75 cash purses, which will be given to all active candidates who fail to win one of the regular listed prizes, but shall receive a commission of fifteen per cent of all money collected by them. SALESMANSHIP The are of salesmanship is being expounded by all the leading business concerns today. The California Eagle has decided to use this unique method to increase its already large list of readers and instead of the old method of engaging solicitors to do this work, the California Eagle will distribute Continued On Page 6 which I have had 30 years practical experience. I wish to let all of my friends know that I am now connected with them and prepared to give the same service which for 30 years has carried the label of satisfaction. for the Municipal Water and Power Bureau of Los Angeles for over 20 years; in fact, ever since its establishment, and prior to that time, was City Attorney and handed the legal matters for the development of municipal water and power: The agitation in certain quarters for the recall of Councilman Sanborn is, in my opinion, highly unjust to a faithful and capable public servant and opposed to the best interests of the city. The municipal water and power utilities have achieved fame and success because of efficient management and the support they have received in official circles as well as among the people generally. Mr. Sanborn, as a member of the council, has always, by vote and influence, backed the city's Water and Power Department. His record in that particular has been remarkably consistent throughout his long service on the council. Some friends of water and power, at time, may have waivered in their suport, but never Mr. Sanborn. In fairness to Mr. Sanborn, We trust the people of his district will discourage and oppose any effort looking to his recall. Mayor Porter in his brief address declared Wm Sanborn to be one of the best representatives in the Council and urged great support for him. "He typifies all that is good Americanism and patriotism and has the respect of everyone who comes into Visits Home of Black Silver Fox Company Through the courtesy of Dr. J. T. Whittaker on last Sunday we visited the Central Home of the Silver Black Fox corporation of which Dr. Whittaker is the president. The place is located near the summit of the cajon mountain just a few miles this side of Victorville and 6 miles from the Big Bear Mountain. Arriving at the home of the Black Silver Fox we were amazed at the magnitude and bigness of the farm and its appointments thirty acres fencing indestructible by fire or the elements and countless screened in enclosures where in pairs the valuable Silver Fox were kept. Every appointment necessary for the upkeep of such a large place were at hand. The water system, food grinders, refrigerators, etc. We were further informed that Dr. Whittaker started in about six years ago with one pair of foxes had run the heard up to more than 75 pairs with a valuation of plant and foxes well nigh unto $150,000.00. With unselfishness devotion he has put his holdings in as a part and parcel of the newly former corporation and will sell some 45,000 shares of stock thereby develop further and making the farm the largest in the entire country at the same time allowing for a guaranteed interest and dividend to each stockholder. His effort indeed is the most outstanding accomplishment and offers the best and surest return upon your investment of any ever heard of by members of any group. Composed in the group were many prominent citizens of both races the far famed movie prodigy and his parent "Farina" was there. All sorts of weather was encounted on the trip, beginning with sunshine, snow, sleet and rain. The ranch however was the most pleasant place to be especially so as the Dr. served hot coffee and luncheon par excellent. LIC SPIRITED CITI- N J. SANBORN, EAL AMERICAN contact with him. If Americanism means loyalty to the flag and the Constitution, there is no better man than Win Sanborn". The keynote address was delivered by the Hon. Joe Scott, able orator, who stirred his audience in upholding Americanism and denouncing communism. Time and again, the throng burst into applause as he compared life under Americanism and under Communism. Tracing Americanism from the time of Lincoln when that young gaunt rail-splitter struggled against all odds to achieve success, Mr. Scott pointed out the opportunity for the young men and women of today who show true patriotism. He concluded by supporting Win Sanborn as a true representative of Americanism, now the "victim of insidious forces." He urged his audience to go out and fight for Americanism by enlisting support for one of "the greatest peoples' servent in the city hall." The final speaker of the evening was Thomas H. Elson, principal of the school who spoke briefly upon Americanism as exemplified by Theodore Roosevelt. The theme of his address was that the best way of preserving Americanism is to keep into political office real Americans. "The record of Mr. Sauben," he declared. "is one of which any American may well be proud. With such men in offices we are assured of toy Far West To Hear Wm. Pickens On 3 Months Tour For The N. A. A. C. P.

Co-operation the Future Hope of the Negro By MENTIS CARRERE The word-"Co-operation" enjoins a wide and varied usage and is defined as follows:-"Operating jointly together to the same end; working together." Sometimes co-operation is stressed for the betterment of mankind in general, other times to make a few powerful men more powerful. Quite often co-operation is urged for constructive purposes, other times for destructive purposes. For instance: Co-operating with the community in which you live to keep it clean so as to prevent disease and make it a fit place to live in is co-operation that benefits all concerned, and is constructive. Co-operating with the Ku Klux Klan in their propaganda for racial and religious intolerance, benefits no one, and is destructive. Of the various kinds of co-operation there are two kinds I wish to deal with in this article, namely: Producers' Co-operation and Consumers' Co-operation. When I say "producers" I mean those who cultivate and market the products of the soil. The purposes of the Producers' Co-operative Association are: 1-To get a fair price for their products. 2-To standardize their products. 3-To reduce shipping rates. 4-To receive better returns on their labor and investment by eliminating as far as practicable the middleman. The purposes of the Consumers' Cooperative Association are: 1-To save the profits to the consumer. 2-To relieve economic suffering of the masses. 3-To eliminate an unequal distribution of power. bundon of power. When these two systems are developed to the point where they will clasp hands there will be the dawning of a new day for the masses. What is Consumers' co-operation? It is a membership organization wherein every member owns an equal share and derives equal benefits through their purchasing power. Each member has one vote and uses that vote to elect a board of directors to carry on the business of the organization. Consumers' co-operation takes in the masses who, for the most part are workers. Since the Negro race is overwhelmingly a working people consumers' co-operation is the only system that will lit into their scheme of racial betterment when all other systems fail. For that reason I shall devote the remainder of this article to consumers' co-operation and how it affects the Negro race.

M. reaching San Quentin last Saturday morning. Sheffield went from the County jail to his present abode upon his own request. He has an appeal pending and could have remained here in the county jail until a decision of the higher court. However if the court should decide against this appeal he would get no Credit on his sentence for time spent in the County Jail. In the usual order of things his appeal will not be decided upon for 12 months. Dr. H. C. Hudson, Pre. N. A. A. C. P.

American Woodmen Launch Gigantic Membership Campaign $1.000 IN CASH PRIZES DISPEN- SATION ALLOWED A gigantic membership campaign which has for its motive the addition of one thousand and new members to the local camps will be launched by the twenty-five hundred Los Angeles Woodmen beginning March 1st and continuing for ninety days.

BLACKSTONE DIES—WELL KNOWN PULLMAN PORTER LOSES VALIANT FIGHT AGAINST SICKNESS H. K. Blackstone died Wednesday night after a game fight to regain his health which has been on the wane for the past year. Blackstone fought a losing battle, with a spirit undaunted until the final moment. Only recently a call was sounded within railroad circles for some porter to sacrifice enough blood to enable the doctors to perform a blood transfusion, to prolong the veterans life. J. BELL, JR. ANSWERS CALL J. Bell, Jr., was the first porter to offer his blood for a transfusion to save Blackstone's life and sacrifice was accepted by the physicians in charge at the General Hospital. Mr. Blackstone gained as a result of this transfusion, gave signs of some hope, although it was only temporary and the last spark of life flickered out Wednesday night. POPULAR AMONG PORTERS Mr. Blackstone was 55 years old at the time of his death, and was very popular among the porters and waiters in Los Angeles. He always had a smile and a pleasant word for everybody. He operated the Bakersfield run for a number of years, and was on this line when ill health overtook him. He loved to play pool, and took great delight in triming the boys during his spare time. MANY CONTRIBUTE TO FLORAL PIECE Practically every porter that could be reached, contributed to a huge floral piece for the deceased funeral, which was held from the Angelus Funeral Home, last Tuesday at 1 p. m. and attended by a large body of railroad men and women. Full particulials of the funeral will be published in next week's issue. J. R. PETERS PASSES AWAY Los Angeles was given another shock and surprise, when, after just recovering from the bad news of Mr. Blackstone's death, they were informed of the passing of J. R. Peters, veteren Pullman Porter, and on the retired list of the faithful. Mr. Peters 75 years of age at the time of his death, and has survived the wristlegs of a retired Pullman Porter for the past five or six years. HAD MAID QUARTERS Directly after Mr. Peters was retired, he was given charge of the maid's quarters, and being a railroad man to the last, he took great delight in relating his railroad experiences to the maids who stopped at his home. OPERATED ON THE LARK Mr. Peters was one of the charted porters of that famous train, "The Lark" and run upon it up to the very day he was placed on the reftiled list. Business men in all walks of life knew old John as they called him. He was considered a landmark on this high-class palace on wheels. BORN A SLAVE One of the most remarkable facts of Mr. Peters' life was that he was born a slave and through 40 years of service with the Pullman Company he acquired a traveling education that was a revelation to all he came in contact with. HANDLES PRESIDENTS Presidents of the United States were many times passengers of Mr. Petens, during his career and he knew them well enough to call them by their first name. BURIED IN UNIFORM Sleeping in a beautiful gray casket, old John was laid to rest in his Pullman uniform displaying eight stripes for faithful service. The funeral was preached by Rev. E. H. Eldridge assisted by Father Clechhorn. Remarks were made by Mr. C. Lincoa, retired Pullman Superintendent of the Pullman Company and Mr. Percy Buck. A very beautiful solo was rendered by Mr. Eldridge. The following porters were pall bearers: J. Harris, B. Houston, J. Ponder, L. W. Davis, B. A. Hogood, and C. Smith. Interment at Eversreen. SOUTHERN PACIFIC Mr. E. J. (Pat) Williams is en route to New Orleans to visit the sleed bed. side of his mother and sister. He reports that while he is in that city he will take in the Mardi Gras. F.

Dawey Sims, popular waiter on the Golden State is on the sick list. Prof. Grear will hold down Mr. Sims' run while he is away. The Golden State will have new linen for lunch only. A brass band will be in order for the illen men to sing by. D. C. Inspector Smith was on board 104, but was in a very good humor. E. L. ARNÄR APPPOINTED ASSISI- TANT TO CHAS. UPTON Feeling that the rapid progress of doings in railroad circles, are becoming to vast for one hard working human to take care of, and cover accurately, the Railroad Clatter feels highly honored and fortunate in being able to announce the appointment of Mr. B. L. Arnaud, former chairman of the L. A., safety-first committee, and wide awake Pullman Poster of this District, as assistant to the editor of this column. Mr. Arnaud will endeavor to give the boys a fair break with the latest in railroad news along with the writer. Mr. Arnaud's address is 1239 East 42nd street, Humbolt 1702-W. If you cannot get in touch with me, Phone Arnaud. UNION PACIFIC MAY GET FILM TRADE With the marriage of Miss Cecilia DeMille, daughter of Cecil DeMille, President of the Association of Motion Picture Producers, to Mr. Francis Calvin, former vice-president of the Union Pacific railroad; figures in railroad circles were watching with interest the influence of Miss DeMille's husband toward plucking the fat pimf of the film business, at present held by the Santa Fe. W. B. HOLLAND ILL W. B. Holland, well known Paulman Porter of this District, and a regular line "Lark" man, is at this writing indoposed at his residence under the care of a doctor. It is thought that Mr. Holland is suffering from a nervous breakdown. The Railroad Clatter wishes him a speedy recovery. H. W. WEEKS LEAVES SERVICE After a year of hard labor in the Southern Pacific yard, cleaning cars, H. W. Weeks, formey Pullman Porter of this District, is out of the service. It was rumored that Mr. Weeks after working faithfully on a promise of being reinstated in the sleeping car department, slipped up on the blowing of a car, and lost his chance to redeem himself. HAS BLACK JACK TO KILL BREAKER And now we drift to the city of South Los Angeles, where there resides a popular young gentleman by the name of J. W. Perry, and be it hereby known that Mr. Perry believes if carrying protection on these wild Pullman cers, it seems that on the line that Mr. Perry has been operating on it has been infested with snakes, and for Mr. Perry's protection from these vicious reptiles, he dropped a blackjack in his traveling bag. It is claimed he killed a few of these monsters, who squirmed off of his car at Portland, and laid the weapon away in his return trip. Looking for new fields, he conquered on his S. P. depot, he was slightly bitten by a E. P. official who could not understand what it was all about. Mr. Perry, so I have been led to understand by one of my operatives, is now on the waiting list. It seems that a man cannot protect his own ride now days! "LARK" 20 YEARS OLD MAY 8 The "Lark," crack Southern Pacific limited and best all the year around train in the United States, not barring the famous Twentieth Century limited will be twenty years old on the 8th of May, and, as I am informed by my assistant, the first diner car number was 10016. Just what the menu was on that memorial evening I have not yet been able to determine, as Traveling Chef Thomas Harrison claims he was a mere baby at that time. Believe it or not, however, I shall charge my operatives to seek the names of the Pullman Porters who did the act of spreading sheets 20 years ago and pliate same to you in a later issue, and further, at that time there were two "Larks," two "Owls" and two "Sunsets," but I must stop, how could there be two "sunsets?" G. D. SMOCK PLANS TO ORGANIZE SAFETY-FIRST CLUB Plans are being formulated by Porter G. D. Smock to organize what is to be known as a Safety club. It is the plan of Mr. Smock to have the club meet at least once a week in a sort of social get-to-gether manner, in which refreshments will be bountiful served. He asks that all porters interested in joining the club to be on hand at his residence, Oct. 16th at 7:30 p.m. Give him a break. You would not be here today if it were not for Safety methods. PULLMAN PORTER CLAIMS RECORD FOR EATING D. Davenport, of the San Francisco District, is reputed to be the biggest eater in the service, not barring P. J. Anderson, who can go so himself. Davenport was doubled to Los Angeles, out of Sacramento. As a rile he operates to a town called Sparkes. However, even though he was in strange territory, he was not without food. He had a little snack along with him to hold him till dinner time; just a half a turkey, three leaves of bread, pound of butter, three cans of beans, and one can of tomatoes, but he did not have enough for breakfast, so he went into the diner.

After just having recently been set back on his line, it seems as if Mr. Seals failed to lock his toilets coming to the city which of course is a penitentiary offense!

Woods, who has not been in The Week's Editorial (WHITE PRESS) From the Charleston, S. C. News Courier, Jan. 19, 1930 SOCIAL EQUALITY IN JAIL Two hundred Negro convicts in the federal prison in Atlanta were leased to the convict commission of Georgia; to work on the roads; but the contract has been cancelled by the office of the attorney general of the United States; the Society for the Advancement of the Colored People having objected to the "discrimination." This society doubtless believes that Negro thieves, or forgers are good enough to associate with white thieves and forgers. It may be. Anyway, a mighty blow has been struck for social equality of the races. A colored counterfeiter presumably is allowed to sit at table with a white post office robber. Members of congress, Democrats among them, criticized the lease on the ground that it would take employment from free labor. One supposes that no one will be required to work for the support of these convicts when they do not work for themselves. Tax-payers will do nothing to maintain them in idleness—anyway, Senator "Bob" Wagner of New York seems to thing so. Probably he fancies that free laborers do not pay taxes when they buy cigarettes. He is not puzzled. We are. How to have prison population maintained as a leisure class without some other class paying the bills only politicians and some of the labor leaders can understand, and if this country contains any laboring people who do not pay taxes we have yet to see one of them. Probably if some of our earnest friends could have their wish realized that two or three millions of the "felons" who encourage the bootleggers be sent to jail, the unemployment problem would be solved. The citizens out of jail would have plenty to do, they would have to work like—the dickens, so they would. Were all the white conspirators who violate the prohibition laws, the buyers, the transporters, and the drinkers of "liquor" imprisoned, the colored people in the federal prisons would certainly be in "society" at last and the Society for the Advancement of the Colored People might sing the doxology and adjourn sine die, having achieved its objects. The News and Courier has out of date notices. It does not believe that a bootlegger or a moonshiner is depraved, as a burglar, thief, or bank defender is. It thinks that violators of the liquor laws—and smugglers—belong to the more respectable criminal classes. It holds that even in prison there should be a measure of separation of the races. A great many better people than we are think differently—they are convinced that white bootleggers and black bandits should be locked up together. That is what they vote for here in South Carolina when they vot for and uphold federal prohibition, whether or not they mean to do so. By the way, in South Carolina bootlegging and moonshining seem to be for the most part white folks' jobs. The Negroes have a lowly part in them. The Society for the Advancement of the Colored People is apparently doing nothing to check this form of Southern racial discrimination. TO TRANSFER TEXAS PRIMARY CASE FROM FORT WORTH TO NEW ORLEANS New York Jan. 31. Because the Fort Worth division, of the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals does not meet until the Democratic primaries are over in 1930, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People through the attorneys in the case has applied to have it transferred from Fort Worth to New Orleans. The New Orleans division of the federal court will sit in time for the Negro Democrats to have their case heard before the primary election from which it was sought to har them. Messrs. Arthur B. Spingarn, of New York, and Fred C. Knollenberg and E. F. Cameron, of El Paso, N. A. A. C. P. counsel for D. Nikon, have agreed with the defense counsel, who concurs in the motion for transfer of the case in order that it may be heard before the primary election. The present case tests the right of a Democratic state committee, to bar colored voters from a primary election, following the U. S. Supreme Court's decision in the first Texas White Primary case that the state could not bar colored voters by law. This is one of several such cases undertaken by the N. A. A. C. P., one o'rall of which may go to the U. S. Supreme Court to affirm the principle established in the White Primary Victory of 1927. The N. A. A. C. P. is financing a similar ca. West v.

Friday, February 28, 1920 BOOK CHAT "BORN TO BE" By Taylor Gordon. Published by Covici-Friede, 79 West 45th Street, New York City. Price $4.00. New York City. Price $4.00 With apologies to Mr. Gordon, I must note first that Covarribias has made the illustrations for this book. Some of them are in color, all of them are marvellous. The first two plunge one at once into the story. Gordon, a little boy, passes drinks in a house of prostitution, and a few pages later, in prim Sunday clothing, sits outside his family's sulphur little frame, house at White Sulphur Springs, Montana, his brother on one side, his mother on the other. Incidentally, these pictures account for the high price of an otherwise modest book. Negro autobiography before this has confined itself chiefly to stories of sober colored youths working their way through Hampton or Tuskegee; latter, at the cost of incredible hardships, starting schools of their own, schools to be helped financially by the sale of the autobiographies. "Up From Slavery" is the great and classic example of this story. But no schools will be financed by Taylor Gordon's book. In fact, I doubt if it is allowed on many library shelves. It is a tale without a moral, written with that frankness to ward things sexual that is characteristic of today. Without style and yet with occasional charming phrases, it purports to be a true autobiography, and if we occasionally feel that the writer is embroidering a bit, we accept it in good part. Should not every story be improved by the telling? Taylor, Gordon grew up in a white town, with white boys, a small frontier town, where there were plenty of practical jokes and good geeaws, and where he was installed at a very early age as page and cash boy in "Big Maud's new house on the sporting line." Here he ran errands and occasionally got a big tip, graciating into a gambling house where he set up pins, and got thrown out for fixing the pins to bring luck to a generous friend. When a man, to his mother's deep regret (his father died when was an infant), he left home to seek his fortune, making his first stopping place St. Paul. What that fortune was, one must read to learn. It ends with Taylor Gordon a successful singer on the concert stage. It also, despite his amorous adventures with various women, white and colored, leaves him unmarried. Women and money, he is convinced, must go together, and when he has the one he cannot capture the other. He lectures the Negro in his pages quite as a white man would, and perhaps for the same reason, since he did not become acquainted with his people or with the race problem until he grew up. But he is always good-natured, and sometimes says a shrewd word. As an instance, this criticism of present day Hampton singing: "Nathaniel Dett directed the Hampton Institution Chorus. It was the greatest demonstration of how my people hate to be themselves. He had a large group of good voices and they were trained to sing Negro Spirituals like an Episcopal Choir would sing a Greek Easter greeting on that great Sunday morning." Carl Van Vechten, in his foreword, calls this an extremely amusing book. Muriel Draper, in her introduction, speaks seriously and appreciatively of this human record, this flowing stream, written much as Taylor Gordon would talk, "bit unified by the steady curiosity of a man who forever wants to know what he was born to be." Russia Local Wrestling fans will remember the good-natured giant Reginald Siki the only Negro Wrestler to reach first flight ranks on Lou Daro's famous mat events. Lou craves Siki back or some other equally good to add color to his colorful programs. Here is a letter from Tallinn-Estonia which is supposedly somewhere in Russia and Reginald now, married seems to be doing very fine, but still thinks of the "States". My Dear Sir: I thought you might be interested or the Los Angeles, sport-fans perhaps will be interested in my activities on this side of the brinny-deep; therefore I am writing you this letter. I sailed from the States the last time March 17, 1928, from New York to Oslo, Norway, where I met Macnair Johanson, the Norwegian heavyweight leather-pushing champion, who successfully K. O. ed in the first half of the 5th; March 31, 1928. A week later I met Toni Saporini, a hard slugging Italian, in Copenhagen, Denmark; April 9th. He was a good slugger but can't take 'em and with a continued shower of lefits I won by a technical knock-out in the 2nd round. In the same month I won a prize of 2000 zloties ($222.22) in Cracow, Poland, by defeating Lolek Szczerbinski, the nephew of Stanislus Zbyzko, in an hour and ten minutes with a crochet hold and half helen. I won 5000 zloties (555.53) the second prize in a tournament in Warsaw. Stanislaus Zbyzko, the first prize $10000 zloties. I can send you clipping of my matches and activities such as these I am enclosing if you like but you will find them in the various European languages and not in English. I can likewise send you news from time to time of other interesting feats of other colored athletes in Europe. fits individually: from every community improvement, whether that im- nat ‘takes the form nced pubic works, ‘population growth, increas- Prospérity or ‘business. lopment. pe si ey a No. communiity:is so: miserable and ‘unattractive that it Has mot its boosters and none So perfect it has not its knockers, but that city or town achieves: most :in-civic: betterment which has the most. boosters, > There’ are ‘boosters and many of/them in Los Angeles.

Direct advertising pays, but the kind of boosting that pays the highest dividends is sober and per- severing endeavor of the kind that builds and beautifies the community. A writer in a current magazine observes “if the newspaper is just 2 little better than its town, the latter is the gainer thereby.” Towns and their newspapers usually Jag or lead together. Progress- ive journalism is the unfailing tonic of the lethargic community, but it'is equally true that a lifeless’ newspaper can seriously retard the develop- ment of its community. ‘There is no better community asset than a home newspaper equal te the needs of the community. While a poor newspaper is better than than none to the individual reader, that does not hold true for the town. What can a good newspaper do for its community? It can serve as the town’s messenger to the outside world. It must take the leadership in all community projects if they are to be successful. It is the infallible line of communication between local government and citizen. It is to the newspaper that all organizations turn for assistance in public wel- fare movements and without that assistance they face failure. The newspaper reaps the reward of its initiative by sharing in the general improvement of business and community affairs it has been in- strumental in bringing about. The good newspaper decms it a pleasure to serve. its community and its readers and is fully aware that it is only through giving a full measure of service that it can progress and prosper. HOW DO YOU READ® “Tell me what you eat, and | will tell you what you are.” has cried a publicist so often that he has coined a household axiom. Wel! might another say: “Tell me what you read and I will tell you what you are!” The mind is the house in which we live more truly than is the body If we furnish the mind garishly we must live in a garish house. If we furnish the mind carelessly, we must live in a slovenly house. If we take our mental furniture only from the past, we shall live in the pds alone. If we take it only from the faddish notions of the present we shall live amid fads and foibles, which vanish e’er we know them. But if, on the other hand, our mental diet is balanced, comprised of the foods tested by time and sauced and spiced by the piquancy of thy present, we may live a balanced, ordered life. We can with impunity pour poisons and dark,“ wild, disordekec ‘thoughts into our minds no more than we can day after day fin ‘strenath and health from spurious foods, hastily prepared. indigestible. , To read well, read discriminatingly, widely, thoroughly.

It was merely a sight-seeing jaunt through Hol- lywood and environs. Not even the persuasive arguments of Governor Young could induce them to visit the Capital of the Commonwealth. It is to be regretted. There are so many of the citizens throughout Superior California who would have liked to have seen the man, who guided the destiny of the nation and who has gained fame through his habitual trait of silence. Their stay was one of pleasure and their insight into the making of sound picttires must have been interesting. The former President will always be remembered as the executive who wrought or- der out of the chaos of a post war nation. It was ng sonal task to stabil- ize a war inflated government and bring sky high interests to earth without a crash., President Coolidge neither affirmed dr denied the in- vitation of Dakota, through Borglum, sculptor, to write the history of the United States, in five hundred words, to be cut in the mountain side. soe ee The prohibition battle confinues still to hold the spotlight in the legislative halls.

We think most of it uncalled for, certainly that against the appointee, if this individual can see his way clear. to accept said position no one should say aught. We are informed Prof. Shaw established his residence here several years ago, educated his children here, is a man of integrity and honor and will fill any position which he accepts with honor and credit. We may think what we like as to the motive of the administration, but the fact remains that'the group has a wee opening which .it never had before. From small beginnings larger things may come. Personally our opinion is that the gain for Governor Young politic- ally will be negligible on account of the fact that he was tardy in giving recognition and when he finally decided to do so he passed out the very smalest blessing possible. 7 THE DIOBOLICAL CEMENT TRUS T . The hook up of the pernicious Cement Trust to throttle the public officials who would dare to stand up and votg for measures which are in the interests of their constituents, no doubt will receive a jolt wheneger the issue is brought before the people. Starting in with the attempted recall of Councilman, Sanborn the voters of the Ninth District should, and doubtless will, give the Cement “Trust and their cohorts such a rebuke that will silence them for all time. In the first place as-we have ayrimnes stated before, the howl raised by Hearst papers and high-powered lawyers, is only a smoke screen to cover up the major attack of the Cement Trust. The trust will go to any length to prevent the erecting and starting of any Independent concern. What the people want is legitimate competition for cement. In this manner they will without question save millions of dollars to both the taxpayers and consumers as well. They are not@at all alarmed at the hue and cry of a subsidized press and its wail and hypocritical spasms about destroying the beautiful contour of the Santa Monica mountains or the attendant woes when the rocks are crushed miles away from the habi- tation of man, What they do want. however, is a fair and square deal and more work for the workers, this can be obtained only by courage- ous officials who will stand up at all times to do the things which mean the, most good to the most_ people. In this situation Win Sanborn has made good and the voters will so express themselves when they have the opportunity: to vote on the recall fomented by the nefarious Cement Trust, WANTED: CENERALS TO LEAD US TO VICTORY IN THE BAT- TLE FOR ECONOMIC INDEPENDENCE ‘The battle for economic victory and independence can be easily won if we can but prevail upon our people to wake up and visualize their own potential strengch, press forward and win the greatest victory in the memory. of man. Political organization will not get us anywhere; religious, fraternal and civie organization can be of immeasureable benefit if they will so to do The high brows will not serve us, the professional men hold back in their traces. With all of these impediments we can still gain victory. We are issuing a call to arms for the common, everyday men and wo- men of thesrace to organize Consumers Leagues and then and there put on the habiliments of warfare, go forth aind-win the battle for economic andependence tn this battle the housewives will be the key to success. We can no longer depend upon the forces which have assumed leadership in the past. but on the contrary the forces which we have heretofore passed up by the wayside are the very ones which will enable us to a victorious ending to the economic wariare. We start on our way with the goal in sight evidenced by the foilowing figures which give an insight into the great possibilities before us. : IF from this exposition of bare facts the race falters in its onward march and fails to visualize we are gnost certainly doomed.

It is criminal we opine for the Negro gvho lives off the. patronage of his own to find other channels, when there are members of his group to trade withs . This goes for the Negro physician, lawyer, dentist, undertaker, preacher and all people who exist from Negro patronage. This also reaches the white merchant who survives by Negro trade and is a complete justification of the slogan: “Don't spend your money where you cannot work.” This goes even further, and halts tHe merchant in his tracks who even refuses to advertise in legitimate Negro newspapers, We are vitally interested in this phase of Negro life, all other ques- tions are side issues with us.

TOWN LOYALTY No citizen is so powerful, none so humble, but what his town is an aid to him in some way or other.

Whenever a Prospective candidate is approached for some statement there is general- ly the stereotyped answer: “Nothing doing.” With the withdrawal of stout from the race for State Controller Ray Riley seems to have a clear field. Congressmen throughout the several districts are playing up to their constituents from Washington. Assemblymen are saying nothing, but are “sawing wood” through the mail. And so it goes on down the line. Aspirants for the office of Governor on the Democrat side are as thick as the fleas on the back of a hound dog. There is a big scramble as to who shall lead the “folorn hope.” Approach Governor C. C. Young and ask him when he is going to announce his candidacy. He will give you one of his genial smiles and assure you that it is plenty time, and August is along way off.

The partner did not deny, the taking of said funds but claim- ed that they were not purloined but were taken in order that the necess- ary fodder for the morning's. repast might be provided. Nevertheless: | “Billig” Brown was insistent that the Partner return said funds, and threatened to become beligerent. Whereupon the Partner proceeded to | provide itself with a persuasive instrument, known as a “zat” by some, and by the Fraternity of Gangsters as a “Rod.” When “Billie” had be- come insistant to the point of violence. the “gat” or “rod” began to smoke. “Billie” went through the window.

The following letter from Mr. B. A. Johnson, one of California's most intelligent and highly respected citiz- ens, unfolds the fact the decisions of Judge Hartley Shaw and othet_jur- ists based on the case of Fload vs. Ward, was a law which prevailed in anti bellum days even before the Mth and 15th Amendments had) been ratified: This situation will no doubt be an eye-opener to many citizens of ‘California and points to the fact that ig fully as insidious as “the : ice Sea Seien meets Set Rib te. fate wes’ ceatiibat Pace—Eleven ings were instituted under the: Re th - Amendment. “case ‘Was: finally decided by. the Spree’ Court ‘of California; Chief joe ves T.

The effect of that decision was to open the doors. of the public schools. to Negroes in many parts of the state as it was found impracticable (too expensive) to maintain equal separ-. ate schools for Negroes. The first instance. that I iremember was the closing of the colored school in Oak- land’ by the City Superintendent, Mr. Fred M. Campbell, sending the chil- dren to the various Districts. Miss Mary ‘Sanderson sas the. pets (Now Mrs. Mary Grasses, re siding in 32nd street, Oakland.) Substantially the same thing oc- « curred in San Francisco. But here in Sacramento, the Negro school con- tinued under the. separate law except that Negro children had to be admit- ted in the High’ schools. This con- dition cortiinued until the adoption of our present Constitution in 1879. There was a determined . epntest against it by. the business interests ‘and conservative elements because it wos Pesmested by the radical geioc les of the sand lot agitators led ‘by Bennis Kearney. But the Negroes generally voted for it, solely because all discriminations of the old Consti- tution were entirely eliminated, and as a matter of fact the word Negro does not appear in the present Con- stitution, which was regarded as full compensation for what defects may be found. The first Legislature convening thereunder in 188) had many laws to change to adjust them to the New Constitution and it was my privilgge to be one of a committee that waited on the Jeint Committee on Education of that Legislature, the general re- sults of which were that every dis- criminating provision of the old Statutes was stricken out except that Section of the Civil Code voiding marriages. Notwithstanding there was no le- gal authority for a Negro school, there was a school known as un- graded No. 2 maintained in this city about 15 years ago, but as attendance was optional it declined to such an extent that it was closed and the few children with the very efficient col- bred teacher wera absorbed in the Depaitment. Saic teacher became the principal of one of the standard schools, which she filled with eredit and honor until retired with a Ser- vice Pension. (Deceased 2 few years 2g0.) Somewhere about 1890 an dffort was made to establish 2 colored school somewhere near Visalia. “3 became the subject df legal action My recollection is that Chief Justice ‘W. He Beatty rendered the decision thit-there-was no such thing known to the laws of the state of California as a Negro school (I believe the ques- tion involved was one of funds for its support.) Now, Mr. Macbeth, it is my opin- ion (that has no legal value) that un- less the law has been changed “ot there has been some later decibién, that there is nothing in the school record that would be of any valde in the Swimming Pool Issue in your City. The Fourteenth Amendment of course is restrictive upon the state and I suppose all of its organized creatures; but if EQUALITY is maintained it becomes a_ Problem. The word Equality (the first in| the Tocsin of the French Revolution) is so very elastic when adversely Fon strued.” And then there is the wide Tatitude of the general Police Powers ‘of Municipalities exercised to the ex- tent of confiscation of property whereon adds to the problem. The lawmaking power of the State can undoubtedly furnish the remedy. | ‘The Hon. Stephen J. Field, a Jus- tice of the Supreme Court of the United States and perhaps the great- est jurist ever on the beneh of Cali- fornia, in rendering an opinion in a very important case laid it down as a, maxim of Jurisprundence that in Our System “there is no safeguard against the abuse of Power but that is founded in the Structure of the Government itself.” ° Now, in conclusion 1 make no pre- tention to legal knowledge but I have some very pronounced principles | of policy that I rigialy adhere to; and that is that I have never solicited any thing because I am a Negro, I have at all times advocated that Ne- groes refuse to accept officially any thing as such.

HALLELUJAH AND OLD TIME MINISTREL SHOW COMES TO TIVOLI When Nina Mac McKlennay beautiful dynamic star of Hallelujish alighted from a limousine at the Empress Theater in New York under the dazzling lights at the premiere of her noted play she was not more proud than she would be if she were here to see its presentation at the Tivoli Theater, 43rd and Central Avenue on Sunday, March 9, 10, and 11. For hundreds of her admirers will be on hand to see the feature that's listed as one of the seasons' best caused more discussion than any play produced in recent years. Mr. M. A. Ellsworth, manager of the popular and beautiful talkie house has done himself proud in securing this universally discussed picture he has brought to the doors of his appreciative patrons, the Race classic that seventy-five per cent of the colored population have not had the opportunity to witness. Before Hallejulah all other races had been featured in pictures except the colored race, but in Hallejulah there is a drama replete with the most tender love scenes, side splitting comedy situations, stark gripping, tragedy blood-curdling climaxes, soul stirring religious sequences and through it all as near perfect music as has ever been heard from the screen. Contrary to a few false representations not an inch of the great film belittles the Negro or his religion, but King Vidor in attempting to show some phase of Negro life has depicted scenes which every Negro must admit, can yet be seen in sections of the rural South. Rugerless of the fact of having sex with everyone should view it during its run at the Tivol, OLD TIME MUNSTREL SHOW As an added attraction the manager has organized an old time minstrel show, such as was a big purge in the days of Billy Kersands and other great black-face kings, Alton Reed's famous band will furnish the music which will consist of the very latest willisbobbles with Walt Disney, Walker, and other Knights of the burnt cork will be depicted on this memorable Sunday.

The Lone Wolf's formal, ball That was given on the thirtieth At the New Masonic Hall. People came in Yellow Taxis Peerless, Retopos, Black and Whites Others drove their Reos, Hudson's, Chervolets and Willys Knights. Should have seen the decorations The old Wolf, himself, was there With his tent upon the platform Looking like a millionaire. All his subjects wore tuxedos There were twenty-five; no jests You could tell them by their colors, Strung across their manly breasts. Now the music it was lovely. Good as any in the land, Made you think you were in heaven, Leon Rene and his band. Suple bodies danced devinely. Here and there a sweet refrain. Could be heard among the youngsters As they played some favirie strain. Happy faces did laugh gayly. Some were tan and some were brown. Some were near white, some were painted. As one sees in any town. All the ladies' gowns were lovely. Long, form-fitting, very ney; They were priceless, wide and sleeve- less. Most of them were backless too All the men were groomed like princes, With their patent leather hair, Diamond studs shone on their bosoms, And their clothes were made with care. Well, the punch bowl kept two busy, Served four hundred more or less. As they thronged about in numbers To relieve their thirstyness. Now when every skirt had vanished And the last tuxedo, gone, I looked back toward the platform, The dear Wolf was there, alone. —Iva O. Reed.

Mrs, Latham’s address was pleasingly received and she made an excellent impression. The last speech was made by Mr. ‘Wm. E.

There has been a decided interest throughout year in books or investments and financial matters. This of course, increased greatly during the fall. Plays and popular scientific books were also in demand. On the whole, interest in non-fiction was greater last year than ever before but this interest was largely restricted to non-fiction of the more popular type. Publishers are catering more and more to this demand for popular non-fiction and we find numerous books of this type on all subjects being published every month. In fiction one notices a trend toward the better novel in happier vein, in contrast to the more morbid and introspective types. War stories of the narrative type were more numerous and circulated more freely than ever last year. Translations have become fairly popular and social studies have increased somewhat in general appeal. There seems to be a perpetual interest in western, adventure and mystery stories, with a trend somewhat from the western story to the mystery or detective story. The public never tires of murder mysteries of every hue and description. We note a definitely increasing interest in Negro literature, due no doubt to the exceedingly large number of books appearing last year on this subject. In juvenile reading the subjects most in demand, in the order of their popularity, are: fiction, fairy tales, nature study, general science, aviation, history, biography and poetry. There seems to be an increased use of holiday and vocational material, stimulated no doubt by the schools, and more interest in biography and travel. In comparison with motion pictures medieval magic looks like a child's plaything, both as to the mechanism lying behind them and to the scope of the images. According to the latest statistics, every week the whole population of the United States goes under the spell of motion pictures, is carried by imagination all over the world, is gripped by emotions of actors; cries and laughs with them, forgetting for two hours everyday routine, cares and sorrows. Motion pictures have become one of the most influential social institutions, working with powerful means—by indirect suggestion and emotional appeal. Recently sound was introduced to the motion picture public. The advent of sound and talking pictures has startled and pleased millions of patrons with its added improvement. In order that the general public may understand with what processes this bewitching and spell-binding power is created Mr. Harold B. Franklin, president of the Fox West Coast Theatres, has written a book on "Sund Motion Pictures." The author feels that because such a very great interest has been evinced in the subject of sound which is causing an entire industry to adjust itself overnight to a new condition, such a book as this one will surely be justified. He covers the coming and growth of sound, the standard sound devices, productions in the studios, social and commercial use of sound, the foreign market, television, and the future of sound. In his chapter on "The Use of Sound" the author tells us: "Schools, libraries, shops, and commercial institutions may very well develop sound facilities and techniques of their own. In other words, the mechanization of sound is no more amusement enterprise. In the larger view, it takes on the proportions and reveals the implications of a world, or, at any rate, of a world.

Macbeth. The de- sire for money and the jealousy arous- ed when Negroes received the plaud- its and hero worship of the sporting throngs has led to a steady and sys- tematic elimination of the colored boys from the riding game just as efforts are being made to freeze them out of all sorts of preferred employment, the writer points out while he observes: “Negro race riders in. America are fast disappearing. Slowly, but. sure- by, they are droppiiig from the hazar- lous steeplechasing sport after having practically disappeared from the fiat. Last season there were not half a doz- en Negro jockeys and not many more cross-country riders.

LET US LEARN to differ political- ly without injecting our political dif- ferences into our social activities. THE GREATEST WEAPON for de- ieating racial prejudices is toler- ance, says a wise old Chinese proverb. ‘As members of the black race, but at the same time, law-abiding Ameri- cans, after having suflered almost God-like self-restraint. in the face of discrimination in residential restric tion, accommodation in public places, etc. etc.. directed especially against us, we are at that place whete tolerance ceases to be a vritue. IF WE AREF to judge the actians of the suposediy Americans, such the manager of the Largo Motion Bbc house, Watts, who tells a clean,~oul- tured young American women that in asking her to accept a seat in Jim Crow row that he is carrying out ‘the prises of the Parent Teachers’ Asso- ‘ciation, the Churches and the citizens, in. general of Watts, in so doing thén | we have reached the place where we will have to make « united fight for economic freedom. yo lf white Christians can stdp pray- ing long enough to interfere with the management of a cheap little moving picture house, such as the argo. Where mostly elfldren go, for fliver- sion and recreation, at this tinle we rise to suggest (fOthe “mixtstry,—civi and social organizations of South Tos Angeles and vicinity, that a commun- ity boycott movement be launched against this picture house—there is on ly one way to make this manager real- ize the significance of this insult, and that is by causing him to. miss’ the nickels and dimes throwa into his coffers weekly by black folk. UNLIKE ALIENS, we have not come to the United States to par- take of its prosperity. We are a purt of this nation, having come into being with ity and knowing our country as we do, we are cognizant of the fact that ALL Americans are not bound- ed on all four sides by Race Prejudice.

Going into a little, cheap, ten-cent show ip Watts, called the “Largo,” I purchased tickets for a little girl and myself, paying the price required for any seat in the house—for they have only. one pyice for all seats—twenty- five cents for adults and fifteen cents for children, I seated myself and pre- pared to enjoy the picture. I was then informed by the usherette that We would have to move out of the cen- ter and sit on the side. 1 inquired the reason for this as all the seats were the same price, and I had al- weys sat any place 1 paid my money to sit, as it was perfectly good United States money. 1 was told that it .was the manager's oviers."

He appeared. 1 then asked him why | should be annoyed 8 I had paid my money to see the picture like other citizens of the Uni- ted States? He informed me that I was asked to move on the side be- cause “the--wisite- people of. the. €or: munity of Watts were kieking be- cause they had to sit by the colored people, and that he was trying please ‘othey people by taking my money and osking me to set where he told me.. F told the gentleman that this was a free State and also that his ‘show house was a public place with one price on all seats, and furthermore, thet that was only 2 community show, also that if he took the colored citi- zens’ money they were entitled to the same privileges as. the white people. and that I would see an attorney and see why after paying the same price as other people I had to sit where he desired 1 should. I wes then in- formed that there was not another Negro except the’ little girl and my- self sitting in the center, also that his reasons for this was the P. T. A.. poor class of white people hed asked and other associations besides the poor class of white people had askad him to segregate the Negro. He said also that L was the only Negro to ouestion his right ‘to tell me where I should be seated, : Therefore I must bave beén: the only Neero that had nepve and sense enough to stand up for mv rights, for there was 2 crowd of them in the theatre at the time; and most always there is quite a few that go. for the community is fifty per cent black.

ANCE as to their rights. We are advancing’ in everything ex cert standing up and demanding our rights... So people, why not wake-up and take notice of what is going on and what is being heaped upon us. The manager also, tried to “sweel talk” me by seying how bright and in telligent I was, and how much sense [the colored people have and that he would just as soon sit amongst the colored people.as not, and it was not his wish to segregate, but it was the poor class of white people.

America, having already -possessed the machin- ery of production and distribution within her own borders, backed up her war victories, with greater economic development. The Jews, being lec from Egypt by Divine Power, had free rations for many. years, so as to make effective their wholesale migration. Aiter the revolution Russia at once be- gan to develop a system of distribution and production among the masses, and by that means has been able to with- stand adverse criticism, *international boycot, and defeat the enemies within her borders and without, Where two or more races reside within the same borders, under the same govefnment, and where onc of those races is oppressed, there is a lom by Pressed race tl by war, bloody revolution, 6r:'whole- sale migration. That means of pow- ch is economic co-operation. Econom- ic, co-operation not only “gives eeliet to the oppressed, but being permanent, forms 2 basis for all around racial and national advancement. It builds the oppressed without, begging or fighting and leaves no bitterness pebind. This (Continued On Page Five) Says Negroes Are Not More Susceptible To Disease than Oth- er Races ' (By A. N. P.)

It is expected of every onef us, at least to give careful consideration to every-advertisement on Ahese iwo pages and for the sake of returning the honor, if no more, please ¢o in the stores here named and Wow them that you are surely no less appreciative of the interest they have shown in choos- jing your paper for this important purpose. * The Neighborhood independent Food Dealers as are here spoken of, is the fellow vou know so well even by his first name and wh knows you exactly in the same manner.” He knows your children by name nad every one of them knows him. Now with this sort oh acquaintance and friendship it is easy to. reason that there is sdmething more than a cold foreign business relation and interest between you. It is very easy to reason that in a time when you will be compelled to ask favors in order to meet emergencies, it is this merchant whom you know by first name you will go to. This is alright. He is glad to be of that service to you. Now, there is only one thing required of you; that you show your appre- ciation by giving him a trial at your business. The more success- ful he is the successful the community in which you live will be. For it is this kind of merchant which spends his money where he makes it.

This movement is especially powerful jin England and continental Europe, | where the people engage co-operative ly in every’ field of production, distribu- | tion, and welfare work. Since 1884, | the year of its incepiion, the co-opera- | tive movement has increased in num- , ber from twenty-cight to seventy-five millions, twenty-five millions of these co-operators are in Russia alone. | The purpose of organization of the twenty-eight weavers was to pool | their meager earnings so as to buy the | necessities of life more cheaply and | distribute them-at cost. It was not their iftention to capture the trade | of the outsiders, but to reauce the cost | of Jiving to themselves by co-operative wholesale buying. Furthermore these twenty-eight weavers wanted to free themselves from the credit system that | Prevailed in,-those days. and the truck shops of their employers. Their ulti- | mate purpose was to create organiza- ltions of industry as would enable them to provide themselves with em- ployment and the necessiges of Hie. , | The results of the efforts of the | Rochdale pioneers have been, marvel- lous.

In England “last year the whole- sale co-operatives did a business: of over one and one-half billion of dol- lars, In Finland over 94% of all business is done through the co-op- eratives, This is remarkable when you consider that Finland is:a ru- ral country.

The club members were exquisitely gowned in the latest model evening gowns. Sydnetta Donew wore a floor-length pink tulle and taffetta; Louise Skanks and Mercidee Wright were also very charming in pink; Orvella Bridges was lovely in green tulle; Augusta Bacon, as usual, was winning in beige and powder blue; Juanita Terry was gowned in one of the season's latest green; Lilliane Brazley was the "same old Lil" in a lovely blue chiffon; Ruth Snowden, lovable Billy, was too darling in a pale green creation; Simmie Etta Johnson, club "talkie" was gowned in a floor-length, two-tone green taffetta. These girls were assisted by Irma Washington, with those charming oriental eyes, who was charming in yellow lace and June Burt equally as charming in a form, fitting blue chiffon. All these girls were distinguished from the other by their georgious corsages. Plenty of entertainment was furnished. Many prominent individuals were among the guests, the newest club was "The Vagabonds." The club wants to thank its many supporters and the few mothers that so willingly assisted the girls. On last Sunday afternoon young Miss Leola Ferguson entertained a group of friends at her home on East Santa Barbara avenue. Music was furnished by the charming Miss Frances Curry who played many of the latest popular numbers. Classical music was rendered by the Misses Anita and Kathryn Collins.

'You're Next' ANTIQUE ART CLUB'S FORMAL BEAUTIFUL AFFAIR This season has given us many interesting formalts, and to say the least, the one given Monday evening, Mar. 3rd, by the Antique Art Club, at the Savoy Ballroom, was indeed a marvelous affair. The Savoy Ballroom, which is in itself a decorative place, was made even more so for the splendid occasion. Everything, from the cloth of gold on the steps leading to the balcony, to the silver leafs which made up a good deal of the decorations, was letter perfect. Paul Howard's Blackbirds furnished the music, and it is needless to say that they gave their usual brand of syncopated jazz. Every woman present was superbly gowned, special attention being called to the gowns of the members, who appeared in the season's latest. They all looked dazzlingly beautiful. The officers and members of the club are: President Della Macklin Norton; Vice-Pres. Winifred McCoy; Sec'y Alice Patterson; Treasurer, Lela Walsh; Business Manager, Gladys Neal; Reporter, Jewell Pavageau, and Sopora McLaughlin, Evelyn Wallace, Iva Culpepper, Sara Patterson, Willie James, and Ursula Hirschwitz.

Adams Street. Eddie's birthday occurred very recently. Mr. Nat Jones really got away on the piano, playing the latest dance hits. Nat really pounds a wicked key. Mr. Charles Williams Louis Cole sang the latest in song hits, was there with his banjo. While the guests hollered for more, Very delicious refreshments were served during the evening and everyone had a swell time. May you have more birthdays, Eddie. * * * * * * This question still remains unanswered—"What was Thurman Gosey doing on Sunday, February 23rd, at about 6:15?" Send an air mail all ye who have answers. Oh these Hardon boys! How they do break into print. But the fact remains that James's seems very loness and lost without the petite little Miss Laura Murry, and Reggie gets a gang of letters from Chicago, and according to gossip has ideas, martimonially, toward someone in the "windy city". Hey, he! LABORIMUS CLUB - NEWS Members of the Laborimus Club, formerly known as the St. Agnes Guilf of the Episcopal Church, entertained with a Pre-Lenten dance at the Masonic Hall, 50th and Central Avenue, Friday 28th. Music by W. R. Rousseau and band. Refreshments were served during the evening. The meaning of "Laborimus" is "let us work," and the girls are planning many interesting things for the near future, especially a tea in March. Miss Mabel Kennard is Supervisor. * * * * * * Miss Oca Dumas, that very likable young person, is very fond of "tailors" but especially one Taylor. * * * * * * Miss Clyde Welsh, member of the Omega Gamma Rho Chapter of the Y. W. C. A., 12th Street Branch, is finding her work at the General Hospital, where she is in training, very interesting. We wish Clyde much success. The Omega Gamma Rho held their usual meeting Thursday, February 28 at the 12th Street Branch of the "Y". Meeting called to order by the Vice-President, Miss Anna Collier. The earlier portion of the meeting was devoted to business, and th elatter part of the meeting to a musical program, arranged by the Chairman of the Program Committee, Miss Dorothy O'Neal. Appearing on the program was Miss Elizabeth Jones, who played several of the latest song hits on her uke, and also sang. Mr. Charles Williams also rendered solos, accompanied by Miss Jones. Judging by the noise Luke Rosser makes, his shoes must come from Holland. He can make more racket than five men, but he certainly has the goods. If a party needs pepping, call for Luke; if we need a cheer leader, call for Luke; and if we need an entertainer, call for Luke. That boy is always full of spirits—high spirits that is. "COMING OUT" PARTY GIVEN AT LAVADA BALLROOM Mrs. Hurst Henry is hostess to many guests at the LaVada Ballroom, February 28th, the occasion being the debut of her charming daughter, Melvina Hurst.

E. church, corner of 18th and Naomi, "Modern Child's Wedding," presented by Mrs. Gertrude Sadler Gresham, and her 34 children, was one of the greatest affairs of its kind, ever witnessed by the people of Los Angeles.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE One Year .....$2.00 Six Months .....$1.25 Three Months .....$..75 Per Copy .....$..05 We have thirteen colored officers. These boys have really proven their efficiency over a period of eight years. As a reward for this efficiency, (with two exceptions) they have finally been planted one at a time along Alameda Street, the entire number, with mentioned exceptions is there one to be found. The whole affair is a disgrace, an insult, an injustice not only to these officers, but every citizen of Los Angeles. The time has arrived when a colored police officer cares to assert himself, dares to discuss his seniority dares to be a man. How long this condition will prevail is dependent upon how long the citizenry is going to continue casting their vote and thereby electing cowards to office. Officials whose back bone has had the lime extracted, men who lack ability through fear of public criticism to give their colored officers a square deal. The Police Dept. calls for trained men, fearless in the face of duty that at times exposes them to death. They ask no favors but are at least entitled to a reasonable beak. Folks, whenever you can speak for the minor, they themselves dare not open their mouths much less complain. *** We use to have two annual events along the line of amusements that where beyond a doubt exceptional public drawing cards. One was the ladies minstrels fostered by Mrs. Lauretta Butler, who has given her service, time, and talent in the stage training of our youth, has not received the appreciation that she should have, from the parents. They began to demand money, claiming their child was the show, when in reality many owed their training to Mrs. Butler. Sufficie to say such attitudes has caused Mrs. Butler to cease in her efforts to help Negro youth, and the public has lost two annual treats, and the participants the much needed service of two highly trained specialists. The term farm is always generally meant to emply a large chunk of BLODGET If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened tillable land. We met the other day an old friend of whom we inquires his occupation. Well says he 'I'm still operating a fish farm,' and so he is. He possess one of the most unique things imaginable. His name is Leake and his fish farm is at Watts. He grows and transports annually hundreds of penns, catfish and bass, in addition to making frogs for the market, that measure ordinary 14 inches long. When you have time go down to Watts and visit Leaks Fish Farm. Its a treat and worth ones while to hear from the lips of a Negro what three acres and 500 minnows can produce under water cultivation. --- Speaking of chain stores strange things happen. Preceeding chain stores we had circulated in our midsts endless prayers or chain prayers and the offerings of Ethiopia being religiously inclined immediately took up the business of using Uncle Sam's mail to promote its success the reward of which was helping the Masters cause. Our synthetic American brother took a slant at the business side of the Negroes profitless proposition and supplanted the prayer with shirts, ties, sox, collars and now the capitalistic octopus has started chain stores, at the expense of the little business man. --- The seperate school controversy is waxing hotter each day of our Lord and Master. Interested folks whose education will not permit them calling right out in the open each other liars, politely accuse each other verbally of not confirming their accusation to what Websters Unabridged terms de rufus. Of course since nothing can be done about the thinking side, it bites itself down to what Uncle Ertrum said in reply to the lawyer who hotly asked him on the witness stand "Do you mean to call me a liar." No, sir. Iaint calling youse a liar but to tell the truth I strongly speak you of being one. In the mean time the question is still debatable. Did he or did he not. *** "Incidentally one must have some respect for the voracity of several witness, said old man gossip to which A Deacon replied, ooes you mean to doubt de aracity of our pastor? Order order please remember you are in the city limits. Golden state held its annual meeting last Monday and brought history to past. Those not present missed a real treat. The revocation of the permit of the Liberty Dance was no great surprise to those hearing the testimony presented to the police commission by prosecution, witness, namely & mother, daughter and police sargeant. However we do not agree altogether with the sargeants based evidence as to occurrences there. I'm satisfied that what the Philipine is doing in this country to degrade morals pales into signiture when compared to the white man's exploitations of the Philippines islands, along all lines from associating with their women to legislating measures controlling their business. Folks who live in glass houses should not throw stones even if the rock is pitched by one of their kind in a police uniform. Folks who live on E. 41st Street were almost caught napping last Tuesday when the ettort to plant a night club right in their very midst in the guise of a dime and dance restaurant was re-submitted. The presence of residences at the hearing apparently cause those seeking same to cover up and seek shelter temporarily by having the matter twice laid over, in belated hope that the tolls might be caught napping and favorable vote taken. SAN DIEGO SECTION Many out-of-town visitors were attracted to our beautiful Bay City during the past week; among theme were Mr. and Mrs. Carl Smith of Los Angeles, week-end guests of Mrs. Marguerite Chance, proprietress of the popular and well known "Our Dairy Lunch."

Quite a large crowd attended. A new ladies auxiliary group of the N. A. A. C. P. was formed at the home of Mrs. Parker last Tuesday afternoon. This group is to be known as the "Regional Directress." Mrs. Parker was selected Chairman and Mrs. U. S. Griggs, secretary. The work to be taken up by the members is quite active and will consist mostly of research. The first plan for the month is to take up the local school system—the colored students' reaction to same—and per centage of the colored students' scholastic average. The Night Hawks Orchestra Danee at the Community Center, Saturday night was a very pleasant affair. The Five Hundred Club was entertained at the home of Mrs. Dimple Wooden, 3024 Greely Ave., Saturday night.

Jail doors that clanged on Los Angeles prisoners more than half a century ago, and which have been buried in partition walls thirty-five years were opened recently when Capt. Peoples of the Sheriff's office and Policeman Ray Cottle of the Los Angeles Department, who wears Badge No. 1, battered down masonry and exposed the ancient iron bars of Los Angeles' first city jail, at 211 West Second Street. The Miller Desk and Safe Co., at 211 W. 2nd St., whose expansion program recently caused the tearing down of walls some 3 feet thick, made the showing of the old bastile doors, a feature of the opening of their new steel office equipment addition recently. According to officer Cottle, the jail was erected about fifty three years ago, and had been closed for about thirty-five years. He remembers vividly many of the stirring events connected with the early history of the jail. "I booked two men for murder right at this spot", he said, moving over tothe middle of the room. "The old jail was in the back and the office was here. I booked a policeman here for murder after he had killed his woe and mother and his father in law. He was hanged." Officer Cottle has been seen on the force forty years and six months, he said, and is the oldest man in the department. The criminals of the old days were different, he declared. If they had it in for you they fought it out, and did not shoot you in the back, or take you for a ride. Three steel doors were found imbedded in the walls. The cells had been taken out, but standing in front of the middle cell was known as the "cooler", and it was just that. Pipes led across the top of the cell and when a person was put in and did not shut up, the water was turned on and he was given a free bath. line of Filing Equipment for Legal Size. Used Rugs.

The presence o' the old cell dools was discovered when workmen started tearing down walls at the rear of the Miller De sk & Safe Co. The jail doors are still hanging and have drown hundreds of people to inspect them. They are open for inspection at all times. 3700 Central Ave. HUmbolt 5476 MARCH 7th. 14th, 21st, 28th S. A.

REPORT OF PRESIDENT OF vveuveN SLALE INSURANCE COMPANY (Continued From Page One) Company to make the greatest com- pany operates by black people in America. We proudly state that no company operated in this country is opgrated more scientifically than the Golden State, and from the Life pro- duction reports irom the older com- panies, in comparison- with our size. age and territory, our Life agents are not, outranked by any of the bigger companies. So we have only to be proud, if we will but press onward and forward. An insurance company to be regard ed financially sound under the insur- ance laws shoula estimate liberally yhat its obligations are tobe in the ihture and set aside, from its funds, shifficient sums to mect, these obliga: tions as they mature. This is exact- iene the Golden State does. | This is an age of advancement. A few years ago men travelled in ox carts. Today they travel in autos and airplaines. If a man gets sick he Sends for the best trained and cxperienced paysician. Surely he would not send for 1 shoemaker to make a diagnosis of his illness. When his automobllc gets out of fix he aoes not seek a tail- or, So you sce, the trend of the times is toward specialization... When you need insurance, you sce the insurance agent. That is why we train our agents so when they go to prdspects they know what they are about—fully capable to give competent advice and service to the insuring pablic as a specialist in his line. ‘The success of any company as above stated, depends upon an intelii- gent staff of agents wisely idrected by Competent officers supported by # loy- al board of directors. WHAT OF THE FUTURE? This question confronts every poliey- holder, Tn this connection, you cannot think of the ‘successful future of the Golden State without thinking at the same time of the oportunity for the success of your children. And after all. cear members, we can. think only of the future, for the past is dead; the present is passing. What the race has done in the past forms but a foundation for future growth and so with our company. * It is our duty'as members therefore, not to be satisfied with our past suc- cess only; there is no such thing as standing still, We must go forward or backward. Now as to whether we go forward or backward depends up- us as members. Ii we go. forward, gridit tevon account of cooverstion Specialization, concentration aud team. k effort.” Co-operation from our rs has increased our income $34,131.00'in 1925 to $188,846.77 in_ 1929, Our ‘outlook is not backward but forward; forward to a future that hoids treasiires of success, which we may reach only by co-operation, building goodwill and doing team work. Ever holding the interest. of the the Company first, Iam, Yours for a greater Golden State, Wm. NICKERSON. [R.

P. E. REED THRILLS ZION FOLLOWERS P. E. REED THRILLS ZION FOLLOWERS On February 2nd, the first Sunday a large crowd at Zion was thrilled by the wonderful message of the Presiding Elder, Rev. G. W. Reed. Rev Reed's sermons are always spontaneous and ring with true sincerity. He administered the Lord's Supper with his usual impressiveness. There were three additions to the Church. Rev Reed filled the pulpit in the evening and preached to an appreciative audience. The joint Revival between the First Church of Christ, Holiness, and the A. M. E. Zion Church was a great success. Those who started in with the services on the evening of the 4th were unable to stay away and followed the meetings to the finish. On the evening of the 18th, the last night, enthusiasm was still at its height. Rev Moore and Bishop Washington have demonstrated the wondrous co-operation which can exist between Christians of any denomination. The labors of these two ministers were rewarded with a large number of converts and new members, not to speak of the blessings received by the old members. The outstanding feature of the services on February 10th was the beautiful solo rendered by Mrs. Bertha Sprull. Mrs. Sprull is one of our own and never fails to please. On the morning of February 23rd, Zion had as its visitors the Women's Auxiliary of Stauon Post, G. A. R. There was true spirit and earnestness in Rev. Moore's sermon. A large United States flag was presented to the church at the close of the sermon by the Women's Auxiliary. Bishop J. W. Martin accepted the flag on behalf of the Church in an appropriate speech. Will.of Late Rev. Redd Admitted to Probate The much talked of Last Will and Testament of Reverend Albert Red was admitted to Probate in Department Two of the Superior Court on the 21 day of February 1930. Over the objections of Attorney Curtis Taylor, counsel of Mrs. Katie Red, the widow, and Attorney Graf, (white) counsel for Mr. Essex Cook, grafted on the decease, Judge Stevens held the will valid and no proof of undue influence had been shown. Mr. Beverly T. Brown, prominent business man, beneficiary of the Will represented by Attorney Lewis K. Beeks, was also appointed executor of the estate according to the terms of the Will. HELP ONE ANOTHER HELP ONE ANOTHER Well. How? To dam everybody! I would answer not! What are you going to do then? I would say help one another. You tell me how to help one another, and I shall take a lesson from you. First help yourself. How can you help yourself with nothing to help with? I would say first seek for something. What are you going to seek for? Help. Tell me how. There are five classes of folk we know, and the individual who has the most power, and best standing should help the little fellow climb upward. How? Will something to eat help? In some places, I do not wonder that the little fellow stays angry all the time. Well how? Have you ever stopped to think how much a dog will love you when you pat him just a little on the head. Take a stick and hit him, what will he do? Sometimes he will bite, sometimes he will run. I do not understand you, can you understand yourself? Yes, what about it? I will speak for myself. I liked to be helped in every way that is good. Oh yes, that is what the little fellow wants. He wants true friendship, encouragement, and perfect love. Did God have perfect love? Yes, and his love casts out all fear. He did not choose any special people to love. He decided that as He had made all. He would love all alike. God left it to the individual to work out his own soul salvation. To my mind I prefer God, and His Son, Jesus, as my foundation. Miss M. M. VINCENT, Author Pasadena Section By CAROL ECHOLS INTER RACIAL FORUM INTER-HACIAL FORUM The Pasadena Inter-Racial Forum held in the lecture room of the Public Library Sunday afternoon, enjoyed a splendid thought-provoking speech by Dr. William Prosser of Pittsburgh, Pa. a doctor of philosophy and a Methdist minister. His subject was "World Unity and How to Realize It. A few of the points made by the Doctor are as follows: (1) We shall not solve the racial problem until we solve the human problem. He earnestly and clearly backed up his views with Scriptural quotations. (2) The Kingdom of God on earth is a state of affairs where every man will receive just compensation for his services rendered. (3) Poverty will be absent from society. (4) Disease will be banished. (5) Every man will serve God under his own vine and fig, spirituality will be quite universal, making useless the need of churches and ministers. (6) Ministers should not be paid salaries, then probably they would speak the truth and espouse the cause of the underdog without fearing the loss of their salary. (7) The Kingdom of God is an institution of Justice. (9) It is a cosmopolitan kingdom. The many gates that lead to the four directions are for the admission of the races of the world." Our comment: The talk was good, though the speaker was hampered by a lack of time by numerous misunderstandings that were voiced in the audience. His doctrine was Biblical and spiritual, though not the least bit orthodox or church. Altogether, the message savored of Plato's "Republic," or Sir Thomas Moore's "Utopia" only that Christian principles were said to be the guiding force in the Kingdom. The attendance was the largest since the meetings have been functioning. Several machine loads of people, visited from Los Angeles. We are indeed encouraged to note the interest shown by persons in the surrounding cities as well as local dwellers. Rey, T. L. Lawson, pastor of the Lincoln avenue Baptist church has just undergone an operation at the General Hospital. The pastor has been seriously ill for several months; doctors say that he will show rapid improvement since his operation. Mrs. Allan, mother of Miss Ruby W. hinton, is ill. Mrs. J. W.

SCOTT METHODISTS OFFERED CONGRATULATIONS HERE Members of Scott Methodist church, formerly Scott chapel, were felled last night by members of other churches of the city upon the occasion of dedicating Buckner Hall, the social hall of the new edifice, 55 Mary street. Women of the church served a delicous turkey dinner to a large crowd, after which a short program was given, presided over by the popular pastor, Rev. B. J. Jordan. Dr. Walter C. Buckner, superintendent of Methodist churches of the Pasadena district for whom this hall is named, was one of the speakers of the evening and modestly denied being worthy of the honor of having the hall named for him but thanked them for the honor. Dr. Merle N. Smith, pastor of First church, was introduced and spoke feelingly of the fine spirit of the members in making the progress they have on their building venture. Praises World Here The principal speaker was Dr. A. P. Shaw, pastor of Wesley Methodist church, Los Angeles, who paid a tribute to Methodism in Pasadena for the able assistance given Scott church in its building program. He spoke of the support by what is known as the Pasadena Methodist Council of which Dr. Buckner is chairman, of the aid by First church and all the other churches, and cautioned Scott church members that their responsibilities to the race and the community had been increased, urging them to continue to prove worthy. Dr. Shaw, Dr. Ecknifer and Dr. Smith inued Rev, Mr. Jordan for his courage and ability in carrying forward this project in the face of many discounts. Guestr Thanked Pastor Jordan called on a number of honored guests present, including A. B. Stevens, J. M. Hartley and Jos. Taggart, three laymen who have helped most liberally with time and money, and Archieff S. M. Marston for church plans, and others. Brief talks were made by Mrs. Annie Roberts, president of the Ladies Aid which furnished the dinner last night, Mrs. G. H. Holland, president of the Endeavor club, made up of women of various churches. Special music for the evening was furnished by Aaron Jordan, director of music at Wesley church, Los Angeles, and a brother of the pastor here.

TEMPLE Specializing in Women's Diseases and Obstetrics NOTE: Please address all queries concerning this column to Dr. Dr. Ruth J. Temple, 803 E. 32nd St. HU, 3419 or- VA, 1221 (Continued from Last Issue) BEFORE THE BABY COMES Before the baby comes it is essential that the mohter has: 1. Early consultation with a well-trained physician, complete physical examination, including pelvic measurements and frequent examinations of the urine. 2. Nourishing diet, with plenty of milk. 3. Regulation of excessive gain in weight by frequent weighing and by curtailing starch and sugar in diet. 4. Abundance of liquids, especially water. 5. Regulation of constipation, by food if possible. 6. Daily bath to increase elimination by the skin. 7. Attention to teeth. 8. Sufficient rest and sleep. 9. Work and exercise moderated to prevent fatigue! 10. Proper clothing and the possibility of recreation. 11. Outdoor airing daily and free ventilation of the bedroom. TRAINED ATTENDANCE DCR TRAINED ATTENDANCE DUR ING CONFINEMENT The skilled assistance necessary to make confinement safe demands a speci- cal training and is indeed a special branch of surgery. The best surgeon is none too good if one is suffering from appendicitis or a broken leg. A trained veterinarian is always called in for valuable farm stock. Do not the life and future health of a wife and child warrant the best medical and nursing skill available? AFTER THE BABY COMES The mother should rest in bed at least one week, and should not resume full household duties for at least one month after confinement. She needs this period of rest to heal and recuperate; to prevent hemorrhage; and to produce milk for the baby. The energy of the mother's food must not be used in up hard manual labor instead of going into breast milk for the baby. Any work by the mother sufficient to produce fatigue might delay the child's normal development. Pregnancy is not a disease—it is only health under a strain. Learn how to ease the strain. When every expectant mother is properly cared for at home and when every expectant mother has skilled supervision and attention during pregnancy, confinement and the lying-in period, Maternity Will Be Safe. The protection of maternity can no longer be evaded. This wastage of of life at birth should be stopped for not only is every infant a potential citizen, but the same conditions which account for half our infant deaths are impairing the health and vitality of those babies who survive. It is not those who die but those who live that should now be considered. MATERNAL MORTALITY Few of us realize that child-bearing at present, is dangerous as far as life is concerned. In 1916 we lost in the United States at least 16,000 women from all causes connected with child-bearing, and practically all these deaths were preventable. Child-bed fever is the most frequent cause of death among child-bearing women, and is from womb infection, largely due to the introducing of infection on the hands of the attendant at the time of child-birth. Jno. 14:26. And He manifests but one departed friend to us, Jesus Christ. Jno. 16:14. Eph. 5:30:32. Jno. 15:14. Heb. 2:11 12. No. 7—After the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He appears to the disciples—Thomas not present. He breathed on them and said unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost. John 20:22 No. 8-For the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities for we know not what to pray for as we ought; but the Spirit Himself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Rom. 8:26. No. 9—Quench not the Spirit. 1 Thes. 5:19. Be filled with the Spirit, Eph. 5:18. Grieve not the Holy Spirit, Eph. 4:30. Live in the Spirit, Gal. 5:25. Walk in the Spirit, Gal. 5:16. No. 10—Yes. When God sent his Son into the world to seek and save the lost there were many who did not receive him as the Saviour but a many as received him to them he gave power to become the Sons of God, even to them who would be believe on his name. Therefore to become a child of God. We must receive his Son, Jesus, and be born again, that will make you a member of the Church that Jesus built. John 1:12-13, 3:1-6, 1 Cor. 4:15, 1 Peter 1:23, 2:2, 1 John 1:13, 3:9, 4:7, 5:1, 4:18. Matt. 16:18. All of these Scriptures teach a new birth is necessary in becoming a member of Jesus' Church. It was surely between these two dates A. D. 32 and 33 that the church that Jesus built was founded. See Acts 2:42-47, 4:31, 37. Compiled By W. H. Y O U N G 11308 Alabama St. So.

Frank Moran was appoint- ed as chiei boxing inspector to replace Bill Bomb nearly two years ago. and in spite of the many critical angles that develop. the many decisions to be rendered und varied controversies to ie settled, he has fillea his post so creditably that he numbers his friends by hosts and no other inspector in this country could have improved on his MR.

He was one of the great heavyweight con- tenders during the days when Jack Johnson was Heaveweight champion of the world, ard was easily defencing his title against allycomers. FRANK FOUGHT as many as six- teen battles in one year during this time which was preceding and follow- ing the outbreak of the world’s war in 1914. Most of these dangerous op- ponents he defeated in gruelling 20: round battles which were the order ia those heetic days.

The string of wins piled up by Eddie, since his ar- rival in the local fistic. centre, has built him up a ioilowing behind him- self that is almost as great as his popular rival Goldie Hess has in less than a year, risen from small spots on Si Saenz’s weekly caras at Ocean Park to a headliner there. His popu- larity increasing so rapidly there that Olympic fans craved to sex him in ac- tion. He was started in there witha bang and has been one of the big club's main drawing cards ever since. Mack's best recent win and one of his most spectacular battles was with Maurice Holtzer. the French flash, which took place two weeks ago. This hout was so close that many of the fans thought Maurice deserved the nod. but the bout proved that Eddie could hold his own against any style or class of opposition.

Neither he nor Jack were paid off after this fight which occurred just 2 month before the World War, but they are ready to settle now and he will get ‘over $15000 as his wages with accrued interest. Needless to say he will be greatly missed for regardless ‘of the fact that he was a terrific fighter, there is no kinder hearted man in the world when it came to dealing with strug- gling preliminary boys or fighter of clubs that deserved a “break.” With the colored fighter or colored manager he has been absolutely fair, impartial, and unprejudiced, and it is greatly through, his influence; and ex- ample, that the colored boys’ are posi- tively getting their share of the bouts at most all ‘of the club in proportion to the colored population. oft!® to be hoped the new commiss- ioher and the new inspector (im case Frank does not return) will be equal- ly as fair; if so it will mean much for ‘he eed of tbh eane.

Fighting and seems to be the order of the day. Senator (Nate the Negro Heath) is permitted to run wild, apparently the only persons at peace with the world are ex-President Coolidge and his wife, and Dr. Baker, who claims he has at last compared the fruit fly in the State of Florida. Plans have at last been entirely completed to organize the Dining Car Employees' Credit Union, and notice are already in the mall to members of the Dining Car Cooks and Waiters Union. Local No. 582 requesting their presence at a series of meetings, in which the following important questions, were explained. What is a Credit Union? How Does it Operate? How Will it Benefit Me? The last or these meetings were held on March 5th, and another series will be held later on this month. In a letter received by Mr. Johnson, secretary of Local No. 1692 he was informed by the extension board of his appointment as Superintendent for the Western District. Mr. Johnson has worked hard to perfect and put in operation a credit union for his local seeing the advantages of such an organization over a year ago. Now that the plans have been completed, a program has been formulated to launch a busy campaign in the interest of the movement. What should be particularly interesting to railroad men, in the fact that a recent decision has been made to enlist the membership of sleeping car employees thus forming a National Association of Dining and Sleeping Car Employees Credit Union. Mr. C. Johnson spoke in the interest of the Credit Union last week before the National Dining Car Association, touching on the subject of forming the Dining and Sleeping Car employees; National Association. Mr. J. P. Durden is the president of the National Association, and also made a short talk. The meeting was held at 868 East Jefferson street, and was attended by a large crowd. JOHN C. WILLIAMS APPPOINTED FIELD AGENT- Mr. John C. Williams, popular Southern Pacific waiter, was appointed field agent for the D. C. & W. Union last week. Mr. Williams is a very brilliant young man with the spirit of increased membership constantly before him as his goal. He is wide awake at all times; alert and capable. The organization should be commended in selection of so worthy and efficient a man as Mr. J. C. Williams. DINING CAR COOKS AND WAITERS CELEBRATE NEW FIXTURES IN CLUB-MRS. JAMES CLARK HAS TEA IN HONOR OF THE EVENT. The dining car cooks and waiters celebrated over their new fixtures recently acquired at their headquarters at a tea given by Mrs. James Clark, who acted as hostess. The affair was attended by many railroad men and their wives. Over a thousand dollars was invested in new furnishings, making the club house one of the most beautiful places to meet in on the east side. The club is located at 1150 East 12th street. Local clubs are invited to use the club for their meetings and social affairs, and can do so by making arrangements with Mr. C. Johnson, who can be found at his office in the club house around noon. One club has already made reservations and will give a dinner during the coming week. The public is invited to inspect the club at any time. JOHNSON ON JOB FOR In an interview with Mr. Clarence Jobson, wide-awake secretary of the Waiters and Cookers Union, it was learned that he is making every effort to use that members of his local get a square deal in connection with the recent medical examinations being held by the Southern Pacific. If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened I have been inured by my able assistant, M. B. L. Armand, then Porter C. H. Larry has been selected to handle the ex-professional party to Globe, Arizona where Mr. Coolidge will endeavor to indicate the great dam recently constructed in that vicinity. Mr. Larry is capable of the job, having had quite a little experience in handling private cars while working in the East. At present he is a member of the quick crew operating on the Lake. 1. CARTER NO. 1. AWAITS GALL TO GOVERNMENT HOSPITAL J. Carter No. 1, who has been sick for some time suffering from an alliment of the throat, is now on the waiting list of the U. S. Government patients to get in the hospital at San Diego. Carter is an anservice man and is entitled to medical treatment from Ucile Sam. He has made many friends in this District who are all pulling for his speedy recovery. Mr. Carter endowed for quite a while to gain entrance at Sawtelle, but this institution has all they can take care of; some of the patients even sleeping in tents. C. GRAIN It is indeed regrettable that the Clatter is forced to speak of the actions of some of the men in our profession; for common decency and self-respect should teach them the laws of propriety. At a very sad affair which was held recently at Conner & Johnson's, a certain porter went so far as to forget that he was the center of attraction in a time of grief. The Clatter sincerely-hopes that this porter will wake-up and get next to himself, and be the man and gentleman that we know he can be when he wants to. There are places for all things, and times for all moods, but such actions as those which transpired on this particular occasion were all uncalled for and only serve to cast a bad reflection upon those of the sleeping car profession. Just a Pal to all the Porters Jolly, happy, full of glee: Just an humble public servant Running on the Old S. P. Drummers, salesmen, train conductors Men from every walk of life, Fused and lingered in their travels As they watched his fading light. As his life was hovering lightly Ebbing fast its precious blood Came a young man voluntarily With a cup of his own blood. But the Lord above was calling To a soul bound down on earth And He gently took him from us To his place around the hearth. Good-bye, Blackstone! came the whisper Heard from every Porter's lips For they knew the Lord would guide him C. SMITH AND J. SPRINGFIELD ROB PAUL TO PAY PETER— Some time ago (Sleepy) Smith and J. Springfield started for the west- side on Smith's gas wagon. As they approached the vicinity of Hill and Jefferson, they collided with a white driver and did quite a little damage. "Sleepy" Smith was driving. After some wrangling the boys compromised for the sum of two dollars. Upon returning to the eastside, "Sleepy" Smith turned the wheel over to Springfield, and he in turn had a coll- lision with a Mexican on Central avenue. Being in his own territory he hopped out or the car and drove a bargain with the Mexican to stand the damages done to Smith's car. This was done for two dollars, the same price they had to put out on Jefferson and Hill. That's either prosteering or robbing Paul to pay Peter. W. J. LOGAN LEAVES ON BONE DRY TRIP- W. J. Logan left these parts for the old country (Atlanta Georgia) on a cotton special. There will be no change of any prohibition agents making a mark on this trip. J. Ponder, the Georgia Peach, almost cried when he bid Logan good-bye. Atlanta being the "Georgia Peach" home. He sent his regards to every "peck" down there and told Logan to be sure and go by and see "Mr. Billy" and the mules! C. SMITH PLANS TRIP TO NEW QRLEANS... C. Smith No. 2, has been busy for the past month packing his things in preparation for a trip to New Orleans to visit his daughter. He has arranged to change lines with S. Harris of the New Orleans District, who in at the present time operating in Line 347. It is thought that Smith will try and bring back another wife with him. If he is successful it will be No. 5. It takes a lot of women for that boy. MANDLE WILLIAM R. HEARST PARTY C. G. Scott. B. Ollison and S. O. Thompson got a break last week, and took the internship party up to San Louis Ohlson. All persons who have charge of these Heart parties are allowed their meals at San Louis free of charge while waiting for the party to return from Heart's reach, but as in a great many instances, some of the parties have abused the privilege and put in a bill of excessive proportions. It got so bad that the manager stopped the privilege for sometime. Mrs. Frank Jasper wife of Porter F. Jasper and a maid in the employee of the Pullman Company acted as hostess last week offer the regular monthly meeting of the Association. Delicious refreshments were served by the hostess which made the meeting a gallant affair. As a result of this new feature of the Association, it is expected that a largerer attendance will be on hand at future meetings. A San Francisco porter by the name of C. R. Porton was put off of the Clark S. P. train. The Lark recently at Watsonville he Conductor Brise. His work was finished at the time the train arrived at this station, otherwise it might not have occurred. The reason for his decision was not learned by my assistant; however, we hope to find out later. PASSENGER COMPLAINS ON PICKWICK STAGE BENCHS— A regular Pullman car patron voiced his erievement to Porter D. P. Duncan last week in regard to travel on the Pickwick sleeping car busses. He claims he was as tired after his supposed night's rest, as when he first went to bed. The beds are nothing more than a plank and a thin mattress and are exceedingly narrow. If you turn over you find yourself on the floor and if you don't turn over, you feel like h——. Of course the Clatter feels that this passenger is stretching the point a little; but that's his story, and we will have to stick to it. CHICAGO NORTHERN PORTER MARRIES OAKLAND GIRL— Forter A. Briggs, recent transfer from the Chicago Northern District to San Francisco, has been in the service 22 years. Briggs married an Oakland girl and decided to make his home in this neck of the woods where he car see and enjoy the sunshine all the year around. He says he has fought the snow and ice for last time; California will be his home for the balance of his days. H. E. WASHINGTON CALLED BIG BERTHA— H. E. Washington has been nicknamed (Big Bertha). Mr. Washington has always been known for his ardent work and help to the sick. He has always been appointed on every sick committee in the District. The porters have confidence in his ability and know that it is important to him he will take care of it in an efficient manner. His service to the Benevolent Association has been invaluable. A large crowd of Filipinos were down to the Santa Fe depot last Thursday to greet their representative on his return from Washington, D.C., where he had a conference with President Hoover in the interest of his countrymen. A brass band of 25 pieces played native strains as the crack Santa Fe "Chief" rolled up to the station. Very tall and exceptionally good looking with his wife, who is also very beautiful, the representative posed for pictures for the newspapers while 500 of his subjects looked on with glee. White people who gathered around the Filipino band when it was playing, forgot all about the recent uprisings in their praise of the music. They say that music hath charms. AUGU CAILENTE DERBY GIVES PORTER WORK— It is an ill wind that blows no good, so said the Pullman Porters operating line 28 from Los Angeles to the border or the city of San Diego, which is the means to getting to the border. Last Friday 5-car special of moving picture notables with plenty of loose change to spend, left on the Santa Fe for the border town to take in the Auga Caliente derby. The train was taken across the border and parked for the occupants use for a period of three days. All of the porters got well and had an opportunity to witness the races. This train returned to Los Angeles Monday morning. Auga Caliente is destined in the very near future to give. the porters as good a break as the famous, Kentucky derby does back east. Porters on the extra board in Los Angeles are asleep to the fact that the most of this extra gravey is going to Chicago East porters. It is a rare occasion that an extra porter of the Los Angeles District gets in on any of this business to the border retreat. Although it is rightfully theirs, it has been the practice and the custom of the platform men at the Santa Fe to use layover porters of the Chicago Eastern District for service to the border. This practice will continue as long as there is no protest against it. The writer would sure like to see the day that a Los Angeles porter could go into Chicago Eastern District under the supervision of Mr. Ruddy and get a car to the Kentucky derby! Yes, try and do it. It's up to the extra porters to fight for what rightfully belongs to them. It is far from a fair break to let Chicago East get the gravey that belongs to you. If you like the Railroad Clatter, write me a letter to that effect. Do the same thing if you do not like it. Address, C. L. Upton, 21190 30th St. E'VRY TUB MUST STAND Some porters are always talking out of place and at the wrong time, if you do not know what to say, and the right time to say it in, say nothing. You will find it the best policy. Sometimes what you do say will eventually work a hardship on you and others. Madame Chamberlain, Pullman Inspector, handed L. G. Green a package not long ago. She sees everything. Better watch your step Green. The Bankers' Special will be held in New Orleans this year. The bankers will miss John Bush, who always was assigned on this prize special. The writer and the Railroad Clatter wishes to thank Mr. H. E. Washington for the nice letter of comment he wrote on this column. Ell Arnaud had a private party of one lady recently from Santa Barbara to Del Monte. She chartered the entire car for herself! Please advise the writer what Eddie Meyers is carrying in the brief case. Is it Mexican coins which he made on that special? They is going to be some humping done if the parlor car is taken off of the Santa Barbera run, as is rumored by the Baker Heater Committee. The man that has the least to say now days is J. Prayer. C. A. Glover is still running wild. How come? Good men bucking the extra board, and pilkers operating in regular line! H. W. Weeks and L. A. Cuffin were seen with their heads together last week. Better watch your step Weeks! now. E. Jones No. 2. makes the grocery store at 42nd and Hooper his head- quarters. You know the ladies have to have their grocery. W. A. Clark is apparently satisfied. We do not hear him crying any more. S. H. Burnett looks as if he is good for 20 years longer. Eddie Woods is back at work after suffering from a sprained wrist. We did not know that A. Graves and E. E. Meyers were former soldiers of the Mexican army! A good combination in Fresno—H. Knight (Week Back) Duberry and Dan Hood. Frank Butler, ex-railroad man, has some brief ideas and if successful will soon be heard from. Sidney Addison (waiter) residing on 43rd street had an awful scare last week when a fire which broke out across the street from his home threatened to spread to his own castle. The smile that won't come off—Bud Ambrose, Tod Lowry and J. Bell. (Amos) Franklin and Otto Johnson are now in training for their ten round bout. E A. Thomson deadheaded from Portland on 60. He celebrs he is laying it away for a rainy day. Porter Glasscow should watch his step while crossing the streets. The nine he smokes makes too much fog. Safety first! By White (waiter) on the S. P. Daylight, is the proud father of a 10-pound boy. James Davis (waiter) laid off after his trip to Mexico. We wonder if these S. P. "Dicks" that hang around the depot, turn in everything they take from the porters? SANTA FE RED CAPS— This boy Nash got a break last week when he had charge of a parlor car of movie stars to the races. What kind of a thing is that that Hawkins drives back and forth to work? They say that you cannot touch Jones on the head, but I know someone who touched his head, and they didn't touch it lightly either! Why does Normand Steward put some of his tips in his hat band when he goes home? Eddie Nash is still holding out hopes of returning to work for the Pullman Company. W. B.

Four Baseball Leagues Near Season's Close With a tie for first place existing in one municipal baseball league, and a close race for the championship in two others, four of the leagues sponsored by the municipal sports division of the Playground and Recreation Department were nearing the end of their season last week with exciting finishes promised. In the Los Angeles Winter League, afternoon division, the Los Angeles Gas and Electric baseballers were enjoying a commanding lead by reason of having won eleven out of the twelve games they have played. Sunday 40C Friday and Saturday A Great Outdoor Romance "THE This scrivener established a precedent sometime age of digging up undiscovered talent and revealing it to the limelight of the public like the uncut diamonds they are. Some girls and fallows who have never even been on a stage have more and finer talent than many who are. There are dozens of such embryo artists here but a few we present this week are: A Miss Melreese Slaughter, excellent pianist, appeared on KNX, KFQZ, KFI and Angelus Temple with Reese Dupree, baritone. Oliver Reeves (Big Six) though just a boy as yet, has a good little singing orchestra. He will be one of the country's big horn and drum men some day. Lavina Thomas is a good song and dance prospect. Pansy Speaks has the looks already; all she needs is the proper training for her much desired stage career. Viola Clay, sister of the well-known orchestra leader, Sonny Clay, is a pretty little slender Miss with natural dancing grace and ability. This in addition to a sweet disposition would advance her rapidly as a single dancing act. ACTORS RETURN As a new departure in the Negro's history in the movies fourteen colored players have returned from location off Mazlathan, Mexico, where water scenes of the "Sea Bat" were filmed. This is the largest group of Race players to ever go on location to a foreign country. Nathan Curry, veteran or silent films and one of the first to play an important role in the talks, reports that the trip was a revelation to all concerned. Headed by Harold Slickum Garrison, assistant to director Wesley Ruggles, the colored company consisted of Robert Frailer, Tia Juana; Curtis Neno, Sergt. James Anderson, Bill Smart, Wm. Wright, Roht, Hayes, A. Cunningham, Mrs. Reed and Doris Garrison.

If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened BY ART HAMILTON KAPPAS WIN FINAL GAME KAPPAS WIN FINAL GAME The Kappa Alpha Phi frat men came through the rye with a smile on their faces last Friday night, when they beat the boloney shooting Alphas to the tune of 26 to 33. It was a tight game all the way and the score on the final go around was see-sawing back and forth for the whole time o the last quarter. First it was the Alphas, with Slick Stocks, Paul Ford and Guinn Jones doing their stuff to shove their team in the lead. Then it was the Kappas, with Herman Hill that demon center, Al Brewer forward, Jeff Brown and Moose Ragland playing overhead basketball to take the old Casabame game and sew it up tighter than a clam. Those boys played jam-up basketball and no less. Slick Stocks, all sports man of Pasadena, formerly of Pasadena Junior College and now of the University of Southern California, made the most play of the game when he dribbled from under his basket, the whole length of the floor to score in one of the prettiest set-up shots we have seen in many a moon. That boy Slick was playing and he was fighting mad and still no less. Guinn Jones that long, tall, slender, center from the Crown City, played a sweetheart of a game at center for the Alpha men. Jones was right there in every play and he, scored plenty of points on short taps. SHIFTY FORWARD Paul Ford also of the Crown City, where pretty girls and great basketball players come from in there with all his might. Paul scored about half of his team's points with his dead eye shooting. And how that boy can loop those long, long shots. "There is no use whatsoever of waiting at the other end when Mr. Ford lets one go. It's all over then. ON THE SIDE LINES The Kappas were in as much evidence on the sidelines as they were in the game. Luke Wassom, big man when it comes to the Kappas frat was there, and was he feeling gay? That boy led cheers, yells, songs and whatnots, during the game and at the half. I think Luke thought he was the Medicine Man for the Blues that night. In fact all the Kapas were feeling tight like those. ALPHAS LOSE TWICE The Alphas came right back to the city of the Angels, Saturday night and took on the Hedonicas, in the last game of the first round of the "Y" league. The Pasadena men were without their star torward Slick Stocks and that bean pole of a center Guinn Jones, theretoore, you know the result. The high school boys took them to the cleaners. Paul Ford did not have his eye and the rest of the team just couldn't click. Alex Edwards of the Hedonicas was the big shot of the game. Alex is one of the best floor men in the city and he can go some. IMPERIALS WIN The Imperials came out of the fog they have been running around in and took the Y. M. D. team with ease. All I can say about them is it is about time. JEFF HIGH "Y" BREAKS OUT The Jefferson High School Hi-Y team took on some kind of a notion Tuesday morning, when they sneaked on the Hedonicas and took them before they knew what it was all about. The final score was 23 to 19 in favor of the Jeff Hi-Y team. Eddie Bartholemew was high point man, with 18 points to his credit. That boy Eudie is a sweetheart, when it comes to sinking that old casaba. He had his eye plenty Tuesday morning. Little Muss Morris played a great WILLIAM EDDIE ANDERSON BACK AND STOPS SHOW WEDNESDAY NIGHT; JOE TRENT WRITING MUSIC FOR NEW SHOW; TAP DANCING CONTEST SUNDAY NIGHT A full house will undoubtedly greet Roland Hayes, the world famous Negro tenor, who comes to the Philharmonic Auditorium, Saturday evening, for his only recital of the season in Los Angeles. Last year, the great artist gave but one recital in Los Angeles, and seats were sold on the stage, and hundreds of people were disappointed and turned away. Reports from the box office this season, show that there is an increasing interest in the concerts of Hayes. And the concert for Saturday night is being rapidly sold out. Hayes will sing a group of art songs for his concert here—ending with a group of the Negro spirituals, which he has made famous. Hayes, has arranged many of the spirituals himself, and they form a major part of his program. Hayes, is the one great artist whose voice has never been heard over the radio. The great singer has shown no interest and has held fast to his first statement that he will never broadcast. Fabulous sums have been offered the great singer by the big advertisers presenting radio programs. Hayes will not return to the coast for two years, as his tours for the next two seasons will take him to Europe and the East. EDDIE ANDERSON BACK WEDNESDAY NIGHT; MUSIC FOR NEW SH CONTEST SU Eddie Anderson the funnist man in seven states is back at the Apex and he is doing his stuff as he never did it before. Anderson has been off for a couple of weeks with bad eyes, but the old peepers are jam up now, says the comedian and he is runnig amuck. Eddie pairs up with Gus Jones and how these two boys can go. Eddie and Gus received no less than five encores. They could have worked all night, if time would have permitted. IVY ANDERSON SCORES A perfect picture of bronze beauty, Miss Ivy Anderson, the Ethel Waters of the Pacific Coast and the west was right there with all of her it and then some Wednesday night. Ivy did sev-game also. Handsome Ben Woods, Alex Edwards and Harold Lewis starred for the Hedonicas. TENNIS TOURNAMENT COMING All of the younger set are waiting until the 15th and 16th of this month when the California Eagle Tennis tournament will come off at Snyder Field. Joe Sides, popular young man about town and a aemon with the raquet has signed up. Frank Davis, the hot shot from Seattle has put his John Henry down for a place and they tell me folks that this Davis person can go. Walton Jones of the Galloping Don Juans has signed and Wal says there is no use having the play-offs because he is the best man already and no less. CABS MUtual 4141 She Knows all About Devils and Angels Although she is a co-producer of the Apex gorgeous floor shows and exponent of acrobatic and other thrillingly beautiful dances, Mildred Washington above is not of the type usually supposed to represent a chorus girl. Mildred does not drink or raise "whoopee" herself, but the pretty little artist spends her time between shows reading "Dante's Inferno," "Paradise Lost," "The Illiad," "Cicero's Orations," etc. Imagine? THE "Y" GYM BY ART HAMILTON The first half of the "Y" basketball league ended Saturday night, with the Galloping Don Juans and the Alphas in a tie for first place. The Alphas ran upon a surprise Saturday night, when the Hedonicas took them by the way of no harm. CK AND STOPS SHOW JOE TRENT WRITING SHOW; TAP DANCING NDAY NIGHT eral solo numbers and then took down the house with Mary Richards as her team mate in a song and dance skit. Little Miss Richards is no slouch herself and she can go some. She is the only race toe dancer on the Pacific Coast. MILDRED WASHINGTON Miss Mildred Washington co-producer of the Apex has specialty number that fairly takes them away and no less. Miss Washington is one of the best dancers in the state of California, black or white. The title of her selection was, "Aint You Kind of Gay." JUBILEE SINGERS SCORE The Kentucky Jubilee stars of the last three weeks program scored another hit Wednesday night with their singing of Southern Melodies and spirituals. Suey Hoy and Laura Smith did their bit to rounds of applause. Miss Hoy the girl with the Chop Suey, name scored her hit with "Shoo Shoo Boo-gey Boo" and take it from me Miss Hoy was shooing the Blues away right Laura came right back to star with, "I want A Real Man." The kind she was warbling for would be kind of hard to find, but she was singing hard and sweet enough to get him. CHORUS CLOSES SHOW Miss Washington's fast moving chorus closed the show with, "Salute" and if you haven't seen the dance made famous by Charlie Witty, done by a chorus of 10 brown skin, beauties you haven't seen any dancing yet and still no less. DANCERS ON PRO. PROGRAM Dancers held the spot light this week on the professional program Curtis Cleveland, known as the Zizzler, did a tap number that brought him a nice hand. E. W. Cook, better known as (cookie) was with Mr. Cleveland and was kind enough to add to the dancing program. But the dancing that took the pro- fessional show was the team of Burghertt and Burghertt. It was a brother and sister team that really clicked. Charles Thompson, Sammy Montgomery and little Miss Theoplis James closed the show with a dance number a piece.

Now you will see this mighty Epic of the colored race told in thrilling dialogue and song which has been months in the making under the directorial hand of King Vidor. ON THE STAGE SUNDAY: BIG MINSTREL SHOW Featuring ALTON REDD & BAND DANCERS—SINGERS COMEDY—GAGS—FUN starring the Jubilee Singers and it went over with a bang. The new show that comes in about two weeks from now is said to have the Spiritual Show backed off the map. Seriously speaking I don't see how that could be, as that show built around those famous Jubilee singers was one of the best this writer ever had the pleasure to witness. Curtis Carpentier, assistant to Curtis Mosby, would not reveal the name of the show to me, but said that it would surprise a lot of folks and would draw larger crowds than ever known before at the Apex beautiful. AFTER THOUGHT We thought that we had finished this story, but Jim Porter came to our mind just as we were ready to stop tapping and call it a day. That Porter is a second Louis Armstrong. He receives more special requests for songs on his golden cornet than he can fill. It is our thought and suggestion to Curtis Mosby that all of his music should be arranged to bring out Porter and his playing a little more than he does. That's just a suggestion Curtis. Friay, March 7, 1930 Pittsburgh Critic Hails Negro Artists As Race Benefactors New York, February. 24.—Harvey Gaul, musical critic, of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, in reviewing a recent recital of Roland Hayes, hails the part played by Negro artists in bringing about inter-racial sympathy and understanding. He says in part: "It we could hear more Roland Hayeses, more Paul Robesons, it would do more for racial appreciation than a dozen good-will ambassadors and blathering Caucasian surveys. You hear these men and the Negro looms large and you are aware that the colored man has something or importance to contribute other than pick and shovel, washtub work." The Post Gazette of which Paul Bloch is publisher, recently published a fine editorial tribute to a Negro policeman who died while attempting to prevent a robbery. The services Sunday were up to the usual high standard. The Sunday School had a large attendance and at the eleven o'clock service the Pastor preached using as a text Ephesians 5:14. Subject: "Waking the Unawakened." The message was very helpful and inspiring. In the afternoon at three o'clock the pastor and several members of teh church attended the Quarterly meeting service at Ward Chapel. At the evening service, Rev. J. L. Jackson, pastor of the A. M. E. Church at Stockton, Calif., brought us the message. His sermon was greatly enjoyed by all. Good congregations worshipped at both services. This Sunday the pastor will preach at both the morning and evening services. At three o'clock there will be a mass meeting for men and boys fourteen years and older. The young men will furnish the music for the meeting. Every man of Grant and Wars Chapel Churches are asked to come and bring another man. Rev. J. W. Howard will address the meeting. SOCIAL Mrs. Lizzie Wilkerson passed away Saturday morning after a long period of illness. The funeral will be held from Macedonia, Rev. Curtis officiating. Mrs. Etta Perkins was seriously ill Sunday evening and was rushed immediately to the office of Dr. Bledsoe where she was given specials attention. She is report very much improved to the delight of her friends. Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Harper residing on East 106th entertained family guests last Saturday in honor of Washington's birthday. A wonderful repast was enjoyed by the guest. Among the guests was a cousin, Mr. Oscar Gallereah of Colo Springs, who contemplates making his future home here. Mrs. Mary Jones, of Oakland, Calif. returned home Tuesday evening after a few days in Los Angeles looking after the funeral arrangements of her sister Ida Disard who died Wed. Feb. 19th. The deceased was a native of Calif. and had made Calif. her home during her life time she is survived by four sisters, Mrs. Mary Jones, Mra. Ione Wright, Mrs. Flora Bruce and Mrs. Lula Monroe, of Oakland, Calif. --- as only he can make, after which all joined in the pledge to the flag and sang "America" while Old Glory was placed on the rostrum. The congregation at the evening service of February 23rd was delighted by the skill displayed by the pupils of Madame Belle O'Neil. Madame O'Neil has been a teacher of piano in Los Angeles for a good many years. She is a favorite especially with the members and visitors to Zion and has presented her school with credit on many occasions. Zion has a musical evening one Sunday night in each month, usually the fourth Sunday. Some of the city's best talent is represented. --- Dr. N. Curtis King has moved into his new home on E. 115th St. To say the least it is a thing of beauty and adds another attraction to this most popular street. Mrs. M. J. Burnes passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Armstrong, 10822 Willow Brook Ave., Tuesday morning, March 9th. Mrs. Mable Perkins, 1619 E. 108th St., was taken very ill last week. She is much improved and able to be out again. Macedonia Baptist Church less Sunday. School opened its session at the meal hour, many in attendance. The 11 a'clock services were conducted by Pastor Curtis, after which he preached a splendid sermon. At the close of service one soul was added. The Union met at 6:30 with President and Teachers present. The session lasted for 20 minutes and afterwards Rev. Fleming reviewed the lesson. The Union is doing real constructive work and calling for volunteers to help carry out the plans for a better and bigger B. Y. P. U. At 8 o'clock the services began with the Prelude from the Senior Choir; afterwards pastor introduced the speaker for the evening in the person of Rev. John Allen of Long Beach. Rev. Allen preached a very instructive sermon, using for his subj: 'The Coming of Christ. He made an earnest appeal to the sinners and several came forward for prayer. In the minister's introductory remarks he paid a very high tribute to our pastor for the wonderful sermon preceding and his graceful manner in conducting his services. The Lord's Supper was administered by Pastor Curtis with other ministers assisting. Services closed with very splendid financial reports. Regular services throughout the week.

He walked into the Newton Police Station and begged officers to arrest him and put him in jail on any charge they could think of. He gave his reason as someone was trying to bump him off and, therefore, felt that being incarcerated in the city jail would safeguard him from this unknown menace. Upon further investigation officers found he had no means of support or available money. He was taken to the Salvation Army, but refused their aid. Therefore, he was placed under observation in the psychoacardic ward. Mrs. Josephine Stone of 3203 Compton avenue was arrested on Feb. 19th at 730 E. 32nd St., on Wright Act Poseession over a quart and less than a gallon by Sergeant Adams and his squad of Newton Vice. It appears that Adams and his squad, on report that liquor was being sold at 730 E. 32nd St., armed with a warrant raided the above address supposed to have been operated by a Mrs. Marie Lewis. While there a man by the name of Will Basquin came in. On searching him, Sergeant Adams formed a loaded revolver on his person. He was hooked on suspicion of robbery. Then Sergeant Adams called up a bootleger by the name of Austin Cook, whom he had been told to call and say: "How are you fixed up?" Upon which the bootleger would take his order and deliver. Accordingly Adams did this. On the arrival of Austin Cook, Adams "shook him down" but found nothing. However, Cook was not as wise as he thought he was, for Adams had stationed one of his men outside to watch Cook as he drove up. The officer saw, Cook as he drove up. The officer saw Cook stop his car at 32nd and Stanford and walk down to 730 E. 32nd. Investigation of this car revealed this Mrs. Josephine Stone as occupant. On searching her, Adams and his men found a hot water bottle full of liquor, slung from her shoulder. Adam's squad is composed of Burns, Morse and Hamilton (his able assistant). On February 22nd Adams, Burns and Hamilton arrested Amos Jones. 1214½ E. 16th on Wright Act Possession and sale of 2½ pints of liquor which he unknowingly sold to Officer Burns. Miss Alice James was arrested on morals charge at same address.

He took the jail sentence. February 25, Officers Flow, Morgan and Pythian of Newton Vice arrested Mrs. Margaret Scott and Mrs. Olivia Romaine on Morals charges Well, folks, it look as though Liient. Clark of Newton Detective Bureau is still emulating the peaks of achievement and perfection. Monday night, February 24th, Clark apprehended Ben Smith, 1460 E. 49th, one of the trio who was alleged to have held up. robbed and killed a Chinaman in Pasadena last Saturday night. He confessed being a member of the trio that committed the crime, but denied that he did the shooting. it is alleged, and was booked on suspicion of murder and robbery. Smith claims that Theo F. Albrritt, now incarcerated in the City Jail in Pasadena, on the same charge as Smith, did the shooting. Albrritt claims that Smith did it. Albrritt was arrested Saturday night, the night the crime was committed. Clark had seen a picture of Smith and recognized him from this picture at 49th and Hooper. Chief of Police Kelley of Pasadena commended Clark for apprehending Smith. February 16th Detective Lieut. J. W. Clark and F. L. Conway of Newton Detective Bureau, arrested Chas. Vallier on suspicion of assault with deadly weapon as an outgrowth of an alleged stabbing of one Elisha Wade on February 15th at 32nd and Central by Vallier. Clark and Conway investigated and found sufficient evidence to file a felon complaint on him on February 18th. Bail was set at $2500 in Div. 3. Wade was operated on after the alleged stabbing and a 3-inch knife blade was taken from the scalp. Now that the election is drawing nearer, remember Congressman "De-Priest's words: "Men who can't be bought, bullied or bluffed!" Confucius taught his disciples three things that it might be wise to adhere to and take notice of as aspiring candidates are flashed before you in the twentieth century: "Four marks of a superior man are: In his conduct of himself he is humble; In serving his superiors (the people) he is respectful; In nourishing the people he is kind; In ordering the people, he is just." "Sincerity is the end and beginning of things; without sincerity there would be nothing." "The difference between the great real man and the ordinary aspirant as a man is that the real man has a fair mind which sees all sides, real manhood has a mind which is partisan and one-sided." A rule always seems to work or is applicable both ways. In the case of search warrants this assumption is without a doubt impregnated, for although a warrant on the part of police officers in making raids is essential in order to insure protection of certain specified and abstract rights of the citizenry of large, obtaining the warrant sometimes proves a distinct disadvantage and purely improvident. It appears that Officers Flow, Morgan, Spanach of Newton Vice were loitering in the vicinity of 57th and Compton. On leisurely driving past 1543 E. 57th St., their keen olfactory nerves detected liquor. They concluded that there must have been a plant somewhere on the premises, but having no search warrant they could not search the place. However, one of the officers went after a warrant and the others remained in the immediate vicinity to watch the above premises. While the officer that went after the warrant was gone the necessary length of time to obtain a warrant, a person was seen to emerge from the above premises. And when the officer did return with the warrant and the whole squad went on the premises to investigate, they found 3 twenty-five gallon barrels of liquor with an electric aging needle. It was one of the best aging Annual Sermon of Uniform Rank of Knights of Pythias The Uniform Rank of Knights of Pythias held its annual sermon at the Knights of Pythias Hall, Sunday, February 23rd. Sir Knight P. Price Cobbs, M. D., Master of Ceremonies, introduced Reverend E. E. Lightner who in his masterful way neached a very instructive and inspiring sermon to the Knights and friends. His subject "Ye are my Friends," was taken from John 15th chapter, 14th verse. He very beautifully outlined the meaning of Friendship. Saving in part: "Friendship is indispensable, that it is necessary in human life." Jesus needed friendship He had his inner circle of friends. A true friendship is always accessible. He can always be reached. He is sympathetic, rejoices in your enjoyment, is saddened by your sorrow, is willing to make sacrifices for you, construes you favorably, magnifies your good points and sees the best in you." Encouraging remarks were made by Captain Harrison Slater. Brothers Lindsey, Norman and Brooks. Sister Brown represented the Calanthes. We are having a decided success with our drive-known as the Bowers Memorial Drive that is very efficiently directed by our Regional Director, Brother P. Price Cobbs. During this drive special consideration is given applicants as we are planting to end up with five hundred members. Each citizen that is not a member of this constructive organization, should interest himself to the extent that he would like to become a member and to help to make the Pythian Lodge of California the greatest of its kind. Very truly yours. P. P. COBBS; M. D. BENJAMIN I. BOWIE POST HAS A BUSY WEEK Benjamin J. Bowie Post has just finished a week of unreal activities. On last Monday night the Post enjoyed five reels of the official U.S. Government War Films covering the entire period of the World War and shown through special arrangements. On Wednesday night some 20 or more candidates were initiated through a radio service over the National Broadcasting System. More than 40 members attended the services at the Alhambra Post as guests of the pistol队 team were on hand at the police pistol range, to complete four days of activities for the week. BEN ROWIE AUXILIARY GIRIS TO MAKE WHOOPPEE The ladies of the Ben J. Bowie Auxiliary are having another night of joy at the Apex Night club on Thursday night, February 27th. This is the second whooppee jamboree put on at the Apex by the Auxiliary and it bids air to eclipse the previous effort. The Ladies Book Club met at the home of Mrs. Odd Goodwin. The discussion for the evening was, "What has happened to clothes and Why" Miss-Readie, of Marston's Department Store, gave an interesting tak on clothes. The next meeting there will be a formal review of some Modern Negro Poets. plants found by officers in some time. However, the officers had no one to arrest for the possession of the layout. for although they hung around until 3:00 A. M., the following day, the person that they saw emerge from the place early the evening before never showed up again. Therefore the layout was booked as "Found Evidence." SAN DIEGO SECTION The Inter-Racial Conference promoted by the organization of which Dennis V. Allen is the president, held at Bethel A. M. E. Church on last Thursday Evening was a magnificent success. The banquet which preceded the meeting held in the Auditorium of the Church was composed of more than 100 guests and a menu was provided which evoked the praise of each one present. Assembling in the Auditorium of the Church for the general meeting every seat was taken. President Allen presided. MAYOR CLARK INTRODUCES SPEAKER OF EVENING H. E. MACBETH In a few well chosen words Mr. Allen presented Mayor Clark who in turn introduced the speaker of the evening. Hon. Hugh E. Macbeth of Los Angeles. Mr. Macbeth delivered a most wonderful address upon the subject of "Justice." He held the audience spell-bound with his magnificent and doquent address, and upon its conclusion the applause was demeaning and listed for fully five minutes. Mrs. Chas, H. Dodge was introduced and in responding said many very complimentary things about the speaker, Mayor Clark and the eminent persons present. She noticed the Eagle editor had arrived in the building and closed with a suggestion for him to speak. The president then called forward and introduced J. B. Bass, editor of the California Eagle, who in turn, spoke along the lines of inter-racial effort. From the manifestations of approval the editor was indeed well received. Be it known all peoples were present on this occasion including the Colored Americans, Mexicans, Japanese, Chinese and white Americans. Also nearly all of the County and City officials, including the Mavor of the city, sheriff, all county officials, city councilmen, judges of the Superior Courts, Justice of Peace, District Attorney, etc., were present. Branch Office Golden State Insurance Co. We visited the branch office of the Golden State Insurance Company at San Diego and found everything in ship shape and an air of progress. We were much elated at the evidence of support which the people of San Diego are rendering to this very splendid company. MR. AND MRS. CHAS. H. DODGE Among the pioneer and progressive citizens of San Diego are Mr. and Mrs. Chas. H. Dodge. Mr. Dodge is one of the trusted employees in one of the most responsible positions in the Southern Bank and Trust Company of San Diego. Aside from this Mr. Dodge is noted for his support for all movements which tend to elevate the people along all lines of effort. Mrs. Dodge is one of the leading civic workers in the entire country. Her's is a life of service for her ennole. She is a past president of the Colored Women's Federation of Club for the State of California. MR. AND MRS. ED. ANDERSON Among San Diego's leading citizens and part and parcel of all its history and progress we found at their home on top of the hill, with a majestic view of the beautiful city which they helped to build. The name of the Anderson's is synonymous of progress and thrift and by practical demonstration they have made for themselves examples well worthy of emulation. Rev. Mr. Dyson, among San Diego's progressive citizens, who conducts a real estate office, was much pleased at our decision to again function in San Diego and assured us of his support. REV. AND MRS. J. H. BROWN Rev. Brown who is the brilliant and energetic pastor of Calvary - Baptist Church has wrought well in this community and has kept the standard at Calvary Church high.

ROBINSON These good people who operate the Robinson Hotel are among the most valued supporters of this publication. They are a high credit to San Diego and their reputation as worthwhile citizens is known throughout the country.

HON. BERT McLEES COUNTY CLERK Ever since the memory of man runs not to the contrary the Hon. Bert McLees has occuired the position of County Clerk for San Diego County. He has filled that position with such satisfaction that the voters have never thought of anyone to oppose him. His popularity is merited from his sterling character and worth as a man who truly guards the interests of the people. Mr. McLees has for many years been a supporter of the California Eagle and we hold him in the highest esteem as one of California's most capable and efficient public officials.

All classes of the citizens of San Diego are his strong supporters. Every movement for better citizenship has his unqualified support. He has faithfully performed his duty in this very important office and all people without any regard to race, color or creed have had in him a faithful advocate. He is particularly interested in all forward movements from the various groups in their efforts to accomplish the things worthwhile and is one of the supporters of the Inter-Racial programs which have had such a beneficial effect in maintaining the pleasant relations which exist in this community. SHERIFF E. F. COOPER A worthy successor indeed has been the present incumbent of the Sheriff's office of San Diego to the late and lamented E. J. Byrne. Mr. Cooper has lived up to every expectation of his friends and kept this office absolutely upon the high plane as was achieved by his predecessor. Appointed by the Board of Supervisors on April 29, 1929, he has made good to such an extent that the consensus of opinion is that he will receive such a strong support for renomination that he will be elected at the primaries on August 26th. The colored voters of San Diego especially speak in words of praise for Sheriff Cooper's administration and it goes without saying he will receive from them a hearty support. Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Burleigh of El Centro were visitors in the city Monday. They were the guests of Miss Octavia Payne and other friends. Mrs. F. J. Loper, prominent former resident of Colorado Springs, who is now making his home in Oakland, Calif., is the guest for a few days of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Barnett on 32nd Street.

HONFSTY OF THF YOUNG Scientific investigetors are learning many facts about children which it is suspected parents have long known. After the experts have learned all there’ is to learn from their three vears’ study of ‘ honesty” among school children, they will probably know no more than every parent_of_a normal child already knows. “Fem ‘Tests have been devised to discover tendencies to lie, cheat or steal. At the samé time ordinarv intelligence tests were given in order to show the relation between good sense and good character, if any. . The results indicate, the most intelligent child is likely to be most honest. A number of questions designed to probe the religious and filial feel- ings were answered as might have been expected, and’ the children were convicted of “overstatement.” Apparently they all thought it desirable that they should sqem pious and dutiful, and they seid that they thought it their duty to read the Bible every day, to pick up broken glass in the street. to speak kindly to their parents ‘and instructcrs, and to try to get the license number of a motor vghicle if they suspected the driver of speeding. Most children have an uncanny knack of reading the mind of a questioner. They af as shrewdly observant as menkeys, end a really intelligent inquirer often has to resort to trickery to get to the bottom of their busy little minds. . CLEAN UF There is no “sure sign” of spring, but spring should be a “sure sign” of the arrival of that time for the community to:clean up. There is no superstition or prophesying about this clean-up sign. When warm weather has come to stay (until cold weather returns in the autumn) every owner of property and tenant should instinctively feel it his duty to remove the evidences of winter's ravages and to aid and augment nature,in. her work of rebeautification. “Every spring clean-up program should include disposal of winter's accumulation of litter and decayed vegetation, repairing and repainting of buildings, and landscape gardening. Landscape gardening is no long- er associated with large estates alone. . ‘Cleaniness about the person or the home costs nothing.” A commun- pr eee need involve no expense, except of a moderate amount of la- on the part of the householders. If there ever were excuses for un- cleanliness they were rémoved long ago. . ‘What is the compensation of a community-wide clean-up campaign? 4t improves the general-health pf the community by removing deposits that are bréeding places of disease germs and disease carrying insects.

Dr. Osgood, Minneapolis, Minn., speaking at a meeting of min- isters in Cheiago, said, “The Sunday School by separating the religictis experience of children from that of adults, has largely: killed religion in American family life.

The [NO AL A.C. P.. an association dedicated to human rights, was foremost in stressing the eplendors of the men who birthed and. perpetuated the American nation. Speakers told af personal characteristics af the two men and compared them. Very many who addressed assemblies found a similarity in their physical and menial makeup. Washington and_Lin- coln merit all of the encomiums, They’ were the examples of national loy- jalty. ‘They had faith in the ultimate triumph of right. and belie? in the justness of the cause espoused by them. But there was another outstand- |ing ‘American character born in‘that month of February which most of the orators failed to remember. Like Lincoln he was of lowly: birth. Born in the depths he rose to such height that netions of the earth mar- veled. Frederick Douglass should be included in a%tgiumvirate, It was he who strengthened the hand and arm of Arbraham Lincoln when deep- est'gloom was on the nation. Ilis counsel guided the War President in his attitude toward the emancipated slave. The lives of Washington and {Lincoln are presented to the pupils of the public schools.

In the meantime; unemplov- ment appears to be of the increase, So much so, that labor trouble has reached the stage of actual protests which has verged on rioting. Presi- dent Hoover has warned against excessive expenditure of public funds, and that too, after his plea to the captains.of industry to use every means to thwart the “hard times” theory by actual expenditures which will give employment to the masses. It takesea genius in finance to make “two blades of grass grow where on only grew before.”. Merchants publicly declare good business, but in private deplore the lack of it.

Unemployment has’ been minimized, especially in California, by the fore- thought and careful attention to the details of employment by Govern- or Young. The expenditure of public mofey has been placed wisely. Needed improvements on, and building of new highways have giver work to many who would otherwise have been added to the army of the idle. The welfare of the states citizens have been uppermost, in the thoughts of the Governor and he has subordinated all else to it. Even his own political future. But, as it is often said: His constituency will attend to that.

C. E, Chapman of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, has! writ ten Prof. Miller an ‘open ‘letter in which he expressed surprise and cis- appointment at the position which is taken by the Miller article which at- tempted to justify Presdient_ Hoover in the failure to appoint a Negro to membership on the Haitian Commiss- ion, he Kelly Miller article maintain ed that no Negro of known and prov- ed “expertness and experience in In- ternational” matters was available. Rev. Mr, Chapman asks how and when is the Negro to ever become “expert and experienced in International” af- fairs if never gvien a chance? The Open Letter follows: “Prof, Kelly Miller, Washington, D.C. “My dear Sir: “Lam as much disappointed at your clever sophistry as you, I, and others are at the failure of President Hoover to designate one able, fearless Negro on the Haitian Commission. “Kindly “observe . the following: Formerly you auvocated the appoint- ment of a Negro on the Haitian Com- mission. Yet in this article (just a few days later) you seem to have had a change of heart or head (or some- thing) and have completely turned around and new say: ‘No Negro could be found of like eminence, with the same degree of international experience and expertness, President Hoover showed his appreciation of the im portance of the issues involved by ap- pointing a commission of such high calibre and quality.’ Frankly, that seems a complete ‘knockout.’ You, yourself, admit that certain. members of the commission con't shine so bril- Kantly along certain lines—yet you raise no word of protest against their having been appointed. Then, if it is not an unpardonable crime on the part of the President to appoint two or three of Caucasian blood. then why try to justify his not having named at least oue member from the Negro race of similar expertness (even if on a slightly lower level) than the Cau- eusian member? “Permit a few questions just here: Would President Hoover have shown ; any lack of ‘appreciation of the impor- | tance of the issues involved’ Fad, he appointed 2 Negro as a member’ of the commission? Would the member- ship of a Negro on thet Commission | have lessened the dignity of the com- j mission? Doesn't there always, have to he “the first time’ to everything? And if so, when will the Negro ever become expert and experienced’ im in- | ternational matters but through being gover the oportinies to do and show their ability. to became ‘expert experi- j enced? | “You chim: “President Hoover is | it politically anind.d, His highest dim ts ts britig effieieney to the pab- Lie sctsive” The only inference here | ixthat the yreseurepal a Negce would | preclude the possibility of ‘efficiency [in the public service.” The only. ine Ficrenve here is that the presence of a Negro would preclude the possibility Voi “efficiency in the public service?

Big Opportunity! — The object of this big prize distribution is two-fold: Pri marily it is sponsored to increase the already large subscription list of The California Eagle. It also gives our friends and readers ‘an unparalleled opportunjty to profit in a big way through their spare time uring the next few weeks. The plan adopted is the fairest and most impartial conceiv- able. It is straight forward, simple, and is fully outlined in this issue. Ambition and energy are the only requisites for success. Let is be understood at the very outset that this is not 4 “Beauty” nor “Popularity” contest but a straight, legitimate, competitive proposition for enterprising men and women, and one into which no element of chance enters, One feature of this competition is the fact that there will be no losers in this rac. HOW TO ENTER CAMPAIGN All prizes are FREE and will be giver to the persons who show.the best sales record at the close of the campaign. Sub- scriptions get votes and the one that obtains the greatest num- ber of subscriptions, thereby having the largest number of votes at the close of the campaign, will be awarded the Essex Sedan, the second highest, the $500.00 in Gold, and so on down. The greater the number of people are that enter the cam- paign, the easier it will be to win the Essex Sedan, or $500.00 in Gold, for the field will be divided more, and naturally it would take less votes to win the Essex Sedan or $500.00 in Gold, than if only a few entered. * It is the sincere aim of this paper, The California Eagle, to conduct the campaign, from start to finish, in a fair hanorable and impartial manner. Every precaution has been taken to safeguard the interests of the participants, and absolute hon- esty in all dealings is guarqnteed. However, not all wisdom lies within any one man or insti- tution, and for that reason an Advisory Board has been decided upon, whose function shall be'to decide any question of suffi- cient moment that might happen to arise during the competit- ion, amd from which shall be selected a committee to count votes and award the prizes the last night of the campaign. The personnel of this board is as follows: Dr. H. C. Hudson, L. G. Robinson, Attorney Hugh E. Mac beth, A. Hartley’ Jones, Clarence Mills, Pasadena, and, Curtis Mosby. ft SCHEDULE OF VOTES -AND SUBSCRIPTION RATE OF THE Embracing the _ first twenty-four days (ter minating’ April 1) the following ‘number of -vot- es wil be Issued on sub- scriptions: Votes t-year ......$2,00 _ 3,000 2—years _.... 4.00 8,000 B—years _... 6.00 25,000 ‘The above schedule of votes, which tg on a declining scale pasis, gasitive- ly will not be changed during'the campaign.

He is living within us and never shows himself in hate. He is the champion of love, and though I drop my eyes to earth, I am sure to look above. "My God, omnipresent and true God, is everywhere." Why is it he is not in fear and hate? Noise, disease, and malice lie, because these thing are not of God. Fictions they must be. In songs he is a materpiece in prayer, a strong foundation.

Because the race is weak econo- Micafly it.has very little Political pow- er, is socially .ostracised for the most part, and enjoys no more civic rights than white public opinion tolerates. Furthermore, Negroes are lynched with impunity ih this copntry and dis- franchiged jin certain stages by Law in direct violation of the United ‘States constitution. Consumers’ co-operative business operated by and for the masses will save the race the profits of its con- sumption. With this. profit employ- ment will be created. ;, That means positions for boys and girls whom we are training in the schools and col- leges every year. Starting first in the most fundamental ofall material things, food, extensions would be made in other distribution, then in forming ang manylacturing. In this way eco- nomic power will bé developed, and just as political and civic weakness is the result of economic weakness, eco- nomic strength will maké us strong in all phases of racial’ activigies. When the Negro race igrows econo mically strong lynching will cease and no one will prasume to have authority to direct our place of abode. The economic strengtit of the Negro race lies in its purchasing power. and can only be realized by, channellizing that power. This is possible only through consumers’. co-operation. Por over-twenty years the race has made a strenuous yet fruitless effort to gain its freedom and develop itseli. In that space of time many makeshiit plans have been employed. We have tried begging our way, into'the hearts aud industries of the whites; we have tried fighting them in the courts oi the land; we have tried inter-racial conferences and goodwill Sundays; we have reared up church steerles and ‘utterly ignored the building of smoke- stacks; we heve adopted Belgium war babies, and other temporary expedi- ents and our conditior 1s citizens is not the least bettereas a result of tuese makeshifts. ‘The Negro race Med not expect to improve itseli until the masses are ad- vanced. The masses cannot be ad- vanced except by establishment and Ge- veloping consumers’ co-operative busi- ness, In its great uplifting influence upon the masses consumers’ co-operative business is iar better than philanthrop- hy, because it creates racial mutual dependence and self resepct. Consum- crs’ co-operation is organized economy. Its operation creates’ power that ren- ders service to ourselves’ and others. Where a race of people is depend- ent upon the whims and tolerzace of another as is tht case hetween the blaék race and the white in this coun- try, is no indication of progress but retrogression. As presently eonstitut- ed the Negro race is a foothall of, and a joke to, the dominant race and a victim of its own economic negligence and its employment of impossible methods of racial uplift. Despite our position as a race of beggars however, and our fruitless at- tempt to build the race from the ton downward, it is not as yet too late to institute 2 fundamental change. Al- though we are being displaced jn em. ployment by whites oe ‘ate being re- lieved of certain work because of the edvent of labor-saving machinery, and even though we are being put out of our somes by various stawg supreme courts and Federal courts, there is a way out and that way is nome otber than consumers’ co-opération.~ Consumers’ co-operation will not only create power within the race but will stimulate a desire within us to do for ptheys; it will create a social vis- ion among us; will teach us to forego the immediate advantages for the fe moter good, and will impress upon us the need for unity and fellowship, re- gardless of religious belief. Consu- mers’ co-operation will cause profits to yield to service, division fo frater- nity, ‘strife to concord, and best of alf Wwe will work not for others but with bthers:- - -- ~ ts The Negro race needs to do things for itself without looking to others. Consumers’ ¢o-operation.. will give us the benefit of self-direction by impos- ing responsibilities and self-govern- ment. It will give us trained individu- ws to see their duties to otbers as well as to themselves. Better race relationship will be creéted and no bitterness left behind. Co-operation of the masses in business 1s practical, desirable, necessary; it is the hope of the Negro, IF YOU ARE A MARRIED wo- MAN, HERE ts A CHANCE TO DEMONSTRATE TO YOUR HUSBAND THAT YOU ARE -THE BEST AMONG ‘EM; AND IF YOU ARE NOT MAR- RIED, HERE IS THE WAY TO GET A GOOD ‘UN— The Foreign Missionary Societies of Hamilton M.

Appeal to Inter-Denomi We are’ asking you to pass a Reso. fution. to egmove all Political Meetings from; the «churches. There are many reasons why such a resolution should be adopted. . First, we firmly believe that the church is not the place for Political influence as. it"tends to des- ‘troy the spiritual growth of the church., Thirdly, it divides the con- gregations into‘ two or more factions, and in course of debate creates and arouses unfriendly feeling between members, We.discuss not facts, but what suits our candidate. Fourthly, in many instances the. pastors and of- ficers are charged with accepting money from candidates.* Whether this statement is true or false the people still have their opinions. «Lastly, we believe’ that ‘the ‘church -was'.created by God for a place of worship, peace, and tranquility, where manjmight seek his salvation and life eternal: We are asking the co-operation of all organized bodies and of individuals to influence the Minister's Alliance in passing this résolution. We submit this in good {aith for the advancement of the church and hope it will receive your prayerful consideration. . 3. CG LEAKE FRANK “A. LAWS W.\H. DUNCAN c. W. WOODS H. A, REEVES G.W. SNELL S$.

He also showed a man was a man with him regardless of the color of his skin for on the west side where Pat housed his three fighters near West-Lake Park Dummy lived and trained with his black companion with the same friendliness and companionship he did with his white one. Mahan's passing brings to mind the sudden untimely ending of other famous ring stars. Among them were Joe Goodard, shot in election brawls, Stanley Ketchell, shot by a jealous husband, Battling Siki, killed by a unknown assasin, Harry Greb, dieing after an operation, and the late and sadly lamented Deacon Tiger Flowers who under an anaesthetic on the operating table for a minor operation never recovered consciousness. All these and numerous others were in the prime of life and the height of fame when the sudden finale came and are always remembered kindly by their admirers friends and foe alike.

TOGETHER AT LAST—ZORRILLA AND LA BARBA AT OLYMPIC TUE For a long time local fight fans greedy for new thrills have craved to see the bobbing, weaving, whirling brown body of Santigo Zorilla and the leaping, flashing, charging white body of Fidel La Barba tangle in the padded circle in a veritable cyclone of leather. For a long time each of the rival camps have contended that Zorilla can send the idolized little Italian lawyer back to his books, and or that the fighting barrister will send Zorilla back to his quiet home on the Isthmus of Panama. At last they meet next Tuesday night, at the Olympic Auditorium in a ten-round main event that is destined to be chock full of action from the clang of the first gong to the drone of the last one. La Barba made a trip east last year after coming out of retirement and his law classes at Stanford which turned out to be a triumphal tour, winning handily in all his starts except the loss of a close decision to the wizard, Kid Chocolate. His sensational knock out of Al Singer was the talk of the sports world during this eastern invasion. Recently at the Olympic he has decisively beaten Fernandez and Johnny Torres, and at Hollywood, the Filipino flash, Fernandez. Meanwhile Zorilla has not been idle, he also marched through the trenches of the eastern front sweeping all before him including Joey Sangor at Milwaukee. Fans also still discuss the terrible beating h egave the ex-bantam champ. Bud Taylor, the blonde "Terror of Terra Hante" which laid Bud up in the hospital for a long time getting numerous repairs to nose and body. Indications point to a packed house and Zorilla's Central Avenue and Bay Cities followers will be out in full force. Zorilla is in prime shape, his astute manager, "Big Shot" Wirt Ross, bundling him off to Soper's ranch an putting him through the works out in the wide open spaces. An excellent supporting card has been lined up by Matchmaker Wad Wadhams, PHIL EDWARDS LOSES IN FRONT OF HIS BRIDE!
