Join The Silent Parade On To The Women's Economic Mass Meeting Second Baptist Church Sunday, 3 P. M. 1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1930 CHINESE PORTERS REPLACE COLORED "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart he acceptable in thy sight. O Lord, my strength and my redeemer."—Psalms 19:14. How many of us at the close of each day can consistently check on our thoughts and words to the extent that we may stretch out on our beds and see them pass before our closed eyes not unlike moving pictures, and as it were nestle snugly in slumber's arms with the satisfied smile on our lips knowing that this day we have done unto our brother even as we would that he should do unto us? THERE comes out from New York the news that ex-convicts are being used to rescue white girls from the underworld. Outstanding industrial institutions are contributing large sums of money for the rehabilitation of these girls. A check on some of these institutions contributing to this rehabilitation fund prove that some of these very institutions on the other hand were responsible for their downfall. What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive. BEFORE WE CAN hope for permanent peace in the nations of the world there must first come peace in the hearts of men. The Naval Conference is revealing to the world the lengths to which jealous individuals and nations are willing to go in pursuit of their ambitions. If the Conference were to break tomorrow, France, denied her treaty of security, would claim the right to increase her navy from 500,000 tons to 750,000 tons; Italy to match France; Japan to increase her relative and actual strength; Great Britain to finish her Singapore base, increase her cruisers from 2 t o70 and her submarines to outnumber France; America to build every class of naval craft until she surpasses all competitors—an orgy. TO AVERT FURTHER. Failure in our program of peace, let's start a peace program in our homes and when we go to our churches for Sunday worship, take it with us there; and in our local political situation, which to date has been a school of intrigue and double crossing, let's have peace there also. SELFISH INDIVIDUALS who will use any means to the end of achieving their heart's desire should not be trusted with leadership. RUTH HANNA MC CORMICK goes sliding down the political board walk to into the Senate while the venerable Charles S. Deneen looks on in sad dismay, realizing that, not for this term, anyhow, and perhaps never again will he stand on the floor of that august body and help to run the world. One by one the women are marching in and realizing that it will take united effort to save America from the fate of that ancient Roman empire that burned while Nero fiddled, the white women of the nation with the black women as close second are taking hold of the reigns of government. SUNDAY'S SILENT PARADE which forms at 2 P.M., 50th and Compton Avenue, invites the common herd, those representing the industrial workers of this section of the world, to march on to the Second Baptist Church where the mass meeting will be staged, in which a census will be taken as to our local economic condition. A true check will be made as to whether we are advancing or retrogressing in the path of economic progress. LOOKING OUT upon the political horizon at this time there is but one outstanding figure and that is little Buron Fitts, who stands, as it were, as a gladiator, fighting a lone battle in the political arena. Before him there is an army of admirers, who realize that Buron Fitts' one and only aim is to clean up Los Angeles and make California a better state in which to live. Of course, at his back the Pharisees who condemned even the works of the Christ, are crying "Away with him who seeks to destroy our political institutions of graft upon which for lo these many years, we have grown (Continued on Page Fourteen) NEW YORK OPENS MODEL CHAIN STORE NEW YORK OPENS MODEL CHAIN STORE Popular Saleslady Takes a Vacation THE MUSICIAN Miss Lucille Edwards Miss Lucille Edwards, Field Saleslady of the Eastern Outfitting Co. resign, ill health given as reason.

Miss Edwords leaves this week for Santa Barbara for complete recovery and rest. Her host of friends and admirers sympathize with her, and wish her a speeck recovery. Brother Kills Brother Rouston, La. April 8—(ANP) Jack Wilson was shot and killed by his brother, Monk Wilson, when the two at the home of the former, were playing with two U. S. revolvers. According to testimony from the wife of the victim and of a sister of the Wilsons, eye-witnesses, the shooting was purely accidental nad upon an investigation made by Dr. W. S. Rutledge and Deputy Slyde Frasier it was decided that no, charges would be preferred. The shot which killed Wilson entered the right temple and penetrated through the head coming out on the forehead. He died about an hour later. NEW YORK CITY. April 8—The first model grocery store in the United States planned by the Progressive Grocer for Negroes was auspiciously opened Saturday, April 5th, at the northwestern corner of Seventh Ave. and 144th Street. The occasion was historic for the local branch of the Colored Merchants' Association, organized last fall by Albon L. Holsey, Secretary of the National Negro Business League. Housewives of the community showed their marked interest in the opening by visiting the store in large numbers. Throughout the day it was crowded with customers and sightseers who congratulated the management on its up-to-date policy and pledged their loyal support. W. L. Butler, Associate Editor of the Progressive Grocer, who has remodeled 1200 grocery stores, supervised the pride of the C. M. A. Stores. Much attention has been given to color and charm. The ceiling is painted cream and the walls ivory. The shelving is ivory, trimmed with apple green. So is the cash register, ice box and delicatessen case. The fruit and vegetable stands are enameled apple green. Two windows with plate glass mirrors and window boxes done in apple green, filled with artificial Golden State Sets Fast Pace; Ranks High In State Among the 105 leading companies doing health and accident insurance business in the state of California, our own Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company ranked nineteenth in point of premium income on this class of business during the year 1929. This information was first made public by the record published in the March 20 issue of the Underwriters' Report, leading insurance magazine on the Pacific Coast. The accomplishment of the Golden State is even more remarkable when it is remembered that this company is less than five years of age and the eighteen companies doing a greater volume of business were operating many years before the Golden State was organized. In addition to the accident and health business, the company operates a splendid life department which is developing very rapidly. Insurance critics have pronounced their life policies as being among the most attractive and serviceable policies issued in the state of California. All California citizens and especially colored Americans be proud of the growth, progress and service of the Golden State Insurance Company. In addition to the high class insurance service, the Company now stands as one of the heaviest employers of our people in the state and is rendering a valuable service in helping to solve our employment problem. The company affords many opportunities for skilled help as its list of employed shows clerks, stenographers, agents, superintendents, claim adjusters, medical examiners and officers. As time goes on and the company grows older, its income will increase along with its increased advantages and greater opportunities to young men and women as they come out of school. Special opportunities to earn money are now offered to men and 'women in the agency department. You can work part time or whole time. If you want to increase your income, if you want to engage in pleasant work that gives you a worth-while future, communicate with the nearest office of the Golden State Insurance Company.

The store of the display type is arranged to save the customer time and step, and the customer is practically next to every item and can personally see and examine everything in stock. The new model store is owned by several members of the Harlem Merchants' Association. Arthur N. Jones, for nearly five years a clerk in one of the A and P. Stores, is manager, and is assisted by Robert Mitchel. Monster Mass Meeting For Economic Freedom and Industrial Progress Some weeks ago a body of forward looking women met and decided that in order to stimulate Negro business and in the meantime call attention to the facts in the case, which are: 1-Negro's prejudice to Negro business. 2-Monopoly of white business in Negro sections where the patronage is entirely Negro and yet Negroes are denied the right to share profits in same, in that, they are denied employment by said firms and 3-Selfish leadership within and without the face, should be diagnosed as the greatest impediments in the way of Negro industrial progress. A few Sundays ago. Negro women headed under the caption of the Republican Study Club held a monster mass meeting at the Second Baptist Church at which time attention was called to the fact that politically we had been ostracised because of false leadership in the realm of politics. The women decided that no longer will we be bought and sold politically but would stand on our rights as Americans and demand equal citizenship because of the fact we share equally in the upheaval and support of our local and national governments in that we are taxed and assessed along with other people; and so long as we play our part in the political drama in these lines, just so long will we demand equal consideration with other Americans. Now that this forward step along the political line has been taken Sunday afternoon, April 13, the women will again take a stand, this time for economic freedom, realizing that our attention is constantly diverted from our economic conditions by those who stand ever ready to hood-wink Negroes as to what it really takes to liberate him from serfdom in the industrial world. The first gun will be fired at 2 P.M. at 50th and Compton where a great silent parade will form in which every phase of Negro industrial life will be represented and march in silence to the Second Baptist Church at 24th and Griffith where a mass meeting will be held and actual conditions with regards to Negro industries will be related, and a method discussed for uniting our forces in promoting Negro business and keeping the dollar in the circle, to the end that we make openings for our boys and girls as they came forth from our institutions of learning and trade schools. Women, who are the mothers of the men who have fought the battles of this nation, have always been ready to answer whatever call was made that carried with it it a sense of better conditions in the industrial life of the nation for their sons and daughters and realizing that vigilance is the price of industrial freedom, after having watched the signs of the time, they have decided that first of all we must eradicate race inferiority as we see it in each other, hence in ourselves, the first step of which will be the support of Negro business efforts by Negroes. Why should Negroes in sections of the city into which they have been pushed or shoved by those in control. (who have so allotted that this particular brand of American should not be allowed to reside or do business in sections consisting of whites.) permit white merchants to come into these so called black sections and sell them whatever they eat. drink or wear without even giving them the consideration of any sort of employment in said institutions. Finally brethern, the great problem before us at this time which will be discussed Sunday afternoon in this monster mass meeting promoted by the women with the men making up the audience, will be the launching of an industrial program, that will not so much eliminate selfish leadership from the industrial rank and file, as the installation of a mental molding machine by which process we propose to shape and fashion what we have into what we really need. So with this much of our program before you for your digestion, we are asking every city employee, county and state; every individual representing any sort of Crowds Flocked to N. A. A. C. P. Meeting Last Sunday To Greet William Pickens Dean Wm. C. Pickens, field seev' of the national body of the N. A. A. C. PJ was the magnet which drew the packed house which turned out to hear this great decipie of human rights at the A. M. F. Zion church on last Sunday. His address was both colorful as well as illuminating upon the situations which confronted the American citizens today. The Dean is in a class to himself and never fails to put proposition over. Out here in this section. Pickens is appreciated to the highest degree for the great service he is rendering for mankind and have no hesitancy in making the fact known by giving to him their unstinted support. The Juvenile Branch of the local Association rendered a very acceptable program preceding the address of the day by Mr. Pickens and truly last Sunday will long be remembered as a banner day for the local Branch as a full of hope and inspiration THEATER STOPS SEGREGAT ION As a result of the suits field by the Dr. Ralph Bledsoe, N. R. Knox and Mrs. Daisy Daniels prominent and outstanding citizens of South Los Angeles against the Largo theatre, the mangaement has completely abolished its previous policy of discrimination and abondoned every semblance of segregation. Damage actions were filed against the theatre totaling the sum of $6000, through the Law Offices of Atty. Lewis K. Beeks and shortly thereafter the management, after conferences with principals and attorneys immediately dis-continued the policy which was the principal object of the suits. The outcome is most gratifying to the citizens of Los Angeles, since the principal invalued and not the commercial importance of the situation was stressed by those concerned.

If the postoffice department is goin to be able to perform its full duty for the public without an ever-increasing deficit and consequent drain on the national treasury, it is going to be necessary for Congress to authorize an increase in the rate for first-class postage from two cents to two and one-half cents an ounce, Postmaster General Walter, Brown declared in an address delivered before the Bronx Board of Trade Thursday night. Mr. Brown stated that the postoffice deficit had increased until it amounted to five millions of dollars last year. Much of this deficit, he declared, is caused by increased cost of transportation and increased wages. Movements are now on, he pointed out, to give postal employees a half day holiday on Saturday and to increase their vacations from fifteen to business owned, controlled or managed by Negroes, to come out on this occasion in order that we may know each other as we are known; and when this shall have been accomplished the rest of the world will realize that we are tired being the targets at which others hurl their prejudices which keep us in the shadow of industrial freedom instead of the Sunshine.

White Man Killed Dice Game Fight (ANP)—Although white people do not shoot craps and engage in crap game arguments, Rube Huff, a white farmer, and some of his white farmer friends engaged in a rapid and violent game Tuesday night which ended in a murder after there had ben a hot dispute over a point in the game. Farmer Huff was killed, and five other, whites, ranging in age from fifteen to fifty were seized afterwards in connection with the slaying. A shotgun was used to conclude the point argument. thirty days a year. To authorize the half-day holiday would result in an addition of thirteen millions to the postoffice expense and to increase the vacation period would mean twenty-one million more. "I do not protest against these movements," declared Mr. Brown, "because I believe that a government should not only be fair but generous with its employees. But if these innovations in the service are to be made, somebody will have to pay for (Continued On Page Seven) Bradley, Murderer Acquitted To the surprise of everyone E. Bradley was acquitted of the charge of murdering his wife. Dr. Anna May Bradley. The trial took place in Judge Carlos Hardy's court and came to an end when the jury returned a verdict of not guilty after being out one hour. Bradley who is a Pullman Porter was accused after evidence pointed to him, after her body was found in her car on a lonely ranch road near Watts with her head beaten and crushed in a terrible manner. PUT CHINESE PORTERS ON "LARK" BIGGEST SHAKEUP IN HISTORY OF PACIFIC COAST RAILROAD CIRCLES (Pullman porters were shocked last week with sudden announcement and inaugmentation of Chinese porters on two Pullman cars that are to be a feature of a new service recently established on the crack Pacific Coast Train, the "Lark." The substitution of Chinese porters will displace six Pullman porters who have been operating on the "Lark" for a number of years. An 8 section lounge car will take the place of a car 75 which is 12 section car and a late type lounge observation will be carried in place of the regular observation formerly in service on this training. There will be two Chinese porters in charge of each car as a result the following pullman porters will be displacee; J. Goodwin, J. Sykes, Ed. Houge, W. B. Holland, W. Theford, W. J. Logan. The Inaugmentation of Chinese porters on the Lark is but a forerunner to what is gradually developing in a program to eliminate the black American from their present lucrative positions. It is also rumored that the Southern Pacific will eventually replace their buffet help with oriental help, should this take place the following crack buffet porters who have been in the employee of the S. P. for years will be displaced from their present positions; Gip Smith, Guy Houston and Sam Tibbs. Killed by Slipping Lumber OAKDALE. LA. April 8. (A.N. P.)—Elmore Adams was found dead in a coal car loaded with lumber in De Ridder by workmen who were unloading the car. Death was caused from the lumber on the car slipping forward crushing his skull. HITTING AND PAWING AT THE AIR NOT REALIZING OLD DAYS ARE GONE Speaking of the present City administration and its attitude toward law enforcement and its application to all persons alike and having been a keen observer of all administrations for nigh unto a score of years we have no hesitancy in saying the present administration has demonstrated and is at this time giving to the people a brand new practise where the people themselves share and not the grafting collectors for vice. It presents to you today, yesterday and tomorrow a police system absolutely minus of graft or paying of tribute for protection. Any man or woman on the East-side or any other side who breaks the law does so at their peril. With our present system fixers are discredited and justice stalks abroad. The pernicious system which had existed for many years could not be worn down in the small span of time as eight months, but in due time all wrongs are on their way to be righted and every crook will get his due, vice will be reduced to the minimum and merit will be rewarded. The people on the Eastside in common with those on all sides have an abiding faith and confidence in our Mayor regardless of any of the inuceses proposed by those who cannot appreciate a situation without the usual vice program. In the meantime those who are so hot to criticise and know so much about the things they speak of if they are sincere and have the ideals of which they speak at heart. Consult your Police Captain and then if there is failure to get results, you can have a piece of ground to stand on. Otherwise they are only killing and pawing at the air.

The All City meet is to be held Saturday at Los Angeles High and the dark skinned boys will be there with bells on and still no less. Before we get doing on the possibilities of the black boys in the city, just a word about the meet held last week and their results. Louie Carmichael the speed demon of Jefferson took second in the century and first in the 440 with Fremont High. Louie will not be able to run in the city meet because he will have reached the age limit for high school boys, before the meet takes place. COURTNEY SETS RECORD "Buckethead", Courtney the demon 880 man for Riis High set a new record in his favorite distance to beat out the Jordan High Man., Courtney has voted the best man in the 440 and 880 in the city barring none and he is expected to clean up in the City. Earl Nickerson the flash of Riis wasn't quite up to snuff a thrilling Friday and Burch of Jordon High beat him out in the century and in the 220. The Jordon High man ran the century in 9 4-5 seconds to beat the Riis man. It was the same in the 220 Burch nosed out Nickerson after a thrilling race. Spicer also of Riis set a new Marine record for the low hurdles. The exact time is not available right at the present, but Spicer was stepping right along. NOW FOR THE CITY When the city rolls around the black boys should be right up there in the front, conning back with all kinds of records. They have just about all the track events seew up. Courtney should romp away with the 440 and the 880 and believe that kid can do it too. Watch him in the city. Nickerson should come no less than second in the century, with Burch pushing him fast and hard for first. These two boys can't and hasn't been beat by any of the white boys running. If Spice feels as he did last Friday he is a cinch in the low hurdles. So all in all it looks as if they were going to strut their stuff quite well and no less these brown skinned boys of ours. VARSITY LOST The 135 pound team went down to defeat at the hands of the fast breaking Hollywood team Saturday to the tune of 24 to 18.

Talk about efficiency! The house was due to close one night—Friday to complete installation of the new apparatus. The new loges had already been placed in and other improvements made. So scientifically was the work done that the house did not have to close. To cap the climax, Manager M. A. Ellsworth was not satisfied with the volume of the new sound in the highly vaulted house, and thought it sounded all right to the lay ear he had it replaced Saturday night after the show closed.

Silk Shirts Cause Arrest Of Gang Flashy silk shirts costing $20 and $25 were indirectly the cause of two young men, named Huse and Judson along with eight others, being placed under arrest at Fresno last week. Suits of clothes costing $85 and $100 as well as other evidences of sudden affluence likewise led to their downfall. Huse and Judson were employees of the government and had access to a government warehouse where fine wines, liquors and cordials were kept. For three months the government detectives have been trying to learn the cause of the disappearance of liquors from the warehouse. Raiding the residence of Huse after securing sufficient evidence they secured a large amount of bonded liquor and arrested Judson and six other boys, later picking up three more at a pool-room. Judson had two pints of the liquor on his person at the time with which he had said he was going to celebrate. Severe sentences are to be imposed on the gang all of whom are said to be implicated in sale of the stolen pre-Volstead stuff. Carmichael Runs Last Race Closing his track career at Jefferson High School by capturing the quarter mile in 51 2-5 seconds. Louie Carmichael led his team in piling up 51 points last week when they competed at Fremont. The colored star as usual won handily in every event in which he competed except the relay, when Clark of Fremont, having competed in fewer other trials was fresher and over took him on the last lap. Jim Purcell, Jefferson track coach is very sorry to lose the great little brown speedster, but Carmichael turns 21 in a few days, and Jefferson loses his services. Jim regrets not having him for the City Meet now here, when against so much opposition the best of individual material will be needed.

Miss Davies endows the character with a deft sympathy that makes you feel sorry for her, even while you are laughing at her consistent bungling and awkwardness. In directing the picture, which was adapted from the George S. Kaufman-Marc Connellly stage success, Duley King Vidor has treated his fartical subject ... a rare discernment of comedy values and has given the screen one of the finest comedies it has known. Elliott Nugent, erstwhile Broadway juvenile star plays opposite Miss Davies as the young man who wants to marry her, but finds it difficult to keep her from running and ruining his business affairs. Raymond Hackett, who won fame in the stage and screen versions of "The trial of Mary Dugan" plays the part of Miss Davies brother. Not the least of the comedy honors Bovard Field Records Established Saturday The following Bovard Field records were established 120-yard high hurdles, by Jeddy Welsh of the Trojans. Welsh defeated Pomeroy of the Club by four yards in 14 4-5 seconds. The former record of 15 seconds was held by Earl Thompson. Fred Kelly and Leighton Dye, three of the great hurdlers of all time.

William Holden is cast as the jewelry magnate whose business merger serves as a pivot for the plot, and Julia Faye plays the part of his romantically inclined wife, Sally Star is the daughter whose charms attract a vain scenarist, played by Franklin Pangborn. George Davis is the burglar-butter whose activities further involve Dulley's social ambitions. In adapting the play for the talking screen, Wanda Tuchook did so with an almost 100 per cent preservation of the original lines and situations. Some few changes were made to meet the demands of the screen and to give the picture the wiser latitude of action and freedom permitted by the camera. Edwin Justus Mayer did the dialogue. There is no original music in "Not so Dumb," but there is instead a medley of "Old timers" played on the piano by Stewart in an uproarious scene in which Pangborn delivers a "reading" of his latest scenario. The numbers run from Chopin's "Prelude" to "Singing in the Rain." Friday, April 11, 1930 Fox Carthay Circle Theatre Abe Lyman and his band which recently returned to Los Angeles after a triumphant season in London and Paris will be an added attraction when "All Quiet on the Western Front." Universal's spectacular production has it's world's premiere showing at the Fox Carthay Circle Theatre, Monday, April 21. Lyman and his Band are unquestionably one of the most popular musical organizations in Los Angeles theatrical history and they will offer a program appropriate for such a showing as "Al Iquiet on the Western Front." Meanwhile "Happy Days" first filmplay on Grangeur—wide film and wide screen—featuring a cast of nearly 100 stage and screen stars, is entering the sixth week of its showing at the Fox Carthay Circle and eliciting much praise from press and public. No longer is the only requirement of the theatre usher, a knowledge of seat locations and ability to wear an attractive costume. The usherette of today have brains as well as beauty and at Fox Carthay Circle Theatre, Los Angeles, Miss Artie Adams, director of 16 of the city's prettiest Misses has inaugurated a nightly study and recreational hour for-her aides. Each evening the usherettes assemble on the mezzanine floor and following a series of gymnastic exercises, they received instructions in 'tact', 'appearance' and 'courtsey' and then enter into discussions of pictures the theatre presents. Every Fox Carthay usherette has had to read the book "All Quiet on the Western Front" and pass an examination on the cast of the picture, production highlights, music and length of the film. Miss Adams has given instructions to more than 500 usherettes since becoming attache in Los Angeles several years ago.

Upton Page—Twelve PETER So the Golden State Life Insurance Company is going to advance another step forward and install a Broadcasting station, they say it will spread the gossip for two hundred miles that's not far enough; a good way to beat that distance would be to relay to Mrs. Bettie Hill, she in turn could tell it to them. Thousand women that belong to the women's Republican Study Club and you talk about broadcasting, "Why! there's no telling where it would end. RAILROAD CLATTER Mr. L. C. Diola suffered a painful automobile accident on the 31st of March at 7th and Central, and was taken to the Receiving Hospital for emergency treatment. And is now taking daily treatments at the Santa Fe hospital for injuries sustained. L. C. Diola recently bumped W. G. Henderson of the San Joaquin Parlor Caratter 11 straight years service on the Shore Line which has just been taken off. He is now slowly recovering of his home at 621+S. Santa Parkson Avenue. DRY AGENTS ARREST SIX *PULLMAN PORTERS Federal Prohibition agents seizing down upon the Southern Pacific spurial train in which 35 to 40 members of the Downtown Association returned last week from a tour of Mexico seized 42 bottles of liquor and arrested Six Pullman Porters. These specials into Mexico are not always what they are cracked up to be. Porters who are assigned to them take too many chances with the wet stuff, and the federal officers are beginning to get wise; However it is not altogether the porters fault, as very often he is persuaded to hide this forbidden goods in some of his lockers for passengers who have been exceptionally nice to him during the trip, but in so doing he lays himself liable, for as a rule the passenger never knows or wants to know anything about the stuff when it comes to show down and the porter is the goat, losing his job and in all probability paying a fine. If he does not have the money, he must serve time for his favor. One of the best things that Mr. O. W. Snoddy ever did in this district was to put a stop to the American Pullman Porters going on these specials to Old Mexico. He did the porters a big favor when he insisted on Mexican porters handling all specials touring Old Mexico. The many temptations to our porters after they cross the lane are subject to get them in bad while it is true that good money is generally realized on these trips very few of the boys get back on this side with more then they can carry. This order evidently has not gone in effect in San Francisco, for the above happening occurred in the northern city. LOS ANGELES CHAMBER OF COMMERCE GOOD WILL SPECIAL KETURNS A good will trade tour sponsored by The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce to Arizona has returned back to Los Angeles. Porters going on this trip reported a good break. Thomas Nash, Santa Fe Red Cap had charge of the parlor car which was carried the entire trip which lasted 8 days taking the following places, Barstow, all day in the Grand Canyon, Prescott, Jerome, Phoenix, Bisbee, Douglas, Lucson, Nogaias, Sonora, Mexico, Superton, Globe, Roosevelt Dam and back to Los Angeles. As a safety prevention to the passengers when the train was parked for the night they were requested to board the train by the rear entrance of the observation car as all other doors were kept closed. JOIN THE NAVY 10 hungry Pulkman Potters arrived in Frisco last week after training an assignment on a special train of broken United States sailors. The porters who were checking up their loss as a result of this break were as toiows E. A. Thompson, G. H. Dickson, Singleton, Burgess Kimbro, H. L. Simpson, J. Bein, Jr. H. Johnson and Reemond. The sailors took breakfast at Bakersfield, but the porters, ohl well, why bring that up. C. SMITH LOSES JOB IN AKOS. C. Smith, better known as (sleepy Smith) was dropped from the Puiwan pay roll of the Southern Pacific Yards. When interviewed by Asst. E. L. Arnaud, Smith stated that he was laid off for a short time on account or a slack in business, and when he returned to work found all the others had been re-employed and his name left off the list entirely. A number of Mexican help was employed however.

C. L. Luke one of the real sheiks of the gang at the S. P.

The Railroad Clater regrets very much the fact that circumstances and conditions has developed that will keep the writer, from publishing all the news in his possession this week but will give you all the latest news in next week's issue. J. CARTER BACK HOME FROM SAN DUGO J. Carter after successfully undergoing a serious operation at the government hospital is back home on E. 48th street resting up prior to returning to work. Carter looks a hundred per cent better then he did before he went away, and reports that he had wonderful treatment in the government hospital by all those whom he came in contact with. He say that they fed him chicken three times a day, and the only thing he regrets is the part of trying to get back to normal. PULLMAN PORTER HELD UP BY BANDIT D. Edwards, ex-pullman, porter was held up by a bandit last week, and suffered a cut hand as a result of a scuffle he had when he tied up with the thing. Edwaros claims that he gave a good account of himself and the bandit sold out after the going-became to tough. Edwards transferred here from Oakland, working a few months and then resigning. At present he is walking around with his arm in a sling. PASSENGER DIES ON TRAIN A lady passenger died enroute to Los Angeles last week, and was taken off the train at Kingman. Later on a relative reported the loss of a wrist watch. An investigation will be made. Mr. Lambert, relief Platform Agent will go on the road as a Pullman Conductor in the near future. Mr. Shulte is now being broken in as relief platform agent to succeed Mr. Lambert. The Porters will loose a good friend from-the office when they loose Mr. Lambert, as he always dealt on the square with every porter. He was a Square Shooter, and liked by all porters. THE FIRST NATIONAL MOVIE, SP THE first National Movie Special left L. A. March 30th at 3 P. M. loaded at Glendale and were off for Sonora, Calif. This location is being used by the various movie companies as a scene in Canada and they don't go wrong since this country is the identical. This Company is making a picture called "The Right Of Way," starring Conrad Nagel and Loreta Young. The little town of Sonora is in Toulmein County up in the hills away off of the S. P. on the Sierra R. R. approximately 80 miles from the town of Stockton, the population is about 500. But during the stay of this picture gang the town officials are taking a census and you can not biame them for taking advantage of the big opportunity that is placed in their hands at the present time. WHAT MR. WILLIAMS SAY Q F. P. P. B. A. AFAIRS During Mr. Williams visit to Los Angeles he spoke of their being $3.500 over-head expenses that the directors considered as being unnecessary, mainly that of issuing receipts to the porters for their quarterly payments. He said that the "Prudential Life Insurance Company" deducted the sum of two dollars a month each pay-day and never issued any receipt. So why should the P. P. B. A. be expected to bear that much extra expense when they could keep that money in their treasurer. He stated that the government, bonds valued at $50,000 were drawing good dividends and were not to be touched for anything but a crisis, the question of abolishing the issuing of receipts will be put before the different locals as soon as possible. PULLMAN COMPANY CUTS RATE ON LEBTH FARE Pulman Porters to Keep Benefit Good news for the Pullman Porters came upon them suddenly at a time when the worst depression in business in the history of the United States was being froced upon them. The announcement of the Pullman Co. that a reduction of 22 per cent in the rate charged for upper and lower berths occupied by one person will become effective May 1st. This is considered by the Pullman Porters to be a big factor in their favor. Ever since the war a surcharged levied on pullman berths has had a very decided effect upon the travel in pullman cars, many passengers quit riding pullman cars altogether and arranged their business as near as possible to take daylight trains, this had a tremendous effect upon the revenue of the pullman porter, again those passengers who did continue to patronize the pullman cars sought a way to offset the extra sur-charge by cutting on the porter. People who were in the habit of tipping freely cut down to a minimum, and many quit tipping entirely. CLOPTON EX-PORTER SELLS HOSIERI FOR COLUMBIA OUT- FITTING FIRM Clopton, now an ex-pullman porter of this district is now trying his skill in selling ladies hosiery for the Columbia Outturing Company. Clopton will be remembered for the sensational manner in which he left the Pullman Company just before Mr. Snoddy's departure on a vacation. WILLIAM GREEN PLEADS FOR HIGH WAGES On the 27th of March William Green, Pres. of the A. F. of Labor went before the president of this country and emphasized the need of more work, higher wages to insure a steady income to the laboring class, regarding these things essential to the modern American home. Among the laboring class, the enjoyment and the maintenance of the home and a home life depends on wages and salaries. An economic condition which employs the mother in mills and factories should be abolished, and one established which will permit the mother to live in the home to care for the home and protect the children in the home. HENRY ATER VISITS CITY Henry Ater, former Pulman Porter out of San Francisco was in this city last week. Ater transferred to the Chicago Northern district, and is now operating on the Los Angeles Limited. When Henry is in town he is a busy young man visiting his many friends. He still is able to produce harmony from his golden voice, and is much indemand among the younger set. INSPECTORS THICK AS FLIES "Whew! If you do not want to eat the ball it would be a good idea to remain at home. Inspectors have been as truss as ties during the past week, and are keeping their lead pencils working overtime. THE PAUL WHITMAN SPECIALS The Paul Whitman special left Los Angeles for San Francisco as the 2nd "Sunset Limited." This is considered by the porters who have hauled it before as a very good train, but the present extra gang who were assigned to it were singing the blues because they were under the impression that they had picked a lemon. "SUNSET PULLMAN MAIDS "TIL OUT QUOT HERE" One of the latest reports is to the effect that on or about 15th of the month all Pulman Mads now operating on the "Sunset Limited" between New Orleans and San Francisco will be cut out in Los Angeles instead of going through to Frisco as formerly this will be quite a blow to the maus who have their homes in San Francisco as they will never be able to reach home unless granted privilege of going home on a pass. The only thing that they can do if they wish to continue on this run is to change there headquarters to Los Angeles. WE COVER CALIFORNIA LIKE THE OCEAN BREEZE ARNAUDS THOUGHTS RED CAPS A T. B. Hospital situated here, but there is no invenood other than raining in this vicinity, naturally the railroad boys who are on this assignment are at a loss what to do.

The boys left with nothing and I am sorry to say returned the same way.

Joe Bailey In this one of machinery with its rush and careless disregard of human life the odds are very great against those that take a chance. Conservative statics show that one out of every ten deaths in the United States are the result or an accident, that 1500 accidents occur every day, and that automobiles alone kill more than 15,000 people each year. According to the National Health Council, sickness costs the people of this country $900,000,000 a year in lost wages alone, and that more people are kept idle by accidental injury than through lack of employment. The sole support of most wage earners and their families is their salary. The amount of that salary is the earning power of that individual, the most valuable asset that he or she possesses and under the modern scheme that asset is insurable. The Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company has Health and Accident Policies to cover you no matter what your occupation may be.

Their proposed silent parade ending up with a huge mass meeting at the Second Baptist church Sunday afternoon promises to make the welkin ring; lets all turn out therefore to this gathering on next Sunday and give our women a hand. DE PRIEST'S VICTORY- Information from Chicago is to the effect that Congressman Oscar DePriest came out victorious in his campaign for re-election to succeed himself in Congress from the First Illinois Congressional District. By right he should have had no opposition from his own party, for truly if ever an elective officer had made good, Oscar DePriest was that person. Therefore right has prevailed and all is well and the doughy Congressman can go forth to accomplish great things for all the people of his district and for the people of the United States. GRAFTERS AND PARASITES HARD HIT— Some persons who have heretofore existed and waxed fat from their supposed ability to control will be automatically closed. We make no accusations against any person whatsoever but if you hear loud protests, such will be a suspicious circumstance to locate the ones hardest hit. OLD-FASHIONED— The present prides itself on a preference for things new and novel, asserting a conscious independence of tradition and custom. To call a thing old-fashioned is the favorite condemnation of a period restless with yearning for change. It is a casual comment, easily made and needing little argument, on modes and manners whose chief offense is that they have already been tried and become familiar. This state of mind keeps stirring with novelty, entertaining, stimulating and often amusing. It does little damage, until it discredits old essentials for which no fit substitute is in sight. But the sense of difference between yesterday and tomorrow often loses sight of the distinction between old-fashioned fundamentals and yesterday's transient habits, no better and perhaps no worse than those on trial today. The modernist point of view is dangerously liable to dismiss, because outdated, things that are by no means outworn. The genuinely old-fashioned custom or code was fashioned long ago and survived much experience. It has survived because there it in it something universal, something indifferent to every generation's appetite for novelty. Its age and endurance are arguments on its side, and since it has grown slowly and lived long, it cannot be casually thrown away to make quick room for experiments. The demand for change must acknowledge this difference between what was yesterday's transient habit and the fundamental things that were fashioned of old. How many of us are sad victims of the habit of seeking "more." Says Ranulph Kingsley, writing in the New York Times: "Behind every hand of cards smiles an illusive, imaginary trick which can never be taken, yet a certain misguided type of player is always scheming, striving, straining after it. He feels he must always get just a little more out of everything than anyone else. Sometimes this continual overplay leads to a costly mistake. How many men in daily business are that way? They torture themselves and every one around them by constant forcing. Normal sales, normal profits, normal advantages, never satisfy them. Excited by continual acquisition, they keep pressing for 'More! More!' "The unhappiest man I know has an income of $250,000 a year. He always wants something. What hewants he doesn't know. More money, more power, more prestige, more social enjoyment. The real truth is that he doesn't want any specific material thing. But he has spent so many years battling for 'more' that 'more' has now become a complex. His tired, middle-aged brain is rigidly grooved with 'more.' It can't change and relax. This poor old man will probably die whispering, 'More!"—just like a dissatisfied child." BASEBALL The first robin comes as he pleases and not according to schedule. The crocus and dogwood, the pussywillows and the cowslips-wait for the warming sunshine of many days before assuring a waiting world that spring is here. But the baseball boys of the major leagues come back on time—the second Wednesday of April—and it is The Big Day. The country comes out of its hibernation and surveys with an appraising eye the signs and portents. The country adopts for the season a new language, strange to the eyes and ears of the unitiated, but eloquent and euphonious to the knowing. The school boys begins again to calculate in percentage and the dullest make themselves proficient. There are disputations without end or decisions about relative merits of teams and players. Babe Ruth reigns again in the hearts and minds of the young generation. But that is all on the academic side. Practically, the day means ushering in of the season out of doors of American youth, and there comes again to the seething surface the zest, the enthusiasms, the hopes, the faith of the boys and the youth in his own prowess. It's a great day! Pretty soon we shall have to dig out the last year's jokes on digging out last year's straw hat. In its day and age, "Why bring that up?" was a very good line, but why bring that up, still? Who can remember the old-fashioned taffeta petticoat that rustled like cornflakes pouring into a dish? There hasn't been another cry since as stirring as "Hold your houses, folks! The elephants are coming!" Possibly the height of humiliation would be to get stuck with the crossword puzzle in a tabloid newspaper. Orators used to refer to the powers of the press; now Washington refers to the press of the power trust. New York's new telephone directory is in five volumes. Imagine getting a wrong number that isn't even in the right book. In poker, the nearest equivalent to the seventh-inning is to get up and walk around the chair occasionally,y, to change the run of cards. If the eminent botanist is sound in his theory that vegetables think, we guess the cabbage would belong to the intellectuals, considering the equipment. Every tenth person of Sacramento's population is afflicted with "Neckitis." It is an aggravation of the upper vertebrae. The common term, known to laymen, as the "Rubberneck" For several days there has been a constant roar in the skies. One could see a tiny speck in the clouds. Then it would be augmented to a dozen or more. Dodging and darting here and there; thither and non; like a swarm of swift swallows... As the nose became plainer and the objects more distinct to the vision, it was seen that they were airplanes maneuvering in sham battle. There were Bombers; Scout planes; Pursuit planes, and all of the U: S. air force gathered from the four corners of Uncle Sam's domain in mobilization for air demonstration of their fitness for war service. Mather Field, the air base, resembles the period when it was teaching young Americans the art of flying prior to service overseas during the late World War. Then it was learning the fledglings how to use their wings. Now: To watch the daring stunts of the pilots who skim the clouds and vie with the eagle in swiftness of flight, or mock the gulls in grace, we know that the pinjons have strengthened and the wings have developed until American aviator stands without a peer. There is one regretable feature connected, and that is the absence of a Negro American among the army of pilots at the base. This column has long advocated that they take up aviation. We felt that the time would come when it would play an important part in the industrial and military life of the nation. At that time schools for the development of air pilots were not discriminating. Being a hazardous undertaking applicants were not plentiful. Now: When the hazard of flying has been reduced to a minimum and travel by air is as common as any other mode of transportation it becomes more difficult to learn the art through the licensed schools of aviation. The militant "Wet," former Senator James Reed, of Missouri, is still herding the hypocrisy of Prohibition. He agrees with a majority of the American people that the law as it stands is unenforceable. "The law is meant to protect people, radical "Wet" or the radical "Dry." Both are of the profess not to regulate them." There is nothing to be admired in the national class who make their living off the people who sympathise with one or the other side and are willing to donate money rather than enter into the turmoil of the battle. An infection of the mouth has become prevalent, and a diagnosis has attributed it to poison in the alcohol. No sane man or woman will deny that the bachanal orgies of the present are the worse in our national history. The speakeasies and hide-aways offer temptations which did not exist before the passing of the Volstead law. Persons who, before, would have scorned the idea of public and promicious drinking, now deem it smart to evade the law. Most deplorable of all is the hold it has taken on the youth of the nation. No social gathering of boys and girls is complete without the forbidden flask. The attempt to enforce the law by drastic measures does not meet with success. It is too dictatorial, and the American idea rebels at dictatorship. The increase in youthful criminals is lamentable. The hypocrisy bred; the pernicious results which are the off-spring of subterfuge; is undermining the health and morals of the notion. Temperance, through education, is the saviour. Ostracize socially the habitual drunkard, and there will be a reformation. Under the old regime in Germany if a license was given to sell hard drink that was all that he could sell, and patrons of his place were looked upon with disfavor. Beer was the national beverage. It was dispensed in the public gardens and in the open. When America had the saloon (Which will never return) few of any social standing, especially women, entered the portal. If the millions of dollars being now spent to try to enforce an unpopular law had been used to educate the nation in temperance, there would have been no need to outlaw alcohol as a beverage. Saloons would have disappeared for want of patrons. Politics in California is beginning to take concrete form. By the time this story goes to press it will be known definitely what the attitude of San Francisco's Mayor, Rolph, will be. From sources which have the information which they term authoritative, it is reported that has has made all arrangements for a strenuous campaign, and that undoubtedly he will enter the race for governor. It is reported that former governor, Friend Richardson has switched allegiance. That he deserted the political camp of former lieutenant governor Buron Fitts, and has moved bag and baggage over to the prospective camp of Mayor Rolph. It can not be argued with success that the former governor is much of a political asset to any candidate. His, "anybody or anything" attitude to defeat the present governor C. C. Young will not enhance the popularity of any candidate with the electorate. James Rolph, Jr., has made a splendid mayor of San Francisco. His tenure of office has been extended over a couple decades. C. C. Young has made an excellent governor for California, and electorate will see that he is returned to finish the elaborate programme of improvements started and which will be of a material benefit to every citizen of the Commonwealth. Very soon the national solons will be returning to their several bailiwicks to inform their constitutents of their stewardships and tell them why they should be returned. Some of them will return to Washington. Most of them will stay home. While the question of unemployment was begging for some solution to ameliorate the condition the Congress was either squabbling over the tariff or playing political football with Prohibition. The farm relief bill passed is but a makeshift, done to appease the clamor of the solons who had been elected on their promise to the farmers who demanded that legislation be enacted to relieve them from their financial dilemma. It was but a gesture and the board cerated by the act has been subjected to rabid criticism. Nationally, there is political unrest that bodes of no good to many who aspire to return to the lawmaking body of the nation. It is more than possible that the administration will be confronted with a majority not in sympathy with its party principle. The question of the moment in Illinois politics is; if Mrs. McCormick, congresswoman-at-large, defeats Senator Deneen at the primaries for the Republican nomination can she defeat J. Hamilton Lewis, Democrat, for the senatorial toga at the polls in November? It is impossible to determine the minds of the states. Don't believe that they will try it again soon. The average voter. They tried a couple women as governors of congresswomen have done fairly well. Whether they will try the experiment of a woman U. S. Senator remains to be seen. Mrs. McCormick has made a splendid campaign. Her slogan has been, "No Entangling Alliance." She has had some the better of Senator Deneen who favors the World Court. Governor Young has laid out a ten-year building program for the California State Fair. The project a $110,000 machinery building, which has been completed on $175,000 live stock pavilion, upon which work has started; $250,000 education and fine arts building, to be completed in 1933 and a $400,000 coliseum in the main live stock group in 1935. The State Fair, held annually in Sacramento, is fast developing to the status of an exposition. Last year it attracted display exhibits from several of the coast and mountain states. They have found it a splendid source from which to herald the rich resources of their states. It heralds to the world that the Pacific Coast and inter-Mountain States are the reservoirs of untold wealth and matchless opportunities. The California State Fair has been a potent contributor to the growth of the state. As usual the Negro voter has begun to assume his political energy. It happens every biennial and quadrenial. When the excitement is over he relapses into the apathetic condition of "Oh! What's the use! The slogan of 'Eternal Viglance' is forgot." His last stogie is gone up in smoke and his coffee and is not so sure. But some how or the other he will manage to live through his hibernation and come forth to pan-handle the unsuspecting candidate (who will place any credence in his claim that he "carries so many votes in his vest pocket." If there will be a little horse sense used candidates for the legislature can be elected that will vote for some enactments beneficial to all. For instance: There has been court decisions rendered inimical to the best interests of American citizenship. Such as that rendered affecting the ownership and occupation of property. Such decisions can be remedied only by effective legislation. Would it not be a good idea to sound out prospective candidates for the legislature as to the stand they would take on such a measure? Senator T. J. Walsh, Montana. Democrat: Will have as opponent for re-election, Albert J. Galen, Judge of the Montana Supreme Court, Republican. This will only interest former Montanans who have watched the political careers of men and known to them in days past. We who know U.S. District Judge George Bourquin are not astonished at the decisions made in his court. The Judge always hated hypocricy. Radical in his politics; he could have been often elected to office had he subordinated his opinions and took orders. Judge Galen is a Montana product, born, raised and educated in that state. Senator Walsh is of the old stock of Montanans. The race will be a pretty one. There is no telling how the political wind will blow. There has been no surety since the days of Tom Power; Wilbur Saunders and the old guard that used to hold the state in the Republican column. It may interest the friends of Garland Anderson, Négro playright of San Francisco, that his play act, "Appearances" has met with a favorable reception in London, England. While the criticisms have not been flattering, they have been fair. Not judged by the racial lineage of the author but by the merits of the play. That is all one could wish. To be judged by merit only. The critics have pointed out defects in the production and have credited the meritorious situations. The London critics point out certain crudeness in the construction which they have sportsmanship enough to attribute to lack of literary training. All in all; it is one of the fairest criticisms given the production. George Gregory who played center for the Columbit University basketball team was selected as center on the all-star five of the Eastern inter-collegiate league. For the past two years Gregory was elected captain of the Columbia University basketball team. They had been to view a picture travalogue and were giving their version of certain scenes depicted in the African jungles by the explorer. There was one where the degrees of intelligence and signs of advanced civilization was compared in the tribes of the jungle. One of the youngsters contended that civilization was not the outgrowth of contact but of mental evolution. Inheritance, he said, is a something hard t odefine. It sticks to people and things in some subconcious manner inexplainable. Now! See that dog over there on the lawn? He is about to lay down: Bet a package of cigarettes he turns around more than once before doing so." The dog did: "That's inheritance from the wild state when they would turn around and round to beat down the grass for a bed." The advanced civilized African tribes are the relics of some lost civilization. The Pygmies never had it. When the slave hunters brought slaves to America they had no trouble with the Pigmy type but when they advanced into the interior to capture slaves it was done after battle only. They were brought to America promiscuously. We know the results of cross breeding by the many colors termed Negroes. Pygmies; Zulus; nor any of the many tribes escaped htat cross blood. But there were certain things inherited that it will take generations to erudicate. We today have the Pigmy type. No matter how he is educated or trained he retains the subservient or "Uncle Tom" attitude of inferiority. Not so the men of the tribes who defended their homes and women from pillage and spoilage. They have retained that heritage. They are the upstanding men and women of today's Negro. Yes; Heritage is a great thing." And with a look toward one of the listners he picked up his book and hied away. SELAH. Friday, April 11, 1930 BY THE DEACON Economic Independence Many sermons have been preached, And many prayers have been said. But economic independence Has refused to how its head. We rant about economic slavery, And on independence do dwell; But the cause of our poverty Lies largely within ourselves. One man making Ten Dollars per day Is always seeking a loan; Another man on Five Dollars per, Has bought himself a home. Those two men have families, Of about the same size; The first man is extravagant, But the second did economize. There are men in public office, Working regularly every day. Making Two Hundred Dollars per month, But their debts they cannot pay. They purchase useless jewelry, On the monthly instalment plan; While the clothes they wear, Belong to another man. These ne'er do wells are always broke, They never will succeed; While they buy things they do not want, And get credit for what they need. The poor man with a diamond ring, Is at an economic loss; Like a Hundred Dollar saddle, On a Twenty Dollar Horse. Two men are running grocery stores Selling goods of the same grade; The one that sells the cheapest, Is sure to get the trade. The good housewife is ever alert, And exercises economic care; To help her toiling husband, The burdens of life to bear. No reasonable amount of money Will satisfy a spenothritis taste. For he will spend all he makes, And his spending is marked with waste. Some men on Two Hundred Dollars per month Are broke before they get started; You know the Good Book says, "A fool and his money are soon parted." If we manage with frugality, The money that two make, Within the next five years, We will have a respectable stake. If we invest our money, In horses and in land. Then we will have a place To take an independent stand. The man that owns no property, And pays no taxes to the State. Should economize and memo his ways Before it is too late. The jewel of economic independence Is in your hands and mind; Grasp it and hold it fast. And economic independence you will find. ON THE SIDE WALK GOD IS NOT DEAD. HE lives and moves in the hearts of men today as he die nineteen hundred and thirty years ago when he made his triumphant march through the earth; and the people still hear his voice crying cut for righteousness in all walks of life, and they will stand back of Buron Fitts and all men who stand for cleaner and better conditions in church and state in our land and our country. AN OKLAHOMA DAILY NEWS-PAPER calls attention to and in brief reviews the history of Clarence Griffin, whom it claims has been scrubbing floors for the last seven years and is still scrubbing, but is one of the outstanding song writers of today. It even goes further than this and in no uncertain plea, asks for a break for the Negro scrubber-song-writer. DR. PICKENS before the local branch of the National Association Sunday afternoon at the A. M. E. Zion church. Pico and Paloma, brought out the fact that Los Angeles in the way of getting breaks in residential segregation before the courts is not as well off as W. Virginia, for said he "I do, not know if any of the courts that decided the recent case here in L. A., where the decision was given that a colored woman was told that she could not occupy her own property for ninety-nine years, were membres of the Ku Klux Klan or not, but I do know that in West Virginia the supreme court decided a similar case according to common sense. When a case like that came before the supreme court of West Virginia, they decided that any court limitation on the sale of property to a group of people was invalid in that state forever, because it lowered the value and meaning of property." Mr. Pickens concluded this part of his speech by saying that we must cease our efforts until we get a case of residential segregation before the supreme court of the United States and find out whether American citizens, because they happen to belong to a certain race, can be deprived of the most sacred place on this earth—their home. ```markdown ``` (By: CARL ECHOLS) "DEAN WILLIAM PICKENS TO APPEAR IN PASADENA UN- DER AUSPICES OF PASA- DENA'S N. A. A. C. P." William Pickens, educator, author, lecturer and contributing editor is slated to speak in Pasadena on the 10th and 11th of April inclusive. In his lecture tours throughout the U. S. Mr. Pickens has appeared in Pasadena on previous occasions. Those who have heard this internationally famed orator are always happy to know of his return to our city. At meeting under the auspices of the Pasacena N. A. A. C. P. Branch, held at the First A. M. E. Church corner Vernon Ave. and Kensington Pl Friday evening. April 11th. Mr. Pickens will be main speaker. Officials of the local N. A. A. C. P. branch do not have at hand the concise wording of Mr. Pickens subjects for Friday evening; but it is generally expected that much of his address will deal with present and future activities affecting a minority group in America. There will be some effort made by the committee in charge of Mr. Pickens engagements in our city to have him speak to some of our service clubs at their mid-day sessions, or afternoon programs. If you are interested in yourself and your community you should by all means hear William Pickens's address on Friday evening. April 11th 8:15 P. M. at The First A. M. E. Church. cor. Vernon Ave. and Kensington Place. Pasadena. INTER-RACIAL FORUM Mr. Henry Shimonouchi addressed the inter-racial at the library Sunday afternoon. His subject was: "How Japan can help in creating world friendship," one could not but admire the masterly presentation by this young Japanese. Mr. Shimonouchi is student of Oceedental and joint editor with his father of the Japanese American Newspaper of Los Angeles. The third Sunday, Mr. Tho Chow Woo, graduate cheinist of Cal Tech, will speak on China and the three principles of Sun Yat Sen. There will also be Chinese music played on native instruments by real Chineses. Remember the date, the third Sunday in April from 2-5 P. M. OBITUARY Mrs. Mildred Newman was born in Zanewille, Ohio; the daughter of Wallace and Winfred Briggs and spent the early part of her life at that place. Later, she spent several years in the State of Michigan at Battle Creek an Grand Rapids, where many of her relatives are located.

Dr. King will be the speaker and his choir will sing. We deeply regret that the Coming Defeat of the Men should so depress their leader. Rev. Prince that he was too ill to be with us or last Sunday. However as there is nothing we can do about the matter othan than say. "Be brave and take your medicine. The Women must win even though it hurts." The Juniors are all talking of the wonderful time they had at the Birdie Brown Banquet. I come to you with just a few thoughts for you to ponder. Sickness is discouraging, and is hard to bear. But we should remember that doing the will of God is always the noblest holiest thing we can do any hour, however hard it may be for us. If we are called to suffer, let us suffer patiently and sweetly. Under all our sharp trials let us keep in our hearts the peace of God. Under the snows of suffering let us cherish the fairest gentlest growths of spiritual life. The outward man may indeed decay but the inward man will be renewed day by day. Friendship Baptist—Rev. W.

If You Fail To Read----THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE----You May Never Know It Happened Political Pot Pie Benjamin Wesley Ingram of San Bernardino only a few days ago received the endorsement of the Southern California County's Republican Committees held in Riverside for President Hoover to appoint him as Register of the Treasury. We want to say if there is a reward for entergetic effort and going after things. Ingram is certainly entitled to this job. He has worked unceasingly for many moons. He has contacts from the Mississippi on the East to the Pacific Coast and from the Gulf of Mexico to Vancouver. He made such an impression by his political showing in Washington that they comenced to look around to find out just who this man Ingram was. They found him—and in doing so they found an ordinary anointentations young fellow, but one who had gained for himself in the community in which he lives, the respect and high regard of all the people regardless of race. A man of honor and integrity. They also found a man of exceptional ability who is daily demonstrating his genius and one who has even by his endeavor attracted the attention of political leaders all over the land. Sure give it to Ingram, his valiant fight qualifies him as the one who should either receive the registry job or its equivealant. VAMPING THE CANDIDATES Political vampires are working overtime right now, trying to reach out their slimy tecnacles and blood suck the various candidates for political preferment. This species resort to all sorts of tricks and devices to get the ear and confidence of their intended victim and then proceed to trim fim just as neatly as it is possible to do. They even get others to go in first and prepare for the vampires coming, telling the candidate or his representative just how great a man he has coming to see him. However you will have to give it to the California Office seekers, for they have only been guillible to a certain extent, in other words only in a small way, for we is known to be wise enough to get the vampires number and then hang up the sign nothing doing. Alston's Clearing House will put on guessing contest during the next ten days; to find out who can come the nearest one to guessing how many candidates will enter the race for Assemblyman grow the 67th assembly district. This is much necessary from the faet there appears to be so many hide and seek contenders. One day they are running and the next day they are not. The Clearing House is going to try to get the low down from all sides. Sheriff W. I. Tracger has returned to his office after a much needed rest.

BEAU-BRUMMEL BOYS Hats off to the Beau-Brummel boys, evidently they alive taken on a new determination to conduct their meetings exceedingly harmoniously and show a deeper interest in the general welfare of the Club. This was thoroughly proven at our last meeting held at the residence of Mr. Jewel Tuggle, who entertained the boys very elaborately serving a complete Spanish dinner which was as delicious as any Spanish Seniorita could have made it. Although the Beau-Brummel Club is a social club, it doesn't confine its discussions to social life alone. This was made evident in a brief talk made by the Secretary, Mr. J. M. Stewart, who said in part, "each one of us prove by our regular attendance that we are deeply interested in social life. But, if we contine our activities to social life alone we are making a great mistake. It is time that we make a start to help our race leaders lift us out of this rut of inferiority." This talk met with the hearty approval of all, and we expect more talks plus action in the future. Keep the good work up. Beau-Brummels. The names of Messrs. Clifton, Gatlin and Geo. Houston were presented as new applicants to the Club. All indications point to the acceptance of these gentlemen which will complete our membership and will also mean more power to the Beau-Brummel Club. Mrs. John W. Coleman wife of the well known John W. Coleman, made a flying trip from their home and summer resort in Elsinore this week to be at the bedside of her husband.

News has just reached us that Mr. Eddie Darden, locally well known as a boxer passed away suddenly in Washington. D. C. He was a member of the "Meadowbrook Club." SPOTLIGHT BY BILL EDWARDS "Turn on the heat" so the song writers say, so we'll sing our little song; "Turn on the Light." Spotting the recent dancing "free-bees" we find one Marie Rout, popular sub-dub around town, strong on Englishmen. Preferably those that tickle the ivories (whoa, now, we mean plano keys.) Swinging from London we spot Clyde Thompson at Berkeley, Calif., "doing the Racoon." (Clyde has the college town by the neck (as to his necking properties "don't esk") Down to Los Angeles we see Eunia Brown, that tansalizing thing from Lincoln Heights, teaching a class of sixteen men (can you beat it) in the "womanly art" of the use of electric cooking appliances. Maybe the Power and Light Company will lower the rates. Horace doesn't like her job, wonder why? Can't be jealous? Think so? In the same vicinity we lit up Victoria Jones who has taken in her "For Rept" sign. The new tenant seems to like her "stall." Now ladies and gentlemen (college men included) we are on the scent of a real "scoop" for which the Eagle is famous. A demure lassie who claims to have outwitted the best efforts of all "news hounds" as to her nocturnal and daylight "creeps" is on the "spot" and take it from us it is a hot one. Nettie, who beside being an expert massure at Yernon and Central, entertains the patients of Drs. Hatcher and Humphrey. She has another in particular who she is entertaining, and in a very short time will be disclosed thru this column. "Ya ain't sore, uh, Miss Gresham?" The strutter, Tom Southern has taken up a new racket now and witch him go. This time he is out to tell you that you are Habile to break your leg so if you don't let him "write you up" some Golden State Insurance you will be just out there. Ladies, watch your "hearts," men your "bucks." The Kargas are off on their "guide right" movement. An unusual inspirational event, to encourage the months of the city to take advantage of higher education. They have a full program of historical, economic and musical feature for Afrangelenos so watch for the date. Again, we have Miss Grace Harris, the A K. A. sweetheart. The little girl calls us on the car for saying that she has a "For Rent" sign on, Beg pardon. Miss but the "gels" around this town have such a "rapid turnover" that it's hard to keep up with their new headaches. Focusing on the Delta's we find plenty of talent for the stage and screen. In case you doubt our statement drop in Friday night at the Masonic and witness their rejuvenation in conjunction with the scholarships dance. (Note Hallie Mae, Florence Thompson and Mary Jane Clark.) The Antique Art "click" really "broke 'em down" at the Pex last Tuesday and there wasn't a disappointed person in the house (that is as far as the entertainment is concerned.) Wonder how Ellis Salisbury and Peta are doing? so inquires the Biggler. The Daine Athletic club again, sends forth a challenge to ANY girls' or women's basketball team to meet them on the court. No replies are forth coming, they will challenge the men, and say won't that be a "Birty." The Paudora Athenians, the new aggregation of beautiful Greek women sponsored by the "Holy Trio" includes the following: President, Adele Chilton, secretary, Evelyn Kennedy; vice president, Adele Williams; treasurer, Irma Edwards, Mayme (Dimples) Collins, Mary Yearson. There's plenty of enticing things from them in the offering. Pickett will pick them. this time Eugene hes what he calls, a Santa Monica "Peach" known to others as Warthia. Will wonders never cease? Ruth Harrison has christened her home—"Baby Blittmore." The reason so says the Biggler, being that so many of the elite stop at her home. For the past two Sundays there's been many Duchess and Dukes registered in the social blue book. Speaking of Blue Books, this column is now compiling the "New 1930-31 Social Blue Book. Where do you rank? LADIES PLEASURE CLUB The Ladies Pleasure Club, met with Mrs. L. Jones. Miss Beatty the Pres., in chair. This being business night, the ladies planned to have a gingham dress dance soon. Time and place to be announced later. Mrs. Keel next meeting place. Whitaker Trip Postponed: National Bar Address Cancelled On inquest duty this week, and on night court duty next week, and press-ed by important local week-end activities, Legon Whitaker has been forced to postpone his Oakland trip, ano to cance his address before the National Bar Association in the northern city. The address was scheduled, upon the Association's telegraphed invitation, for Sunday, April 13. Whitaker states, "As much as I appreciates the invitation of the National Bar events, occurring since my acceptance of it, make the one-day round trip flight, address, and so forth, impractical. I don't want to do anything that will prevent my giving my best energy, pep, and efficiency to my new employment." HAVE YOU PAID YOUR SUBSCRIPTION?

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE One Year $2.00 Six Months $1.20 Three Months $1.75 Per Copy $0.05 EXHAIR Noah D. Thompson of New York formerly citizen of our own hustling and fast growing home town, Los Angeles, who started out some years ago to have the daily publications, in using the word Nigro, treat it as proper instead of a common noun, has lived to see the rewards of his efforts. The Evening Express, with which he was then associated was the first, in our city, due to his efforts to order its employees to capitalize the word. Today a survey by the N. A. A. C. P. and others shows that there is an overwhelming majority of dailies through-out the country using the capital "N". Thanks, N. D. big, things have small beginnings. A handful of ushers exclusive of us personally mustered courage enough a month or two ago to parade up to the manager of one or two of our largest open air markets that are re- ```markdown ``` ceiving all the Negro's money in return for ordinary service on the Ave., and consulted them about employing colored. Looks like where, the trade was 85 per cent colored that they would not object to employing colored clerks to wait upon colored trade. Well any way one or two; places have hired a Negro a piece and put them in conspicious places as sort of an advertisement to let their Negro patrons know that in return for 15 or 20 thousand dollars a month business, they appreciate same to the extent they are willing to give one poor colored boy a $75 or $100 job plus a write up in the paper. Looks like we colored toks are either easily fooled or easily pleased. Don't know which. Los Angeles has graced with the presence of Mr. Houston who is one of Baker-field's most progressive business Negroes motored to our city with his two sons who are in route to Redlands where they are attending the University. He returned home in the evening. Dean Fackens of the N. A. A. C. P. lit in town and spoke last Sunday at Zion A. M. E. Church. As usual he did a good job and about 400 colored toks got some good advice. A governor, a lieutenant governor and a corporation commissioner are latest names to be publicly added to the Julian oil scandal. The undergrowth information bureau has had them connected for some time to the industry. Too bad the spot light had to be focused on them in April instead of September. The economic interest of the railroad boys as related to those employees who have wives, children and sweet-hearts belonging to our group is pretty well covered by our newspaper associate, Charles Upton in his "Railroad clatter." However we are stepping into his department momentarily to compliment up P. dining car department chauging its service which has caused three of its old efficient employees on the lark, which plys between herg and Frisco to lose out. The Filipino has once again made further intoxages into the economic life of the race, having been employed in the place of colored boys. Looks like step by step we are being gradually forced down the grade of progress. In the anxiety to render cheap service the S. P. is now employing these foreigners because their un-American standard of living permits them to live cheaper. Capital with its invested millions has no respect for the flag or the American citizen when they demand the right to exert living wages in re- LONDON NAVAL CONFERENCE EXPOSES RIVALRIES OF IMPERIALIST BAN- LONDON. APRIL 11 (CNA) There is no five-Power conference. All attempts of the imperialist bandit powers to come to "agreement" for increased war armaments was smashed on the rock of growing imperialist rivalries. McDonald and Stimson are hanging on in order to attempt to fool the masses as to the real; of the race-for armaments meet when it first convene turn for their defense of American interest in time of war. Sooner or later the S. P. like offer business concerns that reap profits of six or eight million annually. on their invested capital is going to learn that it is pretty hard to get efficient help to work for unbelievable salaries and depend on the traveling public to make up in the lines of tips the amount it costs to maintain efficient up to snuff help. We concede the fact that the protrait is in freight transportation, also the fact that the stage lines and aerial plane travel is causing passenger service to suffer still that sixty years' experience should be enough to satify the S. P. or any other concern that they should cease making the Negro waiter and porter the goat by bringing foreign emigrants into the country specifically for the purpose of employing them to lower American living standards so that they may increase their already annually huge profits of a few million. We met Miss Gladys Harris just the other day. This is the young lady connected with the Juevenile Department. We have known her for a number of years and wish to say, she has more than made gooo and her ability demonstrates the fact that complexion in some instances is no barrier to one's progress.

Mass Meeting Planned—Prominent Citizens to Take Part—Local Offices to Move—Mrs. Barr Praised. Plans have been approved for the Vocational Opportunity Campaign to be conducted by the Los Angeles Urban League during the week of April 20th 27th according to an annotuction issued by Mr. Louis S. Tenteet, acting executive secretary. The purpose of the campaign, which is being put on throughout the country upon the employers of the city the necessity that all citizens receive a fair share of employment; and, again to dispel the fallacious belief that Negroes are incapable of occupying a place in our modern industrial system. MASS MEETING APRIL 27th It is planned to conclude the activities of the week on April 27th with a big mass meeting, to which will be invited state, county, and city officials as well as industrial leaders. Information. Yesterday in the House of Commons, Commander J. M. Kenworthy, one of MacDonald's collaborator's blurted out "The conference is a terrible failure. It would be better to close up the conference now." All imperialist powers are rapidly pushing their naval war building programme in fact, this was never interrupted by the quarrelling and quibblings at the Five-Power meet. Today the House of Commons passed an increase air-force budget as part of the general war preparations of British imperialism. The estimates approved provide for an expenditure of $89,250,000 for naval craft alone. While MacDonald spouts peace, he does not hesitate to act for war by giving the imperialists money to build their war machines. In the United States, work is rapidly proceeding on the ten 10,000 ten cruisers, several of which will be launched soon. French imperialism is rapidly carrying out its naval war building program, nor are the Italian and Japanese capitalists backward in this respect. While the conference is closed, maneuvers go on privately. That war maneuvers against the Soviet Union form the chief topic of conversation at those secret and private informal meetings of the imperialists bandits is beyond question. This is a fact that the boss press tries to keep as quiet as possible. ```markdown ``` ion about the Vocational Campaign may be obtained from the Urban League offices. Assemblyman Fredick M. Roberts will be general chairman of the campaign and the leaders of our church, fraternal, and civic organizations will occupy sub-airmanship of major committees. The offices of the Los Angeles Urban League will shortly be moved to 2504 Central Avenue from their present location in the Bldggett building. This move, it is believed, will result in greater efficiency in the service of its clients. BOARD OF DIRECTORS LAUDS MRS.

MILLARD JOHNSON THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE MAGAZINE SECTION Friday, April 11, 1930 Central Ave. Gardens In Big Turn On Light Celebration Last week was a memorable one in the history of Central Avenue Gardens and it ended with a grand celebration Saturday night with the turning on of the Street Lights. Thursday evening, April 3 was the end of the Popularity contest. This contest was held to find the most popular girl in the Gardens, and she would have the honor of pulling the switch to turn on the lights. A meeting was held Mt. Olive Baptist Church and previous to the naming of the winner, a program was rendered under the direction of Mrs. Clemmie Robinson. The meeting was opened with the audience singing America. Invocation by Rev. J. Spencer; instrumental duet by the Misses Mqraine and Mary Jackson. Reading by Mrs. Pearl Moulder. Vocal Solo by Mrs. Emodra Polk. accompanied by Mrs. Irma Mackey. Saxophone Solo, Mr. Carl Jefferson, accompanied by his twin sister. Miss Katherine Jefferson. Flute Solo by Mr. Wilbur Dyson reading from Dunbar by Mrs. Sarah Smith. Mr. Banks of the Eastside Reality Co. was present and was introduced to the audience by Mr. J. Woods. Mr. Banks gave a talk on the history of Central Ave Gardens. He told how that in 1922 a white company tried to subdivide this location for white people, but could not make a success of it so Mr. C. W. Ruggles, another white man heard of it and bought up all the titles. He then approached the members of the Eastside Reality Co. and hold them that he had an ideal location to subdivide and did they think that they could sell it to colored people THE BIRD OF THE WORLD they came out and looked it over and considered it a "God-send" because it was just what the colored people needed. Negotiations were then gone thru' and the tract was put on the market for our people it sold rapidly, in spite of theatrs made the white residents in the district that they would never allow this to become a colored settlement. Streets and sidewalks were put in, with Gas, Water and liigs and one by one the purchasers of lots began to build on them until it has grown into the beautiful settlement that it is today. To impress the audience with the difference of Central Ave. Gardens in 1922, and now, Mr. Banks exhibited a photograph of the location taken when he first viewed it. It was nothing but a large Japanese vegetable-garden and on viewing the picture one could hardly believe that this was the same location that is the Central Ave. Gardens of to-day. After Mr. Banks talk, remarks were made by Rev. E. L. Green, organizer and father of the celebration plans. He introduced his committee of citizens who were working with him to make the event a success. They were Mr. Geo. Thompson, chairman; Dr. Ruth Wade, Secy.; Mr. J. Wood, chairman platform committee; Mrs. Cochran, chairman finance, committee. The girls in the contest were asked to retire to anti-room with this committee and make their report. There was much excitement in the air because there was keen competition between the girls and everyone was anxious to see who would be the lucky winner. After a wait of about 20 minutes the girls and the committee returned to the auditorium and Mrs. Cockerel read the report to the eager audience. The winner were Miss K. Jefferson 263 Votes; 2nd Miss Clarisse Williams 135 votes; 3rd Miss Moraine Jackson 123 votes. Pandemonium broke in the audience when the results were read and it was restored. Miss Jefferson was presented with a banner bearing the word "Victory." She was also the recipient of a beautiful pearl necklace and a gorgeous bouquet of flowers presented by Mrs. Gussie Green, who made a short speech congratulating Mis Jefferson on her victory. Miss Clarisse Williams the second prize winner received a pennant bearing the word "Honor". She also received a vanity set of hand tooled leather. Rev. Green on presenting the prizes 10 Miss Williams told her that she would have the honor of being the Mistress of ceremonies at the celebration on Saturday night. April 5. Miss Moraine Jackson the third winner was presented with a long string of indestructable pearls. There were five girls in the contest; they sold votes at 10 cents each and through their efforts the sum of more than $65 was raised. This money went toward the expense of the celebration held Sat. night. The conclusion of the awarding of the prizes, the meeting was adjourned and every one went home to await the celebration of Sat. Night. Saturday night, April 5, was indeed a gala night. A platform had been erected at the corner of 94th and Zamora Streets and there the Southern California Edison had co-operated with the committee and installed a switch that the whole new system of lights could be turned on. Booths had been erected on the grounds surround the platform and the whole place carried the spirit of a carnival. At an early hour, an orchestra under the direction of young, Mr. Walter Williams, serenaded the Gardens with sweet strains of music. At nine o'clock the gathering was called to order by Rev. Green and a short program was gone through. The "Star Spangle Banner" was sung by the audience led by N. L. Montgomery. Invocation—Rev. E. L. Green. Introduction of Mistress of Ceremonies. Miss Clarisse Williams by Rev. James Spencer. Piano Solo. Mrs. Eva Payne. Introduction of Deputy District Atty. Leon Whitaker. Mrs. C. A. Bass, who made a very interesting speech.

After the introduction the Queen of the evening, Miss Jefferson pulled the switch that lighted the Gardens, amid great helplarity and rejoicing. The orchestra played for a street dance for all who wished to take part, and continued until a late hour. This event changed Central Ave. Gardens from a sleepy little village to a brightly illuminated sub-division. This event will long be remembered by the 500 or more people who were present. Friday evening, April 4, a banquet was tendered to the pastor of Mt. Olive Baptist Church. Rev. James Spencer by the members of the church and the following program was rendered: Mistress of Ceremonies—Mrs. Eva Payne. Welcome Address—Mrs. Sarah Smith Vocal Solo. Mrs. Ivory Williams Reading.

On Wednesday morning the Criterion Theatre started out to please the tens of thousands who missed "The Phantom of the Opera" by offering the new talking version of the famous Lon Chaney picture. If You Fail To Read--THE CALIFORNJA EAGLE--You May Never Know It Happened One of the outstanding features scheduled for the Easter season in California will be concert and recital on the evening of April 21, at the Veterans' Memorial Hall in Oakland under the auspices of the American Legion. Colonel Young Post No. 269 for the purpose of establishing two scholarships for observing colored students at the University of California. Clarence E. Muse of the Fox Motion Picture Studio will appear in song recital and dramatic readings. Mr. Muse has a rich baritone voice which has won him fame and renown both in this country and abroad. His ability as an actor is also well established. Most all remember him as Old Napus in "Hearts in Dixie" and as Dr. Jekel and Mr. Hyde with the Quality Amusement Stock Company some ten years back. Despite this years of experience as a concert artist and dramatist, Mr. Muse is a newcomer in the motion picture first picture. Many declare that effort alone was sufficient to predict for him a long and successful career on the screen. Just now he is making three pictures that should be released in the near future. As a special added attraction for this occasion the well known and universal tap dancing favorite, Bill Robinson will appear in a series of new difficult steps. Mr. Robinson is in no sense a stranger in these parts but he is always interesting and entertaining. No less a critic than O. O. McIntyre declares Bill the king of all tap dancers. The Sax Sexias Orchestra will furnish music for the dance and reception following the concert. All in all this benefit attraction should be one of the biggest events of its kind to be held in the East Bay Region and deserves the support of all who believe in its purposes: the establishment of two scholarships for deserving Colored Students at the University of California.

Stamford, Coin, April 8. (CNA) A protest meeting held Sunday, attended by many Negro and white workers protested against the arrest and persecution of five workers jailed here for their activities in the March 6th unemployed demonstration. One of the five is Herbert Newton, field organizer of the American Negro Labor Congress. J. Louis Engdahl, general secretary of the International Labor Defense, pointed out the attempts of the bosses to railroad the delegation representing 110,000 New York workers. The case of the five Stamford workers comes up Thursday, and a demonstration is planned for the court room. W (To my little Sister, aged four) Dear little sister, how are you? I hope you're well and happy too. I've missed you since you went away. I hope to see you soon, some day. I guess you know I love you well I wish that you were where I dwell. You're such a pleasant little chill. With such a sunny little smile. Your mother keeps you clean and neat. Your disposition is so sweet. I'd like to have you for my own A selfish wish—I should have known. I may not live to see you grow To womanhood and I don't know. The lines may some how guide you on To higher things when I am gone. You cannot understand I'm sure The words which are a bit mature; But it may comfort you my dear To read them in some future year If you should come to the road I've troad. Just keep a cool and level head; If you would keep that smile serene, Pray-keep your mind and body clean. I'd like to have you always close. To shield you from 180's stinging I've never seen you, but your verse, Four summers and four winters gone I have perished on land You wrote of goblins, pets and flowers; Your rhymes with childish prattle rite. Of whispering winds, and laughing showers; But not one word, one word of Life. So I have pictured you a child. But now you must be growing up. For your last poem sweetly mild Breathes nectar from Life's deeper cup. You tell of Love.—Ah, one must know Love, Hatred, Joy, Grief, Passion, Hope, Despair, Ambition, Spiritual glow. Impiety with Thoughts to Cope. Thoughts move the pen and thoughts are things; The Soul, a canvas; Life, the brush One may then don Pegasus wings. With clear notes of warbling thrush. Life is a harp with myraid chords The more of strings our gamut runs; The more of truth its tone affords; The more of light, from stars and suns. BOOK NOTES Among The Magazines Every California man should read Ernest Elmo Calkins in the February number of the Atlantic Monthly, surveying the golden state and finding it good. Here is no carping criticism (a little tolerant amusement, perhaps, at our outdoor ways) but on the whole, a healthy enthusiasm that will probably bring Mr. Calkins back for a longer visit. "Something in the environment," writes Mr. Calkins. "This given these people a complacent patriotism and a courtesy toward visitors from less favored spots, that is found nowhere else in the United States. Every inhabitant has taken an oath, that no visitor shall be repulsed—Hospitality is a civic cult. "In the towns, the fruit and flower stands give the streets an air of gaiety the year round. You drive the nose of your car right up to the counter You may deplore the California's attitude; you may think that he boasts too much, that he talks like a prospector, but you must admit that he has the goods." Mr. Calkins even likes our advertising statuary, but of course, those who have enjoyed his hooks "Business the Civilize" know that advertising to Ernest Elmo Calkins is the staff of life. Every American will enjoy "Hoover Versus the Economics of Despair" in the January number of the Review, with the optimistic prophecies of two economists on the outcome of the president's leadership of big business in this financial crisis. "This is the first time that the forces of any nation have been marshalled against the Economics of Despair. There is statistical basis for believing that this expedition will prevent a major depression." It is pointed out that heretofore, the cycle of business depression has been accepted as inevitable, but that now, an organized and concerted effort is being made to avert such a condition.

The house was filled to overflowing and intthisism ran high as the representatives of the different schools vided with each other to win the cup. Nine High schools took part in the A DISILLUSIONED SOUTHERNER (By: GARL ECHOLS) Have just visited a colored gentleman right from the South. The man spent his life there. After finishing school he taught. Finally he worked up to an executive position of no little importance. Down in Dixie he was told that the West is Gods own place and California His footstool. Needless to say, when he left the land "bebing the sun" he was begged with illusions of every sort about the great things the Negroes were doing out West. Well. I wouldn't have felt so ill toward him if he headn't ask me for the statistics of Negro enterprise out here. He told me that we were a joke when it came to being compared with the South. I was dumbbounded. But I soon rallied and told him of our boot-black stands, barber shops and poolrooms. I didn't go over so good, however, and hang my head in silence as he gave me a bit of his mind about so-called progressive Negro of the West. It dawning me that the man denunciations smacked of much truth. In my imagination I mounted a advantage ground and casually surveyed the surroundings looking for Negro business. Negro leadership My observations were almost in vain The Professor compared us to a fly that perched on the wheel of a chariot. The Chariot stirred up a deal of dust and the fly was silly enough to think that he was helping to stir up the dust. The white man is the wheel of progress and the Negro is the little insect that sits on the hub buzzing "ain't we doing things?" After all, just how progressive our we proud westerners? I wonder how do we compare with the South? Get in the Parade and Make Demonstration As has been previously announced in these columns, every club, organization and representative Negro business is asked to take part in the parade. Many of the cars will carry small banners bearing economic slogans.

Mr. Brown then rescribed the first-class and sealed letter service of the department as the basis of all its work and pointed out that while there had been several increases in the rates for second and third class mail, and for parcel post matter, there had not been an increase, except during the war emergency period, for first-class matter since 1885. "If the rate charged had increased in the same manner that the cost of service has, the present rate for first-class matter would be 3 1/2 cents an ounce and seven cents for letters," he explained. "Although we have not completed our survey of the matter, it is believed by postal officials that an increase of oe-half cent in the first-class rate will serve to destroy the mounting deficit of the department.

This drama is billed for the evening of the 17th inst and promises to be the main event of the season featuring the very best talent of Phillips Temple. At 6:30 P. M.

WEEKLY CLASS SCHEDULE Monday If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened The Weekly Events At Phillips Temple C. M. E. Church The Weekly Events At Phillips Temple C. M. E. Church By: J. M. STEWART Phillips Temple, knows no better way of gaining the friendship of the people of Los Angeles, than through the pages of the California Eagle. The Eagle has always played a major role in making acquaintances and friends to ministers who find it necessary to take up their tasks as messengers for the Master in the city of Los Angeles. Reverend G. N. Humphreys, who has been a very successful pastor throughout the south and east, and, who by request of the Bishop, made somewhat of a sacrifice in leaving a live, progressive church in the city of Atlanta, Ga., to come to this city and take on the great, responsibility of leading the flock of Phillips Temple. Reverend R. W. Underwood who has toiled carnestly in this field for the past seven years has been elevated to the place of Presiding Elder of the Los Angeles District. Rev. Humphreys has surpassed all expectations in making friends for the four months that he has been our spiritual leader. He is firm in his convictions, shoots straight from the shoulder, and lears, no man when it comes to speaking the truth. His message on last Sunday morning was full of rich truths of the Gospel of our Lord. So eloquent, and so impressive was his sermon that even a child plainly can see and understand the theme of his message which had to do with Christians as the light of the World.

The paper of the morning was by Rev. Dr. Gordon on the "Pentecost of the Christian church" There was evident care in preparing the paper presented by Dr. Gordon. His views were peculiarly, his own, from the beginning throughout. From the nature of the subject there was an air of earnestness and solemnity accompanying the vigorous announcement of his position. Expressions of commendation were offered Dr. Gordon by the brethren. An offering of $6 was given the Shilgh Church.

I stated that he would not and he DID NOT. Neil is rather of a sensitive type. Criticism does not roll off him like water off the well known duck's back. Hence he hates to lose and when he does the boys, around Leslie Wilson's where he hangs out do not see him for some days. BESIDES HE WANTS TO GET SOMEWHERE. Young yet it would mean much more to him to tag the world's greatest modern athletic sensation than to take his wages for a night's work starring in the FALLING LEAF. Besides the retiring quiet boy from Riverside is not that good an actor. Of all the movie opportunities that have come to others of the Ethiopian strain Neil has never been chased after by the De Milles and Griffiths to honor the movie screen with his map. Now his brother, Jack is an actor. That's his business. He could have simulated as good as K. O. as really happened to Neil. All up and down the Avenoo where your 'Upper Cuts and Blocks Editor' strolled to listen in on comments after the short battle few made any doubtful remarks. Too much Carnera was the general opinion and "The California Thunderbolt" was complimented for his nerve to climb into the same enclosure with the "Venetian Bear." But their confirmation was not necessary to any one who saw it. Clisby was really trying.

C. Hueston and members of the League at their annual meeting. The 1930 roster is completed. LEAGUE SEASON OPENS APRIL 26 The regular season will open April 26 at the following cities: St. Louis at Nashville, 5 games. Cubans at Memphis, 5 games. Detroit at Chicago, 5 games. Cubans at Birmingham, 5 games. Kansas City (open.) (Cubans play Birmingham, April 28, 19. 30, May 1.) The first half league schedule ends July. Winter League Flopped Winter League baseball was a flop as far as the pockets of the eastern players were concerned and as far as satisfaction to the fans who loved to see the crack colored players from the three eastern leagues play the best white leaguers from both Coast and the East. Dissatisfaction arose when the San Louis Giants, a Mexican team was brought in splitting each Sunday game three ways instead of two. Most of the players went back in the middle of the second half. After that Pirrone held the week-end games with Mexican and white teams playing. LEWIS TO WRESTLE MARSHALL At last Ed ("Strangler") Lewis will meet Everett Marshall, the year's wrestling sensation, in a best two out of three fall finish mat battle at the Olympic April 16.

Without all this, if he had been just a big green bum the hard soaking Neil would have knocked him out. What a hero he would have been today if he had even knocked Primo down once, and if he had laid his huge hulk away in Slumberland, he could have taken Mr. Leon See's route card and filled all the dates where he intended to show his one man circus. So you see the dark brother from down the road had every-reason to try to overshadow the pale brother from Mussolini's land of Roman gladiator. Hence I am very glad he chose to nurse a sore jaw and did not do a swan. I could never have looked my readers and Bill Smith in the face again. 10 Los Angeles Wins First Game in Coast League 3-2 Playing what was voted the snappiest game here in current history, the Los Angeles Angels beat the Portland Beavers in the opening game last Sunday at Wrigley Field, to the tune of 3 to 2. Clyde Barfoot pitching for the home team lived up to expectations in a tight pitching duel against Carl Mays, big leaguer playing his first Coast League game. From the fourth to the ninth stanza Clyde only allowed the Northerners one run to add to Bob Johnson's homer. Barfoot made the first run in the second inning from a base hit. Jigger, Statz, was the batting star of the Angels, with three hits, a triple and two singles, while Dittmar's fielding drew cheers from the 10,000 fans.

JOHNNY CHRISTMAS THE BAY OF FREEDOM When Johnny Schiff, who died Monday before last was refereeing at most all the local clubs he was often accused by colored fighters and fans of being unfair to colored boys. But it was proven by some decisions he rendered when both boys were white that he could not always make a clear summing up and proper verdict. accused by colored fighters and fans of being unfair to colored boys. But it was proven by some decisions he rendered when hot boys were white that he could not always make a clear summing up and proper verdict. But one incident occurred which never reacme the public knowledge that proved he meant to be fair and was also as fearless as when in the World's War he was wounded, gassed, and decorated by the king of Italy. Just before a battle between a colored and a white one, Johnny was approached by a little "mob" of tough gangsters who were syndicating a big wager on the white lad "Say," snarled the leader, "the Spade's got to lose, see? and we don't mean maybe, and if he dork." He and the rest of the gang displayed their artillery. Johnny, used to stutter, so he answered thus: "W-e-ll well, a-l-l o-o-f you can go t-t-o-h—l, I give to who ever wins." Nobody knows how i twould have ended as no referee was needed, the black boy knocked his opponent out in the first round. Pope Whips Up War Hysteria ROME (Vatician City) April 8. (CNA) Pope XI. doing the bidding of the imperialist masters continued the campaign of whipping up a war spirit against the Soviet Union in the interest of world capitalism. Pius preached before a crowd of 0.000 mostly rich parasites who had money enough to gather for the anti-Soviet meeting at St. Peter's basilica. The Pope, bedecked in jewels worth hundreds of thousand dollars, while millions of workers starve throughout the world, called in mystical terms for armed intervention by the imperialist powers against the workers' republic in behalf of the kulaks and capitalists. THE WRESTLER Newton Colored Border Flash Meets Colima And Peregrina Coming with an empressive K. O. record behind him a new middleweight has just arrived who bids fair to be a sensation in local rings. This is Bob Newton whose native home is in Minneapolis but who has been making his present home at San Diego. The tall dark middleweight weighs 165 and stands 5 feet in his ring togs. GETS COLIMA FIRST Bob has been boxing about five years and accumulated a lot of experience which with a lot of natural showmanship has made him a good crowd pleaser. He is matched to fight Bert Colima at Ventura next week and this week meets Peregrina at Ontario, thus appearing with two of the Olympics best drawing cards. Newton heat Kid Savage at Mexicali in 15 rounds. Wild Bill Rogers at Las Vegas. Nevada in 6 knocked out Curry Adams, in 1 Harry Bovett in 1, Lenor Montoc in 2, Dominguez in 3, Johnny Britt in 1 and Jack Carpenter in 4 rounds. This in addition to other knockouts and decisions makes him a dangerous opponent for the king of Mexican middles. Bert Colima, "Old Folks" Willamere who is handling and training him says he will soon be seen at the Olympic.

With Mayor Porter in the box the Coast League base ball season officially opened at Wrigley Field with a better season in prospect than it has had for several summers. From April 8 to Oct. 19, with another week of play-off games likely, is a stretch of baseball that will unfold every angle in the book before the boys go into hibernation.

PAGE NINE COUNTRY CLUB ACTIVITIES No. 44 Associate Editor ain St., Sat. The Kentucky Colonel and Dave Shade ReMatched at Olympic A rematch is always interesting when the first meeting has been close. One of these return engagements that is sure to be a hummer from start to finish was made when Dave Shade and Joe Anderson were matched to box the 10-round main event at the Olympic on April 15. The weight will be 165 pounds. The Kentuckian has been going good in the ast. Alittle over a year ago Anderson took a decision from Shade when they boxed at the Olympic. It was a great light. Shade finished fast, but was unable to overcome Joe's early lead. JOE A GREAT BOY If any boxer has ring color and popularity Joe has hit. Genial smiling, friendly but game as they make them he seems to get in right with the crowd at once. Their affection for him was shown when the news was shaded a couple of years ago tinging he had been stabbed in the heart and was dying at his home in Louisville. All over town ians were saddened till they learned he would recover. He did rapidly and since then big crowds at the Olympic have seen him in two vicious battles against Ace Hudkins. By superior boxing he gained the decision over the Wild-cat but at their second meeting made one of the gainest fights ever seen here battling desperately all the way though losing to the plunging "Cat". Jose Peregrina Returns to Main Street "Who the h——l could win with all that mob standing on top o' each other yellin' for that Mexican?" Disgustedly asked a tough middleweight last year as he came to in the dressing room following a one round collision with Jose Peregrina. Which was only a poor alibi for the fact that all last year. Saturday night after Saturday many confident fighters faced this wild, round, faced Vaquil Indian to be smothered in a storm of soul shocking fists. At most main events the crowd settles' down. At Carlo Curtis "casa de combate," when Peregrina climbs in the ring the rise up and move towards the door. "Won't be long now they cry as the first bell bangs and Jose leaps toward his foe. So great a following has Jose built up among the Mexicans that the Olympic one called for him and the balconies were filled to overflowing both for his first match and his recent one with his contryman whom he hopes yet to dethrone. Peregrine has lost but few matches hardly counting a recent one he lost at the East Side arena, by a close decision. Jose the best drawing card the Main Street Club ever had, was signed by Promoter Carlo Curtis to box Russell Brooks. Brooks comes from Seattle. He has a good knockout record. Peregrina has not appeared at the Main Street for some time and the Mexicans are planning a big welcome for him. He is a full-bloomed Yaguil Indian. Brooks is keenly anxious to make good here in the Southland and does not intend to let cheers for his opponent phase him. He promises him a good licking. A good card of knock down and dragout preliminary bouts are added. Kid Chocolate and La Barba Re-matched Kid Chocolate, Cuban featherweight, and Fidel LaBarba, former flyweight champion, have been matched for a round bout at the Garden May 16. The bout will be at 126 pounds, featherweight limit. Chocolate won a close decision over La Borba in their last meeting. ```markdown ``` Taare ae ae
