God and * his Country, to maliciously and intenkjon, ally commit the crime for which’ he is convicted. fe Young Albritton,’ as a result of a civil service examination, was a Fede- ral employee in the Federal Building where he has been employed for the past three years, and enjoyed the re- spect of all who knew him. He is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Julius Albritton, Sr., of 2713 Council Street, married and is the father of two chil- dren, dne of whom is only five months old, 4 The true history of this case, which has ended so tragically for young Al- britton ang his family, reads like fic- tion.

Albritton, in keeping with the spirit of his age, ever looking for -athrill, secepted-the-invitation;as.a.| result of which, ‘he was introduced to the Japanese paramour, Billy Russell, classed as white by the daily papers, but who, herself, declares that she is a mulatto. From this point this young man, who hails from one of Los An- geles’ oldest and most respected fam- ilies, became a party to the crime for which he has just been tried. : On the stand, young Albritton did not try to conceal anything. He told a straightforward story, as did Smith, his co-defendant.

Butler, casting director of colored actors for the Central Casting Bureau is "be on time!" He don't mean maybe either but still for all that the patient Chas. will invariably give the guilty culprit another chance. "Say," he will call over the phone, "do you think you can be on time if I send you to such and such studio tomorrow? O. K., then be there at 9:00 sharp!" BILLIE BROWN is our slender, pretty talented little hidden talent exhibit this issue. Did you see "Hearts in Dixie?" Do you remember the girl who came down the dusty country road lagging a big, basket of clothes, when met by Step-in-fetch-it, who was willing to make love to her, but unwilling to help carry the bundle? Well, that was Billie. What a winsome little country violet she appeared in the famous Fox feature! Yet that is the only real chance she has had to prove her ability. Billie had stage experience back East as a singer and dancer. She possesses a strong, clear voice and winning personality. She stopped a Nite Nite show completely with a blue number and was showered with money at an Elks' Smoker last winter for just a clear, clean-cut song act. Billie really deserves a break. RIANO TINDANO & MATEO MORNO are the two Africans brought here by Mr. Goldwyn of the M. G. M. studios to complete work in "Trader Horn," which was on location in Africa over a year. Both are from the Nairb district of the Dark Continent an members of the Swahili tribe. They are quite intelligent though neither could speak a word of English when arriving here, in order to secure their services the studio had to put up $100,000 bond for each of them to the English government under whose protection their country is, making them British subjects. OF 'THE 6254 EXTRAS employed April 5, 5887, April 12th, 5208, April 19th, and 5662 April 26, the colored extras received a pretty fair break, much betterer than the previous month. R. K.

When their names appear in the Race papers the info comes like this "Saw your name in the papers." "Yeah, which one? Never read 'em' is the usual answer. Yet the average colored paper only costs $2.00 a year which many of them would spend for one bottle of "jack" and think nothing of it. What most of the local talent needs is to stand in the block long lines on the snow covered sidewalks of New York, in front of the booking offices, waiting, waiting, waiting. Eventually most of them would end in the broadline! Eight Dances Put In "Hit the Deck" OPENS AT TIVOLI TURF FOR FOUR DAYS NOVELTY CHORUS NUMBERING FEATURE OUR OLD FRIEND TOLLIVER will get a break if Lula Belle is filmed as proposed. Tolliver is now marking time at the Dunbar, Cafe, was understudy for the white actor who played "Skeets" in the great stage play. He can do it equally as well. Although it is difficult characterization calling for physical as well as mental work. "Skeets" is warped, twisted, deformed, hunch-back with a smiling, handsome face who shuffles through the whole four acts as the devoted slave of the vamp, Lula Belle. MOSS AND FRYE are at the Lincoln theatre, Union City, N. J. ADA BROWN, singer of syncopated songs, at the Harris Theatre, Pittsburgh, Pa., the first half. GLENN & JENKINS, "Working for the Railroad," is at the Palace, Newark, all week. HELENA JUSTA AND CHARLEY, "The Last Word in Class," at the Capital, Trenton, N. J., first half. NOVELTY CHORUS NUMBER LEASING FEATURE Eerie, fantastic spring steps—primitive "snake's hips"—lowly buck and wing—jazz gymnastics—in fact the entire routine of the terpsichorean art has its inning in Radio Pictures "Hit the Deck" now showing at Pearl Eaton, RKO dance director, is largely responsible. Eight different sequences placed at vantage points of the film, rates "Hit the Deck" as the dance novelty of the season. The first dance stars Polly Walker, the nimble Follies beauty, in the "coffee shop" scene. Miss Walker also sings "Looool" supported by a dancing and singing chorus of 16 sailors. Jack Oakie is at his best in the next number. "Sez You, Sez Me," in a street number with eight pretty girls. The elaborate "Shore Leave" number follows, utilizing 24 girls. 24 men and all the principals. Then there's "Hallelujah." a sequence dealing with a Negro spiritualist meeting. Eighteen Negro girls and eight men participate in "Snake Hips," a number with a choral background of 100 Negro voices. During the technicolor sequences aboard the battleship Wallace MacDonald and June Clyde, pretty little Radio Pictures ingenuine, combine to sing and dance "Nothing Could Be Sweeter," supported by chorus and the three Brox Sisters. A finish number features a galaxy of mermaids being dragged aboard by sailors—a unique dance in technicolor. "Hit the Deck" was directed by Luther Reed and photographed by Robert Kurrle—the team largely responsible for the success of "Rio Rita." The cast includes Polly Walker, Jack Oakie, Roger Gray, Marguerita Padula, Ethel Chelton, June Clyde, Walace MacDonald, Harry Sweet and George Ovey, black face comedian. COLORED COOKS MAKE OAKMONT GOLFERS GOLF (Continued from Page Nine) in daily complimenting the tasty, well cooked as well as fancy food. Each Christmas Bill is loade ddown with presents from members and guests and he has been there a number of holidays. The dining room is in charge of Mr. Romeo Loving, one of the best head waiters in the business, so that is why the Oakmont members say, "Who couldn't shoot par with eats like these?" Most motion pictures are problems for directors and scenarists—and, of course, for the cameraman. But in "The Mysterious Island." Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's all-color spectacle based on Jules Verne's bizarre story of the first submarine, the cameraman had more than his share of troubles. Every scene, before it was taken, had to be analyzed as to color, light and detail by a delicate instrument known as a photoimeter—an instrument as delicate as a microscope. Percy Hillburn, who commanded the battery of cameramen in the new picture, which comes Sunday to the Twoli Theatre, holds that the perfection of the color photography (and never before has color photography been used in an entire picture of the feature class) is due entirely to this painstaking process. "We had to choose the colors that would blend best for delicate effects," says Hillburn, "and every costume was built under the analyzing lens of the photometer. Then we took our divers and went underseas, and in many cases operated the camera in a sort of diving bell. I remember that the first time I went under water in a suit, with considerable air pressure, I fainted. I am rather stout, and can't stand much of that. They gave me gradual treatments under increasing pressure to acclimate me. "We used the Williamson under-sea tube, which lowers a camera to the depths, in the Bahamas, and on the California coast used a special process perfected by John Nicklaus, head of the studio laboratories. As to diving armor, Lionel Barrymore, who is spare of build, stood it best. Jane Daly had trouble with pressure, and Lloyd Hughes became excited under heavy pressure. I think Barrymore was the best subject of all under water." **GRANT AND HALL SUNDAY** As a special treat the clever team of Grant and Hall will entertain with latest songs and dances even better than those they did in "Lula Belle" and several musical comedies. Base and Berry will please with comedy and songs and J. Johnson with piano and accordian in a melange of melody fill out a wonderful vaudeville bill. "CALIFORNIA, HERE I COME" Thus a new invader from Seattle announces his challenge to the light heavyweights at present trying to eliminate each other in Southern Calif. Frank Purcell, noted fight manager is bringing Garfield Johnson known as the "Black Streak" to Los Angeles in a few days and claim that if the promoters will make local managers bring some of their 'precious pampered proteges' out of their he-ribboned band-boxes his "Black Streak" will light up the situation around here show the fans some real scrapping. PETER Reports have been leaking in from the east about what a great boxer and crowd pleaser the "Streak" is but the mornings mail brings some clippings that far surpasses these rumors. Purcell wired the Eagle not to publish Johnson's knockout record as local fighters and managers would be so scared that he would get no fights. But for the sake of the fans we have to tell this much. During a recent invasion of the east the records show that the "Black Streak" had 25 fights and won 20. Of these 6 were quick knockouts, the rest clear wins. In the other five battles he lost one decision to the famous Toughie Griffiths in 10 rounds, two close decisions to Maxie Rosenbloom and a draw, and lost an unpopular decision to Osk Till-tollowed by a draw. He K.

Colored fans are anxious to make a hero of "The Black Streak" since he seems to have the goods and are waiting for his entrance. So says Frank Purcell "California here we come!"

BIG BANQUET FRIDAY NIGHT After being shown to our rooms and given our credentials, we were called for the big banquet prepared for the basketball players of the "Ys" of the Southland. Eats and more of the same and the usual banquet program was followed out, worth while speakers from the Central branch in Los Angeles being the main attraction of the serious side of the question. Burns of the Central branch gave his version of the sport and the sportsman. Dye and Wieman of the Hollywood Branch furnished the fun and did they go. That Dye fellow can go and no less. The first games were played off Friday night after the banquet and there lies the tale. All of our teams went down to defeat to better teams. The 135 pound team played a wonderful first half game to head on the movie city boys at the half by a 9 to 4 score. The boys were going like a million and looked to be sure winners at half time, but in the second half it was a different tale altogether. After playing a game that could not be improved upon they cracked in the second half to go down to defeat to a team that had beaten them twice before. And when the score started coming in from the other teams it was the same way. Only one team reached the finals and that was Jeff Brown's fighting 110 team. The boys played for the championship of their division Saturday night and were going like a million only to loose out in the final minute of play 15 to 14 to Whittier a team they had previously defeated. It was nip and (Continued On Page Eleven) FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1930 $500.00 CASH IS THE PRIZE Should Pals Fight? "No" Says Mushy Should Pals Fight? "No" Says Mushy Although Wad Wadhams Olympic Matchmaker tried his hardest to match that former east-side newsboy ring favorite. Mushy Callahan with his best pal Benny Miller, Mushy and Benny both said "nothing doing." Any one who ever read or heard recited that famous pathetic poem "The Kid's last Fight" can easily sense why. "They could fight and still be good friends. Boxing is just a business, anyway." asserts Wadhams, which is true but if one should permanently injure the other he would never forgive himself, especially when there are so many strangers to fight. Frequently friends put up desperate fights but there is also the ever present possibility of one weakening when he sees his pal groggy, staggering and ready for the knockout punch the crowd is clamoring for. Some months ago the pilot of this Sport's sheet ripped Neal Clisbv up the back for not knocking the block off that big bup. Seal Harris, at the Olympic. He could have sent him to the junk yard in a half round but hated to because they were good friends and he had taught the big ox what little he knew. It made a bad fight and hurt Neil. 50 IST Per Cent TO A FRESH START IN EVERYBO WINS CAMPAIGN THEY ARE OFF TO A FRESH START IN EVERYBODY WINS CAMPAIGN Here's How They Stand Capital Prize 500 Cash .....304,000 due .....17,000 Duarte, Cilif. .....199,000 .....150,000 ter, Pasadena .....533,000 FRIDAY, MAY 2, 1930 Two brothers down at San Antonio used to fight a wild-cat draw every time they were matched; black eyes, cut lips and all while the crowd went nutty.

The score was fourteen to thirteen in favor of 28th street, in the last two minutes of play a 28th street guard stopped a play under the basket that looked perfectly fair, but the referee called a foul with the penalty of two shots tacked on it and the Whittier man sank both of them and the game was over, with the score reading 15 for Whittier and 14 for 28th Street. A championship, within their gasps and to have it snatched away like that was tough going for the youngsters and they took it hard. But such is life, you must be ten or twenty points to the good, or you can't win. All in all we had a wonderful time and enjoyed every minute of our stay, and will be right back next year after a championship in some class and one of these years we are going to sneak up on them before they know what it is all about.

Tan, aside from chasing jack rabbits, Tan has become the pace setter for the track stars, especially the dash man, and he seems to enjoy running on the cinder path. (Each afternoon as the hour draws near for track practice (4:00 o'clock) Tan becomes restless and whines for his two hours of practice in the Bowl. The Coach usually ties Uno, Tan's mates at the finish of the century. Tan becomes anxious to join his mate and at the sound of the gun dashes away with the hundred yard men in pursuit. Tan clocks the 100 in seven flat. While Coach Owens' aspirants have not been able to do as well, they have been able to refuse their running time each day with Tan as a pace setter.

Only a few years ago we were told that the local newspaper was passing—that it could not compete with the dailies and weeklies of the big cities—and that it must yield to the inviditable. But the prophets were wrong. It is true that the local daily or weekly cannot supply in detail all of the news of the world. It cannot compete with its city contemporary in illustrations and features. And vet the local paper is still with us, and it is growing in strength and usefulness as the years go by. Some of the reasons for its existence are summed up in this paragraph from an exchange: The local paper should be found in every home. No children should grow up ignorant who can be taught to appreciate the home paper. It is said to be the stepping stone of intelligence in all those matters not to be found in books. Give your children a foreign paper which contains not a word about any person, place a thing, which they saw or perhaps ever heard of, and how could you expect them to be interested. But let them have the home paper, and read of people whom they meet and of places of which they are familiar and soon interest is awakeed which increases with every arrival of the local paper. Thus a habit of reading is formed and those children will read the papers all their lives and become intelligent men and women, a credit to their ancestors, strong in the knowledge of the world as it it today. HESITANT DRIVER A MENACE "Well, make up your mind," growled one driver at the driver ahead, who had signalled that he was going to turn to the left, and hesitated, and then had gone straight on. "I see that sort of thing every day," said the driver who had held up momentarily to his friend to whom he had given a "lift" that morning; "The hesitant driver is a great menace to safety and so is the reckless driver. One cannot gauge him, one never knows what he is going to do." True of driving, true of life in general. The fellow who cannot make up his mind throws all our plans awry. He will give us a decision by such and such a day. We build upon that expectation and when the day arrives he is still undecided. When he finally does decide the chances are that the scales of his judgment have been inclined one way or the other through the consideration of a minor point and not because of a clear analysis of the situation. The only way to deal with the hesitant driver is to watch him or, better still, to pull around and get in front of him. The only way to deal with the hesitant type in general is to analyze your man and, if he falls into this class, make due allowances. To depend on him in matters of importance is to build on shifting snads. LAM HAPPINESS I am that for which you are looking. I am the goal of religion. I am the objective of philosophy and silence. I am the dream of the wretched. I am the quest of the world, the great hunger of humanity. My dominion over men is world-wide. As children they romp toward me. As old men and women they tottter after me. I am insatiable thirst. Because of me mankind carries on business and commerce. Because of me the scientist labors long in his laboratory. Because of me untold millions of dollars are spent for the purpose of education. For men know that knowledge, health and business are paths to my domain. My name is written into the most exalted declaration of independence on earth. The right to the pursuit of me has been written in the hearts of men and sealed with their blood. Civilization is my reward, and man's home is my chief dwelling place. For all that I am a bright dream and a beautiful purpose, the children of men still stumble and fall and bruise themselves in my quest. They still confuse me with pleasure and with riches and with power. Yet I am as I always have been. I am the same yesterday, today and forever. The children know me and posses me, and the childlike at heart never lost their hold on me. GET IT STRAIGHT This publication exists by the pure and voluntary support of the people whose cause we espouse 365 days in the year. It is absolutely independent, unsubsidized and has not got its hand out asking any man, woman, set of men women or anybody else to give to us of their store. All it has ever asked is "elbow room" in which to solve our own destiny. We must need to battle all the way to maintain this standard and the records will show just how well we have performed. Our major battles at this moment is the contest for the uplifting of our economic condition, which to our mind is the major problem confronting our people. To solve this situation we must co-operate with each other to the fullest extent and if we do this we will find out that we have the solution in our own hands. For surely we have but to look well to places of business which we have created ourselves or from those who are in harmony with our progress in business. If we would do this we will rapidly make positions and situations which automatically solves the question of economic independence. We are on our way and have been for many moons and we are not weary of singing the rallying cry—"ON WITH THE BATTLE until victory is achieved." LOOK OUT FOR THE ABOLITION OF LYNCHING Associated press reports for this week are to the effect that a white man was lynched in Mississippi. We are firmly therefore of the opinion that the days of judge Lynch are numbered. We are sure that even in this benighted land of ignorance that the white folks who have for so long feasted and held carnivals over the ashes of human beings, will sense the disgrace they have brought upon themselves and shrink away in sack cloth and ashes to make their repentance sure. DEEDS NOT WORDS COUNT— If a man is good at his trade and profession, there is no proof of the same by his own proclamation to that effect. If he really rings true all hands will realize the same by his own demonstration in deeds but never in words. One thing they cannot blame our lawlessness on is a scarcity of laws. Another thing that seldom turns out as you expected is the woman driver. The census is about the last place to recognize the husband as head of the family. Have the men who make nickle cigars ever thought of serving a slab of corned beef with them? After the takers of prohibition polls have done the counting the losers will do the discounting. Before the wedding a girl won't believe he is unworthy of her. After the wedding she will tell him he is. You needn't make a better mouse-trap to have the world make a path to your door. Just get your name on a sucker list. That lawyer who said the eighteenth amendment cannot be a part of the constitution must be the same one who told the man behind the bars: "Why, my dear man, they can't put you in jail for that." One of the most harrowing: heartrending; tradegies in the annals of the nation's history was enacted when 317 lives were snuffed out in the holocaust of the Columbus, Ohio penitentiary. If men ever suffered the torture of hell, according to the testimony of some of the survivors, those roasted, smoke choked convicts did. To witness the creeping flames draw nearer and nearer; to have the lungs filled with the sulbhurous smoke was enough to appeal the stoutest heart. The United States Attorney General has warned against the further prosecution of petty cases. The prisons are filled to over flowing. Here is an almost obsolete prison built for a capacity of 1500 prisoners, and crowded with over 4000. Most of these men were incarcerated for infraction of the Volstead law. Some one in authority is to blame for the great loss of life. Conceding that some of those men were desperate characters and that their escape would have proved a detriment to society at large; it would have been better far to have risked their escape, than to have had the mroast like pigs. There will, with-out doubt, be a searching investigation made and a thorough probe into the affair that will place responsibility. There should be no whitewash, no difference where that responsibility for the death of those men should fall. Much to the chagrin of some senators who will seek re-election President Hoover has decided not to present the "World Court" for the consideration of the senate at this session. That decision leaves the issue open for discussion during the campaign. It may be the desire of the President to make a test of public opinion. In his speech before the Daughter Of The American Revolution he stated it was the consensus of opinion among thoughtful Americans that the United States should participate in, or become a member of that tribunal. The outspoken manner of the Illinios electorate in the McComick—Deneen primary contest did not convince him that the majority of the nation was irrevocably opposed to participation in the League Of Nations tribunal at any cost or under any circumstances. One of the most excoriating articles ever made in the criticism of a president appeared in the Hearst publication a few issues past. It not only questioned his Americanism but alike his party fealty. It is the opinion of most of the party leaders that President erred in delaying the presentation of the court pact until after the November election. Many of the aspirants for re-election will either have to recant, "eat crow" or be registered among the also rans. The "Wets and Drvs" are having their inning just now. All other politics seem to be put in the background. It is wonderful how the majority of women have changed in the view toward prohibition. Many of the most eminent women of the nation who were former ardent deciples of Volstead have seen the futility of trying to enforce an uninforcible law and have testified for such modification as will take away the felonious sting and check the fanaticism that is filling the prisons to overflowing by the prosecution of petty cases. The "Noble Experiment" has been tried for a decade and the more drastic the law the more flagrant the violation. A Fresno young women plead guilty to furnishing high school girls and boys liquor for an orgy that shook the basis of society in the community. That is but one of the many happenings where boys and girls violate, not only the law but the social ethics as well. Prohibition as it stands to day is undermining the moral basis of the nation. It is the breeding spot of hypocrisy and deceit. It has bred crime and created criminals. The testimony of Sir Henry Dravton who, on request appeared before the house judiciary committee, said that Canada had tried prohibition and found that it created lawless traffic and could not be enforced. So it was dropped and the present system of government control inaugurated. And while it is not perfect it is greatly superior to the old order, and is being improved upon. The decreases in drunks is noticeable. Sir Henry is chairman of the board of liquor control in Canada. It is not expected that the paid professional reformers will allow modification without a struggle. Senator J. S. Frelinghuysen: Republican: N. J. voted for the Volstead law but" after ten years of experience and study have modified my views. While the law has destroyed the open saloon it has developed new and grave evils with which the public is familiar." he said: Senator Frelinghuysen will be opposed in the primary for re-election by former Ambassador-Dwight Mrowr. Thoughtful men and women throughout the nation are dubious about further experimentation with the "Noble Experiment." No account should be taken of the expenditure for enforcement. If there was but a gleam of hope; if there was a streak of silver in the leaden sky; we would join with millions of others and say spend-to-the limit. But there is no hope. Conditions grow worse as the years go by. Instead of a decrease in crime; there is a big increase. The jails were to be emptied and converted into schools. Instead the prisons are so full that even the highest lawyer in the Government, begs for a let up in prosecutions. When the Volstead act was passed, through fanaticism, the nation was on a fair, way to abstinence through the education of temperance. The late President Wilson visioned the futility of the act and opposed it. The late W. J. Bryan, at loggerheads with the President. Wilson, espoused it. He espoused also, punishment for the teaching of the science of evolution. A poll of the senators on the confirmation of Judge Parker, N. C. President Hoovers nominee for justice of the Supreme court of the United States, bodes no good for the Judge. The sub committee by a vote of ten to six, reported that the nomination be rejected. On the floor it is said that a sufficient number of votes have been pledged to make non-confirmation a surety. You will know the result before this comes to you. The show down will come Monday, April 28th. Party leaders have pleaded with the President to withdraw Judge Parkers' name, but he seems obdurate. It might be that the Judge, sensing defeat, will have his name witdrawn. Labor and the Negro, through the testimony given before the committee by Walter White of the N. A. A. C. P. has had its political effect. Will the President heed? After all the question "Did the Republican party elect a Republican President?" may be a pertinent one. During the first two months of this year, California headed the list of executions with the hanging of seven men. New York was second on the list with five executions. The statistics were brought out by the American League to Abolish Capital Punishment. Their claim was; that the states which execute the most criminals are apt to have the highest homicide rate. It was not taken to account that five of the men hanged in California were convicted of killing within the prison. Of the five who went to the gallows, but one, Jim Gregg of Fresno was serving time for murder. The others were serving time for banditry and robbery. Yes, the other two who were hung in San Quentin. The prison riot in Folsom on Thanksgiving Day 1927 is responsible for the high average in California. Senator George "Gin Marriage" Rochester, 37th Senatorial District Los Angeles; was a recent visitor at the capital. We hardly believe that the Senator visited the office in the southwest corner of the Capitol. It is rumored that the Senator is to use his political knowledge to further the interest of San Francisco's Mayor, who is a candidate for the office of governor. It would seem more like southern loyalty if the representative of the 37th had declared for the home candidate. If Rolphs candidacy blows up like the Belfast Shillelah story it will throw a "Dud" for sure. Of course you all have heard how the smiling Mayor of our town exhibited a blackthorn stick heralded as a gift from James Stelfox Mayor of Belfast of the "Auld Sod." The gift was exhibited and the story told with zest. It was used to quiet the turbulent meetings of the Supervisors. Being the gift of a Lord Mayor; it was the Mace of authority. But, some Irish daily became apprized of the incident and forthwith made it known that there never was a Stelfox Mayor of Belfast. He was a GAS MAN. Oh well! Thats a pretty good man for a political campaign Friends of Governor Young who are looking out for his political interest while he attends to the affairs of his office, report a crystallization of sentiment throughout the State favorable for his retention in office. It is the opinion of this writer that the Governor will make a formal announcement of his candidacy by the time this story comes from the press. It will no doubt take the form of a statement; reviewing his administration and giving an account of the stewardship with which he was entrusted. His opponents will have to search the records with a microscope or harrow it with a fine toothed comb to pick any flaws in the administration of the affairs of the Commonwealth. The money of the taxpayer has been wisely spent. The scattered departments have been gathered and centralized. Departments have been created so that divisions within have their unit or responsibility. Heads or bureaus are responsible to the head of the department of which it is a unit. There can be no "passing the buck." The heads of the Departments constitute a cabinet or council where the affairs of the state are brought to the direct attention of the Governor. Expenditures are gone over and there is no project undertaken unless the money to complete it is in sight. There are any number of matters which claim attention and are unfulfilled because of lack of time for their proper consideration. Taxation: That most interesting question which so concerns every citizen, is being studied by a commission of experts. Legislative acts are being drawn to equalize the burden of government maintainance. Corporations and capital must pay their just and equable share. All of these call for careful study, and that is what the present administration is giving. The Governor pulled a good one the other day. He was addressing a meeting of engineers and grew quite enthusiastic in eulogizing California highways. "Why," said his Honor, "A little more than two hours ago I was 120 miles from here with a flat tire." Noticing the smile on the faces of his audience the Governor who had been speaking for near twenty minutes, caught himself. But he would not confess to breaking the speed limit. It is expected that more than 300 Negro Athletes will meet in the Tuskegee relays to be held May 3rd. This will be the fourth year of the event which draws the cream of the Race athletes from the schools in Dixie. All of the schools represented in the Southern Confrence of Negro Colleges will present their quota of athletic stars. The main contenders are Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and Tennessee. Those colleges turn out some of the finest athletes in this nation, barring none. There are athletes at Tuskegee which would give keen competition to any of the big Northern Universities. We are looking forward with impatience for the results of the meet. It is expected that many records will be broken, especially in the sprints and relays. Wonder what has become of the Dwver "Anti-Lynching Bill?" Don't hear anything more about it. As a political bubble it soon busted. It was about time that they were finding some other thing to bamboozle the gullible Negro voter. When they do, we will fall for it. Remember some time ago that the Brazilian government put the quietus on the little flurry talk of American Negro immigration to that country; brought back by a graphic description of the "promised land," when one of the Race editors made a tour through South America, and told us of the wonderful opportunities there? Why the quietus? The cat is out of the bag. Japan has contracted for 250,000 acres of Brazilian soil and is going to colonize. The Japanese will till the virgin soil and produce wealth for the Brazilian government as well as relieve the congested conditions of Japan. The Negro can hardly be persuaded to work the virgin soil of his native country. NEW ORLEANS TO ENTERTAIN FUNERAL DIRECTORS retargy, St. Julian Fenifo, Cincinnati, Ohio, Treasurer; T. M. Fletcher, Akron, Ohio, Chairman of the Executive Committee. One main feature of the proram at New Orleans will be devising means and ways of combating Burial Societies that are operated by white people exclusively for Negroes. It is the belief that Negro Funeral Directors, who pay equal tax and meet the same educational and financial requirements of the various States, should be allowed to bury their Dead; but the Executive Secretary's Office reports that during, 1929, close to a million dollars was collected from Negroes in Burial League fees. The only return from this investment on each contract is a regulation burial outfit with no privilege of choosing the Funeral Directors desired. Many other important questions will come up at the New Orleans Session which will bo of vital interest, not only to the Funeral Directors, but to the whole Negro Race. The Department of Commerce will be represented by one of their Business Specialists. Mr. James A. Jackson, One of our well-known and out-standing Chemists, Dr. Lloyd A. Hall of Chicago will also be a speaker. The nine Colored Funeral Directors of New Orleans are to be host to the Independent National Funeral Directors Association June 16. 17. 18. and 19th. Executive Secretary. R. R. Reed. Chicago recently visited New Orleans and reports that arrangements are nearing completion for the greatest meeting the annals of Colored Funeral Directors. A special train has been chartered to carry the Eastern, Western and Northern Funeral Directors and their friends to New Orleans. The train will leave Cincinnati on the night of June 14th. On the return trip, the special train of the Northern Group will spend one-half day in Tuskegee and one whole day in Atlanta, as the guests of the Atlanta Funeral Directors. There are, approximately, 3,000 Negro Funeral Directors in the United States. There are 9 casket factories, 3 Embalming Fluid and accessory plants, 1 casket supply house, 1 general Supply House, 1 Robe and Dress Manufacturing Co., actually owned and operated by our people. There is one Traues Journal, "The Colored Embalmer," published monthly by R. R. Reed, Chicago, as the Official Organ of Negro Funeral Directors. Many of these concerns will exhibit their products at the New Orleans Meeting side by side with those of white Manufacturers. TWO-M.W.-Eagle. BOOK SUGGESTIONS FOR BOY'S WEEK Since the week beginning April the twenty-seventh is known as National Boys' Week. The libraries are laying unusual stress on books for boys. The following books have been suggested by the librarians of the Helen Hunt Jackson and Vernon Branch Libraries: A Boy Scout Around The World. By Palle Huld. Arnold L. Moss of the Geddes and Moss Undertaking Co., is President of the New Orleans Local Association. In 1929, the firm of Geddes and Moss buried over one thousand bodies and did over $100,000.00 worth of business. Joseph P. Geddes is the Chairman of the Local Entertainment Committee. A fascinating book containing the actual experiences of a Danish scout on a trip around the world made in forty-four days. The Independent National Funeral Directors Association was founded by R. R. Reed in 1924 in the City of Chicago, and has now become of valuable interest to each Negro Funeral Director. G. William Saffell, Shelbyville, Ky., is its President: Edward W. Stone, Tampa, Fla., Recording Secretary; R. R. Reed, Executive Sec- A thrilling story of American aviation from the first experiments of the Wright brothers to the end of the eventful year, 1927 told by Lieutenant Maitland who participated in the first successful flight to Hawaii. Tal, His Marvelous Adventures With Noom-Zor-Noom. By Paul F. Cooner. Y. M. C. A. NOTES The Y. M. D.'s once again brought credit and honor to their organization when three of their constituents, Wilbur Dyson, Carl Jefferson and Kenneth Spencer presented themselves before white audience and city Post Office employees at one of the leading churches in La Crescental, Spencer with his deep, rich basen-voice stormed the house in his renoition of Negro Spirituals. Of course, flutist Dyson and saxophonist Jefferson lifted the roof of the affair with their enticing melodies. All and all the fellows brought credit to their race, to themselves, their organization and to the "Y". The demonstrated real inter-racial propaganda; prejudice is reduced more quickly when the other race realizes what can be done by those whom they are often likely to misunderstand. Sunday, May 4th, at 3:00 P. M. the "Hygeal" will hold its special Health Program in the lobby of Inte 28th St. "Y". A very interesting and informative program is guaranteed by these young satellites who believe in hygiene. The coming event for which all "Y" men and the city in general are waiting for will be the City Track Meet. May 20th. The Boys' Camp at Round Meadow in August, and the opening of the new Blue Sky Caterer on Sunday April 27. 1930 are other interesting events. This calendar of events insures every "Y" man sope fascinating times for himself and his associates. The Y. M. D. Orchestra already famous for its ensemble work is very busy enlarging its "reporteur" in order to present itself over K.H.J. on the Weekly "Y" hour. The "embryo" will emerge from its musical shell in the near future. In fact, if it is "class" that you wish call on the Y.M.D. The E. A. T. Organization have banded themselves together to demonstrate economics. They will soon announce to the public the opening of their first co-operative venture; a group of young men who believe that "to know is to do." BOYS' DAY AT THE LIBRARY The club room of the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch Library was the scene of a delightful and inspiring program on Wednesday. April the thirtieth to celebrate Boys' Day at the library. Similar celebrations were held throughout the city at the Central Library and the forty-nine branches of the Los Angeles Public Library. Mrs. Byrd Machida, Children's Librarian of the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch was in charge of the program and had many surprises for the large group of boys who crowded the club room. The speaker of the afternoon was Rey Beane of the Hamilton M. E. church who accessed the boys very informally holding them 'spell-bound with his most inspiring though highly humorous remarks. A marvelous imaginary tale of Tal, boy of nine, who goes journeying with Noom-Zor-Noom, a fantastic, kindly old man, and his snow-white monkey. Their journey to the kingdom of Troom ends in a dramatic episode when the kings recognizes in Tal his long lost son. i FCN Oy Lees ee OS ee a ae OCS Bp Se na ae CL oe hon IO eS ee Cee aT ne re ee epee, eet see a ae ae eg ee wi Se een ye ee eee eee J aes > A “ + OT ll be CU Cb be Ce be) a lll Cl etl be UT Ve UU IV UV VU TMV EUV IU Tv UT CIC Vd PN Ob CT Uh Be UCT Ue We Ue et Oel Vel Ua Best Dect Bed Uc Ue 28th Street Dri ve - in iar et cc ee eee ee $porresesesocessesosasesasesessoarsseonesoeteessennesoneeoes ee perenne ee er yy | MEATS | Groceries THINK i.

J. C. Renaissance, the papu- lar Pasadena boys’ club, basketball team defeated the “Y” Baccaracs 16-14. The Bace’s, the boy region champions, have succeeded in clean- ing up everything up nortn and prov- ed to be tough opponents for the Ren- aissance. The first half seemed to be in the favor of the “Y's”, The Pasa- dena boys were slow in getting start- ed. Near the end of the first period Carter and ‘Ford each made a basket and the Renna seemed to come to life. The score at thé end of the first half was 8 to 5 favor of the northern- ers. The second shalt was a different story. The powerful Renaissance machine began to work and Pasadena showed plenty of action. The score was soon tied. G.

Bleeding Bleeding may come irom many caus- es and sources: Before actimg: in a given case try to determine the source oi the bleeding and get if possible “the idea of the cause, Try also to de- termine whether the patient has al- ready lost a great quanity of blooa. or whethen just a small or moderate amount, The two best ways to deter- mine this, by the looks, of thé patient, and bt the feeling of the pulse. If the patient is pale, especially around the mouth and lips, and if the ‘pulse feels very rapid and soft or “empity” then the patient is very likely to be in a critical condition, with danger of death from hemorhage at any time. Therefore get a physician as soon as possible. In the mean time stop blecding if possible supply fluid sips of water if the patient can take them. Spurting or jutting of'blood means a cut artery slowly flowing, or gently flowing blood of a darker hue means a cut vein. Bleeding from an artery can be stopped only by pressure. In case of a fairly small’ sized vessel the bleed- ing can usually be stopped by placing the ball of the thumb directly against the bleeding point itself, Keep up this presstire until the doctor cames. (To Be Continued In Next Issue) ON THE SIDE WALK (Continued From Page One) cussed topic of the evening was the water bond issue to which the women, as a body, stamped their approval. Mrs. Thomas, the president of this club is to be highly congratulated up- on her method of increasing the nu- merical strength of the organization. The Hon. John C. Porter, Mayor of Los Angeles, sent forth a call to a group of forward looking citizens to meet him in the council chambers last Tuesday afternoon, April 29th, at 3:30 o'clock. His invitation met with a most hearty response and the cham- bers were filled with ‘eager citizens, who believe that the future prosperi- ty of Los Angeles depends largely upon the successful passage of the $38,800,000 Bond issue, which will be voted upon, May 20th. Among the prominent speakers who spoke in be- half of the water bonds upon this oc casion were Bishop Cantrell, , Bob Shuler, George’ Baker, past president of the Eastside Association and a rep- resentative from the Labor Council, who declared that labor was -100 per cent for the bonds; Joseph Scatt and others. The meeting was presided ov- er by Mr. Bullock. Mayor Porter in his opening remarks. said. in part, that unless we vote these bonds we will actually have a water shortage.

BATEMAN *Carry me back to Ole' virginny.* Dah's whah de cotten, corn and sweet potatoes grow; Dah's whah de birds warble sweet in de springtime Dah's whah dis ole darkey's haht does long to go.* So, just as Old Sol turns his fiery glances toward the distant western horizon we pull into the station. At last in Ole Virginny! The city of Richmond, to be more explicit. I am unnerved! The humiliation suffered on the Jim Crowhawls left me in a state of mind so apprehensive of evil that I dread alighting. I would crouch down into that stifling, hot corner of the space allotted those so unfortunate as to be born to color) and remain until the shades of night have fallen that I might be swallowed up in their embrace. "All out.—Richmond!" yells the conductor and regardless of my trepidation. I gather bag and baggage and rush forward. There are red caps there. Brown skinned ones I should have felt at home. To the contrary however, their stucced avoidance of any contact with those of color brought to my mind what I had heard concerning Red Cap service in the South. Someone had told me that a Red Cap is not allowed to take the baggage of a Negro, at least not as long as his service is needed by the whites. Not receiving any attention. I struggle forward loaded to the nth degree with all my baggage, unshred tears of aggravation hot in my eyes. I go up the same passage-way ignorant of any other and am confused when I find no other persons of color there. In fact there are no others in the room. It is a long room off the main "white" waiting room, flanked on either side and down the center with benches. A nice clean pleasant room it is, seemingly designed to take care of the overlow passengers from the main "white" waiting room. It's empty desolate condition gave me my first impression of the poverty-sicklen condition of the Southland. Even beyond in the main waiting room there is an absence of activity. A few persons idle around, seemingly more to rest on the various provisions for comfort than anything else. The rigid faced girl in one of the windows precludes any attempt on my part of advances for information. I am in the South and am bound by its hatred of my kind. Finally I notice telephone booths and determine thereupon to make an attempt, though they lynch me, to call my sister. Unspeakable relief is mine when I recognize her voice at the other end. It gives me courage to hope that I might survive a few days in this cursed country, if she has managed so to do. A Red Cap saunters by and then as tho sensing the fact that we are Strangers in a strange country he retracts his steps. Upon receiving my reprehensible thoughts of the South in general and its treatment of our kind in particular he proceeds to pour soothing oil of pretended bliss on my head. SCORN Ah yes, I sent for you but, go! I wish, but to be left alone Forgive me, please, I did not know One's heart could really turn to stone. Please go, I cannot bear your scorn, Your stare: your cold unfriendly eyes, They taint me, only yester-morn, I lived with you in paradise. But wait, (one moment's quite enuf) That I may match your frigid air, That I may copy your rebuff, 'Twill make my lot easy to bear. You found me rich with love and trust; I knew no duty but to give; You leave me bitter, with disgust; A woman starting out to live. -Iva O. Reed. --- Alpha Phi Alpha Begins Annual Educational Campaign Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity has set apart the week of May 4th to 11th in which to conduct its annual Go To High School. Go To College Campaign. This campaign is the forerunner of all and similar movements and programs conducted by various organizations to create interest in the value of education. By means of it the fraternity attempts in various ways to stimulate the ambition of our boys and girls to seek education and search for truth. Thus Alpha Phi Alpha is engaged in a militant effort to uplift and betterment, for promotion of the highest ideals of manhood and womanhood, and for creating interest in the higher and finer things of life. According to the leaders of the movement there is great need for effective work among Negro youth. In the census of 1920, of the population 10 years and over, the percentage of illiteracy shown was 5.9. Of this native white, 2 per cent were illiterate; the foreign born, 13.1 per cent were illiterate; the Negro, 22.9 per cent were illiterate. The Go To High School. Go To College Campaign works for the benefit of American boys and girls regardless of race or creed and happens to be one of the few movements in this country that does not ask the public for financial assistance. Each year people of various races and religious creeds participate in this great program. These include ministers, educators, business and professional men and women, authors, high officials of government, publishers and captains of industry. Churches and social service organizations eagerly volunteer their co-operation. About one hundred of our prominent Race leaders have been assigned to speak it all sections of the country during the week of May 4th. Many of them will be heard over broadcasting stations, instructive and inspiring litterateurs has been compiled and is being distributed to the chapters for use during the campaign week. Already requests are being received for this from high schools and social organizations. Local chapters will conduct public meetings, talks before various student bodies, and will make personal contacts with parents. Movie slides, circulars, bulletins and personal letters and placards with further acquaint the public with the purpose of the movement. The Go To School. Go To College Campaign is only one of several activities carried on by the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity through its Department of Education Activities. It is not an attempt, necessarily, to make college graduates of every boy and girl. it is however, an urge that every boy and girl be equipped with as much knowledge and training as is possible in order that each may fit into the scheme of life with greatest usefulness.

RECITAL Last evening, Monday, April 28th, in the Major Theater Beaux Arts, Irving Hardon, Baritone (colored) gave a most pleasing and artistic recital of classic numbers and spirituals. The concert was a success from every standpoint, considering Mr. Hardon has only recently returned from Boston; where at the recommendation of incomparable Roland Hayes, he has studied for three years, with Hubbard, former teacher of Mr. Hayes. Rudolf von Iebisch was at the piano and truly he himself with his exquisite touch and anticipative feeling and understanding is a treat. Mr. Hardon gives great promise that America shall know in the future another highlight of his race. He has most prominently two of the qualities that has made for success in Hayes, viz MIND and CHARACTER. He is a sincere and earnest student, with expression; and good articulation; as well as much feeling; and thus does not bore his audience with monotony of utterance. Let its boost our artists here in America. Why should each and all be required to struggle for acceptance in Europe before America recognizes and patronizes greatness. And wouldn't it help wonderfully if our clubs would voluntarily employ such talent as often as possible; giving the public a beautiful treat and the artist the financial assistance he requires.

Judge, jury, attorneys, officers and ye Eagle scribe visit scene of tragedy. The actors in the court scene which compose the personnel in the trial of the People vs. Sharashi, the Japanese in the case of Albritton and Smith and Sharashi, shifted to 34 Pido St, Pasadena, the Chinese gambling house in which the Chinaman was shot to death on the evening of February 22nd. The jury viewed the scene to better enable them in arriving at their conclusions in the case. JAP FURNISHES THE BRAINS FOR WATCHING CRIME Out of the trial to date conclusive evidence has been brought to light that the Jap, Sharashi, furnished the brains that planned the robbery, of the late Bing Wong gambling house at 34 Pico street in Pasadena, at which place the murder was committed. His two accomplices whom he used freely indeed have already plead guilty to the part they played and have been sentenced to life imprisonment. Shirashi' is through his attorneys putting up a stiff opposition and fighting to a finish to escape perhaps the death penalty or murder in the first degree without recommendation. TUESDAY. 10:00 A. M. Paul Sweinefert from Jefferson High in keeping with boys week was on the bench beside Judge Hardy.

ROAK Q- How long have you been a police officer of Pasadena? Ans- Thirteen years. Q- How long an officer in Long Beach? Ans- Nine years. Q- How long a police officer? Ans- Twenty-five years. Q—Was he arrested and taken to Pasadena? Ans.—Yes. Q.—Who took him to Pasadena? Ans.—Officer Myron, myself and others. Q.—State the conversation if any at time of arrest? After violent objection and lengthy argument by Cooper on behalf of defense, he was overruled and question proceeded: Ans.—He said he had no car as any time. Q.—Do you know Teddy Albritton and Billy Russell? Ans.-No. He also said Teddy worked in the Federal Building. Smith was brought over and identified Shairaishi who was with he and Albritton Saturday night, Feb. 22. Q-Go ahead, state conversation? Ans.-Smith said he just met Shairaishi at First and Alameda streets two or three days before the 22nd. of February. Q-Did Shairaisha make any response? Ans.-I asked Smith what was done and he said he got into the automobile with him. Q-Tell what Shariaishi said? Ans.-He said he did not meet him there.

I bought the badge and I will tell you a lot of stuff. Page--Seven For the third time Mrs. Gladys Albritton, wife of Theodre was offered as a witness but each time was denied privilege of testifying for the state by objections on behalf of defense which were upheld by the court. But finally the court overruled Mr. Cooper's objection and Mrs. Albritton was permitted to testify as follows: Q—Do you live with Albritton's parents? Ans.—Yes. Q—Did you have any conversation with this defendant, Shariashi on or about Feb. 22nd this year? Ans.—Yes. Q—Will you state that conversation?

She testified as follows: The telephone rang. I heard a voice and said is this Frank? Q—What next? Ans.—I told his wife to be still?

August 5-11. 1930 will be a distinc departure in denominational program: acording to a release today by the religious education department head- quarters in this city, The major em- phasis of the convention will be a study and interpretation of factual data con- cerning human needs ang the corres- ponding religious implications. Such problems as health, friendship. sex, parenthood and family life, citizenship recreation, echnomic and’ vocational activities will be presented by special- ists. These. specialists are heing se- lected. it is said, from warious de- nominations and national social agen- cies, An unusual amount,of time is to be given to general discussinn of each topic. This feature, it is predicted will create a sensation within the denomi- nation and a probable clish in the con- vention between conservatives and pro- gressives . regarding several of the delicate problems to be discussed and the attempt to project the denomina- tion into stupendons social adventures Tt is expected that church architecture and reckless expenditure for church buildings will also provoke mnch dis cussion. A leadership training and Christian Endeavor Schoal is to be conducted daily. There is to be an exhibit show- ing the progress in religious cduca- tion. A special edition of a song book has been published by the department for the gonvention, A large convention chorus is now being organized in De- troit.
