PARKER REJECTED VOLUME 42 Yea, though I walk through the valley and shadow of death, I shall fear no evil—Psalms. 23:4. THE ALBRITTON-SMITH- SHIARISKI has been accorded unusual attention by us and again we do not hesitate to state the reason, due to our long and favorable acquaintance with the family. When young Albrighton starts down the river on his journey to a term of imprisonment, we have the satisfaction of knowing that the blush of youth is still in his cheeks and his boyish, frank, open and yet very intelligent answers to questions put to him in this case, impels us to believe that even though he has strayed from the straight and narrow path, his soul is not yet corrupt, and if it is within the mercy of the law to commute the sentences of Smith and Albrighton and give these two boys, who have stumbled by the wayside, a chance to repent, it is our belief that henceforth and forevermore they would go straight, reflecting honorable credit on their families and community as good citizens. THE NEGRO AND THE COURTS A fifteen day's stay in one court room of this, our fair city, has caused us to start pondering the question—is the Negro, as a citizen, taken seriously in the court rooms of Los Angeles? We are quite sure that he isn't, and this conclusion was not reached by us without proper and careful consideration in a survey of court rooms from time to time during the past 18 years. We are not sensitive, merely retrospective as to whether we are gaining momentum in citizenship advancement or are we through political intrigue being lulled into a state of oblivion as to our true status in this community. In passing, one can't help but notice that the Japanese, Chinese and other aliens are always given the "Come right in salute" while the Negro, on the other hand is eyed with suspicion and asked, "What is your business." * BRING KENTUCKY TO * LOS ANGELES ```markdown ``` While Theodore F. Albritton, Benjamin Smith and young Albritton' beautiful little wife, and salutee mother, all proved to be as intelligent on the witness stand as any a any time, hence there was no occasion for any Amos-Andy stuff, one attorney Charles C. Cooper, one of the defense counsel for Shiarishi, the Japanese, when it became time for his presentation of the case to the jury, tried to impeach the testimony of the Negroes in question by calling them "niggers," saying that they, because of their race, were highly emotional and did not know the difference between truth and falsehood,—noticing that his slur was not unanimously received, he said almost under breath. "Pardon me I mean no disrespect for I was born down South and had a n-i-g-e-r m-a-m-y." "I know what the district attorney wants, he wants to wrap that American flag around Bin Wong and have the nigger shooting holes in it, but this is what happened, the nigger jumped behind the post as any nigger would." And he went ever further than this—he attempted to impress the jury that it could not take seriously the statements of the old "nigger lady brought into the court room on a stretcher, for even she was not telling the truth." We do not hesitate to state that this was the most disinterested experience we have ever had in a court room and as a result of the same we are asking the judges on the bench in the city and county of Los Angeles, is this the law? If Bob Shuler had to go up for twenty days for criticising a couple of judges, according to my way of thinking, Cooper should go up (Continued on Page Seven). MRS. MALCOLM H. PATTON KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT ALBRITTON-SMITH-SHIARISKI CASE CLOSED WEDNESDAY EVENING The case of the People vs. the two colored defendants and the Japanese, Albrighton, Smith and Shiariski, came to a close Wednesday. May 7 after a fifteen day legal battle in Dept. 24 of the Superior Court preside, over by Judge Hardy. On last Friday, April 25. Albrighton was again placed on the witness stand for cross examination, and in substance stuck to his original testimony. Benj. Smith was likewise again called to the stand to undergo another grilling cross examination at the hands of Chas. C. Cooper. Cooper, with apparently one desire uppermost in his mind which was to save his priceless Jap at the cost of any other victim, worked over the questions already put to Smith and hurled them again in such twisting curve fashion that it taxed the young man's physical strength to keep pace with the occasion, and to the casual onlooker, one could not be but convinced that Smith was telling the reiterated truth. However, the crux of the situation was reached when Cooper, who had dismissed the witness, called him back to the stand saying, "I have one more question for you. Q.-Is it not a fact that you. Albritton and Billy Russell planned this stick up in Pasadena and decided in a conference on East Fifteenth St. the night of the slaying of Ben Wong, that you would load this crime off on the defendant. I request." A-No. if it were not for that fellow. I would not be serving a life sentence at San Quentin, came from Smith in all the bitterness of a modern Woolsey, and he no doubt would have added to this answer-"Had I but adheard to my early training with half zeal with which I listened to your cunning Mr. Sh炎iskirli. I would not at this time be called upon to pay the price for a crime, the significance of which I did not take time to weigh." BILLY RUSSELL ON STAND Miss Billy Russell, the woman in the case, was called to the stand and after being questioned by the District Attorney's office, as to the fact that she was with Smith and Albrinton on Saturday night. February 22 after the shooting of Ben Wong at 34 Pico St. Pasadena, she was turned over to Cooper and Kendall, defense counsel for the Japanesees. Cooper's first question was— Q.-Are you of the white or colored race? Cooper's question was grating and full of the meaning he was wanting to convey but Miss Russell was more than his equal in an instance. She very calmly replied by turning to the judge— A.-Is it necessary for me to answer this question? Not unless you desire, came from the judge. Miss Russell turning her very composed countenance upon Cooper, looked him straight in the face and said, "I do not care to answer that question." Cooper then stormed at the court in these words, "Your honor I think it all important as to this witness' racial identity." At this point, Deputy District Attorney, Wayne Jordan, interrupted the question as being irrevealant and immaterial and without proper foundation. Miss Russell testified that she had taken the gun, which at that time was in evidence from Albritton on the evening of February 22 buried it behind the Arlington Hotel. She also testified that she had conferred with both Albritton and Smith on the evening of the Pasadena tragedy but not concerning (Court) (Continued on Page Seven) Bishop John W. Martin A. M., D.

Arrested For Interfering With An Officer Although during the melee their prisoner made his get away, Officer Howard and others of Newton Station arrested Fred Patter and Willis Slater at 12th and Central Avenue.

Coming as a shock to the entire community, the news was flashed from Pomona yesterday that Mrs. Malcolm H. Patton had been killed in an automobile wreck. The accident which resulted in so awful a tragedy occurred at about 8:45 A.M. Of the way to attend the State Parent-Teachers Association convening at Riverside, a Mrs. Ross, Mrs. Brown and daughter and Mrs. Patton were traveling over the Foothill Blvd. Mrs. Ross was driving, the young Mrs. Brown was sitting beside her while Mrs. Patton and the elder Mrs. Brown rose in the rear, of the Ford Sedan in which they were making the journey. Just in front of them a Ford coupe was traveling, at too leisurely a pace so Mrs. Ross attempted several times to have it draw over; so that their Sedan might pass. Failing in this she attempted to pass it, when suddenly Miss Brown allegedly became excited and grabbed her arm; this caused the car to wheel into a ditch at the roadside and turn over pinning them beneath it. All in the party were injured but Mrs. Patton so severely that she died at short time later in the Hospital. The body was removed from there to the Coroner's office at Pomona where it awaits request after which it will be brought here this Saturday. Arrangements for the interment have not yet been made. The prominent deacese was very widely known by both colored and white in the community, being very active in the educational and other constructive work in local circles. She was born and educated in Chicago but spent the greater part of her life here. At their cozy home 1106 E. Pico St. She expended the greatest devotion on her son Malcolm H. noted actor and singer recently deceased and her daughter Juanita famed as a prima donna of stage and radio. Surviving her also are the husband and father, Mr. Malcolm H. Patton, the L. C. Parker, husband of Juanaita, the Parker's 8 year-old child Jetauna. From all-over the City condolences are being sent among the earliest being from the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Malcolm, Jr. having been a member of this body they have always affectionately called her "Ma" Patton. BUSY A call coming in yesterday afternoon to Newton station sent detectives Kimbrough and Broady flying to 666 E. 35th Place where a daylight burglar had been busy. He had made his get away before the arrival of the officers though they were but a few minutes making the trip; Hence he is thought to be the very elusive individual responsible for quite a few daylight robberies in the vicinity the past few days. He enters by means of a pass key Capt. Trainor has instituted a 24 hour call service subject to quick action for any law violation at any time. The Department asks local citizens to cooperate by reporting any suspicious looking persons around any homes in their neighborhood. Kimbrough and Broady declare they are right on the job.

This Is Your First! Brother Isaiah, Asserted Healer Forms Colony Accompanied by nearly fifty disciples and followers, including men, women and children. "Brother Isaiah," asserted healer, departed from Santa Monica yesterday to establish an agricultural colony at Orowille, California, where the patriarch's religious teachings and mode of life will be protected once ideal conditions. They are traveling by motor caravan. Brother Isaiah has paid a high compliment to the horticultural and agricultural advantages of California by selecting this locality for his self-constructed Paradise. "I have traveled in nearly every state of the Union," he said yesterday, "and I have decided that the finest farm and fruit growing land to be found anywhere is in California. Here we have determined to settle and we expect to be joined in the future by hundreds of others who believe as we do." Brother Isaiah is eighty-six years old, as the world computes age, but is possessed of the vigor and energy of a comparatively young man. He teaches and practices total abstinence from meat or flesh as a food or the use of products from animals. His followers not to destroy life in any form and it is their conviction that man should subsist from the soil-by the sweat of his brow, and not accumulate worldly wealth or possessions. They study the Bible. The members of this colony do not believe in marriage and the men and women live in separate groups, although they work together and share the social life of the colony. Most of them are skilled farmers, although the members are recruited from all walks of life. It can be truly said there is a new day for the Central Avenue District if the enthusiasm displayed at the first Invitational Banquet of the Central Avenue Business Men's Club, held at the Apex Nite Club on last Friday Evening, is any sort of a Barometer. I Lead by Chief-Of-Police, Roy E. Steckel, who was the Principal Guest Speaker of the Eevening, the Orators grew warm in their predictions of what was in store for members of our Group. "Real co-operation." said Chief Steckel, "has come to my Department from Residents and Business Men of the East-Side, and in return we are going to work shoulder to shoulder with you in making this a greater and better Section of our City." "The Department of which I have the honor o f being the directing head appreciates to the fullest extent suggestions given by speakers around this Banquet Table on how the Police Department can assist you in creating and proterting property values—how we can help encourage those out of employment to seek employment and lastly how by our united efforts we can stamp out Vice and Corruption." REV. A. P. SHAW TALKS Rev. A. P. Shaw, Pastor of the Westley Chapel M. E. Church, held the Banqueteers spell-bound when he said "There is too little business in religion in the Churches of today, especially among those of our Group." "I have often told Young Men of My Congregation to enter business with the thought in mind of becoming Millionairs. We have been proficient in song and in dance and in some other lines but in business lines we have produced no giants of Industry as have other races. We owe much to Curtis Mosby, who after years of study and struggle has built up a wonderful Institution furnishing employment to hundreds of individuals, and Mosby's Organization is known the World over. The Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company was the mind child of a colored man, who after much hard work was able to reap his reward and bear in mind, said the Speaker. We cannot become Millionairs and build as successfully as we should by depending upon our own People only, we must branch out and mingle with those of other races." "Take for example Paul Williams who has won renown in his particular line, he could not be the success he is excepting for the encouragement given by those of other races." CAPTAIN H. A. HAGER FOR US Captain H. A. Hager, of the Newton Street Station accompanied his Chief and assured those present that he wanted to do his bit toward improving conditions and working with the Business Men. He felt and knew that conditions were better on the East-Side than they had been in a long time, and this was made possible by the cooperation of the Citizens of the District itself. HOW IT'S BEING DONE Hon. Hugh E. Macheth, the Speaker of the Evening, out-did himself and in his forceful way told of the things that had been accomplished within the past few months. "Members of our Group," said he. "were never in a better position to leave their imprint upon the civic life of our City as now." "Those in authority believe in us and they have confidence that we can work out our own salvation and they are not going to be disappointed in us." "The economic, the social and the religious life of our people must be taken into consideration and we have neat (Continued on Page Seven) And it should be of vital interest for the people of the group which this paper serves largely, to note how they voted—Shortridge, California's beloved old saint, voted for Parker while Robinson, the man who you said because he ran on the ticket with Al Smith in the last presidential election kept you from being for Smith, voted against Parker. This is the way the vote stands: For Parker (39). Republicans—Allen, Baird, Bingham, Dale, Fess, Gillett, Goldsborough, Gould, Greene, Hale Hastings, Hatfield, Herbert, Jones, Kean, Keyes, McCulloch, Metcalf, Oddie, Patterson Reed Shortridge, Smoot, Sullivan, Thomas (Ida), Townsend, Walcot, Waterman, Watson—29.

Those opposing Parker were: McNary, Robison (Ky.), Brookhart, Glenn, McMaster, Republicans, and Thomas (Okla.), George and Heffin, Democrats. CHARGES HURLED President Hoover and the administration exerted tremendous pressure to overcome the opposition that sprang up against Parker when the American Federation of Labor and the Association for the Advancement of Colored People declared war on him. Divides Insurance Between Two Wives Shreveport, La. (A. N. P.)—The federal circuit court of appeals, in reversing a decision, handed down in the local federal court in the suit of Roxana Robinson vs. the United States, held that war risk insurance is community property under the laws of Louisiana. Although the litigants were Negroes and the amount involved was only $5,000, the legal phases of the case make it very important. it was stated here. Preston Robinson. Negro soldier, who died in France, left an insurance policy to his putative wife, Roxana Robinson, whom he had married without the formality of a divorce from his first wife, Marie Robinson. Roxana Robinson knew nothing of the other wife. The policy made Roxana the beneficiary but the war risk bureau disallowed the claim and made the first wife the beneficiary, whereupon Roxana took the case to judge. Dawkins held that the insurance was separate property of the deceased and decided in favor of Roxana. The circuit court reversed this decision and held that the insurance was community property and decreed that the policy be equally divided between the two wives.

If talent housed in a beautiful body means anything, she should, with the proper opportunity, reach the heights. Though so far only dancing in choruses she is an excellent dancer, has a good voice, perfect figure, bright flashing eyes and pearly teeth lighting up a beautiful face surrounded by a halo of naturally wavy hair. She is getting her big chance now as cigarette girl in Al Jolson's "Big Boy," but formerly played in "Legion of the Condemned," "Shop-worn Angel," "Golden Dawn," etc. At Warner's white player players whisper, "isn't she cute?" "what personality!" "a little brown doll." "BIG BOY" being filmed at Warmers Studio by Allan Crossland, director, with Al Jolson star is using a larger number of colored singers, actors and extras than any pi ture recently filmed except Dixiana. In an elaborate cabaret scene that gave all a good film showing, Emory Crain, Chas. Moore, Floyd Shackelford, Louie cole, Ernest Wilson, Robt. Frasier and Rosale Lincoln as the cigarette girl works several days. Mr. Coleman made a dignified doorman and Yours Truly was among those present. Mean time over on stage 7 the large chorus was rehearsing the songs and spirituals used in the tuneful race track feature. Louie Cole was passed in interview for a member of the chorus but through some alleged inside work called on the coast. "coat pulling," he was switched off over night and replaced by another. SOME 200 EXTRAS were said to be wanted by M. G. M. Studio for Trader Horn, the present week. "UP AN AT 'EM" with around 70 people opened at the Figueroa Play House gasped and died i two weeks.

Johnny Lamar Wins Pacific Coast Title Johnny Lamar is lightweight champion of the Pacific Coast today by reason of an uninteresting victory over Hector McDonald at Hollywood last night. The victory for Lamar was well earned, although he did not have an opportunity to show his stuff. "The Golden Trail," that entertaining Musical Comedy played by a Cast of Fifty and directed by Mrs. Geo. A. Beavers, Jr., at Lincoln Theatre, Friday Evening, May 16. drawled out to Henry Jones, the Pittsburg Courier theatrical correspondent: "Say, don't be puttin' my name in them 'gig' papers, the white folks in Hollywood might hear about it."

THE FOLLIES shows "A World of 'Pleasure' this week with 80 people and Bryants jazz orchestra, the Four Covans' and other colored acts are on the midnite frolic. What was planned as a birthday party tendered by Mrs. Harold Garrison 1109 E. 22nd Street to her little daughter Doris aged 5 developed into an exposition of the most wonderful array of artistic talent in children ever seen off the stage. The little guests ranged from 3 to 12 and practically each was a prospective stage and movie performer. Mrs. Watkins was assistant hostess to Mrs. Garrison and designer of the pretty little floor length fluffy dresses the talented little tots wore. Favors of dolls and noise makers were given each child and also the grown-ups. All the children on the program were pupils of Mrs. Lauretta Butler, famous dance teacher and entertainment promoter. $10,000 Worth of Talent As was remarked by a theatrical critic present there was easily $10,000 worth of unrevealed talent presented by her at the party. With perfectly blended voices a chorus of six rendered songs and intricate graceful routine dance steps. They were, Selma and Gladys Raine. Beatrice Wilson. June De Cuar, Nettie Mitchell and Phedonia Brown, Selma and Gladys Raine then did a duet song and tap dance. Genevieve Nicholson, two sisters Fannie and Priscella Smart, a trio of Nettie Mitchell, Beatrice Wilson and Phedonia Brown, the little Hughes brothers and a "Bumble Bee" song by Checkie Jackson, Grace Morris, Vivian Duckett and Doris Garrison were all song and dance renditions. Doris Garrison the little 5 year old honoree came near stealing all honors with a sweetly rendered solo "Painting the Clouds with Sunshine," later singing a duet with little Harrietta. Other outstanding numbers were a song and dance by little Andrew Manuel after only 8 lessons; Piano solos by Thomasino and Lillian Duckett and Maralyn Warren. "The song of the Nile" by Beatrice Wilson, only 12 years old was a revelation, pure strong and sweet her voice surpasses those of many grown artists. An acrobatic dance by the talented Raine sisters ending in an Adagio dance. These children have unusual talent, developed from babyhood by their mother. Mrs.Louisa Raine 2019 4th St.Street, Santa Monica, "Who'll buy my flowers by June De Cui was also a sweet little recitative song. Following refreshments the adults then rendered a program among which were "Thank God for A Garden" by Grace Logan "Kiss Me Again" by Brita Shaw Johnson "A Dreams" by Ms. Mattee Duckett, and Archer Transcription by Frances Curry and several other renditions. Among the adults guests present were Mr. and Mrs. Hengon, Riano Tandano, the African Mrs. G. Thompson, Mrs. Watkins, Mrs. Warren, Messrs. Everette McGarrity, Nathan Curry, Jas. Davis, Frank Fuller, Harris, Rasher, Fry, Daniels, Garrison, Scott, and Harry Levette. Mrs. Doris Garrison in her charming way was a very able mistress of ceremonies. Crown Wrigley Field. Manday night Gus Sonnenberg, who won the world's wrestling championship from Ed. Strangler Lewis in Boston, preserved his title in the face of a typical Everett Marshall, by wining two out of three falls by the use of his favorite "flying tackle," which rendered the Colorado collegian hors d'combat in a total of 12 minutes after the latter had taken the first fall. COLORED ATTEND WEBL As proof of the rapidly growing interest colored fans are showing in the sport, quite a number passed through the turnstiles to see the title match. Sonnenberg retains his title and his diamond belt but a Marshall received the most applause. Dempsey May Referee Jack Dempsey may referee one of the heavyweight bouts at Wrigley field next Monday when Jim Maloney meets Armand Emanuel and Frankie Campbell faces Les Kennedy in a double windup. ALONG FISTICUFFS R O W ALONG FISTICUFFS — LOUIS RAMOS JW LOUIS RAMQS. Wirt Ross' little Panamanian stablemate of Santiago Zorrilla was discovered at San Pedro last week in a cotton compress trucking cotton bales many times larger than himself. Louis felt the need of building up and hardening his muscles, especially those of the shoulders and back. It made me sore all over at first said Ramos when interviewed but I am all right now and like it. Better to go get a job than put up bad lights says the honest little Louis. BOB NEWTON, game middleweight, who came here recently from San Diego is going to take a few weeks rest until two badly injured ribs heal. SANTIAGO ZORRILLA has been handed two bad decisions recently. Looks like the referees have it in for the demon Panamanian. LEN PORTER has moved over to 23rd street now into a nice large house. He fights this week and has a lot of other bouts coming up. His cute little girl bride is his chief trainer, watching over him carefully as to meals and general health, also keeping him out of the temptation most successful colored fighters fall into. She says championship, a home. property, bank account and retirement is the plan for her fighter. * * * * OTIS CURRY, or his manager, one or the other is to blame for him not getting anywhere in the fight racket. Though a mere boy he has size. height. reach and build to make a great heavyweight. Incidentally Slebert, the rubber at the Manhattan wants to see him. MACK HOUSE is lucky again in in making a fresh start of a series of quick K. O. wins at the Pasadena arena. He should take care of himself and prove by howling over some top notchers that the accusation of his victims being set-ups are not true. Patient Morrie Cohn is about the only local promoter who would give Mack a new parole. RICH BAKER and his close companions are loyal fight fans. They seldom miss a match whether colored boys are on or not. 10 MILDRED BOYD (above) twice beauty prize winer and chorine is one of the reasons they flock to the Douglas Cabaret in San Diego. Dixiana Singer Presented in Hollywood Homes For some time Mrs. Evelyn Turner Warren, 1576 W. 37th Place has been the soloist for a famous radio leacturer, whose thousands of hearers have been as eager to hear the beautiful solos with which the discourse was interspersed as they were for the words of wisdom and instructing in lecture. Few of them knew that the ow nroef the charming voice was a colored woman. In fact a great deal of her work has been of the "behind the scenes" type. She worked all through the filming of "On with the Show" at Warner's singing from a high theatre box in the stage set her voice in the sound-strip but her face out of the picture. She was also a member of the "Silver-tone Quartette over K. F. I.. "Hit the Deck" "Show-boat." "Brown Gravy" by Christie and another Christie Picture, are some of the recent features in which she has sung. ONE OF THREE COLORED GUESTS AT HOLLYWOOD MANSION With Mr. Eugene Page noted composer as her accompanist she appeared poser as her accompanist; she appeared of the elite of Hollywood. A recent occasion was at the invitation of the Morgan Farley's, who were honoring the famous colored artist Abbie Mitchell. She. Mrs. Warren and Mr. Page were the only colored persons present. A member now of Halls chorus she has just finished with them in Dixiana at R. K. O. and received a new contract. Curtis Mosby, owner-manager of the Apex Nite Cluə is authority for the announcement, that beginning Thursday, May 8th, every Thursday night hereafter, will be known as "Ladies Night." with no cover charge for the ladies on these nights. This will work out nicely for the boys to spend an evening, and consider himself, almost a guest of Curtis Mosby. On these nights, there will be special entertainment, favors, etc., for the fair sex. Curtis Mosby feels deeply grateful to the ladies for the very wonderful way they have patronized his place, and will try in many ways, to show this appreciation. Thousands know that the popular Apex Nite Club offers the cleanest, most wholesome entertainment of any nightclub in the city, also the fastest and snappiest of revues. The current production, "Tappin' It." staged and personally supervised by ("Bojangles") Bill Robinson, assisted by the ace of producers Mildred Washington, is a guarantee that you will not be disappointed in "Tappin' It." Harmonica and Dance Wizard Doubles For Jolson Harmonica and Dance Wizard Doubles For Jolson Al Jolson can sing, he can dance, play the well known mouth-organ and some other musical instruments; but when Scott, appeared at Warners Studio where Al is filming "Big Boy" he decided Scott could get more out of a harmonica that he; So in certain scenes for nearly a week he had Parker, pour a flood of harmonica music from his harmonica as Scott is a perfect wizard with it and executes the novelty of playing it and dancing at the same time. This is his specialty although he is all-round entertainer of long and varried prominence. During the recent world's war, Scott who was on Naval duty aboard the U. S. S. Victoria had charge of the entertainment while stationed at San Pedro. During his year aboard he entertained in a number of foreign ports, one night on the Strand in London receiving 155 crowns in tips, which equals about $175 in U. S. dough. Parker first engagements on the road was with the Nashville students. Mills and Fesby out of Chicago and also other companies. Some of his work in pictures has been in "Hearts in Dixie," "Hallelujah." The Song of Katherine. The Song of Kentucky at Fox Studio. "Mamba," "Hy-tone" at Pathe, "Framing of the Shrew" at Christies, "Golien Dawn" at Warner Bros. and many other features different acts in a different way is his slogan. WHO ASKED FOR RAIN Unexpected rain spoiled some splendid sports events, last week. Among them were, Saturday's Angel-Oakland game; prep track championship at L.A. High School; Carlo Curtis' outdoor boxing show; the first game of the Trojan-Bruin baseball series and the intercollegiate outboard races at Long Beach. Sunday's auto races at the American Legion Speedway; the polo game at Uplifters' Club and many semi-pro baseball games. Add to these all golf and tennis activities and you get a quiet weekend in sports. No date has been selected for the White Sox Park boxing show, nor the Trojan-Bruin baseball game. COMEDIAN! CHAS. R. MOORE The cast of "Goin' Home," which opens at the Hollywood Music Box Theatre, next Monday, May 12th will be greatly augmented by the new comedy team of Charley Moore and Spencer Williams, Jr. This pair of stellar performers will occupy a very prominent place in the forthcoming stage production. They will furnish all of the comedy relief for this daring drama. "Goin' Home." is a most startling play woven around the World's War.

Critics from Brooklyn and Manhattan newspapers attended the first two or three performances and duly recorded for the public their varying estimates of "Miller and Lyles." Saturday, after the show had been running for a whole week, the newspapers were informed for the first time through a letter from the law firm of Cohen, Rosman and Raff, counsel for Miller and Lyles, that the comedians who had been disporting on the boards at Werba's were not Miller and Lyles at all. Charles Walton, manager of Werba's Flatbush confirmed the facts as stated in the attorney's letter. He discovered last Monday night, he said, that the comedians who had come to Werba's were not the original "Miller and Lyles." He said: "I got our bill poster from his home and had him paste over the names of Miller and Lyles on all billboards. I had their names removed from the theatre marquee and ordered new programs printed." Our press department modified our newspaper ads and was to have sent notices to the dramatic editors of the newspapers. The new programs were ready. I believe either Tuesday night or Wednesday matinee. They gave the correct names of the two comedians as Emmett Anthony and Irving C. Miller. When we booked the show, however, we were informed that the stars were the original Miller and Lyles. Meanwhile, when "Shuffle Along of 1930" opened last Monday at Werba's, the original "Miller and Lyles" were playing at Fox's Walker Theatre at 64th Street and 18th Avenue. Brooklyn.

Miller who appeared at the Brooklyn house is a brother of the "original" Miller and was given permission by his brother to use the book of the show in which the original Miller and Lyles team appeared two seasons ago under the title of "Keep Shufflin." The original Miller explained that he wrote all of the shows and that despite the fact that another Lyles was playing with him, he has the exclusive right to use; the name "Miller and Lyles," which amounted to something like a trademark. "I gave my brother permission to use the book," he said "and Fred Fisher, the producer of the show at Werba's, wanted me and my partner to sign for the cast. He apparently expected us to do it, for he had all his advertising matter printed carrying the names of Miller and Lyles before he approached me three or four days before the show opened. "I didn't believe it had proper financial backing, and I wouldn't go in for that reason and also because I am signed up for the next two seasons with Lew Leslie's 'Blackbirds'. It was a bad mixup all around. I'm going to leave to my lawyers whatever action may be taken." It is further stated that the same counsel had instituted proceedings against the National Broadcasting Co. for the illegal use of words "patented and the property of Miller and Lyles now used in the broadcasting of the popular team of "Amos and Andy." Mr. Cohen has asked for an injunction restraining the white comedians from using the material unless they pay a large sum to the owners of the copyrighted material. Other rumors have it that this matter, which makes Amos and Andy the most popular radio team of today, was written for another colored team and by a colored writer, who is now enjoying a comfortable income as a result. Press releases on "Amos and Andy" state that the material they use is original with them. It was Walter Winehle of the "Mirror" who first called attention to the fact that Amos and Andy were using material for charity used by Miller and Tales. As a result a general flurry in the theatrical world followed. The show which has caused the trouble played at the La Jolla Theater in New York City last week.

Colored Patron Turned Down at U. S. C. Dental College Editor California Eagle: As a citizen of this city I think it is my duty that I should tell your dear readers of my experiences as a patient at the College of Dentistry of U. S. C., at 16th and Los Angeles streets. I entered there on March 27th and became patient No. 52450. The attending dentist advised me to have a full x-ray of the mouth, which cost me $6.00. The pictures revealed that I had two absse teeth. I was then sent to the surgery room for extraction, which cost me $2.00. I was asked to return March 31st about noon. The attending dentist said to me, wait until I o'clock, that he would arrange for a student to do the work. A coldred student aproached me and looked at my x-ray pictures. He said to me that he was only working in the laboratory rooms and he did not have a chair, and bridge work was above his knowledge, but he would gladly recommend a dentist (private.) I said why should I go to him, my receipt shows that they do bridge work here? He said he was sorry, but that was the "orders" he got. I thanked him and returned to the attending dentist and explained the same to him. He said we do not do any bridge work, further more it would cost you more than you would want to pay. I said well, tell me the price, then it will be up to me to pay your price or not. He left me, saying wait a while, which was about two hours. Think of my embarrassment in the presence of about 25 patients including all nations—Mexicans, Japanese and one colored lady, and the rest were all Caucasians. He returned and said that the colored student could not do the work; that's all he could do. I asked could I see the superintendent. He said she was out and it would not help me any because that's her orders. I went up to the superintendent's office, and was informed that she was League Baseball FREE buy a reg- ulation bat or glove in any of our stores and we give you Absolutely Free, a League Baseball.

She said I will recommend a private dentist. I asked her what's wrong with the white students, my two days' experience with them were O. K. She said, well I will be frank, our policy is not to embarrass the white students to work on colored patients and we are up against it for colored students this year. That's all I can do. JAMES C.

The olaest |retired man has (48) years to his cr¢dit while (20) years is the least served by any one of the group. Although this is not an outstanding service period for such a number ot railroad men, It is a record for retire- ments \during one week. within Union Pacific System in Los Angeles. All men are residents of Los Angeles or surrounding communities. One of the outstanding of the group is Daniel M. Collins, Traveling Freight agent, who has reached, the retiring age. He is one of the best known traiisportation men in this section_of the country and- started: to work Tor the railroad in December, 1883, as agent at Norfolk, Neb. since then he has served~as traific dept official at Sioux City, Iowa; Omaha, Neb.; Min- neapolis.

Uncle Remus of days gone by was wont to say—"when you see nothing say nothing" and especially does the saying apply for all time and especially so to the newspaper geniuses who solicit persons to allow their names to be signed to peans of praises for themselves and to defame others. Such pirates are a blot upon civilization and belong to the buzzards who feast upon carrion. The battle cry of Economic independence is sweeping everything before it and truly in a score of years of effort we have never witnessed the effort and concern which prevails throughout our bailiwick as we note at this moment. We took note this week of the Study Advancement of our group as they have taken a new lease of life and are among the producers from the soil of the earth in the mighty San Jauquin Valley. We note the steady gain in the trade effort for our own business concerns and truly we can say we are much pleased in the determination of our people to show their color and take full charge of their own destiny the goal of which is Economic Freedom. Two little words that make the world run more smoothly, that ease the hard places of life and absorb many if its shocks, are "Thank You." They are the sign of a gracious spirit. They bespeak a generous attitude that would not withhold praise from those that deserve it—a commodity with which too many of us are stingy. The majority of us take too much for granted. In a land of plenty and among a people of infinite resources, we expect much and accept everything as a matter of course. Yet one's best friend likes to hear an appreciative word. While a compliment deserved by an outsider and extended frankly and generously will often convert an enemy into an ally. Appreciation, like charity, begins at home and among those nearest and dearest. The price of good fellows is a failure and a hypocrite unless he takes his reputation home with him at night and arrays it with smiles and pleasant words at the breakfast table in the morning. These two little words. "Thank you." makes the world run more smoothly. Learn to speak them. No praise is ever wholly undeserved. Encouraging words are as great a miracle worker as his sold world knows. A community instead of sitting down and idly wishing for industries to come and longing for the things that build a bigger and better city should seek to create a consciousness among the people that these things can be secured. Once this is done, industries and improvements will come and the city will grow and progress. A great many human enterprises are largely an attitude of mind, largely the thinking we can. The same is true of a community. When the community gets a "success" consciousness, a belief in itself, a conviction that it does not have to accept fate meekly but can achieve and acquire then the things desired will come and the community will grow. Some towns no more richly blessed in natural resources than their neighbors forge ahead and gradually come to be known as good towns. They tackle the problems that stand in the way of progress with a high energy and a firm determination and a complete unanimity of purpose. There is a willingness to co-operate on the other fellow's plan and a inspire every citizen of the town to labor for the common good is there. There is a willing sens to cooperate on the other fellow's plan and a continual and active concentration on some worthy objective. This kind of spirit will make a live town in the middle of a wilderness. Once in a while—say in a hundred years or so—a town can sit still and without an effort grow into a city just by the location of some industries which drop in unasked. But the other ninety-nine years the town grows, whose people have vision energy, courage and go-getting spirit. There is too much competition now among cities for the town which only sits and waits to have much chance. REV. BOB SHULER'S PLIGHT "He fought for the cause which he thought was right." That cause by the effect of our judicial system has caused the fighting minister for civil righteousness to be compelled to spend 20 days in jail. In this situation the enemies of Shuler (forest) and dynamic utterances are rejoicing to their hearts content. On the other hand those who believe in the uncovery of dark places and letting the light shine in, are consoling with him. We are not among those who are rejoicing and we are not among those who console him. But we do realize this is a situation in which the lowly-poor and average everyday citizen should be much concerned. Shuler is an Apostle of the lowly, and just what position the Bar Association occupies is for the people themselves to decide. For surely it seems day by day. FREE SPEECH is beginning to see its finish. Public officials the servants of the people, dare not be criticized without being sent to jail and for our part we cannot see anything which the Bar Association promulgates which is in union and for the common people. We saw this same Association hound Judge Carlos Hardy and when its case was presented to the Senate a body truly representative of the people, we saw then pernicious plans thwarted at every turn. Therefore if this same predjudiced Bar Association which refuses in its membership, lawyers of integrity, of honor and merit, solely upon the hypothesis of color it will not hesitate to strike at the champion of the weak and lowly. However in doing so, they have but put the crown of martyrdom upon the head of Shuler and he will triumphantly march on as the foremost crusader of all time for civic righteousness. In line with our preachment—Be something! Have Something! Do Something! The forward looking movement by the formation of the Central Ave. Business Club is a step in the right direction and we are sure to realize vast benefits from the same. It will accuminate the slogan "Don't Spend Your Money Where You Can't Work" and it will set the fires a glowing for economic freedom. We like its officers—There are no high hatters, but they are men who do business. Curtis Mosby is the right man in the right place, he is the largest employer of his group in this section and has by right of merit, the qualifications to lead in this new day of effort. For Vice-President there are none who will say that Norman O. Houston is lacking in any of the elements for business leadership and on down the line is no question mark after any one of them. Therefore we say again there is no question of the vast good which the Business Club will accomplish for the economic advancement for the group. We cannot look back, nor must we look to the right or left, but straight ahead of us if we reach the goal. We are fully aware of the impediments, such as protestations from the new do wells, looking for a "Program which will not be" neither from the moss back, for the scales have not fallen from their eyes, but the forward looking up to now citizen, who really want to get somewhere are on their way and these impediments are but chaff or not unlike "the baseless fabric of a vision" which have not a rack behind.

In and about the City Hall politics, especially that pertaining to the race for Governor is the main topic. The San Francisco entry in the "August Classic" James Rolph, Jr., is busy with conferences, and in perfecting his campaign organization. Buron Fitts, the "Southern entry," will open his San Francisco headquarters at 753 Market St. Harry Glensor, prominent in the affairs of the American Legion, is slated as campaign manager. In order to even up matters it is rumored that Representative Joe Crail, 10th Congressional district, is being induced to enter as a candidate in the race for the gubernational primary nomination. Little has been heard from Ex-Governor Richardson during the past few months, although he has been quietly touring the northern county's. The calm which precedes the storm, probably. It is going to be an interesting event; this contest for Governor, but it should not over shadow the great importance of keeping an eye on the progress of other issues. It is the Legislature that enacts the laws. It is the Legislature that places in the Statutes laws for us to obey; laws which will have a far reaching effect in the welfare and material progress of the State. Citizens of the 23rd Assembly District of San Francisco, knowing the worth of their representative, Hon Joseph Gilmore, are very anxious that he consent to stand for reelection. Thomas F. Bovles; auditor for the city of San Francisco since 1909, succumbed to the "Grim Reaper" May 3rd after a short illness. Successively, news boy; manager of the San Francisco Bulletin, member, Board of Education, he was elected Auditor 1909 and in the eyears succeeding, re-elected by increasing majorities. Tom Bovle had a pleasing personality, which combined with a deep sense of Loyalty, indebted him to his many friends. He will be missed greatly. Before leaving the Capital City, "Sacramento, we learned of the splendid preparations being made for the reception of delegates to the Pan-American Reciprocal Trade Conference which meets in that city. It is one of the most important of the Trade conferences slated for the year. It is of vital importance to the Pacific Coast States, and of interest to the Nation. It will mean an increased trade between the states bordering on the Pacific, and our Latin American neighbors to the South. Experiments have been made in the shipment of California fruits and other products to the Orient. Specially designed refrigerator ships were used. It is stated, unofficially, that the experiment was a success, and that new markets were opened for the sale of products raised on the Pacific Coast. There is still some land where tilling can be made profitable. This column has long advocated the advisability of its occupation by Negro farmers of experience. Delay is dangerous. Now!" Prohibition continues still to hold the spot light in National politics. "To be or not to be," "Dry," "Moderate" or "Wet." Those are the questions which are the "Night Mare." of candidates for election or re-election, to our Law making bodies of the Nation. Southern representatives are "Dry" or at least the vote that way when the issue is presented. Professional reformers and "Boot-leggers" are Dry? Because they would otherwise lose their source of revenue. Of these latter, the Reformer promised that our prisons would be converted into useful structures: They are filled to overflowing. The "Boot Legger" is Dry? to keep the prisons full. Lets do way with both. Reformer and Boot Legger. Modify or repeal the Law. Return to sanity and the benefit to be derived by Temperance through education. The Railroad Commission of the State of South Carolina has ruled that no Pullman Sleeping Car shall be allowed to operate in the State without a white man in charge. On short runs it is the custom to have "Porters in charge" that is the designation given them. No difference what their responsibility; the town Conductor was never given them, when a porter is assigned to run in charge it is given because the Company wishes to economize. It saves the salary of a conductor. Rarely, if ever is the porter in charge given an increase in his wage. If given the increase is a ninsignificant one. From an economic viewpoint the Southern Carolina order has little effect. Of course it would be very galling to the descendants of "Lady Baltimore" to have a dusky clad in uniform saying, "Sleeping car tickets, please!" "Gee! if Cole Blease or Helflin happened to be on that train! Fire works! Verbal fire works so hot they would quench the fire of h... and brimstone. We have before us a letter denouncing our stand against churches and religion. The sender is wrong. We believe there is TOO MANY CHURCHES: TOO LITTLE RELIGION. There will be a big fight to retain office in the Grand Lodge's of Negro Fraternals this Summer POLITICS. If the majority of preachers would pay as great attention to the creating of a religious morale as they do to the attempt to play, politics there might be a greater interest in things spiritual. It is written Mother's Day, in the singular, you will observe. Not Mother's Day. This puts it right up to you, as an individual. For each of us Sunday will be other's Day, whether our mothers be near or far Whether gone before or still with us in the land of the living. A loving letter, a substantial gift, a personal visit—these are the means by which those of us still fortunate enough to have our mothers may demonstrate our affections. For those who have looked for the last time on the dear face of her who was their "ever present help in time of trouble" in the turbulent days of childhood, there is the opportunity for retrospection, for rendedication of self to those principles for which motherhood in its spirit of exalted love, devotion and self sacrifice so pre-eminently stands. Abraham Lincoln, at the pinnacle of his career, said: "All that I am I owe to my angel mother." Too often we think of ourselves as self-made. Our little triumphs, or personal successes we attribute to our worth and ability. But if we have won to any place of prominence, if we have achieved anything worth while, if we have put selfishness behind us and sacrificed for an ideal, if we have waged a good fight against grasping gree dor have rendered a service to some wronged or injured-fellow, be sure the inspiration is one that may be traced back to our mothers. Man is never so noble as when bowing in humble acknowledgement of the debt he owes to mother love. Women are never so lovely as when doing a mother's work, whether for children of their own flesh and blood or for those of others. It is eminently fitting that there should be Mother's Day services in the churches Sunday, for mother's love is the nearest akin to divine love that we on the earth can know. Lincoln, paying highest tribute to his mother but voiced the sentiments of the Master himself during his earthly sojourn. But presence at such a service is not enough. Something more personal is required. Mother Love is your most precious heritage. Do not neglect it. MOTHER'S DAY (Mother's Day May 11) Some Negro "Friends" Parker Fight Shows Up By: A. N. P. WASHINGTON, MAY 7- The hitter fight being waged on the floor of the United States senate over the confirmation of the appointment of Judge John J. Parker, North Carolina, as an associate justice of the United States Supreme Court, has served to reveal to the observant Negro that men in high public office who, in times of peace may operate under the banner of understanding friendship for the Negro will, when a great emergency arises, too up and lack the moral courage to fight for a great human issue. The well-organized and 'industrious' campaign against the confirmation of Parker conducted by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People under the personal leadership of Walter F. White has put the backs of a large number of the United States Senators to the wall. The strength of the Negro opposition, added to that afforded by the labor interests, fighting confirmation through the American Federation of Labor, has been sufficient to place Parker's fate in the balance and to cause the administration to use every available means to insure Parker's confirmation. The administration forces are aware that without the battle waged by the N. A. I. A.C. P., the labor people could have been $^{2}$ steam rolled, but strength of the Negro's vote in the north, demanding justice in an issue involving the Negro's citizenship caused the administration to exert every effort to whip senators into line. Republican senators from the north aristocracy argue for Parker's confirmation and against convictions which they say they have about the Negro's citizenship. One of them is Henry J. Allen of Kansas. Allen declares that he hates like everything to go against his colored friends in the state of Kansas, but he just must vote for Parker, as though the advancement of one white man, holding biased opinions, was of greater importance to him than the citizenship status of twelve million other and equal citizens of the United States. Says Gillett of Massachusetts: "I offer absolutely with Judge Parker in his views about the Negro, but I'll have to vote for him and urge other senators to do so because Judge Parker is no worse than most other southerners who hold the same views that he does." That's a beautiful sentiment to come from the state of Massachusetts, an acknowledgment from the representative of a great state that the moralities of a great issue, recognized by him, are to have no influence in his decisions. Gillett admits that Parker is wrong, but decides to vote for him anyway. Then scholarly Simeon Fess of Ohio, the administration leader, who has been fooling negroes in his state for many years with his learned protestations of friendship for them, renounces all the benefits of his learning to complain against the Negro's insistence that his friends standup for him in a crises like the present one. As this article is written, not a Republican friend of the Negro has arisen to plea his cause, although there are some who will stick to him and vote against Parker. The best words have been said by Democrat, by Senator Wagner of New York. The Republicans have been a unit in the effort to place in jeopardy the Negro's citizenship and to depreciate his attempts to protect himself. Into the senate records, Overman of North Carolina has placed letters and documents from nondescript and discredited Negroes in North Carolina to offset the effect of the true desire of the Negro race. One letter is from and indicted lawyer. Another is from the president of Shaw University whom the alumni of the institution are seeking to remove. Another is from an inconsequential official of some sort of tailors' organization. Deneen of Illinois has been superbly quiet. Glenn of Illinois, though he has not spoken from the floor, has let his position be known. He will vote against Parker. Watson of Indiana who tries to act like he is at home when he is with negroes in his state. Adam of the negroes follow orders. And the nity of it is that these men who have been subjected to a terrific lobby from the administration complain that the Negro and labor interests are trying to bludgeon them into doing something they don't want to do. Just think of Fess of Ohio. "I won't let them bludgeon me," exclaims. But he's getting some sure enough doubt about where he is, and doubt is to know. The brunt of the fight against Parker has been carried on by Senator William E. Bergh, who oldly enough holds in about the same view in regard to the Negro citizenship rights that Parker has sentator Wagner and Senator Walsh. Most of the argument has centered around Parker's so-called "Red Jackett" decision in which, according to Borah, he enjoined union miners against peaceful persuasion among non-union workers. However, another angle was presented in the fight with the introduction of a statement that Parker in the prosecution of a war claims case had withheld evidence which would have shown the defendant guilty in an effort to discredit the Democratic administration. Throughout the week, Parker has been dispatching letters to Washington to explain things about his past: Convicts Die Like Rats In A Trap; Keys Misplaced While Fire And Smoke Take Their Toll (By: W. C. T. Ayres, Sr.) COLUMBUS, OH10. May I What is termed the most appalling catastrophe of modern times occurred here, when fire and smoke swept through the Ohio Penitentiary striking terror into the hearts of the 4,900 inmates and snuffing out the lives of three hundred men who were trapped like rats in a trap. As the smoke and flames lashed their fury against the old south wing of the prison the air was rent with the screams, curses, and pathetic calls for help and freedom. At 4:30 P. M., when most of the men had been returned to their cells for the evening, the fire was discovered in I and K cell blocks, the newly constructed ranges of the prison. Many pathetic stories are recounted how many of the men attempted to unlock or break down the bars of their cells in an effort to reach a place of safety. Due to the fact that no fire drills had been practiced the guards were at loss as to what they should do keys for the cell block were misplaced, guards without specific instructions, and cries of dying men added to the conclusion. For the moment the entire morale of prison discipline was forgotten. From all reports more thought was given to preventing an outbreak than saving the lives of the prisoners. Upon the arrival of the many fire companies the fire was soon under control, but not before 319 inmates had died from fire burns, and suffocation. Calls was sent out for Doctors, Nurses, Policemen, Deputy Sheriffs, National Guardmen who were needed to attend the dying, subdue the unruly, and prepare the dead for burial. Many stories of gowardice on the part of some of the guards; heroism on the parts of others, who along with many of the prisoners braved the flames to release the inmates who were entrapped in the burning building. Race, creed, color, and rank were forgotten. Black men, white men, guard, and prisoner, worked side beside. Here a Negro was seen carrying a dying white prisoner to safety; a white prisoner working over the unconscious man was negro, opuntia, words rushed into the burning building to bring out a convict. One of the guards topples over, prisoners rush in to carry him to a place of safety. "One Touch of Nature makes the whole World World." According to stories told by prisoners, both white and colored, two Negro prisoners were killed when they attempted to escape from one of the cells. This story was related to an Ohio State Journal Reporter by a white life-timer, who refused to give his name for fear of punishment. "This one guard was the worst coward that I ever saw," he said. "I feel sorry for him if he ever shows his face inside the prison again. It wasn't so bad when he just refused to open the gates, but then I and my partner who had been freed by Guard Little, went to this coward and begged him to open the doors and again he refused. My partner had a heavy chisel and he offered it to the two colored boys locked in the cell. The guard tried to take it away from the men, but they refused and went to work on the lock, fighting to get out. The guard said: "Give me that chisel or I'll shoit you" at the same time cursing loudly. They refused and he fired twice. We saw both men fall, and the guard ran from the tier, taking the keys with him. I don't know where the guard went with the keys, but we heard that he had been arrested by the Warden." The story of the arrest was denied by prison officials but at the same time they refused to tell where the guard was. Still stories of unheard of bravery were told concerning guards. Little and Baldwin, who risked their lives in an effort to release many of the prisoners. Securing the keys from another guard they rushed here and there carrying men to safety until they, too, were overcome by smoke and collapsed. "Big Jim" Morton, a white Cleveland bank robber, was one of the outstanding heroes. He saved many of the entrapped in the cell block. "A Negro convict named Tucker carried out six men before he died, Herbert Caldwell, another Negro, almost lost his life in his attempt to save the lives of others. A Negro came to the aid of Mrs. P. E. Thomas, the warden's wife, when she fainted during the excitement. He supported her on his arm and fainted her and gave her water to revive her. Another story concerning the courage of an unnamed convict. I can walk, leave loose," said a big strapping six-foot Negro who had been dragged by three white men from the interior of the cell-block ruins. His rescuers withdrew their support. He straightened up brushed a brawny hand across a pathetically seared face, and headed down the path to the hospital. He took several resolute steps, then faltered and plunged face downward into a pool of water. He managed to roll over on his side. "I can't walk," he muttered. "Lay me down." They did. And he was dead. About 1:30 A. M. Tuesday, the bodies of the 319 prisoners who lost their lives were taken to the Ohio BY THE DEACON CONTEMPT OF COURT Contempt of Court is dangerous It's a thing you should not commit; It means at least five days. In the jail house you will s.t. If you interfere with justice, And your act is revealed; Then, say good-bye to freedom For your doom is sealed. When a contempt is committed, Before Hizoners judicial eyes; If the calpirit goes to prison He should not be surprised. If you should commit contempt, While Hizoner is asleep; And a citation is issued, Hold your hands, and weep. Contempt may be committed, When you are miles away, From the Temple of Justice, Where Hizoner holds full sway. If you whisper on the air Something Hizoner should do; Then bend your knees and pray, For the mountains to fall on you. When you are charged with contempt You may smile and laugh. If Hizoner should forbid you To open your mouth and speak; Then silence will be golden If you close your beak. Remember, the sins of omission Are as grievous in his sight. As the sins of commission Committed in the night. If you should say Hizoner, Is a notorious crook; That is contempt of Court As written in the book. When you speak of Hizoner, To fail you would not go. Let your communication be; Yea, Yea and No, No. Some Facts About Negro Farmers A marked, trend toward diversification on the part of Negro farmers is recorded in the recently published report submitted by Dr. C. W. Warburton, director of the United States Agricultural Extension Service to the Secretary of Agriculture. Negro farmers" the report stated "did more diversified farming and participated more generally in cooperative undertakings th never before. Negro extension agents in sections of Oklahoma and Alabama, wishing to promote dairying, organized tours of their farmers to Starkville, Mississippi that they might see for themselves; the prosperity of Negro farmers in Mississippi who have included far midairing in their farm enterprises. One outstanding extension event in Lowndes County, Alabama was a co-operative turkey sale in which six carloads of turkeys were handled. Approximately 90 percent of the turkeys brought into this sale were raised and owned by Negro farmers, the majority of them tenants. Credit for the success of this sale was given the Negro agent in this country. "Perhaps the outstanding work of Negro home demonstration agents was in child care, health and sanitation in rural Negro homes. Their food production and preservation work was also very successful. On the whole the record of Negro extension work for the year in all lines is a highly creditable one. Much progress has been made." The Federal Department in Negro Extension Work is represented by two field agents; T. M. Campbell of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, whose district comprises the gulf states and J. B. Pierce of Hampton, Virginia, whose district includes the northern section of the southern states.

The other club members helped to make the affair a success. The rain must have kept the fair Delphis at home for only two of them were present. OPEN LETTER Dear Editor: A few words about those race forum meetings at the library. They are one of the most successful organizations of its kind ever held in Pahadak. I have attended every meeting held so far at the library, rain or shine. At one meeting I was told that there were five college instructors and several professional men of different race, but $I have seen only one Negro minister ever attend and he got up and angrily left because someone stepped on his doctrinal toes. Will some of the readers tell me why the narrow-minded, backward Negro minister does not attend these meetings? Whatever their ideas they could co-operate. Yours truly, A SINNER.

OPEN LETTER OPEN LETTER Sharnette Floyd, Organist; First A. M. E. Church. Dear Madam; To quote your letter of week before last, "To that cracked egg, etc." I would be willing to bet that you are a cook, Mrs. Floyd; for no other reason than your mention of eggs. (1) You expressed your pity for me because I could not sit under the voice of Mr. Pickens "every minute of my life." Thanks dear organist, you apparently are a kind hearted creature. (2) You mentioned that Mr. Pickens should speak mostly to the other group (I suppose you mean the whites.) Madam, either you are half asleep or else you are under the spell of an illusion, for if you look around you will find that the sons and daughters of Ham are their own worst enemy, and not the white man or any other race; hence they could stand, all of them, to hear Pickens and many others who come with a message of admonishment. Some of the remarks in your letter prove that you Negroes need a "Voice of The A. M. E. choir could sing better Pickins" or some one else to wake you up, constantly. (3) Says you, than if ever dreamed." Whopee! (4) Listen to your self once again. "The choir of the First A. M. E. church has taken Friday evenings for its rehearsals for a number of years (how many I wonder) and plans to keep it without changing it for YOUR MR. PICKENS, or anyone else* * * There now. I guess those few lines will find me sizzling. And may I add, that if Christ Himself should drop in some Friday evening you would still be rehearsing, no?

This weakness permeates your home life, your school life (I am told) your club life, your church life, and every area of activity. Mrs. Floyd, I have never met you formally, but since your letter of last week, I had you pointed out to me. You must think that I am making fun of your choir. I am not. I am glad to see them take interest in singing. Yet I do think that your choir should co-operate when mass meetings are held for the purpose of advancing the cause of the Negro. The following incident will explain why I hesitate to sign my name to the open letters: A friend or my acquaintance once refused to buy a 25c ticket to a church function. A few weeks later this same friend needed a job and was told that the person who was selling the tickets knew of a good position. He went to this person and asked after the job. They told him that they did not know of any place. This was a lie, as I later found out. The reason that he was refused the job was because he failed to buy a 25 cent ticket. The truth was that he could not spare the money at that time. Since that time he has learned that it paid to stand in with these Pasadena colored people as much as you can. For this reason I hesitate to sign my name for fear that some one will accuse me of trying to tear up church choirs, and consequently make it hard for me where I am employed. I have many obligations and cannot afford to lose my job at present. Hello friends. Here I come with some more dope, bigger and better than ever. From the looks things "Dot" got an extra dose.

Alma Coleman in: There exists in our own group numerous organizations that function chiefly or caring for the sick and burying the dead. At a recent grand session of one of those numerous families of fraternal organization they resolved to launch out into the business world, to project business enterprises, such as will give employment to many of our thousands of young educated Negroes. Similar resolutions should be inaugurated in all organizations whether fraternal or religious or social. If society was organized on the right basis the situation with our group might not be so grave. There would be no such thing as race jobs or color positions. The individual would gravitate naturally toward that job among his fellowmen for which he or she was best adapted. Since this however, is not now the case and we are confronted with a biracial industrial system, thousands of young men and women of our group are forced into places, not adapted to their well groomed talents and often into idleness because they find nothing profitable to do. And you cannot justly attribute it to lack of thrift and efficiency. Racial prejudice forces this situation. These societies that are caring for the sick and burying the dead are doing commendable social service in that line, but, along this new line they broaden the sphere of their legitimate activity and service to society. I understand in the State of California alone there is among Negro fraternal organizations combined a financial reserve fund of more than a half million dollars. This amount is horded chiefly in the banks. What would this mean to the industrial life of her people of the State if even half of this amount was released in business enterprises for the race? It would not only furnish remuneration and employment, but much needed training in the principles and methods of business and commerce. Suppose this course pursued was universal. What an impetus and power would thus be given to the life of the race in the business world. We have Negroes capable to master most professions known to civilization. We have Negroes who can make everything necessary for our com- The Silent Thing." Permelia White in: "Talkies" Caroline Benson in "The Messenger of The Gods." "Billie" Emma Clark in "Bogas Babies."

As a further campaign to offer surprisingly low prices and best values to eastside buyers, the 28 and Central Market Grocery Department is offering Rainier beer at a nickel a bottle, while the market department has attracted the attention of the whole city by leading a drive to sell nothing but the freshest meats to the trade, at the lowest prices. fort and pleasure—shoes, clothing, hats, furniture, automobiles and airplanes. We have mechanics, engineers, architects, carpenters, surveyors, painters, sculptors, printers, cobblers, tailors, bricklayers and stone masons and many other meritable vocations. Why are we not independent? Any one of those numerous families organized for the purpose of caring for the sick and burying the dead and saving souls would start a national campaign for industrial, commercial and economic interest of the race? We have had examples of such movements laying bare at our threshold for more than 300 years and there are new mergers of commercialism popping up like mushrooms every day until everything necessary for human comfort and pleasure are controlled and maintained by organized influence. The Negro is crying almost aloud for another Booker, T. Washington. Are we to continue to allow the masters of our organizations to immerse us into their pools of self aggrandisement (his sole objective) with no visible sign of progressiveness? Why are we spending our lives in toil and sacrifice that our children may be educated and making no provisions for their employment? You listened to our so-called leaders exclaim, "Give us a chance." What chance? Do you expect him to turn his boy and girl out and invite your boy and girl in? That would be an unnatural condition for him to pursue and no rational minded man expects it. And still we continue to contribute to the various organizations that they may be able to employ some high-powered orator to travel from coast to coast singing that aged worn song "Prejudice" and "Time," is the only solution, forget lack of opportunity, oppression, tolerate segregation. We have wealth, property and education. What other possessions necessary to make us a great race? Common sense! Some have said it is the lack of confidence, to my mind that is a perfectly absurd conclusion. There has always existed good and evil, and ever shall as long as exist human consciousness. Why should we condemn the entire race for one individual's omission? There has lived and always shall live a Judas in all races and ages. Why should such a condition slacken our courage and dilute our energy? Remember only from the wounds and bruises of the world comes the healing. Only from its suffering comes its greatness. Only from its dark chambers of anguish emerges its graces and abiding comforts. Cruelty is not far behind pleasure, lust is the child of lightness, and beneath the smooth surface of the sensulist lurks the horror of heartlessness; sensativeness is not to be coddled, but to be OVERCOME. May Negro organizations, fraternal religious, civic and social—construct, expand, formulate and operate. Go on, on and on, forget your wounds, never mind your bruises upon your soul; despise the danger, drop regret, brush aside premonitions and observe the development of humanity, the principles of civilization and the merits of manhood. Thus, you can behold the result of strength and faith. Strive as we may to divide our energies civilly, socially and financially, we are slowly but surely being forced into one massive organization. We must prepare for the precipitous war now confronting us. We will find ourselves submerged in 'peril with men to fight but not skilled in the science of war. No guns, no ammunition—a vast army of willing men, but no generals to lead them The impending peril that awaits the Negro is the social, economic and commercial war and if the Negro is to survive, he must surely prepare. The beckoning hand of progress and success awaits his approval. Time is infinite. The place has no limit. More Former Slaves Living Than Masters By: A.N.P. BIRMINGHAM, ALA. May 5—That there are more "former slaves" living than "former masters" was the opinion expressed here by Simon Phillips, president of the Alabama ex-Slave Association, upon his return home from an extended tour of the State, on which he "looked up" former slaves and masters. Mr. Phillips further declared that he found two former slaves who had reached the age of 104 years and who were yet hale and hearty and able "to move under their own power." Another tour will be staged within the next two months according to the statement of the president. threatened to take the lead, but it was not until the seventh inning, could the locals get going and in this frame two runs were scored. In the opening game Saturday, Shaw of the stars was in mid-season for mand for nine innings turned the Giants back scorer while his teammates scored three runs off of Mc Donald.

The American Giants avenged the defeat handed them in the opening game by the Detroit Stars here Saturday, by winning both games of the double header Sunday afternoon. Strange as it may seem, both of the Sunday's games were won by a 3-2 score, and in each battle the Giants were forced to play the catch-up roll until near the end of the game. The curtain raiser was a pitching coel between Cooper of the Stars and Holsey of the Giants. The stars hoped into the lead by scoring two runs in the first inning. The Giants bunched hits in the second and third frames for one score tying the game up. Rallying in the eighth inning the Giants pushed over the wining run. In the second game of the doubleheader, the Stars again took the lead in the first inning by scoring twice. Powell held the locals scorless until the fourth when one run was pushed across.

This week finds us some six hundred miles from the Eagle's next twelve miles out of the above city on a 320 acre ranch owned by Mr. and Mrs. Richard Logan who at this moment, Sunday, May 4th are celebrating their fifteenth wedding anniversaries. * * * And my what a sight to see. Over 200 relatives ranging from wives and husbands to greatgrand children and distant relatives. Some who had not met in 30 years or more. It was a laugh a second. City folks trying to be country folks. Horses and Broncos that refuse to let city folks ride them. Cows that wont stand to be milked by town folks, chickens, gunnie fowls, monkeys and peacocks, that stay away from you until you think nature has already cursed you and made you ugly looking. **** Shot guns and rifles in use every day that kill anything yet we town folks excuse, even them, of refusing to shoot straight. It is a scream I tell you. Attorney Ben Logan of Frisco ainted a 50-30 at a bear fifty feet away and believe it or not, he actually missed the bear and killed a house fly on the wing 500 yards away and to the left of the object aimed at. The modest attorney led a procession of some 200 folks into camp when he found he had killed a horse tily instead of a 300 pound bear. Don't laugh folks. This incident one of many that might broke up the party. And the Hon. Wm. Conley a horseman in days of yore had his pride rudely shocked when he attempted to saddle a young mustang some 40 years younger than him my. my. lady attorney who arrived on the scene from Oakland in a sharp looking Willis's Knight displayed her temper to no dvlv when her Knight balked and refused to enter the premises when it spied a mule with its rear end 'pointed at' the radiator. It took some 35 husky farmers assisted by several tender roots from town wearing white collars to remove Maud. But why tell more you should have been there when some 40 ladies from town whose faces have not seen water in years due to the use of cosmetics, side-stepped the wash basin and towl in the morning before breakfast, a customary country habit indulged in by both men and women. A certain Sacramento lady threatened to masacree poor Emmet Logan who was forced to hide in the basement for 2 hours. Well you who read this should of been there. Time will not permit me to exhibit more proof of what happened. Suffice to say though it will be along time before some city folks can be induced to become country fakes again. As for me I am ready for my next lesson. We see the camera man caught Doc Baumann holding a 11 1-2 pound Bass the other day. The picture in this respect speaks for itself but what we are interested to learn is who caught th Bass. We're going to this time at least assume that the man caught holding the Bass caught the Bass. However Doc next time your picture is caught with you holding such a valuable prize why let us see your fishing outit on you, for any one can hold a Bass in a business suit. But I repeat I'm going to this time give you credit by accusing you of having caught the Bass. Say by the way is my prescription filled. Thanks. ```markdown ``` If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened POLITICAL POT PIE The entry of Mr. LaPlante to contest for County Assessor against the incumbent, Mr. Ed. Hopkins, if nothing else, just breaks the monotony of the occasion, but believe me he will have to go some to dislodge the genial, courteous and obliging Ed. Hopkins, who has proved his worth and competency for lo these many years. Great big lazy men should find some other occupation than waiting around for political campaign times, with the hope of getting hold of some easy going candidate to skin. The Political Clearing House up at C. H. Alston's place is about to bring action against interlopers and falsifying the board. For this reason a special session is being called on the the 17th for the purpose of putting them out. For instance the poll made at the Clearing House on last Monday showed a tie vote on the water bonds, and again the vote on governor was bunched. One member declared this situation the bunk, and charged flatly that the ballot box was being stuffed. F. M. Roberts, veteran legislator, says: "I haven't seen nothing yet." We hear the famous "Deacon" is going to cast his hat in the ring for judicial honors. Now never forget Attorney E. C. Jennings could fill such a position with the highest honor and credit. He is fair and square, judicially inclined. We just simply heard this rumor and give it for what it is worth, at any rate if he decides to run just tab us for him. Judge Sheldon of the Municipal Court, will aspire for the Superior bench at the approaching elections. He will without doubt be a formable contender and will give a good account of himself every step in the race. ☆ ☆ ☆ Now for the wild scramble for who is to be the next Supervisor to succeed the late Supervisor .Mr. McClellan. It goes without saying, inasmuch as the Governor has the appointing of this one man to serve until his successor is elected, Governor Young will make the most of it. The Rolph Campaign and who is to be the Generalissimo to line up colored voters for Rolph is worrying quite a few, so we hear. It is a case where many patriots feel called and only one to be chosen. The question is—who will that one be? Candidate Fitts Fires Opening Gun in Race For Governor Northern, Calif., May 4—In a strong appeal for Republican party harmony in which he paid tribute to President Hoover as the party's greatest leader, District Attorney Buron Pitts of Los Angeles County today addressed the thousands of Northern Californians gathered to celebrate the 53rd May day anniversary at Dixon, California. Urging strong party loyalty and strict adherence to party principles and pledges, Pitts said that any attempt to weaken the influence of Hoover in California Republican circles will be aggressively opposed. He pledged that if elected Governor in the forthcoming campaign he will take a leading part in guaranteeing a Hoover delegation to the Republican National Convention in 1922. He said: "We are just beginning in California a state-wide political campaign in which numerous candidates are seeking party nominations to important State offices. These nominations, made in August, are submitted to the voters in November, And so, at this early stage of our appeal for confidence and support, it is well to take stock of our problems and know that we fully understand our situation." Federal and State government in the United States is administered under a party system that permits both dindividuals and organizations to present their policies and principles to the people at large, and the people thus are able to weigh arguments and reach decisions according to their views concerning the issues submitted to them. Economic, social and political conditions in the country at large and in the various States have developed a division of political sentiment in two and the Democratic party, with several minor organized or unorganized major groups—the Republican party groups constituting what might be called an expression of some specific class or social economic opinion. In addition to this natural grouping under party designations there is another tendency in this country and in this State, a tendency to set up the individual over he party, to evade party responsibilities and party ideals, and bestow upon a person or a group of persons unlimited political powers and preferment and thus nullify and destroy the effectiveness and the solidarity of party organization. The tendency is not limited to any party; for it finds its inspiration in the breasts of those whose personal ambitions are stronger than party principles and party loyalty and whose personal following would wreck the constructive and continuing benefits of party effort. It is a dangerous tendency. Race Man Candidate For Superior Judge Race Man Candidate For Superior Judge Yielding to the earnest pleas of a host of his friends and fellow citizens Atty E. C. Jennings distinguished member of the local bar and president of the Los Angeles Blackstone Club; yesterday made formal announcements JOHN H. HARRIS ATTORNEY E. C. JENNINGS, President of the Blackstone Club and Candidate for Judge Superior Court, Los Angeles County. of his intention to become a candidate for Judge of Superior court at the forthcoming elections. Mr. Jenings has had a long and successful career at the bar and is eminently qualified to occupy with dignity and honor the high place to which he aspires. The announcement was contained in a communication addressed to G. Walter Snell, chairman of the Jennings for judge committee, who for several weeks have been engaged in an effort to persuade Mr. Jennings to enter the superior court judgement race. Eugene Clarkson Jennings was born at Louisville, Kentucky June 9, 1870 educated in the public schools of his native state, served as a clerk in the United States census bureau from 1899 to 1903 graduating from the law department of Howard university with the degree of L. L. B. in the latter year he was admitted to practice law in all the courts of the state of Kentucky, practiced law at Louisville for two years. In 1905 moved to the state of Washington, where he was engaged in the practice of Law until December 1919 at which time he came to Los Angeles and was admitted to practice in all the Courts of California. He is married and live's at 1144 East Adams Street Los Angeles. Leading colored residents of Los Angeles and prominent colored organizations throughout the City have emphatically indorsed the $38,800,000 Water Bonds issue to be voted May 20. Pointing out that the Water Bonds will not cost one cent of taxes or affect assessments in any way, ministers, business men, professional men and women, and civil leaders have heartily voiced their approval of the issue and urged citizens to, work and vote for the Bonds. The Charlotta 'Bass Republican Study Club of South Los Angeles (located at Watts) states in an indorsement addressed to the Citizen-Water and Power Committee: "Los Angeles is face to face with an actual water shortage and unless the $38,800,000 Water Bonds issue to be voted May 20, carries property values in the city will suffer." "The communication is signed by Mrs. C. Shones, president; and Mrs. Augusta McCallister, Mrs. Grace L. Boswell and M. B. Wright.

California at its regular meeting held April 27th, 1930, adopted the following resolutions: Whereas, by act of the Congress of the United States appropriations from the Treasury being made therefor, the "Gold Star Mothers" those having sons or husbands who gave their lives in the World War, will be given a trip to the graves of their loved ones at the expense of the United States; a tribute which we, the members of the Los Angeles Forum, hardly endorse; but Whereas, it is generally reported that by orders issued by the War Department, this sacred undertaking is to be made a vehicle for race prejudice, discrimination, segregation and humiliation to the mothers and wives of our heroic dead, therefore be it Resolved that we, the members of the Los Angeles Forum, do strenuously protest such attempted humiliation before the eyes of the world of these loyal mothers and wives of our beloved dead, they, who filled with the belief that they were offering their lives to make the world "Safe for Democracy," and with the Shibboleth of "Rights of Minorities" singing in their ears and hearts, laid down their lives as a sacrifice on the altar of human brotherhood. In the name we condemn such attempted action which, if consumed, will be the darkest blot upon the pages of the history of our country, and stamping as hypocricy the assertions by and the efforts of this government toward World Peace which can never be realized until race prejudice is eliminated and human brotherhood recognized. Therefore, be it Resolved, that we do earnestly appeal to President Herbert Hoover that he, as Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy, to have rescinded any orders segregating the bereaved mothers of our soldier dead, to the end that the unity of our common country be closer cemented by the sympathetic sorrow in the hearts of its noble women of every race, the mothers of those martyrred defenders of our country's honor and of its flag, whether of high or low degree. Further, be it Resolved, that a copy of these resolutions be transmitted to President Herbert Hoover, a copy to the War Department, and copies to the press for publication. C. S. STAFFORD.. Pres. Chicago Whip Campaign Brings 2,600 Jobs Chicago Whip Campaign Brings 2,600 Jobs By: A.N.P. CHICAGO, May 7—That more that 2,600 Negro men and women had secured jobs directly or indirectly through the campaign conducted by the Chicago Whip was revealed a statement issued by A.C. McNeal, general manager of the publication who with James Hale Porter and Big Bill Tate, former heavyweight prize-fighter, has carried on the drive against merchants on the southside who profitted from Negro patronage, but who refused to give employment to the members of the group. Working on the theory that "enough talk had been done and it was now time for action," the WHIP officials launched this campaign several months ago. The ground work was laid when a survey of the enterprises on the Southside showed that there were some 5,000 jobs which should be available to Negroes. With this information a corps of efficient workers was assembled, under the leadership of the above named trio and the battle was on. Under the slogan "Do Not Spend Your Money Where You Can Not Work." these workers set out on their task. neighborhood clubs were addressed by fifty-four minute speakers, and churches on the Southside were invaded. To acquaint the citizens on the Southside with the conditions faced by them, which kept so many qualified workers out of jobs, more than 60,000 copies of the Whip were distributed free, more than 125,000 pieces of literature circulated and during the seven months of campaigning more than 3,000 gatherings, large and small, were addressed. How well the work has been carried on is indicated in the results attained, of which the 2,600 jobs form just a part. According to the belief of the campaigners in addition to the material benefit in the form of jobs, the campaign has created greater respect for the Negroes on the part of the merchants. Negro workers, who have been placed in these new positions have proved to be reliable efficient, and punctual, with few exceptions, and into their coffers have come some $208,000 per month. Among the results tabulated are: 19 youths have been hired by six laundries, seven registered pharmacists employed, 3 girls and one man in banks, 390 sales people, 142 butchers, and 35 chashers in various enterprises. "We have just started fighting, "declared Mac Neal. "Our goal is 5,000 jobs for our group on the Southside, and we do not intend to relent until this goal is reached. In the past we have had the support of all law enforcing agencies through which we have been able to force the merchants to keep within the law and we expect a continuance of this support. Every corporation and enterprise will be contacted and effort made to secure places for our citizens and nothing but jobs will satisfy us." S. A.

WALKER 6 Frank Hubbard, vice-president of Batten, Burdine, Dartin & Osborn, who has just completed an economic survey of Southern California for the Atwater Kent company. Hubbard declared that Southern California, largely due to the prosperity of agriculture here, is at the present time the most sound section economically in the United States. Dept. of Agriculture Publishes Negro Extension News Negro Extension News is the name of a new quarterly published by the United States Department of Agriculture covering the activities of the United States Extension Service among Negro farmers of the South. Its seventeen pages contain agricultural annotations, accounts of farm projects and excerpts from reports by Negro farm and home demonstration agents. In a forward, Dr. C. W. Warburton director, United States Agriculture all Extension Service, calls attention to the work of the service among Negroes. "A staff of 335 Negro co-operative Extension workers is engaged in carrying to the Negro farmers of the South information on improved farming and home-making methods." He states.

M., the sweet strains of a violin was heard in that soul insinuing song by Carrie Jacobs Bond. "I Love You Truly," when the melody cried away the voices of Elder and Mrs. Johnson charmed all present with this song as a duet. Following this music, the old familiar strains of Mendelssohn's wedding march announced the appearance of the matron of honor. Mrs. Clara Logan, followed by the bride on the arm of her mother. All were beautifully gowned. The bride wore a smart creation of white georgette-crepe, trimmed with pretty ruffles.

Immediately following the ceremony, delicious ice cream and cake were served, after which Mr. and Mrs. Walton left on the evening train for their wedding trip to Los Angeles. They will return the latter part of the week and be at home to their friends at 2177 Everett Ave. The young people were the recipients of many beautiful gifts.

Little Clarence Ferguson. Son of Mrs. Amelia Ferguson of Zamora Mystery of Pierson's Death Unsolved; Town Fights Reports Mystery of Pierson's Death Unsolved; Town Fights Reports CHICAGO. May 7—(A.N.P.)—Ten days after the mysterious and shocking murder of E. D. Pierson, auditor for the National Baptist Convention, whose body was found hanging from a tree on the banks of the Muscatatuck River in Indiana, police and private investigators were still at a loss for shooting Pierson to death, although there were developments in the investigation which led to conjecture regarding the activity of many persons. At the time Pierson's body was found, two brief cases containing his reports were missing but within three days both of these cases were fished out of the river, and destroyed for a time the theory that the murderers had killed Pierson and stolen the reports contained in the brief cases. Discrepancies were said to have been revealed regarding the financial operations of the Herald Publishing Company and throughout Pierce records there were written inferences that he was being impeded in his work by enemies. Two of the latest developments in the case are a denial from the office of A. M. Townsend, chairman of the Sunday School Publishing Board of the National Baptist Convention, of certain charges and inferences drawn against him, and the arrest in Chicago of a man thought to fit the description of mysterious visitor who contausted Pierson a few weeks before he was slain. This man was arrested Wednesday night and gave the name of S. Robustuar. Operatives of the Brueaux National Detective Agency took him into custody when they observed him acting strangely around the Pierson home. He was accompanied by a man named Miles. Questioning at the police station disclosed that Robustuar had been released from Jolie penitentiary in January of this year. He is said to have confessed some complicity in the murder conspiracy, but there is a disposition to doubt the man's sanity and therefore the truth of his story, involving certain Baptist ministers. The following statement was made to the Associated Negro Press from the Nashville office of Dr. A. M. Townsend and was signed by him, J. C. Fields, S. P. Harris, and J. L. Horace: "This statement is made on account of reports that have gotten into the press and that have done great injury to the members of the Sunday School Publishing Board and to the institution itself. "Neither the Sunday School Publishing Board nor any of its members knew anything about Auditor Pierson's departure on Tuesday night. April 15, 1930, nor had any knowledge whatever of anything or any circumstance leading to his death which we greatly deplore. "The statement that no one of the directors nor Townsend himself could be located by state officers or members of the sheriff's office Saturday, and that a thorough search had been instituted and the summons left in their respective offices, is untrue and does great injury to said officers. True, the employees of the Sunday School Publishing Board were not working Saturday for the reason that they are working only five days in the week. But each officer of the part of the day Saturday and no off-Board was in his office for the most cer of the law called upon them nor was any summons found upon the desk of any one of them. "The $22,000 loan that has been paraded in the papers has created the impression that the loan was of recent occurrence. [The truth of the matter is, the loan was a $75,000 loan and was negotiated quite two years ago. There has been no other loan made by the Sunday School Publishing Board since. The matter was taken up and discussed very thoroughly by the directors of the Sunday School Publishing Board and with the late E. D. Pierson, Auditor, and was authorized in the regular course of business. The records show that the loan was regular; that the net proceeds went into the receipts of the business and there was no "juggling" whatever. Not a member of the Board got a dollar out of it. "The purpose of this loan was (1) we needed the money to centralize our obligations, the fragments left from the completion of the building, the paying for the equipment and furnishings, to provide for resuming and extension of our educational work, to satisfy our creditors who had become somewhat restless, because of long strung out accounts necessitated by notes on building, etc., and the object (2) was to establish a larger line of credit for the Sunday School Publishing Board.

Their purpose is to try to uplift their community and to know their political leaders. Mr. Chamis of Los Angeles who is running for Supervisor of Los Angeles county; Mr. A. E. Ficklin and Dr. Christie have been the principal speakers. Mrs. Andrew Wills was elected president of this remarkable club. Among the active members are Mrs. Howard, Gilmore, Holman, Kauffman, Taylor and many others. The colored Long Beach Community young but are progressing rapidly.

We are looking forward to the Convention which will be held in San Diego on the 25th to the 27th. Mr. A. E. Bradley, Exalted Ruler, will be the Long Beach delegate. Some of the ladies who are elegible to become daughter Elks met at the home of Mrs. Bradley, Sunday to organize.

The party was given at the La Vada Recreation Hall on E. Vernon Ave., and more than two hundred guests were present. Music was furnished by the Benjamen Syncopators. Card tables were available for those who did not partake in the dancing. The Los Jardines Art Club was organized five years ago by a group of young mothers who had moved into the Gardens and could not keep in social contact with their friends in the city. It started with ten charter members. The membership was later raised to a limit of sixteen members and as time went on and applications for memberships increased the limit was again raised to twenty-five which was promptly filled. This is the limit now and a large number of names are on the waiting list. Little did the founders of the club dream that the results of their small effort would become the club that is one of the outstanding clubs of Los Angeles. Sunday morning after the eleven o'clock services, the cornerstone of Mt. Olive Baptist Church was replaced with a new one. Despite the inclement weather quite a number of friends and members of the Brothrhood of Mt. Olive Baptist Church attended a lovely tea at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Price 9322 Pace Ave. This was an effort towards their rally on the third Sunday in May. A delightful program was rendered during the afternoon; among the numbers were two beautiful piano selections by little Miss Jessie Armstrong piano solo by Mary Price and another piano solo by Juanita Hayman. These are three of the smaller girls of which the community is very proud Extemporaneous readings were given by Mrs. Gary of Tulare and Mrs. Stella Armstrong of the Gardens. Miss Barnesine traugues of S. Los Angeles favored the visitors with a beautiful piano selection. Miss Mary Jackson rendered a vocal solo, Mrs. Gussie Green two Negro Spirituals. Miss Elmoraine Jackson gave two readings, (one from Dunbar). Mrs. L. Jones sang a solo, Mrs. Eva Payne delighted her hearers, with two concert numbers. Later in the evening Good Old Father Lewis sang "The Revelation." Delicious and fitting refreshments were served. The proceeds were apparently excellent. All the visitors hope that Mr. and Mrs. Price will give another tea soon. All of the friends of the church are invited to come and bring their friends to the rally of the Brotherhood of the Mt. Olive Baptist church Sunday, May 18, all day long. Have you any news for this column?

THE JOLLY FRIENDS DINNER CLUB One of the most brilliant gatherings of the Jolly Friends' Dinner club was that presided over by Mr. and Mrs. William Marcus Moore at their palatial home at Latham and 53rd streets. Their long, narrow table seating 24 was exquisite with the season's rarest blossoms of white, pink, and lavender, while a gayer note was struck in the decorations of the living room. Our charming and carable program chairman Mrs. Leonard Green being absent on account of illness, the program was omitted as this was an opportunity time to pay tribute to mothers. Mrs. Harry Bloggett, the charming daughter of the Moores and the attractive Mrs. Inez Contrell, entertained with many musical and vocal numbers which were indeed pleasing and greatly enjoyed by all.

Taylor, 5127 12 McKinley avenue, Sunday afternoon, May 4, 1930. The home was a beautiful hower of roses, carnations and fern. The color scheme of red, green, white, yellow and blue was so artistically arranged until it was a perfect picture an artist would do well to paint. The birthday cake was truly a work of art; it was white with a colored star in the center, symbolically representing the Great Star of Bethlehem guiding us in the way that all true Eastern Stars must go. The table was beautifully decorated with colored candles and flowers. Mrs. Louise Eldridge, the first Matron of the Chapter, was guest of honor and presided over at the table as befitted a queen. She was gowned in a beautiful beaded rose georgette afternoon frock. Mrs. Lillian Whitten, the hostess, wore a lovely powder blue crepe dechene gown. Mrs. Mattie Durant in a garnet satin frock.

BASS THERE One of the real suprises of the Evening was the elequent address of Mr. J. B. Bass, Editor of the California Eagle who told of the early struggles of his Paper, but how by sticking ever-lastingly-at-it the Paper had taken its place among the leaders of Colored Publications and at the present time had a weekly pay-roll which would be a high credit to any business concern. He said—"At the beginning we did not receive much notice but decided to be up and at 'em as the saying goes and the first thing we knew they were telegraphing in asking for news from this section; then it was not long until the National Negro Press Association took notice, and we were honored by being elected First Vice-President of that organization." "A News-Paper can be of great value to any Community by spreading the right kind of propaganda and what we need today more than anything else is to believe in ourselves. Stop knocking one another and commence building. We have certain People in the Central Avenue District and some of them pretty fair sized Business Men who keeping running to the City Hall and to the District Attorney's Office with their tale-of-woe until the Officers hate to see their faces." This Paper is with the Business monies. We wish to thank Holland Lodge and Electa Chapter for their donations that helped to make the tea a success. We also wish to thank the members and friends for their support also those that took part on the program. If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNJA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened Men Of Central Avenue, from one end to the other, and is proud of it. NORMAN O. HOUSTON Mr. Ben Wowie O. Houston, Commander of Ben Wowie Post American Legion and one of the most active Business Men on the Avenue said in part, "The types of business districts that we maintain are largely created by the mental attitude of the people that make up the districts. Therefore, if we take pride in our community and boost the developments of the community the public assumes the same attitude and the districts are known to be of high standard and progressive. Adversely, if we take no pride in our community and our attitude is not one of development it is known and has a reputation as being a poor and discredited place in which to live or to do business." "The Business Men can help make our section of the City better, first by discouraging adverse propaganda and those things which tend to associate us with graft, immoral living conditions and other things which tear down; second, the Business Men should take a keener interest in all ordiances and zoning which will affect the property values in the places where we do business or live; third, the business interests should enter into a program to improve the physical beauty of our section thereby causing increased property values; and fourth, uniavailable industries or business should be discouraged and prohibited from locating in sections where we are building a better community." GEORGE A. BEAVERS; JR In his talk on the "Need of Cooperation 'Among Business Men'". Mr George A. Beavers, Jr., said: "Just as the President should have the co-operation of the Business Leaders of this Nation in solving National Problems, so should the Mayor, the Chief-OF-Police and other Officials have the cooperation of the Business Men of this great city in solving our City problems. In order to render this service it is necessary for the Business Men 'to work together. Individually we cannot clean up politics, stop graft, render service in civic matters and solve employment problems, but we can accomplish much by working together and this is one of the objects of the Central Avenue Business Men's Club." CHARLES W. CHARLES W. RUSSELL Charles W. Russell, President of the Ventura Exploration Company. Ltd. covered the subject—co-operation between the Police Department and the Business Men. Mr. Russell complimented Chief Steckel and Capt. Hager on their accomplishments in building up a wonderful Police Organization in our Section of the City. "Your Men," said he, treat our People as if they were Human Beings and we appreciate it. It has come to our attention that in many cases in place of your officers being "hard-boiled" and carting petty offenders to Jail, they have talked to the offenders in a nice way, showing them when it was better to do right and in some cases these same offenders are out trying to help keep People right. In one case a Woman with a large family of small children was picked up with a small amount of Liquor in her possession. She was not an habitual offender and was allowed to remain with her Children. Our Jails could be filled in a few days with technical offenders—Man and Women who have in some small way violated the law, yet these same Men and Women are not Criminals at heart. It isn't the large number of arrests that make a Police Department in my judgement, but rather the fewest arrests that are made and keeping down major crime. MOSBY AN IDEAL HOST Curtis B. Mosby acted as Toastmaster, and in his usual clever way kept every minute of the Banquet full of interest. First, his famous Dixieland Blue Blowers did themselves proud with the selections they rendered, ranging all the way from jazz to the classics; then his entertainers were never in better form and on this particular Evening they seemed "full to the bum" with music and finally the Banquet Spread has never been surpassed in any Dimming Room. Chef Harper was at his best. Mr. Mosby spoke encouragingly on the work being done by the Business Men's Organization. He assured those present that he wanted to do his shape at all times. He knew what cooperation meant and he appreciated what had been done for him. He thanked the Officers and Guests for their presence and assured them these Banquets would be held often during the year and they were going to be invited. Albritton-Smith - Shiariiski Case Ends Albritton-Smith - Shiariiski Case Ends (Continued from Page One.) the Pasadena tragedy. SHIARISKI. DEFENDS. SELE KIRKLY DEFENDS SELF The Japanese was put on the stand and shown badges and guis a letter in his own handwriting which he is supposed to have sent to Billy Russell at 9:30 o'clock on the evening of Feb. 22 enlightening her of the fact that "Teddy" as Albrighton seemed to have been called had been shot, and was in the Pasadena Hospital, Mr. Shiariski testified that some of the characters in the letter were his and some were not. While his counsel, Cooper and Kendall did everything to shield the witness, he of his own violation proved to be the poorest in the quartet; his memory being so poor that he could not remember anything except his effort to prove an alibis that he was in a Japanese noodle cafe at First and Alamega at the time of the shooting of Ben Wong at 34 Pico St. Pasadena; but his alibis was shot to pieces by straight forward answers to cross questions from the other three witnesses in the case, and when the district attorney advanced the fact that he had served a term at Leavenworth prison on a narcotic charge, the witness' facial expression did not even change other than the tightening of his lips, but in response to this question from the district attorney both Cooper and Kendall were on their feet with a string of objections that reached far into the afternoon. PROSECUTION ARGUE Moncay morning, May 5 Wayne Jordan, deputy district attorney, who had exhibited a world of patience at the trial of this case, arose to his full height and during the trial the cold gray eyes, which up to this point had shown no emotion, blazed with passionate appeal to the people of the state of California that the full penalty of the law be meted out to the three conspirators in this case. He pointed out to the jury that an attempt had been made to shield Shiarski'but to his mind Shiarski'was the arch conspirator among the trio; it was he, who had not only planned this robbery but had used the two colored youths because of the fact that he had Albritton in his clutches. KENDALL AND COOPER Attorney Kendall, who appears to be the younger member of the law firm of Cooper and Kendall, took plenty of time in addressing himself to the jury and proved to be a first class analyst, but a poor possibility at clinching his points. He talked until his daily ratio of perspiration was exhausted and his once strong voice, because of hoarseness, dwindled into a foghorn. when he reluctantly turned the stand over to Mr. Cooper. Attorney Cooper through the medium of jest and race insinuation attempted to move the passions of the jury. LIFE SENTENCE FOR THE IAP Tuesday at noon, Judge Hardy read his instructions to the jury, and after a half day deliberation, that august body brought in a verdict of guilt and recomended life imprisonment for the Japanese, Frank Shariaki. Dailies Coment on Recent Lynchings By: A.N.P. CHICAGO, May 5—recent lynching in Mississippi and South Carolina have elicited the customary editorial comments deploring mob violence and offering various panaceas. According to the Memphis Commercial Appeal, while the decline in the number of lynchings is encouraging, until there are no lynchings at all, there is much work to be done in creating public sentiments against the practice of citizens taking the law in their hands. At the same time, however the passage of a federal antilynching bill or the interference of the federal government in any form or fashion, according to this daily will tend to increase lynchings rather than curb them. "The only possible chance for a revival of the lynching spirit," the Tennessee paper declares, "ties in the passage of such fecal legislation as the Dyer Act, which would interfere with the solution being made by the states and might cause an outbreak of the crime for which lynching is invoked through conveying to potential criminals the thought that they would be protected in provocative crimes by the national government. Lynchings will be eliminated if the states are allowed to handle them. They may be revived if the states are subjected to federal interference." The crime referred to as provocative of lynchings is evidently that of rape, but in the last instances, as in many others, the crime charged against the victims was under or suspected murder. The Richmond Virginia News Dispatch days the blame for the practice at the door of all citizens even those who disparage it and declares: "Mob rule if it continues will head the community for barbism which characterized our uncivilized ancestors. It should be stamped out as the most subtile and effective influence at work in the undermining of government. Send a half dozen lynchers to the gallows or the electric chair and this dismal business would be rooted out of our modern life." ON THE SIDE WALK (Continued from Page One) for twenty months for insulting the flag of our nation which stands for liberty and freedom for all. THE PASSING OF TULLY A. Y. Tully, Los Angeles Evening Express Editor, who attracted nation-wide attention as author of the Shooting Straight column, today is being mourned by his city and the nation, because or his passing, and this paper joins the great newspaper caravan, as it moves onward with unhesitating tread and stops long enough to bow its head in grief in respect for this man, who through his witty, timely and philosophical sayings sought to make the world and particularly Los Angeles a better place in which to live. INDI A STRIKES FOR FREEDOM No nation or people will be content as the door mat for other nations and people. India has struck for freedom. RACE RESTRICTION GETS BLOW Passage of an ordinance restricting the ownership or use of private property in various residential districts in unincorporated county territory to members of the white or Caucasian race would be unconstitutional and void. County Counsel Everett W. Mattoon ruled today. Request for adoption of such a measure was filed with the county board of supervisors several months ago by a group of 139 petitioners residing in the vicinity of El Sereno, near South Pasadena, who asked that property in this section be limited to white persons. Under rulings of the United States supreme court passage of a racial restrictive ordinance is beyond the power of the county governing body, the opinion points out, but this does not mean that such limitations may not be created by deed restrictions of a wholly private nature. Page--Seven Re- Piano Recital a Great Success Prof. John A. Gray was heard last week in one of the most brilliant and difficult recitals of the season. Prof. Gray is a teacher who plays and not a player who teaches. Thus the performance, while brilliantly given, was an example of fine musculature and scholarly interpretation. His rendition of the Bach-Tausig Toccata and Fugue brought the house down with thunderous applause. His Chopin group was also well received. Liszt's Funerals was magnificently played and the large and appreciative audience responded enthusiastically. The Monroe chorus under Mrs. Monroe Beaver's baton was a feature of the evening and were forced to respond to numerous encore. Mrs. A. C. Bibrow gave explanatory notes on the program which helped the audience to appreciate the difficult selections. Beautiful decorations helped make the affair an artistic success. Singer's Mother Visits Los Angeles Miss Lorraine Winston well known singer was accorded a pleasant surprise a few days age by the arrival of her mother, Mrs. Ollie Wright from their home in Texas. She will visit her talented daughter here for some time. Miss Winston who gained much fame through her singing in "On with the Show" has sung in a number of other pictures since then. Fashion Show and Revue a Real "Hit" Last Tuesday evening at the Paradise Hall, Vernon and Central avenues, the Kiddies' Fashion Show and Lauretta Butler's Kiddle Revue received the plaudits of many happy mothers and friends. The Kiddies' show was produced under the capable direction of Miss Mary E. Reed, noted club woman of the city. Some of the outstanding talent were the Hills twins, two year-old boys and Beverly Hill in song and dance. Eugene Jackson and Freddie Baker, a soft shoe dance, Emily Mason is a playlet. In "A Millinery Shop." Taken all in all, it demonstrated that Los Angeles has a large crop of young talent of which we may be proud. J. W. Griffin in Accident Mr. J. W. Griffin, one of Los Angeles' leading amorticians of Conner Johnson, Inc. was seriously injured Tuesday on the Ridge Route, while en route to bring a body to Los Angeles. He suffered several lacreations on the face and hands and three fractured ribs. His physician reported him out of danger. Word comes of the pending divorce action against Thomas W. Myles, Jr., by his wife, Dorothy Johnson Myles THE RED CARNATION Dedicated to Mother and the following friends who have so nobly played the part during her absence: Mrs. A. G. Thompson, Mrs. A. R.

Oh sweet little red carnation Tiny queen of the month of May Tis them that you mean clinging Mother" And you reign like a king for a day. I could write many hours on Mother And leave volumes unsaid, volumes true But I chanced to be passing the garden And my thoughts took a fancy to you May you fill my heart ever with gladness. As today I am filled with delight. And I trust that as long as life lingers I shall never no never wear white. —Iva O. Reed.

Church for California Go preach my gospel saith the Lord; Go make my great commission known Go heal the sick, go raise the dead, go cast out devils in my name. The District Conferences in the A. M. E. church are closing, another milestone is reached, the condition of the churches are known; every minister in the state looks forward to the Annual Conferences. Some see success at this date, some are doubtful. An annual lay representation has met in District Conference with their ministers on terms of equality, there being the slight exception, the superannuate and evangelist. I am competent to write of men I know and love, and to tell of their sacrifices, cares and labors. The African Methodist ministry on the west coast is made up of men of great faith and great courage fine characters and high interests. To the laymen of the west ministerial dignity and high character means more than ecclesiastical proficiency and puritic decorum, happily the courses of study prepares the itinerant minister of our denomination. As previously stated some see success already. These pastors know the power of organization, they know that an organized church is a successful church. The first duty at the beginning of the Conference year is the laymens' that duty is to receive the appointed minister WHOLEHEARTEDLY. This is the first great secret in successful organization and management. While on this subject let me say that every different minister is entitled to the best the appointment can give. No layman or layman regardless of their intellectual attainment are above the minister in charge. No layman regardless of his political or financial standing in a community is above the minister of his church, in accepting the Discipline of African Methodism and subscribing to its doctrine, policy, and laws, von accept the above stated facts the duty of the laymen so blessed (and there are many) is to throw the full weight of that blessing to the support of the administration, and in receiving the minister and his family wholeheartedly, the church makes a jump start. The Christian life is a race the unkind things said, the unkind acts committed in so many instances against the new minister without giving him a hearing, without even knowing him, is a disfuraceful shame, it must be stopped. The so Los Angeles Baptist The Los Angeles Baptist Ministers' Union met last Monday at Pleasant Hill Baptist Church, President Marsh shall called the meeting to order at 1 P. M. Evangelist Huggins conducted Devotionals. Rev. Banks reported for the Progressive Church, and Rev. Spencer for Mt. Olive, Other brethren spoke encouragingly concerning the work of their several churches. The order of the day was that of further consideration of the National Baptist Jubilee Convention matters. Rev. Curtis was called to the chair and after brief remarks called on the main speaker. Rev. Dr. Rozier who gave an extended and lucid explanation of the entire plan, and purpose of the Jubilee. Dr. Rozier, officially, represents Dr. L. K. Williams president of the Convention. Rev. L. M. Curtis Chairman of the local commission followed with a telling address on unity of endeavor for the largest, measure of success. Mrs. C. D. Robinson was confirmed in her appointment of leadership of work among the women, who, in turn, will report back to the local Commission. A Speakers Bureau consisting of a large number of ministers, and laymen was appointed, concerning the Pickens Carter incident. The Union was of unanimous opinion that Mr. Pickens was exceedingly wrong in attacking Mr. Carter, in regard to matters which belong, exclusively, to the Ministers and the people of our community. A Committee of three Ministers was appointed to write to the chief Executive of The N. A. A. C. P. condemning M. Pickens for allowing himself to be mixed up in matters out-side of his business. clearly is injured not the minister. Let us treat them with that courtesy, respect and love due a messenger of the Lord and you know the golden rule is the finest rule in the world for church people to follow, it broadens, elevates and lifts. To know the history of African Methodism in California is to know the blessings of Almighty God. It was the early patriot minister of the A. M. E. church that blazed the trail in the nineteenth century, crossed the burning sands and unfurled the flag of African Methodism on these shores, they came not to found but advance the faith and mush back hell's forces in the days of the vigilances and the gold rush. They lifted up in this wilderness and this barren land a crucified and risen Christ and administered to the then few people their spiritual and material needs. We are blessed with the same class of ministry today the people cannot deny these facts. Secondly the law of Methodism provides that certain offices in the church are appointed others elective in a number of our churches the ministers are harned and for the sake of peace are forced to appoint a cabinet of Stewards in some instances pledged to disrupt the administrations, let our love for right and truth stop this practice, the minister in charge is chairman of all boards, and ex-officio chairman of all auxiliaries. To exercise the knowledge of this truth would be a forward step. In our denomative in the west are some of the finest minds, men of strict honesty whose only motive in coming west is to advance the kingdom of Christ and enlarge the boaders of African Methodism, other sections of our church contacts, larger salaries, and may I say to the laymen and particularly to the Stewards the salaries of all our ministers are for too low. We must educate our memberships in the matter of ministers' salaries, the pattance allowed by the board for loyal service well rendered is inadequate, and has caused strong men to become repugnant to our best interest. The African Methodist minister is more than a pastor. he is engaged in every walk of life to further the interest of the race regardless of Denomination-one of the greatest ministers in the state busied himself in organizing boy scout's civic work, etc. another Y. M. C. A. work and still others in political and social service. Their wives in Federated Club. Work homes for wayward girls and social centers. This proves my previous statement that the ministers contribute to the material welfare of the community and race. I therefore urge every layman to strengthen the arm of his minister for the coming annual conference. Help with all might to send in a round report, double the minister's salary the condition of today demands it in supporting the outlined program your finances are well spent. The upkeep cost of an annual conference is an item in its self may we examine these conditions with an open mind. The achievement of the A. M. E. Church is the greatest of any known organization and is the pride of all people of advanced minds. The annual conference is a grand institution discussing in all conferences such subjects as temperance, economics, education etc., and gice courses of study with promotion when proficiency is attained, the pension system is a glorious achievement in the African Methodist Episcopal Church and will increase the allowance to the Superanuated Minister, widow and orphan of the ministry as the years go by. There are those that scoff at our system of pension, but these figures may enlighten the uniformed. The quadrennial report of the Bureau of Pensions of the A. M. E. Church are as followers.

This difference of opinion and curosity had arisen from the fact that both the young heavies have been piling up a string of knock- out victories in practically the sami field and same opponents, so. supre- macy between the two was naturally the next thing to be desided. This too was to be a feature in itself. But 1 hitch, coming in the Maloney, Eman- uel arrangements caused. the bout to be called off.

He took him from a $268 fighter to a $50,000 attraction. Maloney has helped draw a half mil. lion dollars in the gates with fights in Boston and New York.
