Water Bonds In Glorious Tr GREAT MEDICINE NEW 25c. SIZE 1879 CALIFORNIA EAGLE 1930 VOLUME 42 LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1930 FIEND ATTACKS YOUNG GIRL WITH KNIFE Attorney Clarence C. Jones brought to light the fact that $425 taxes and $1,000 back installments are due at the present time which must be paid to avert a foreclosure proceedings. Attorney Tyler questioned the defendant in regard to a vacant lot in Oakland on which a value of $300 was placed. He also asked Mr. Conner if he owned a house in Watts, to which the defendant replied in the negative, stating that this property belonged to the firm. Attorney Jones questioned Mrs. Conner in regard to her expence which she read from a memorandum. This account listed such items as gas, electric light and other incidentals totaling an amount of $184.00. A verbal clash between the two notable attorneys resulted when the maid's salary was mentioned, attorney Jones contending that it was unnecessary extravagance in Mrs. Conner maintaining a maid for the pleasure of one lone occupant. Attorney Tyler objected, and was sustained by the court. Attorney Jones hurled the accusation at Mrs. Conner that she hired a different attorney every time the case came up and that she hired and fired attorneys at will. Attorney Tyler objected and was sustained by the court. The court then asked Mrs. Conner if she still chose to remain in her pretentious home with a threatened foreclosure hanging over it and she replied in the affirmative. Property on Glassel street was brought in the record which Mrs. Conner stated she received $34.00 a month from in Mr. Conner's statement of expenses, doctor's fees amounting to hundreds of dollars were listed. One bill of $660 to Dr. Pearl and others ranging from $460 to $500 in medical fees were still outstanding. He further GENERAL EDUCATIONAL BOARD DONATES $5.000 TO KY. NORMAL SCHOOL Bv: A. N. P. Louisville. Ky. May 20—President R. B. Atwood of the Kentucky Normal and Industrial College announced this week the gift of $5,000 from the General Educational Board at New York City. A like sum was appropriated by the last entucky General Assembly. This is the first time that this educational board has even given a Kentucky College so large an amount. And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests, and the rulers, and the people, said unto me, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people; and behold I, have examined him before you, have found no fault in this man, touching those things whereof ye acuse him. St. Luke XXIII 13, 14. THE SCANDAL OF A NATION WHEN PILATE told the mob to take Jesus and do as it pleased with him, because finding no fault in him, he, Pilate, desired to wash his hands from any connection with the crime. He demonstrated a spineless official of his day and time. GOVERNOR DAN Moody, repuded to be one of the best governors Texas has ever had, is excusing his part in the lynching and burning of George Hughes by classing the lynching as legal murder, stipulating that Hughes was guilty of the charges brought against him, when as a matter of fact, Governor Moody knows full well that the first witness for the prosecution in the Hughes' case was interrupted and word was passed around that there was no evidence against the Negro. Judge Carter stopped the trial and proposed a change of venue, then it was that the mob made its attack, in which it is alleged to police officers, deputies and Texas rangers participated. THIS MATTER of lynch rule, as practiced by certain states, designated as the southern division of our country, has reached such a serious state that it has become a matter that should claim the most serious attention of our nation. WILL THE 16,000,000 black people of our country always remain loyal to the Stars and Stripes, if the Old Glory for which Carney bled and died before he would suffer it to touch the ground, continue to wave over the charred remains of a man who pays the lynch' law toll, simply because he is black? U. S. SUREPME COURT GIVES RACE A BREAK THE TIRELESS fight made by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the people of Richmond, Va., was rewarded in the highest tribunal of the nation this week—here justice was sought and received. Race Separation Ordinance Void Washington. May 19. (AP) The Supreme Court today affirmed the decision of the lower Federal courts holding invalid an ordinance of Richmond, Va., aimed at the segregation of races by prohibiting Negroes from occupying houses in white neighborhoods. THE SUPREME court is cognizant of the fact that these segregated districts furnish prey for such mobs as the one at Sherman, Texas, which even after it had baked Hughes in the $60,000 county court house inferno, could only finish appeasing its wrath by burning seventeen of the reputable business houses, such as Odd Fellows' Hall, drug store, hotel, cafes, barber shops, etc. in the Negro district. And who among us has forgotten the Tulsa disgrace. THE DUNBAR HOSPITAL AFTER A week's stay at the Dunbar Hospital, for the benefit of those who are in need of hospital attention, may we not recommend the Dunbar. AS far as we are concerned, this is one of the most unique institutions in the city and deserving of the whole-hearted support of our group. THE DUNBAR hospital is owned and operated by Drs. Diggs and Whittaker, two of Los Angeles best prepared medical experts and they have spared no pains in making this hospital in accommodation and equipt- (Continued On Page Eight) Divorce Suit Dwindles Undertaker's Fortune (BY CHAS. L. UPTON) In Department 9 of the Superior Court last Monday, May 19th, before a crowded chamber of curious spectators, it was brought to light during the cross examination of the defendant in the divorce proceedings of Charles D. Conner vs. Nellie V. Conner, that the purported fortune of one hundred thousand dollars presumably possessed by the defendant, Charles D. Conner, well known mortician, had dwindled to a meager salary of $225.00 a month, while the defendant's sole claim to the business in connection with his name consisted of one lone share and an automobile instead of thirty-four shares formerly owned by him. Mr. Conner, under cross examination by the plaintiff's attorney, Mr. Willis O. Tyler, stated that the bulk of shares he formerly owned had been transferred to a Mr. Griffin, a stockholder in the company. A low murmur was audible then the courtroom, when the value of the pretentious mansion was estimated at $15,000,50 with the price of furnishings for the interior set at $8,000. Mr. Conner stated that Mrs. Conner promised to keep the cost of furnishing the home within the bonds of $3,000 but her taste for luxury ran to the high peak of $9,000 when she had finished purchasing the various articles of household goods in the fashionable Barker Bros., and other high-class stores. On account of the excessive amount he was forced to place a heavy mortgage on the home. (Continued on Page Seven) New Executive Sec'y. For Urban League Lester B. Granger, of Bordentown Manual Training to Be Executive Secretary of Los Angeles Organization. The Board of Directors at its last regular meeting elected Mr. Lester B. Granger as executive secretary of our local Urban League. He will take his new position July 1st. For the past seven years, Mr. Granger has been doing vocational work in the state of New Jersey for the Bordentown Manuel Training school and in that capacity co-operated with the industrial department of the National Urban League, in the development of its economic program. "Mr. Granger's selection by our board," said Albert Baumann, president of the League, "is a decided step in the right direction. He comes to us with a store of knowledge as to our economic needs and with a full understanding of our social problems as well. We are indeed fortunate to secure the services of such a highly qualified executive. I predict for the League its elevation to a position as a medium for the adjustment of our economic and social problems in this community." To Hang Negro For Killing Negro CLEVELAND MISS.. May 20—Henry Guest, convicted in Bolivar County Circuit Court of the murder of Abraham Tucker, and Phillips Hays, convicted of criminal assault, both sentenced to be hanged on June 20, are held in jail at Cleveland pending appeals to the Supreme Court. All are colored. Guest's conviction is the first time in the history of Bolivar County a Negro was sentenced to be hanged for killing another of the race. FEW NEGROES ATTEND UN- EMPLOYMENT MASS MEETING Interpreted as either acknowledgement of the futility of demonstrations/noisy speech making etc. to affect a remedy or because there is less unemployment in the group than among other races, a mere handful of colored people were among a large crowd that assembled at the Plaza last Sunday to listen to speeches against capitalists and the lack of work. Eads Howe, the millionaire hobo was the speaker of the day. ATTACK MISSOURI SENATOR FOR PARKER VOTE ATTACK MISSOURI SENATOR FOR PARKER VOTE By: A. N. P. ST. LOUIS, MO. May 20—The action of United States Senator Roscoe Patterson in supporting Judge John J. Parker for confirmation as associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court was termed "regrettable" by State Representative Walthall M. Moore, at the opening of the Republican campaign, in the Fifth Ward, last Friday night. The Senate rejected Parker's appointment after Negro organizations and labor unions had fought him on the ground that he had been unfair. Moore, the first member of our race to be elected to the State Legislature, is a candidate for the Republican nomination for congress in the 12th district, which is largely populated by our people. He will oppose Congressman L. C. Dyer, white, who has represented the district for years. Moore said: "In that memorable action in the Senate some days ago, we found our Republican Senator Patterson could not bring himself to the point of supporting the thing we begged of him. I regret that he found it necessary to line up against us. "In the Parker matter, the Negroes found their memories and dug up the records. We had every right to expect that our Republican Senators would stand by us in this fight, and I am sorely disappointed that they did not do so." PORTLAND SINGER GIVES FINE RECITAL YOURDAN. MADAM JESSIE COLES GRAYSON Music lovers who attended the Jessie Coles Grayson recital at Mount Zion church Friday night were rewarded with one of the finest concerts ever presented in Seattle. Mrs. Grayson proved herself an artist in every sense of the word. She is master of the contralto voice which she uses effectively and without exaggeration. No mere voice would ever hold an audience and win the aplause as did Jessie Coles Grayson.—Seattle Enterprise. Mrs. Grayson will appear in recital at Eighth and Towne Avenue church, Monday, June 2 sponsored by the Sojourner Truth Welfare Auxiliary Colored Nurse Gets Important Assignment Colored Nurse Gets Important Assignment Important recognition was accorded a colored graduate nurse when Mrs Willie Leonora Bruce 725-F. 24th St was assigned by Dr. F. F. Barham millionaire publisher of the Los Angeles Herlad to take his convalescent two-year-old son to New York. She left with her precious charge, on the Santa Fe's crack train, the "Chief" Monday. May 19th to be gone two weeks leaving the boy-in the hands of great eastern specialists to protect the cure she has been incidental in effecting. The case was one of the most dangerous and closely watched in local medical history. Twelve weeks ago the capitalist's beloved son was suddenly stricken with Broncho-Phenomonia, one of the most dread diseases in medical annals. Because of Mrs. Bruce's record with local white specialists she was sent for post haste when the edict was declared by the Physician in charge that only the finest nursing and co-operation would save him. So for six weeks she remained at his bedside in their palatial home in Inlewood, until the wood until the crisis was past. The gratitude of the family could hardly be estimated and although she is one of the most highly paid nurses in the west she was showered with many other rewards. Following the completion of her mission she was given a tour of side trips through the east, taking in Atlantic City, Philadelphia and other eastern cities. During her stay in the Metropolis she resided at the eastern home of the publisher, 708 Ocean Avenue, Brooklyn. Her gift tour also included Denver, Col to visit old friends there. Mrs. Bruce a native of Colorado, and graduate of Meharry Medical Institute, is noted for her success in handling surgical obstetrical and ifever cases. For eleven years until his death she was associated with Dr. R. A. Woods, famous western specialist handling all his greatest cases. She is also one of the city's most able business women and largest property owner, among her possessions being Florette Courts. Florette Apartments, a ten room residence in Watts, California, besides city lots and other valuable property. By: A. N. P. ATLANTA, GA., May 20—The Commission on Interracial Co-operation has just announced award of the following prizes in connection with its annual national high school project, "America's Tenth Man," based on a study of the Negro's contribution to American life. Individual prize of $100 to Ruth Lucille Murison, Swedeland, Pennsylvania, student in Bridgeport, High School. School prize of $100 to R. J. Reynolds School, Winston-Salem, N. C. School prize of $100 to the high school of Kirkssville, Missouri. The contest evoked wide interest, enlisting many thousands of students in 160 schools in thirty-five states. In one white school, 500 papers were written by students and in another a thousand were reported as having had some part in the study. Many schools participating reported deep interest and very gratifying results. It is believed that a great many young people of both races were profited by the study. Bakersfield Man Gets Freedom, $6,000 in Cash and Prospect of a Fortune OIL OPERATORS WANT OKLAHOMA PROPERTY Bonus, Royalty Accepted for Lease on Land in Newest "Gusher District In jail one day for failure to pay a court fine of $250 and out the next day with $6,000 cash and the prospect of becoming an oil millionaire—that in a sentence is the history this week of Jack Craig, a Negro, who is now walking about his place on the Cottonwood road trying to convince himself that it is all true. It is true. The clink of the cash and the crackle of the bills make genuine music in the ears of Craig. Last week Craig was in jail here serving out his sentence in lieu of paying the $350 fines. It seems that he had some difficulty with the government over the possession of intoxicants, or such was the allegation in Federal Court. Because Craig was short on funds, he went to jail. Last week he had a caller. A man offered him $200 for a couple or lots back in Oklahoma. Craig was about to jump at the offer when a stranger said he had driven all the way from Oklahoma to buy the lots. This last statement made Craig hesitant—perhaps the lots were worth more than $200. Finally, through various stages of dickering, the price was boosted up $900. As the price ascended Craig took on more hope and respect for the property a brother had given him before dying. Craig held off. Other offers were made, tipping off the whole matter to Craig. The realization came to him that his two lots were right "smack bang" in the center of the new Oklahoma oil territory which has figured so conculcously in the public press through its great other. Craig decided to consult an attorney and retained Mel Britton of this city who book over negotiations for he Negro and secured for him a $6,000 bonus and an eighth royalty. The land is in the center of an area bringing in from 10,000 to 15,000 barrel wells. (BY: WILLIAM PICKENS) (For The Associated Negro Press) "Hold Him If You Can, But Don't Shoot Anybody." These are the words which the Governor of Texas wired to the officers who were defending an accused Negro against a mob bent on lynching him. Those words were just as effective as if he had wired to the mob leaders: "Go and get the Negro, if you want him; you won't be hurt for it."—That telegram was the real crime. That telegram incited the mob. That telegram murdered the untrusted, and hence unconvicted Negro. Of course, the mob leaders and the mobbish law-officers said: "The Negro confessed; is in the calm atmosphere of a court, not in the fury of a mob nor in the presence of bullying, torturing "officers." The sort of confessions gotten from Negroes' under such circumstances are never to be trusted, even when the confession is certified and it is seldom certified, but we usually have only the mob's word for it, when after the lynching they are trying to mitigate the heinousness of their offense. We know that even when a black man and a white woman are caught in compromise in a state like Texas, it stands as "rape" even in the law courts as well as before the mob. Sherman, Texas, is in the edge of Hell. One year ago I had a date to speak there and to organize the colored people. Just before I reached the place, I received word from the physician who was making the arrangements, cancelling the date and begging me not to come. I felt rather vexed at what seemed the useless fear of that colored man then, but perhaps he knew the depth of the savagery of that community better than I could guess it. I see that this mob did not forget to burn down "the Negro Drug store," perhaps this same doctor's business. It is remarkable how these mobs pretend that they are trying to punish rapists, but always manage to destroy or to steal property. The economic motives of the mob are very convincing. Ten years ago, after the Tulsa riot, and after the sacking and burning of the "Negro section," in the first days of peace that followed, many a colored woman, walking through the town, discovered some of her jewelry on the fingers or in the ears of some white-woman. The "frenzied" mobs were not frenzied enough to pass over or to scorn these valuables; jewelry, money, and even furniture was hauled out in some cases before the Negro home was set fire to. But Dan Moody's wire is so far the worst outrage committed against law and decency in the history of mob violence. He deliberately sought to paralyze and stay the none too eager hands of the Texas officers in defending a Negro prisoner. He must have known that if he feared to order them to defend their prisoner, as braver governors in Kentucky and other states have done, he did not even NEED to order them to turn the Negro over to the mob without resistance, which is the sum and substance of his orders. Officers in such cases need encouragement to sustain the law; they never need any incitement from their superiors to connive at popular uprising or not. Old Bill Sherman once said: "If I Owned Both Hell and Texas, I would Rent Out Texas." Well., Governor Dan Moody is a disgrace even to Texas. CHARGED WITH MAKING FALSE CLAIMS AGAINST U. S. By: A. N. P. NEW ORLEANS, La., May 20 Charges of making false claims against the government of the United States in seeking to secure two checks of $10.50 each, were filed against Morel Handley, Negro. Handley told United States Commissioner R. H. Carter, Jr. before whom he was charged, that two government checks addressed to him had been intercepted and cashed by someone else. When informed that he could be sentenced to ten years and fin- ed $5,000 for fraudulent claims against the government he still protested that his checks had been intercepted and cashed without his knowledge. Miss Delphinia Jackson, 1358 1-2 E Washington street, lies critically ill at the hospital with a very slim chance for recovery from a vicious attack upon her by one named Felix Williams, who went to her home on last Tuesday evening forced his way into the young woman's room, hid in a closet and when she came home about 11 p. m., attacked her with a knife, slashing her face, arms and hands. She was taken to the Receiving Hospital where the surgeons had to take 65 stitches in sewing up the wounds. As we go to press the doctors hold out small hopes for her recovery. Williams is 41 years of age, the girl 19. Conjecture is the only cause suggested, but the general theory advanced is that the girl had repulsed Williams' advances and he became infurated and committed the crime. Lieutenant of Police Krug and Lieutenant of Detectives Kimbrough and Broady answered the call. The case was then assigned to, Officers Conway and Clark. Witnesses to the act were Ruth Malanda, 1358 1-2 E. Washington; Prince Carter, 1358 1-2 E. Washington and Melrose Browning, 1358 East Washington. Miss Jackson is the adopted daughter of the late Mrs. M. Jackson who met a tragic death a trifle over a year ago in front of her home at this same address by being run down by an automobile. She is also a beautiful and deaccomplished young woman who only last year graduated from High school. Has almost of friends among the younger set as well as the old who hope for her recovery. JAIL WORKERS IN WISCONSIN MILWAUKEE, WIS., May 20- For struggling against unemployment, and demanding work or wages, thirteen workers of this Socialist controlled city have been sentenced to six months in prison. The trial was marked by the rankest discrimination against Negroes on the jury. Although there is a considerable Negro population in this city, great care taken to exclude completely any Negro from sitting on the Jury. Panel. DR. WM. R. CARTER ATTENDS BAPTIST CONVENTION Dr. Wm. R. Carter, General Worker among Negro Baptists in this territory, left this week to attend the Northern Baptist Convention which meets in Cleveland, Ohio May 28th to June 2nd. The Northern Baptist Convention this year is emphasizing its educational and missionary work among Negroes throughout the country. This, convention has the largest educational and missionary investment among Negroes, and employs more Negro college presidents and teachers than any other denomination working among the race. While away, Dr. Carter will study racial and inter-racial conditions in Chicago, Cleveland, Washington and Mennichis. He has been invited to participate in several conferences relating to the educational and economic activities among and for the Negro. Los Angeles, May 21, 1930. Joseph B. B. Mass, Editor; California Eagle, 847 South Central Avenue, Los Angeles, Calif. Los Angeles has won a glorious victory on behalf of the Department of Water and Power. May I express sincere thanks for the most generous manner in which you devoted space in your newspaper to Water and Bond news during the campaign. The unsuifled wholehearted support of district newspapers contributed very largely to the overwhelming vote for the Water Bonds. It was necessary to inform the people as to the actual and vital need for more water. You have rendered a very great public service. DON J.

Mr. Ellsworth hearing of the boy singer and ever anxious to give an op- portunity to tadevsloped Negro talent drove over to Boyle Heights and brought him to the contest. The long enthusiastic applause that followed his singing “At the End of The Road” Proved that he is really a discovery. Although he has never had vocal training or appeared in regular stage Performances, hig voice is pure, clear, and possessed of that vibrant quality that makes great artists. MORE ENTRIES WELCOMED Happy Mitchell won second prize with a dancing act, and John Gibson took third with a beautiful. cornet solo. Mitchell és half that focally famous team of Mitchell and Redman and Gibson a mere boy is 4 member of a crack boys band, a worthy scion of a musical family. The contests are already the town talk but being of the elimination plan those who fail in the first may re-enter and finally win in the last. All who can, do any thing are urged to enter, not | only tor the prizes but because of the facts that there'will’ be stage and movie scouts in the audience looking for new Negro talent. - The motiop picture industry is truly the world’s greatest business and bids fair to continue so.

Here is 2 proposition disignated as the “Odd Fellows Home” it is more than that; It is also an Odd Fellows Nursery. because it insalls in the mind and heart the greatness of production.

The confirmation of Judge Parker was deniéd because of his judicial bias in the decision rendered where the interest Ot the laborer was concerned, as much, and more so, because.of_ his intol- erant views of racial citizenship. ‘There are many of the judicial posts which are elective. Candidates for those benches will have to prove that they have judicial minds, free from all:bias and can interpret the Jaw for the high and. lowly; rich and, poor, alike. There is no doubt, that if as reported, 2 judge sitting on the bench of a superior court al- lowed an attorney to use the language as alleged, that he will be remem- bered by the voters of that city (Los Angeles) and the community when he again seeks their suffrage. We do not expect this to meet with the unanimous approbation, evén: of the ones whose veracity was assailed because of their color. Neither are we expecting a “pat an the back” by those who humiliated by the words of racial ridicule spewed from the mouth of the "Gentleman? from the South.” It. was no great effort for Judge Parker to.obtain any amount of “Negroes? to recommend him for confirmation. | We have,them with US; ALWAYS. * 2 * * * K In Sherman, Texas, scene‘of the late riot when a thob burned the court house, destroyed other property, murdered helpless citizens,. and raised hell in) general, the Militia which was called out to. maintain order seemed to be as efficient as a regiment 0 ftwo year old boy's armed with pea shooters. "Law abiding and hard working Negro men who have helped to make the “Lone Star State” prosperous by their toil, have been told by’ itinerant agitators ‘that they must leave their homes and employment or suffer death, It seems to be an irony that the town which harbors all of this trouble’ should be named for the great man who made the expression, “That if he had to take his choice between Hell and Texas, he would prefer Hell.” Sherman the great soldier was right but why should the town named for him be pointed out as a realization of his prophecy. There are a few of Texas citizens who make the boast of fairness. Numbers of ideal citizens are frequent visitors to the states bordering on the Pacific Coast.

For the five years, what is now named the “The Istitute of Pacific Relations” has been meeting at various points in the Pacific to discuss matters and develop, by contact, a better understanding. It was hoped by those means, to form the basis which yvould tend toward the establishment of a perpetual peace among the nations bordering on the Pacific Ocean. A visit to Hawii will convince one that it is a cosmo- polite. A little world in itself. Races from the four corners of the earth live together, contact in-business; work in unity and, abide in harmony. A study of the problems in Hawii will come near that of any question arising in the Pacific.‘ The establishment of a permanent place of meet- ing in Honolulu sticH as at the Hague, where all questions pertaining to the countries, which border on the Pacific, could be brought for adjudication, would go a long way to create an era of mutual good will. where there is mutual goodwill: peace and prosperity must attend. It might be that] when Australia comes in contact with other races of the world and can note that all have the human qualities of good and bad, she may awake from the provincial sleep of her isolation and welcome ali ‘people for the) worth which they might-bring to their commonwealth. . * © * * Secretary’ of State, Stimpson, who headed ‘the delegation from the United States to the Hoover—McDonald conference in London.

It seems as if the game of horse shoes is being indulged in more this year in Los Angeles than ‘usual, but it could not be spoken of aq revival; for this form of sport, going back in principle to the discus throwing of the ancient Greeks, has never been absent with in the, period written history. In early England it was known as quoits, with heavy iron rings used, and this name and the use of rings persists to a considerable degree, but horse shoes appear to be the official style in this country. Quoit pitching became so general in England in the fifteenth century that rivalattempts Were mada to end it in favor of archery. One of the writers of the period speaks of “quoiting as too vile for scholars.” It i noted, however, that scholars at picnics still take to it about as keen- ly as any, while archery, much as there is to be said for its gracefulness and test_of skill, still requires efforts to keep it alive. Horse shoes, first used by Workingmen for luck of quoits, now ate made specially for the game with regulation weight, and finished as elegantly as desired, in gold bronze, nickle plate or aluminum. ‘ The school of experience has no class reunions.

E. Tracy, columnist for the Scripps Booth Dailies. & Pathetic Commentary { That outrage at Sherman, Texas, in which a frenzied mob burned the courthouse in order to destroy a Negro whose. fate had already been sealed by his confession forms a pathetic commentary on our boasted civilization, A i The way the rioters abused the body of their helpless victim’ was of small consequence: compared to the way they abused’ their awn intel- ligence. One could excuse them if they were trying to accomplish some-| thing that could not have been accomplished in an orderly manner, but that was not the case. The law: had not broken down; there was not the least likelihood that the criminal would escape punishment, and unless constitutional government is all wrong, a legal execution would have done more good than such a wanton exhibition of insane violence as the mob staged. It is to be hoped’ that the authorities will be able to apprehend and punlish those responsible for such an assault on public decency. foe ee Senator Hitam Johnson, Knight—errant of American independence, had a verbal oust’ with Secretary of State, Stimpson who was on the “grill” at the hearing af the delegtes to the London Naval Conference on the treaty under investigation by the foreign relation committee of the senate, It is reported that the Secretary became peeved and showed ire at the persistent questioning he had to undergo. During’ the verbal conflict over the increased Japanese naval strength, the Secretary: was ask- ed by the Senator whether Japan did not recognize the 3-5-3 ration at the Washington conference, the Secretary replied that “There is a difference of opinion.” Then. retorted the Senator: “I come from the Pacific Coast, and I think the great world developments of the future will come in that region. Pacific commerce is cvresing rapidly. 1 am not a militarist and !-would favor a limjtation. of armament. But Il am not willing to sacrifice our naval bases in 1922 to get ‘the 5-5-3 ratio, and then sacrifice the ration at London in 1930 merely t oobtain a treaty.” What a splendid thing it is to have as.a representative one who is fear- les and has the ‘temerity’ to think for himself, and in the thinking: has in view the interest of hls constituency at home as well as his broader constituency Nation. . 4 We els Prohibition still holds the spotlight. Proponents and opponents of the enforcement act are endeavaring“to show why the measure should be amended or repealed, and the other side clamoring for stricter enforce- ment. Former Ambassador to’ Mexico, Morrow: now a candidate for the U. S, senate from New Jersey. comes out in his platform as for ‘repeal of the law. “Prior to 1919 it was the State Governments that bore the prinicpal responsibility for dealing with the liquor question. | believe that the way out of the present difficulty is to recognize clearly the fun- damental difference between the nature of the federal government and th State government. | believe this involves a repeal of the states the power to determine their policy toward the liquor traffic “and vest in the federal government power to give all possible protection and’ assis- tance to those States that desire complete prohibition against invasion from the States that do not.” Said Dwigt Morrow. i elon TE bee epee) oe f Proponents of the League Court are haying-a rough journey. | Big ders ae being thrown in the path. Abraham Lincoln was wise in stening to and heeding the wishes of the “common people. He gave them credit for having intelligence sufficient to know their wants. It might be well for other executives to follow the example of Abraham Lincoln. The Treaty brought home by the delegates to the London Naval Conference is also in for some rough usage before ratification; if ratified. One of the important signs of the times is, the meeting to- gether of such widely divergent religious beliefs as the Roman Catholic: Jew and Methodists. The representatives of the three religious sects met to confer on how to best further their religious intrests in communities where there might be anoverlapping. There is great significance in the conferring of those three big religious bodies. The Rev. J. B. Kelly, noted Catholic, takes exception to the statement of the anti-Saloon League that it was “born of God.” “IT taking a drink is immorial, how about Wesly, the saint of Methodism, who. accotding to Lamar, Georgia historian was known. to wallow a ‘‘hooker” of hot whisky. Thus it goes back and forth. When the question is eventualiy settled lets hope it will be settled right and for all time. Now Texas threatens to dismem- ber herself jn-order to transfer the balance of political power from the North to the South. Texas, N. Garner, representative from that State, declared can be divided into five states by an act of the Legislature. “This power ig lodged in Texas through provisions of the annexation resolution.” Garner said.

STUDENT EDITORAL "The more you study, The more you know; The more you know; The more you forget; The more you forget; The less you know; Why study?" HEARD AND SEEN While browsing in the library to day I came across a volume of "Modern Negro Poets" by James Weldon Johnson. What particularly struck me was a poem ("Choucer") by Benjamin Browley. I understand that Mr. Barwley has written text books that are used in several American Colleges including Harvard. Mr. Frank Tustin Browley of 100 Yale St. is a brother of the renowned author. Don't ask me how I received this information, suffice it to say that if is true the following statements were written by two white girls student of P. J. C. Writes girl No. 1 "There are scores of Negroes who are really intelligent and genteel. But the great majority of them are neither retind in mind nor very respectable in person. Girl No. 2 — The Negroes dress very dirty; they eat bad food, and are bad generally." Of course the immature and superficial judgement of these two young students is very noticable. But we wont just how much truth is embodied in their criticisms. Such statements should appeal to the price of the race to be more careful in behavior, etc. The Engineering Magazine at P. J. C. informs us that an ance road is in process of construction which will lead from Fairbanks, Alaska to Bagnes Aires. It will run along the Pacific Coast for thousands of miles think of it motorists will be able to drive from the northern to the Southern Continent without contacting water. The Panama canal will be bridged. Mr. Oscar Overr told the Inter-Racial Forum (Sunday) that the famous Pancho Villa was almost a full blooded Negro, and that he was once a member of the crack 10th U.

Captain Galmes mentioned that in the Bay of Yucatan are to be found several sunken cities that originally were founded by Negroes who had migrated from Africa via a stretch of land that lay between the two continents. The intervening continent being the loss Atlantic. NOTICE TO ATHLETES All boys wishing to enter the Y. M. C. A. track meet at Los Angeles, May 30 see Mr. Clarence Mills 485 S.

OPEN LETTER Dear Editor: I am a smoker and have been for years, but the lying advertisements that I see constantly in papers and on billboards cause me to use a bit of your space in telling the world my humble views which are as follows: Tobacco is harmful or else why do some of the largest business institutions refuse to hire people who smoke. Insanity is the increase, and cigarette smoking is one of the leading causes of this increase. Within my own circle of friends and acquaintances I have known many or at least several men whom it has killed. Tobacco is a poison that would not be urged upon you if there were not a profit for others in making you a victim. The one in ten million or more who survives and reaches a great age notwithstanding the use of tobacco or whisky, is the odd one who, because of some peculiarity in his constitution was able to generate an antitoxin that offset the poison of nicotine. Nicotine is a deadly poison. It is employed by gardeners in destroying plants on plants. Infants and children exposed continuously to the fumes of tobacco smoke, while not instantly killed, are stunted in their normal growth mental development is impaired and many of them die prematurely. Young single women should also think seriously, if tempted to take up the smoking habit. Some may think it will increase their popularity with young men, but in this they are due for a rude awakening. A questionnaire was submitted to three hundred men students in the University of California, Southern Branch, as to the kind of woman desired for a life companion. A composite picture taken from the three hundred replies included the very specific condition that she should not smoke. I say that smoking is an honor to no woman, and I don't think I'm narrow in saying this for I am a person of broad experience have traveled widely, and come into contact with all classes of people. It may interest you to know that I hold two athletic records, am far from being a sissy, and yet I declare that tobacco is a bad habit for men and women.

Zion church. The pastor, Rev. W. E. Shaw, preached a most appropriate sermon at 11:00 o'clock, so very practical were his remarks that much good is certain to result therefrom. Mrs. Charlotta A. Bass, of the California Eagle was unable to be present as scheduled on account of illness. Her secretary, Mrs. Edna Greene Smith was present, however, to explain the reason of her absence and at the same time, took a part on the program. An appreciative audience was in attendance.

The boards of the church are doing extremely well in supplying our pulpit during the absence of our pastor who is attending General Conference in Louisville, Ky. The Usher's Board and Willing Workers made the selection for last Sunday and through their efforts we were favored with the presence of the famous twin sisters, Bertha and Leatha. These young women preached for us at 11 a. m. and 3 p. m., and there is no question but what they are fulfilling the sacred task that has been assigned to them. Mme. A. C. Bilbrew has been requested to repeat "The New Minister," a playlet which has been highly endorsed by all who have witnessed it. This time it will be staged at Wesley Chapel, Eighth and San Julian, the evening of the 26th. Remember the public has a standing invitation to worship at Phillips Temple at all times. A. TRIP TO THE ACQUEDUCT- MARY E. REED The State Grand Lodge I. B. P. O.E of W. will convene in San Diego next Monday, May 26th. This body is composed of delegates representing the various lodges of Elks throughout the state also the state of Arizona and the Republic of Mexico. Golden West Lodge of this City will send a strong delegation, headed by Exalted Ruler J. S. Sutton and other lights of the kingdom of Elkdom. Quite an interest is developing in the great work of this order and it goes without saying they will give a good account of themselves. The phenomenal growth of the order in all sections has brought about a demand for the state organization and it is promised on due time to function to its fullest capacity and stand shoulder to shoulder with any in the confines of this jurisdiction. One of the interesting features about the organization for this jurisdiction is the fact that it includes the Republic of Mexico, there are several Lodges in this Republic which will be represented at San Diego at the Annual Session. District Deputy of the Grand Lodge, and State President of the Order, has left no stone unturned to make this session a memorable one also the Local Committees at San Diego cooperating are going to give the visitors a wonderful reception. The memorial services will be held on Sunday evening at one of the large Zion Church. Monday evening will be the Grand Ball while on Tuesday evening the public reception and Welcome by the various organizations and citizens headed by the Mayor will hold forth at the same place.

McDuff Traveling Deputy of W. and miles of the most beautiful charming, picturesque scenery, of gigantic hills, snow capped mountains fertile valleys until we arrived a Fairmount reservoir in Antelope Valley. Here we alighted and viewed the first water. Leaving there some miles distance we climbed a hill; here is located the kitchen and dining hall, where the faithful, efficient men eat. Here the table groaning with delicious food, cooked by a chef who really knows how, awaited us; and how we did eat. Soup, ham with canned sweet potatoes, roast beef with white potatoes and gravy, creamed carrots, peas, stuffed peppers, pickles, ple, pudding, coffee, ice tea. Then again down the hill to plant No. 1. Here we alighted again and were conducted into the plant, and all the details of the system explained. Gigantic pipes, running over mountains, and under mountains, the roaring of massive wheels, the churning of waters, the responsibility of men that sit and watch every movement of little hands on meters and little electric bulbs on a high electric table, which is checked on a chart every second, fairly makes your head swim at the immensity of it all. Then a few spaces to a picnic retreat where Mr. Alexander and Mr. Stigman talked to us on the history of Los Angeles' Water and Power. Then again down around hills, curves, with depths below, yet we were not afraid, because we believed in our efficient drivers. Plant No. 2 was reached at length where more rower is produced and where the water still drops lower, then on down again to plant No. 3. Here the water empties into an upper and then a lower reservoir as large as lakes, beautiful to behold. Every process of the water coming down is made purer and purer, that when it finally reaches our faucets it is very pure indeed. Then back home to dream and wonder over the wonderful benignity of man, the tremendous engineering art. the task of bringing water to our fair city. Announcement is made at this time of the scheduled appearance of a convenient new twenty-five cent size package of Adams' "Bandits," the better physic, in every drug store in California, as a companion size to the already popular fifty cent package. This new twenty-five cent package of the better physic will make its first appearance JUNE FIRST, 1930. The appearance of this new twenty-five cent package of the better physic marks the third anniversary of Adams' "Bandits" in California. This new package positively will contain genuine Adams' "Bandits". There can be no improvement made on the formula of Adams' "Bandits," it's perfect. The thousands upon thousands of satisfied users of the better physic will be pleased to know that not only have we devised this new twenty-five cent package of Adams' "Bandits" but we also have increased the quantity of Adams' "Bandits" more than fifty per cent in the already popular fifty cent package. This increase is possible because of the rapid and almost pheomenal increase in sales of the product in the last six months. Hundreds of thousands have been ever so anxious to take Adams' "Bandits" but have denied themselves the privilege because of the price and size of the original package. This handicap is entirely removed with the introduction of this new twenty-five cent package of Adams' "Bandits." They are within the reach of everybody now, commencing JUNE FIRST, 1930.

Brad- ley, 3th Vice-Pres. of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, in charge of St. Louis zone. Fields’ testified that on Oct. 3ist, 1926, when asked by the Porter In structor W. P.

The steamer Is sched- tiled to reach Durban on the 13th of July. I expect to reach home the game day’ because my people live only thirty-fige miles fgom Durban and can be reached easily by bus. During these three years-I have hac manv'new and interesting experi- ences. While studying.I have spoken, in several parts of the country before School and church groups, | have been very puch impressed by the democratic spitit shown in the colleges between professors and stu- dents.

Fitts also, it will be noted throws down the gauntlet to William Randolph Hearst’ and_ his string o newspapers, now . definitely agains Hoover. It took genuine nerve to! d that—but then. no one ever accuser Buron Fitts with lack of nerve.” Aiter an arraignment of asserted in. equalities in the state primary law the Dinuba Daily Sentinel comments thus “The editors of the Daily Sentinel who are naturally Republicans in thei; leanings. will register as such anc support Buron Fitts for the Republicar nomination for governor at the Aug: ust primaries,” “If you wish to do your part ir breaking up this state of lethargy.’ observes’ the Carpinteria Herald, “I you wish to lift the standarc’ of though’ in the state of California; if you wist to add a stimulus to our body politic which will not only bring up the stan dard of ideals in the state, but at the the same time establish a more health ful condition for our business and in: dustrial activities—vote for Buros Fitts for the Republican pominatio: for governor.” In the late A. Y, Tully's discerning political column of the Los Angele. Evening Express was this comment: “Certain tolks seem to be makin capital of Buron Fitts’ candidacy fo: Governor on the ground that he shoul remain where_he is until Los Angele equals the “Spotless Town.” The: have forgotten that he was, induced t fgive up the position of Lieutenan Governor upon the condition that h would remain only long enough t clean up the district attorney's office Who shall say that he has not per formed his’ part? Under Buron Fitt an old mud scow has become a ship 0 the line. Fitts’ aspiration for a large ship not only is natural, but commend able.” | THE SAN DIEGO UNION has thi to say: “We need a man at Sacramento wit! aggressive character.! the genius fo organization and the real integrity thal Mr. Fitts has displayed in Los Ange les.” After some discussion on the Juliar case the Banning Record obséfves “District Attorney Fitts is blamed for stirring yp all this trouble in the bes! families. In the u:d days it would have been possible to have everything soft. pedaled, but Mr. Fitts has a different way of doing things. If the people o: California want an honest deal in state government they will have 3 chance to vote on such a proposition in August." 4 In newspapers of the Copley chain -appears. an editorial commending Fitts from actively campaigning for ‘the governorship in reality are con- ducting the campaign for him. “There come to mind the ancient adage that ‘Actions speak louder than words,’ the editorial states. “Buron Fitts has announced his candicacy for the office of governor and in the opinion of the Enterprise he will be elected.” begins an editorial in \tNe Riverside Enternrice IN SAN FRANCISCO | It had been several months since ‘we had visited the great northern metropolis, and of course we were looking forward to the opportunity of again shaking hands and renewing acquaintances with our many friends.

The trip was-a beautiful one, senic {and otherwise. We had between longhs and handshakes with old time friends,’ relatives, and meeting new aequaintances, time to observe and re- flect. From the assortment’ of hand: shakes and hand-grips we received on the trip we came to the conclusion that if there was anything the Negro Was versed in it was fraternalism, ~ According to grips and signs han- ved us ‘there was, over and above some several we recognized, about, we presume, some eighty or ninety new orders in existence in the state. Great Scott, can you imagine? Seems like some ‘of these folks instead of studying the various assortment of hand-grips would really get down to the scientific study of gripping a shovel, hoe, plow or tractor. 1 suppose yon who read and at- tempt to keep abreast of the times have, by now, acquainted yourselves with the facis, furnished by the cen- susbrean, that this great state you're so fortunate to be dwelling in. has, hear me, donbled in population in the Past ten’ years.

Never a person used the king's Eng- lish more fluently than he. He was the personification of refinement; yet, whose, tongue was more foul than his? | Whose ming grovelled lower than his |when in the presence of jhis real con- | sorts? There's even a dignity ineussing. He was popular at college, a leader in church and. fratcrns circles, and a ‘Prince with the ladies. Women prided themselves in receiving his attentions, for he was so suave so cultured so charming. : Mr. Tone set the fashion in gentle- ‘men's dress. He knew how to lay a table-and how to use the soup spoon. His breath was never offensive, at least not in the presence of the ladies. The code of best social usage had become scond nature, The behavior of this man was a joy to behold. With all this, he lacked the inner essence of trie gentle- manliness, that true gallantry that ane often discovers in a tobacco-chewing, temperlos.iy rustic.

THAT WAS YOUNG JACK THOMPSON boxing the semi-windup to Tiger Flowers, then middleweight champion, and Sailor Eddie Huffman then a good contender. Your "Uppercutter" just arrived from the East was won by the kid's masterfulness and tagged him even then as a coming champion. Since then because or interest in him and because the "Soaring Eagle" is a personal friend of the family this column has been his biggest booster. It also got cussed and discussed some time back by false friends of his who were severely lambasted for their bad advice to a youngster who needs only the guidance of a ringwise father and a gentle loving mother. WE PARADED HIM to the train when he went to his first loss to Fields, but stuck to him just the same when he slipped quietly back, a loser. Alone we dug him out of seclusion, patted him on the back and encouraged him before a fickle crowd at White Sox Park who sat silent though they had cheered him to the echo two weeks before, when crowned as Dundee's conqueror. A CHAMPIONSHIP IN OUR RACE (the great one-tenth) means a lot. It proves that color is no bar to athletic prowess and fair-minded people always respect a winner. It makes doubters of other nationalities feel that there are possibilities of the Negro race succeeding in any line of activities and tends to bring the same broadmindedness in business as there is in sports. So that the white business man who will not hesitate to climb in the ring and sponge or fan the black fighter he is interested in will also not hesitate to hire his black brothers in his firm where only whites worked before. SO JACK be careful! You have important racial affairs in your hands. Continue as now a clean cut gentleman, credit to family and Hace. Be another Tiger Flowers; not necessarily a "Deacon" but of the same principles, which made the State of Georgia offer to let him fight a mixed bout there and the City of Atlanta offer him residence in a "restricted" section. We are with you win; lose or draw, but hold it as long as you can! Bacharach Giants Not To Organizs This Season ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. May 21—By A. N. P.—Prospjects for reorganization of the Bacharach Giants for the 1930 season are not bright and Ike Washington, owner of the club, has admitted that Chaney White, star centerfielder, who was signed to manage the Bees, has failed to communicate with him. It was learned that White is playing with the Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh. Unless some other devoted disciple of Izaak Walton brings positive a greater catch. Dr. Albert Baumann holds the title of having caught the largest bass on opening day of the season for this game fish. After a battle that thrills the heart of any fisherman he landed this prize beauty at Lake Wohlfard and when he weighed the big fellow the scales tip- ped 4 3-4 pounds. A picture was snapped of him before he stopped wiggling and stands as exhibit A. Besides this fellow he caught 12 more which gave him the California state limit of thirteen.

COLORED FANS PREPARE TO PACK WHITE SOX BALL PARK JACK McVEY AFTER WALKER'S CROWN Jack McVey, colored middleweight champion of the world who meets Joe Peregrina in the feature bout on Carlo Curtis' open air boxing show at White Sox ball, park the night of May 24. is the best colored middleweight since the days of Tiger Flowers, according to San Francisco I KNEW I COULD WHIP HIM, SAYS THOMP- SON NEW WEL- TERWEIGHT CHAMP CHICAGO. May 20—"I have never had the slightest doubt in the world about my superiority to Jackie Fields as a fighter," declared Young Thompson, the California welter, Sunday, after coming to Chicago from Detroit where he had just whipped Fields to win the world's championship welter-weight title. The new champion did not make the statement boastfully. Friends who listened to him knew from remarks which he had made before other fights that Thompson has always felt that the breaks have been against him in his other fights with Fields. These breaks are things that it isn't easy for a fighter to talk about. Fields whipped Thompson out in California, but the world at large will never know why from the lips of Thompson. Something happened in the first round out there, but it wouldn't do for a colored fighter to complain about it. He must just go on and fight. Something happened in the first round in the Chicago fight with Fields and still Thompson had to remain silent and has done so until this day. But he had a conviction that if he just kept on after Fields he would some day be on to all the stuff that could be pulled and on that day he would whip him. His victory justified his confidence in himself. Thus, in his own mind, he is not the pugilistic engina the white writers have tried to make out of him. He has never met a reverse in the ring which he could attribute to his lack of boxing skill or physical stamina. He has therefore felt that some day this break would be with him. Fields was decisively whipped. In his pre-battle statement the white champion had declared that Thompson didn't like speed and that he was going to show him plenty of it and finish him off early. Thompson had stated that Fields would burn himself out and he would whip him in the late rounds. Fields carried out his promise and had the latter of the fighting in the first five rounds. But from that point on, he was almost completely out of it. Seldom has a champion been beaten worse than he was. Ring-side writers gave Thompson ten rounds. Fields three, and declared two even. The new champion plans to be a real fighter. He knows the ranks of the weiterweights are filled with good men, but he says that any of the white boys can have their chance. Mc Larnin, Fields, Young Corbett, or any of the rest. All he asks is a resonable period between fights. He has promised Fields a return bout before the Detroit fight. However, Fields was so soundly beaten that he may not wish another battle. After the fight, Fields broke down in his dressing room and cried because he lost and admitted that he had lost to a better man. "I'll never be champion again," he complained. Except for a slight cut over the eye, Thompson appeared to be in splendid shape Sunday. He appeared on the boulevard smartly attired in a gray weight champion of the world who bout on Carlo Curtis' open air boxing night of May 24, is the best colored r Flowers, according to San Francisco and Oakland ring crifites who saw him in action against Wesley Ketchell and Joe Roche. McVey is a combination boxer and puncher and is said to be a willing mixer. He is a more experienced fighter than Perigrina, having campaigned through the east for a number of years. He has boxed Dave Shade, Pete Latzo and other top notchers and won the colored middleweight championship in a great bout with Gorilla Jones. Young Jack Thompson's decisive victory over Jackie Fields for the welterweight championship has suddenly added new interest in the activities of the colored boxers. McVey is now o n the trail of Mickey Walker for a battle for the world's middleweight championship. Walker won the title from Tiger Flowers, and McVey's supporters believe that he has a very good chance to restore the title to the colored race. Promoter Curtis has lined up a strong cards to support the middleweights. The main event is scheduled for ten rounds and the preliminary card will be for 30 rounds, one ten, two sixes and two fours. Local favorites will appear in all of the bouts, two of them against two Japanese boxers who will come south from San Francisco. One of the invaders is a lightweight and the other a welter. Following is the complete card for Carlo Curtis' open air boxing show at White Sox Ball Park, Thirty-eighth and Compton, Saturday night— Joe Peregrina vs. Jack McVey, ten rounds, 160 pounds. Andy Martin vs. Benny Kid Carter, ten rounds, 126 pounds. Joe Borola vs. Jiro Kumagai, six rounds, 135 pounds. Abie Miller vs. Danny Robles, six rounds, 124 pounds. Augie Curtis vs. Phil Villanueva, four rounds, 112. Kintaro Usuda vs. Phil Raznick, four rounds, 145 pounds. Columbus "Y" Sets Membership Record COLUMBUS, OHIO.
