HEAR REV. BOB SHULER BETH EDEN BAPTIST CHURCH 3 P. M. SUNDAY VOLUME 43 Be not deceived; God is not mocked; for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.--Galatians 6:7. SOW THE WIND AND REAP THE WHIRLWIND EVEN IN POLITICAL campaigns we sometimes sow seeds we would fain not reap for what does it benefit a man to gain the applause of the people for a minute if the by-path in which he achieves his desire was gain- de by unfair means or at the expense of the character or reputation of a fellow creature. We are interested in many things but our chief interest is the permanent placement of our group as full-fledged American citizens enjoying equal rights and privileges with other Americans without special reservation; and we have dedicated ourselves to the cause of promoting a better understanding among us. We have neither social, religious or political prejudices. We are for Attorney Eugene C. Jennings getting a berth on the Superior Court bench because we believe he possesses the qualities and has had the training and experience that amply fits him for said position. It has come to us that we were responsible for certain other persons entering the race for the Assembly in the 62nd Assembly District against the Hon. Frederick M. Roberts, which charge we brand as being false to the very core. We realize that such a step at this time but means that if the vote in the 62nd District is sufficiently split up, this place will he lost to the group. THE LITTLE GIANT CHARLES H. ALSTON, head of the Rolph-For-Governor forces, it appears is not running with his old gang this time, but the little giant is trying to save the Rolph gubernatorial ship from the rocks, hence he presides over his meetings with that dignity becoming his station, but as was indicated at the 20th Street School meeting last Tuesday evening, Colonel Alston just could not hold 'em in check. At this meeting the speakers' line-up said in introducing themselves, "We are out to make a non-mud slinging campaign, but the gentleman who was first to commit himself to this plan of procedure was the very first to heave a spade of mud that hit us in the face, for said this clergyman. "There is a lady present who claims that Fitts is God's man. I want to say that if Fitts is God's man, she and I are not acquainted with the same God, for my God would never offer us gubernatorial timber from Texas." Well, I want to agree with my good Baptist brother and dean in this statement, for my God is a God of love who reigns in the hearts of men and not in sections, neither North-South, East or West, nor is he a respector of nations but the Father of mankind. This same speaker accused Buron Fitts of "coupe de at," for said he "Fitts served as Lieutenant Governor for a little while then moved over to the station of District Attorney where he has been a short time, now it seems that he wants to make another change to the Governor's chair." It would be an insult to this learned preached's intelligence to accuse him of not knowing that neither city, county nor state officials rotate in office according to their own volition but are subject to the will of the people. Buron Fitts has demonstrated both character and ability that ally fits him as the one man in this glorious State who is prepared by virtue of his fearlessness to put our political house in order. The Honorable Buron Fitts, who has resided in this city and state since he was four years of age, is product of Los Angeles schools and hence, by environment and rearing is a son of the Golden West. A small baby, whose tender bones waxed strong neath the rays of a California sun, and whose infant mind, ripened into maturity fanned by the zephirs of the placid Pacific, cannot be fairly accused of being that brand of Texan who knows not law or order. Yes, in all sincerity I call him God's man, the son of Fate, who struggled up from obscurity with that courage of conviction that right—not might—will save California from the evil days that (Continued On Page Ten) Sensational Divorce SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ALUMNI ASSOCIATION SCORES WITH 22ND ANNUAL RECEPTION MEDAL PRESENTED TO T. A. GREENE By: HARRY LEVETTE Calif. Federation of Co ored Women's Clubs Holds 24th Anniver sary in Oakland, California 1930 MRS. ELIZABETH EDWARDS MRS. J. M. EDWARDS, LOS AN GELES CLUB WOMAN ELECTED STATE PRESIDENT With a large delegation from cities all over California present, the State Feedration of Colored Women's Clubs opened with one of the finest mass meetings in the history of the organization. The sessions were held at the First A. M. E. Church, Fifteenth and Market Streets. Mrs. Z. Otey Smith. State President of the organization, delivered the principal address. "We should work for closer inter-racial co-operation." Mrs. Smith urged in her address, "for that side of our work has not been sufficiently stressed." We should be active missionaries, putting forward our best efforts to clear away ignorance and superstition. The hope of California lies in her ability to enable the many races within her borders to live together in peace and harmony." Addresses of welcome were delivered by Major L. Davis of Oakland, Mrs. Artedia representing Alameda County Public Welfare, Mrs. Daly, local editor, and Miss Matthews of Central Y. W. C. A. A grand reception marked the close of the first evening's activities. Welcome on behalf of the N. A. A. C. P. was extended by Dr. Nelson; of the Ministeral Alliance by Rev. Hubbard; of Business and Professional Men by Dr. O. Roy Busch; of the Councellor's Round Table by Attorney Virginia Stevens; and of the Hostess' Section by Mrs. Chlora Sledge, president of the northern sec (Continued On Page Five) "Facing the rising sun of our new day begun. Let us march on until victory is won." With the stirring notes of the Negro National Anthem to inspiring them 197 graduates from local educational institutions, and four from the County Hospital, again made history for the twenty-second year as the Southern California Alumni Association met with its annual reception, at Wesley M. E. Church last Tuesday night. And never more fully was the importance of this time honored local institution revealed than a glance around the crowded auditorium into the faces of mothers, fathers other relatives and friends all depicting, pride, happiness and common bond of interest. It could readily be seen why it is one time when a reception as it is the one time when the local race group may receive in one body the young people who armed with the accounts for a battle with life, are to re-enforce them in a struggle for advancement and the only time when they can meet each other under such favorable circumstances for the formation of lasting valuable contacts. Schools and colleges re-presented were Belmont, Compton, David Starr Jordan, Lincoln, L. A.; Manual Arts; Monrovia, Muir Tech.; Pasadena? Poly, Pomona; Roosevelt and Santa Monica High Schools, Central Junior and Pasadena Junior Colleges also U. S. C. and U. C. L. A. Besides these were the Frank Wiggins Trade School. Attracting special attention in their snowy white full uniforms were four nurses from the L. A. General Hospital. "Y" EXECUTIVE GREENE HQNQRED Doubtlessly the most important event of the evening was the first presentation of an outstanding citizen to be selected each year as to the influence and value of his work in the community. This was Mr. T. A. Green who for the past twenty-two years has faithfully, honorably and self sacrificingly labored to build the local branch of the Y. M. C. A. into the noble institution it is now.

Among the more than one thousand women who greeted Mr. Fitts on this occasion were about fifty women of our group, and it was indeed pleasing to see the beautiful picture which (Continued On Page Five) LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1930 Bordering on the sensational was the news release this week of the filing of divorce proceedings by Mrs. Fay Jackson Robinson, well known literary genius, journalist and former editor and owner of the Newsmagazine the FLASH, against her husband Dr. John Robinson, well known physician of this city. Mrs. Robinson alleges in her complaint filed in the Domestic Relations Court, which complaint is No. D. 86-486, that the Doctor has been guilty of Extreme Cruelty and infidelity to wit inhuman and cruel treatment while she was ill, refusal to call in another physician while she suffered. Intimate with another woman (not named) in complaint, before a minor child; allowed the co-respondent to berate and threaten the life of the plaintiff and many other sensational allegations. Atty. Griffith Jones represents the plaintiff and asks for his client alimony and custody of their one child and divisions of community property. Plaintiff when asked to name the correspondent said—a rose by any other name would smell as sweet—Asked for a general statement. Mrs. Robinson, said my statement is already recorded. The marriage of Dr. and Mrs. Robinson. November 28, 1925 was the culmination of a college romance when they were wedded at Ventura. They are the parents of a girl child 4-years of age. Dr. Robinson could not be located as we go to press to make a statement. No doubt the case will attract wide attention on account of the prominence of the parties concerned and involved. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:— I am noC to speak at any meeting in behalf of the candid acy of Governor-C. C. Young. I had agreed to speak at a Study Club or Colored ladies at some place to be held on July 10th, 1930, on the subject of "How the Colored, People can get Proportionate Representation in Government." I also agreed to speak on the further subject of the "Elimination and Character Assassination of the Various Colored Political Adherents in the Course of their Campaign Efforts." No one is authorized to advertise or publish in any manner my speaking in behalf of the political candidacy of Governor C. C. Young. In the very beginning I spoke of the candidacy of Buron Fitts for Governor. I stand by that decision. And while I do not quarrel with the personal right of Colored citizens to support whom they may choose as candidates for Governor. I feel that the sole reason upon which a candidate should be supported is the advancement of the best interests of the Colored citizens of the district. In the past none of the candidates have paid much attention to the interests of Colored people. Buron Fitts has evidenced more vigor along this line than any other candidate to date. If, and when, any other candidate gives promise of more practically and fairer results to the Colored people I shall feel free to support their candidacy, for my sole concern is the advancement of my people. With the limited resources at his command Buron Fitts has done more to date in proportion for the Colored people of the State than has either Governor Young or Mr. Rolph in my opinion. Very respectfully yours. HUUGH E. MACBETH. C. C. FLINT PIONEER CITIZEN GIVES SOUND ADVISE ON GUBERNATIONAL SITUATION The greatest question:—Politically speaking in our State now-a-days. The one question that seems to be upon the lips of everyone, and it is right and proper that it should be, for all good citizens are keenly interested in the kind and manner of man who is to preside over the affairs of our State as chief executive for the next four years.—"Which of the Candidates will make the best Governor. Which of the Candidates should the colored voter support, whom are you gonig to vote for, for Governor in the coming primaries, and etc." To all such questions the following is my answer: First of all our present Governor, Mr. C. C. Young is a member in good standing of the Johnson Political Machine, which machine has always been unkind in its altitude to our group. The Big Chief of this Machine is no other than our present Senator Hiram Johnson. If Senator Johnson ever had one generous impulse, or one advance thought in the interest of his Colored Fellow Citizens, God only knows, for no one else does. Those who are boosting for Governor Young tell us that his record is good, that he has made a splendid Governor. Perhaps so, but the fact remains that our State Commissioners appointed by Governor Young have been more generous to the incorporate interest of our State than they have been to the great mass of people, especially in matters of public utilities, because of which fact we suffer along with our white Fellow Citizens, from excessive and exorbitant charges for domestic gas, telephone, and extra two cent street car fare. It does seem from the way they have taken care of Big Business, that they were appointed for Big Business only. But it so happens that the people have some rights, which our State Commissioners should be bound to respect regardless of who appointed them. While Governor Young has not been the least generous to our group in matters of representation in the public service of the state, yet we thank him for the friendly spirit shown us, and because of the fact he has not gone out of his way to deal with us unjustly in racial matters as others have done. That Mayor Rolph of San Francisco is a splendid man in many respects there can be no doubt. This is evident from his long and successful career in the public service of San Francisco, which he has served continuously for the past eighteen years, in a manner that has met the approval of the majority of the Citizens of that City, excepting our group. For some reason best known to himself, he has not seen fit to give us the same kindly consideration as Citiznes that we are entitled to, in common with other Citizens. All of the colored employees that have held positions in the City government dur- Mr. Fowler's articles written about the folk of this city thirty years ago on more are enjoyed by all the old timers, and he should confine his writings to this for he seems to know little of the present doings of our city and most especially things pertaining to our women. He writes like a man out in the desert who only visits the city every thirty years. In Mr. Fowler's Political Column of a local paper last week he points out that Mrs. Charlotte Bass and Mrs. Betty Hill should fall in behind a leader that he has designated and sever their relationship with white leaders. I happen to be associated with Mrs. Bass and Mrs. Hill so this gives me a right to be heard. These women through hard work (Continued on Page 5) The success of the Life Insurance business as other business depends primarily on production, and the agents are the producers. In 1925 the Golden State Insurance Company started with three agents. At that time, as a result of propaganda by other Life Insurance companies, many people were of the opinion that Negro agents could not sell insurance, even to members of their own race. five years' experience by this growing giant of the west, the Golden State Insurance Company has not only discredited such false propaganda, but proven to the insurance world beyond the shadow of a doubt that colored agents are not only capable of selling to their own people, but to anyone desiring Life Insurance Protection. The Company has increased its agency staff to the point where it now has in excess of seventy-five active agents, men and women making a success of this chosen profession. These agents received special training in insurance salesmanship from the Company's efficient instructors and many of them have been able, through the opportunities offered them, to become property owners. Their debits and collections have increased so rapidly that most of them have found it necessary to purchase automobiles to assist them in covering their territories. Forty-five of the members of the staff use automobiles, in the performance of their duties. McGALLA FORGING AHEAD Mr. Vernon McCalla is at present leading the staff in production in the Accident and Health department. He has forged ahead writing insurance until today he is the proud possessor of the Championship Button, which is awarded each month to the agent who produces the largest increase in Accident and Health business. He has held this honor for the past two months. In the recent contest he carried off the highest honors and won, in addition to cash prizes offered, the honor of first prize, which was a very nice suit of clothes. D. C.

Winifred is the only daughter of Mrs. Ragsdale, of 1109 E. Pico Street. Number 4 The officers of Beth Eden Baptist church, 27th and Paloma streets, have arranged for the presence of the Rev "Bob" Shuler at their edifice for Sunday, July 6th at 3 p. m. The occasion is the closing of the big rally which has been going on for some weeks. The far famed preacher will contribute his mite by his presence and speech, the subject of which will be "Behind the Bars for Freedom." There is no question but the Fighting Parson will be greeted by a capacity crowd, the only question will be to get there in time to get inside. Despite the fact the auditorium of this church will hold more than 2000 persons this condition will prevail. The church officials have also procured the services of the famous Grant Chapel choir to sing several numbers upon this notable occasion. The male quartet of the Beth Eden church will also render a number. The editor of this publication has been asked and accepted the invitation to act as Master of Ceremonies on this day. Rev. E. L. Burkhalter is the pastor, and N. Stevens the clerk of this church. South Carolina Governor Thoroughly Aroused Over Lynching FLAYS SHERIFF AND OFFICERS FOR NEGLIGENCE (By: A. N. F.): Columbia, S. C., July 2.—The lynching of Dan Jenkins here recently, along with the statement of Sheriff J. C. Greer, who was in charge of the officers searching for the fugitive that he was not able to recognize any member of the mob, has aroused theire of Governor Richards and he expressed himself in no uncertain terms here Tuesday in discussing the lynching. Sherif Greer along with several other officers was nearing the spot, according to reports at the inquest, where Jenkins was lynched just as the mob riddled their victim's body with bullets. He reported to the governor that despite the fact that he was near the place, he did not recognize any of the mobsters and could not effect an entrance among their number. His statement was almost similar to that of W. A. Robinson, a rural policeman. GOVERNOR SUSPENDS SHERIFF While the governor has not stated definitely, it is believed here that the sheriff will be suspended until a full investigation is made of his conduct and activities before and during the lynching. "The sheriff told me," said the governor, "that he did not know a soul in the mob; that he could not get into the mob to see its members. I consider his conduct most reprehensible. "I am doing everything that I can do to land the guilty people in jail. If I had been informed sooner of the situation I could have prevented the trouble, but I had to get in touch with the sheriff and when I reached him the Negro had been lynched." The governor, according to his statement, was not told of the alleged attack or the activities of the mob until thirty minutes before the lynching was effected and the information was not then relayed to him by the sheriff but by Lewis Rice, editor of the Union newspaper. He was taken by surprise due to the sheriff's negligence but immediately ordered the national guard mobilized and to proceed to the scene. This was done but the soldiers arrived thirty minutes too late to save Jenkins. TROOPS GUARD BODY The national guardsmen who arrived too late to protect the life of Jenkins remained on duty guarding the bullet-laden body of the victim as it lay in a local undertaking establishment and escorted it to the cemetery where it was lowered into a pauper's grave. This precaution was taken on account of reports that the mob was laying plans to take the body and burn it in the Negro section of the little town in order "to warn other women." No attempt was made to carry out this threat. The governor has ordered a com- (Continued on Page 8) Transfer your funds TO THE LIBERTY BUILDING LOAN ASSOCIATION 2512 S.

Manners, Says Emerson, are the happy ways of doing things. Manners are more important than laws. According to their quality they aid morals, they supply them or they totally destroy them. A few don't in etiquette of manners: Don't apologize if you tread upon or stumble against anyone. Don't fail to notice elderly people. Don't have the habit of grinning, a smile or a laugh is proper in place. Don't clean your ears or your nose not trim and clean your finger nails in public. Don't use a forced laugh while in conversation. Don't gap in company. Don't laugh boisterously. Don't be inquisitive about the af- fairs even of your most intimate friend. Don't go untidy on the plea that everybody knows you. Don't be too positive. Don't expect too much from other people, but encourage them to expect a great deal from you. Don't be over-familiar. A lady should always have an escort after night fall for safety and as a matter of etiquette. A lady should conduct herself on the street in such a manner as to not attract attention. NEW YORK WOMAN AP POINTED TO POSITION HELD BY LATE HUSBAND Mrs. Louise M. Jackson, 277 West 130th street, New York City, widow of Major William H.

Francis Drake, vice-president of the Police Commission. Commissioner Drake delivered a plain, commonsense talk, that was highly appreciated by the large number present. Commissioner Drake informed the Forum that under the present person-nell of the Police Commission, the day of the fixer and self-constituted boss was a thing of the past. He said the entire Police Commission stood for a fair deal for all groups of citizens. Attorney Willis O. Tyler, by invitation, made a few remarks concerning the segregation at the swimming pool and the confusion of the property rights of our citizens caused largely by the white realty board. Mrs. C. A. Bass was granted an opportunity to speak upon the political situation as if existed in this city at the beginning of this most important political campaign, followed by several other members of the Forum, after which Mr. Pitts made a motion that was unanimously adopted as being the attitude of the Forum concerning the present political activities of some of the so-called political organizations; Resolved, that it is the sense of the Los Angeles Forum that those of our group who contact political candidates for what little money they can get from these candidates and who make speaking dates and banquet dates for candidates among our people for money, they put in their own pockets are political traitors to our race and the city, and deserve the condemnation of all self-respecting citizens. Sunday, June 29th, there will be an election of officers for the ensuing year. All members are requested to be present at 4:30 p. m.—C. W. Stafford, President; Wm. H. Duncan, Reporter.

VACATION A PROBLEM FOR PARENTS By THOMAS ROWLETT When school begins, we that are parents are often glad, because it affords us an opportunity to get "Jean, and Johnnie" off our hands for a few hours of the day, and not be worried as to their wher cabouts, as they are in school. (At least we think so.) Now as schools are closing all over the country for summer vacations to give rest from scholastic duties the minds of millions of our boys and girls, our worries begin again. I wonder if the parents of these children are giving serious consideration of how their child shall spend that time, whether that time is to be wasted in idleness, or put to use to the best advantage of the child? This is a responsibility of all parents, and one not to be shirked, with such sayings as "Oh Johnnie has worked so hard this school term, that it is a pity to him down for these few months." Or "Jean has a mind of her own, and besides I haven't time to be bothered, what ever she does is allright with me." These are some of the mistakes that parents usually make, which is altogether wrong. As everyone knows the age old axiom, "An idle mind is the devil's work shop." Then why not as the guides of the destinies of our future men and women give these young minds, and hands something to do, thus avoiding the devil's work shop? I do not advocate cutting the child's simple pleasure, such as playground recreation, that afford various athletic sports, which the average youngster enjoys, neither am I against moving pictures providing they are the right sort, etc. Really what I am driving at is the youngster who aimlessly wanders about the street from morning till night getting into this thing, and that, and two thirds of the time his parents do not even know where he is. To the Parent of this Type of Child am I most Especially Appealing. Some parents will ask, well what can we do? I would suggest to do this: First let every child have some duties to perform every day at a time, this will instill in him a sense of responsibility, let the duties be in the home, at the office, or where ever they may be for that matter. Now let it be the Duty of the Parent to see it that each and every obligation is fulfilled by the youngster, then after having done this, if the child has something that it would like to do, let it consult You. His Parent, and not until the parent is throughly satisfied, that what the child would like to do, would be in keeping with the order of things in general. Then, and Not Until Then should the consent of the parent be given, permitting the child to carry out its own will. This is only a suggestion, and I am sure that after giving it careful thought that there are parents among us, who will no doubt have even better ideas. --- No fraternal order ever made a better showing.

In view of the fact that this is an area of unemployment, and with so many organizations opposed to Negro labor, it is quite interesting to know the attitude of the Press Club, an organizations composed of newspaper writers and reporters, those moulders of public opinion. At their luxurious club rooms they employ an all Negro staff. The cuisine, rated with the best in the west is in the very capable hands of chef Vernon Gray, and his assistants. Mr. Len Howard, presides over staff of well trained waiters, Mr. Mack Murphy and Mr. Ike Reynolds are shelf keepers, Miss Clara Burleson is the librarian and ladies attendant. Mr. Wise Pollard is the club's custodian. The raths-cellar is presided over by Jimmie Smith who also tickles the ivories. Others employed at the Press Club are, Mr. Zelmer Walls, Mr. Walter Nelson, Mr. A. Washington, Mr. Jno. Hollins Mr. C. Wortham and Mr. Archie Carliss. The President of the Press Club is Mr. Walter Merrick, of the Illustrated Daily News, Mr. Merrick, being also the active Manager is due a lot of credit for his impartial recognition of race artists, who have appeared at the club's shows, along side of stellar performers of other races. All of them are in one accord in their praise of Mr. Merrick's generosity and the publicity and prestige that comes from appearing at the club's shows. The following are some of our race artists who have appeared at the Saturday matinees: Mildred Washington, Teddy Peters, Roberta Hyson, Sam McDaniels, Baby Mack, Sue Hoy, Edith Spencer, Babe and Eddie Mathews, Mae Williams Thela Porter, Thurston Briggs, Allegretta Anderson, Walter Johnson, Buster Wilson Mary Richardson, Gry Baby Curtis and a host of others.

WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH CALIFORNIA THIS URBAN LEAGUE situation, as we see it, is a question of moment for our consideration and in expressing ourselves, we feel that we voice the sentiment of the majority of the thinking folk of this, our city. It is understood that our institutions of education in this State rank head of the list; now, why is it necessary for us to import men from the East to fill the positions in our local Urban League. Is it not a fact that Louis Tennette is ably prepared to carry on the work of the Urban League of this city, and if not, why not? We have made some investigations as to Mr. Tennette's record in this connection and found that it stood the test of those who decide as to the fitness of certain individuals is for this sort of social service work. Tennette lives in Los Angeles, is the father of a family, his record here is clean, his educational qualifications for social service work ranks high, hence it is our opinion that the citizens of Los Angeles should demand at this time that Louis Dining Dancing APEX NITE CLUB 4015 SO.

J. N. DAVIS 36th Pl., Los Angeles, Calif RAILROAD CLATTER COAST DOINGS By Charles L. Upton FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1930 PETER Upton Says I Have just found out what folks call the Missing Link. It has been missing a long time, but the bugs finally brought it to light. Now it is not a mystery any more. For many years, yes centuries it has been a Missing Link to my people, but no more! What Link? Of what Missing Link do you speak? The miniature Golf Link, you goose! L. GRANT DEFEATED IN OBTAINING SEPERATE BIDS ON SUNSET POOL- L. Grant, one of the foxiest old timers operating out of the Los Angeles District, came very near putting one of this cunning little tricks over on a group of innocent porters now operating in the Sunset Pool. Mr. Grant has tried two or three times to change the operation of the porters running on the Sunset. His plan was to have all the cars operated by Los Angeles porters in the Sunset Pool, put up for separate bid. If he was successful in having this procedure go into effect, it would freeze out a number of the younger porters now operating in the Pool, and also put a large majority of them on the worst cars. The Railroad Clatter has always fought Mr. Grant's plan very bitterly and the porters as a general rule have been wise enough to take heed, and by so doing prevented Grant's plan from going into effect, thereby saving themselves the embarrassment of operating on the bad paying cars on this train. Mr. Grant never did give up trying to put it over, even after he was defeated in the movement the first time. Being the foxy old porter that he is, he has waited for an opportune time to try his plan again, and it came just recently. Everything was all cut and dried and the cards were breaking in Grant's favor when the Superintendent issued an order that required all porters of the Pool catching car 89 passing thru Los Angeles, to assist the New Orleans porters in cleaning same while in the yards. This order was not very well received by the porters, and the cunning Grant sensing the dissatisfaction, grasped the opportunity to make another try on his old time-worn plan in separating the cars in order that he and a few older porters could lap up the gravy. He sent one of his trusty lieutenants to spread his communistic doctrine among the porters, thereby deduing them into the belief that it was for the best interests of all the porters on the line to have the cars separated, and in fact was smooth enough with his scheme to sign up enough porters to give him a majority of the men in the Pool. However, a porter operating in the Pool who happened to be just as wise to the conditions as Mr. Grant, if not a little wee bit wiser, blocked the whole darn thing by seeking a conference with thing by seeking a conference with the Superintendent and requesting a hearing when the petition was presented by Mr. Grant and his cohorts. When the boys did bring in the golden petition with the majority of the signatures on it, the Superintendent sent them back with the consolation that if it was thrown open to the District, he would not object to it. They went away with glad hearts, and speedy feet and circulated another petition, getting a very slight majority and returned with glee written all over their faces. However, in the mean time, this lone porter who was making a brave fight for existence, had been around to all the porters who had foolishly signed the two petitions, presented by Grant, and explained to them that they were cutting off their nose to spite their face, and had them sign a petition of his own, also an affidavit stating the reason why they had changed their minds. The result was Mr. Grant and this porter both showed up with a majority of the porters' signatures, but the porter routed Mr. Grant entirely when he produced bonified affidavits. Of course "Daddy" Grant has got a big holter and claims he was double-crossed, but he was simply beat at his own game. PORTERS GET LINE TO BUTTE— WILL REQUIRE NINE MEN— Los Angeles porters have at last obtained the thru operation of a line to Butte, Montana. For years and years this line has been a turn-over line at Salt Lake City. Los Angeles If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened 847 Central Avenue porters operated the car as far as Salt Lake City, and then turned the car over to a Salt Lake porter, who as a rule would reap a harvest off the Los Angeles porter's labor and thrus passengers. Some of the old timers on the line used to claim that they liked this arrangement, but the majority dway down in their hearts would rather go all the way to Butte with their passengers then take a chance of getting something out of them at Salt Lake, which is just about half way. Years ago this line was a mint for the porters. They would get some of those Montana miners and would reap a harvest, but later years, just as in everything else the bottom dropped out of the tipping market and the porters were lucky enough to make eating money. Coleman and Hawkins operated this line for years. Hawkins used to point out half of the ground between Los Angeles and Salt Lake City as the ground that he owned, the most of it is desert, and he is welcome to that part of it. Nobody has ever been able to get rich off of desert land to my knowledge but Death Valley Scotty The new operation of the line will require nine porters, and I understand that all vacancies have already been allotted. The boys will find plenty of snow in the winter, and another pest they will have to contend with is a Pullman inspector or agent or something of that kind, who gets on the train at every old flag stop with a pencil in hand. As a rule he writes you up first and then asks you if you did it afterward, and I do not have to mention what a write-up on a porter means in this District. It is just too bad, that's all! PULLMAN, PORTERS SACRIFICE RIGHTS TO LIVE IN L. A Years ago a porter could transfer from one District to another, and still maintain his seniority rights. For instance as an explanation to the readers of this column who are not familiar with the different phases in railroading; if a porter who had put twenty years in the service out of Chicago, desired to come to Los Angeles and make this his home, he could, do so by filing a request with the Pullman Superintendent of his District, and when he was transferred he would still hold the same rights that he held when he was operating out of his former home. This, however has been changed, and if a porter wishes to make a change to another District at the present time, he loses all the rights that he had in the District he transfers from and goes on the extra list. Therefore a 20-year man in the service transferred to Los Angeles from some other District, has got to hit the extra board, in fact a porter who has just been in the service a week, if he hires out in the District has got more rights than the 20-year porter, even though he has not seen nearly the service that the 20-year porter has seen. While this is considered a fair method of dealing with the transgressor, in one way, it works a hardship on the older porter. It is surprising how many porters who have been in the service for a great many years, have transferred to Los Angeles, sacrificing their seniority rights for the older porters who live back east where the weather is so severe. Los Angeles has great attraction. It is felt more by men who are fast approaching the half century mark. I know, at least 25 porters who have sacrificed their rights to make Los Angeles their home; in fact Los Angeles is a district which has until recently been set aside as a transfer District. Very few porters up until the time that the present Superintendent took charge, were hired outright. The Los Angeles District was purposely kept open for transferred porters, and up until a few years ago, porters who transferred here received their full rights. However, the present Superintendent has fired so many porters since he has taken charge of this District, that the amount of prospective transferred porters was not enough to take care of the Pullman business, therefore a number of new porters had to be hired. A few of the porters who have made a big sacrifice in rights to make Los Angeles their home are as follows: W. A Hall, G. A. Corbin, M. B. Brazley, E. L. Armand, J. Bell, Sr., S. H. Burnett, W. Glenn, King Johnson, C. Fletcher, R. Hicks, S. Miller and L. Thropay, also H. B. Wilson. This is not nearly all of the porters who have made a big sacrifice to be under the iron rule of the present Superintendent. If space would permit I could name at least a dozen or so more. Los Angeles must be a fine place to live in when porters can make up their minds to leave good rights and lucrative runs in their home Districts, but such is life and one never knows just what they will do or where they will end. TEXAS-NEW MEXICO RAIL BRANCH OPENS— Ceremonies marking the completion pletion of the Texas-New Mexico rail as the road into Lovington were attended by nearly 10,000 persons. Governor R. C. Dillon of New Mexico pulled the throttle of the engine which brought ten Pullmans and Company business cars into Lovington. U. S. COURT MAY RULE ON DEPOT— The railroads opposing a State Railroad Commission order directing construction of a $10,000,000 Union Station in Los Angeles, announced today they had perfected an appeal to the United States Supreme Court. The roads contesting the order are the S. P., Los Angeles & Salt Lake and the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Regardless of this appeal the citizens of Los Angeles stand a mighty good chance of seeing the State Supreme Courts' decision uphold as only in very rare exceptions, is the verdict reversed by the higher court. Los Angeles needs a new terminal. They are away behind time in just now reaching the verge of having one built. Having been in court for a number of years in an effort to get a favorable ruling against the powerful railroads, who even went so far as to show the court whereby they could eliminate all danger in traffic by elevating instead of putting the tracks underground as they do in other cities, the delay in traffic caused by the S. P., alone at Seventh and Almada streets is costing the city thousands of dollars each year. Let us hope that a Union Station will soon be under course of erection in the wonder city of the world. PULLMAN HOT SHOTS— Porters go out on the road now days with the feeling that it is their last trip. When a porter comes to the sign out room and sees his name in the top list, he begins at once to look for another job. No porter in this District can feel safe under present conditions. Stool pigeons, or no stool pigeons. If you think you stand in good, get "wrote-up." In fact you do not have to get written up; they'll take care of that part. Just get in bad. Heware of a certain Pullman official who grins in your face and pats you on the back. He will cut your throat when you least suspect. I will tell you more about him later, and will also call his name so you will know just who he is. The office help are just as bad off as you are. They are afraid to say, boo, when a certain man is around. It's worse than slavery times with them! Why should one white man fear another one? Read the Railroad Clatter and I will tell you all.

BATEMAN Carry me back to Ole Virginny Dah's whah de cotton and de corn and tatoes grow. Dah's whah de birds warble sweet in in de springtim Dah's whah dis ole dahkeys heart does long to go. Am I really in Virginia or am I just a small child again, sitting in the pews of dear old M. Zion; leaning with heart and soul on the words of the man, under the strong wings of whose spirit, my feeble one is born upward? The sunbeams that filter in through the stained window glass seems no different from that, that I used to dreamly watch as it crept in, stealing silently across the straight backs of the myriad brown chairs, in the church of my childhood. It would seem natural for me, on walking outside to see on the opposite corner, the Golden West Hotel in the hey day of it's popularity. The corner drug store, that had in its crowded space a table or two where lovers met on pretense of slipping sodas and we kids, with our Sunday nickels hot in our hands, stood around trying to decide between ice cream cones and candy, wanting both. I am seeing again the formidable backs of the line of factories that reared themselves up mockingly against this lonely house of worship. I hear the faint clang, clanging of the Santa Fe engines. To complete the halucination, my mother sits by the side of me, above my sister leads the choir and the pastor of old Mt. Zion seems so much at home here. I hear him speaking. He is saying something about my family. That too is not unusual, such a large family and all active in the church, thus highly improbable that a service could pass without mention of some of them. Then I hear my name called, mention made in such commendatory terms, "chemist," organizer, "scholar." little me! With a start, I am no on my feet, several hundred persons wait the opening of my lips that they may opinionate me, and all this time I have been dreaming, happy in living again an hour or two in the gloriousness or the dreams of my childhood. I speak, words coming up out of my heart, for I surely had none in my mind. "Twas over, then the hearty hand shawke! I look into their eyes reading here above all things sincerity Instinctively I know the meaning of the phrase "Virginian hospitality." It is a synonym for purity of heart in one's relationship with their fellow men. The joyous brightness of the morning service is somewhat bedimmed by the draping of the pulpit in mourning. The funeral of a faithful member is to be preached directly after the morning dismissal. It was a strange and distasteful sight to me. In Virginia most of the burials are on Sunday. The family as well as all dear friends and sisters of the lodges are all dressed in deep mourning. As the casket is slowly brought down the aisle, followed by the long black procession, a wave of depression settles down on me, causing me to ponder over the contradiction and in life everlasting. Where the joy of the songs about the day when we lay our burdens down? Strikes me that this should have been a day of much rejoicing, of loud singing and dancing. If you please, that another soul had been set free of the bondage of earth and earthly things, to sorrow no more. Lillian Fvanti Acclaimed At Naples Naples, Italy, July I—Mme.

Race's Genius, Submission, Resentment Embodied in Robeson's "Othello" HAILS ARTIST AS PROPHET AND FORE-RUNNER Never in history has there been as much world wide comment, pro and con, nor as much unstinted praise of a Negro artist as that aroused by Paul Robeson's portrayal of "Othello" with a white actress playing Desdemona. The well known dramatist and author St. John Arvine, reviewing the life of Mr. Robeson, published as "Paul Robeson: Negro," by Eslanda Goode Robeson, says in part: "He stands for his race. And how well he stands for it. This tall, magnificently-made man with the beautiful singing voice, who is at once a man of distinguished intelligence and a great athlete, is a testimony to the quality that is in the Negro race and s likely, in time, to become cammeron.....His story, as told by his wife, reveals an unaffected man, unspoiled by his popularity and success, and it causes the reader to understand the liking which has been felt for him by a great diversity of persons." Other press comments briefly excerpted by the N. A. A. C. P., are as follows: Manchester Sunday Chronicle: "Here is a vivid, sweeping and, at times, almost awe-inspiring picture of the Moor." Daily Express: "Shakespeare's lines have never been uttered with more force or with a greater sonorousness." Daily Chronicle: "As the tragedy unrolled to its thunderous climax the actor seemed to grow in power with it. In his wrath he was terrific; in his reniorse, most noble." The Times: "Mr. Robeson plays in the grand style those scenes which will yield their full effect to no other style." Daily Telegraph: "Mr. Robeson has a fine presence, a beautiful voice, which gives the poetry its best quality, and conveys the sense of nobility." Morning Advertiser: "The most emphatic personal triumph that Mr. Robeson has won in this country, and that is saying a great deal, was his last evening at the Savoy Theatre, when he made his first appearance as Othello." Manchester Guardian: "That Mr. Robeson is a colored actor is neither here nor there, that he is an actor of immense emotional strength and with a voice of beautiful quality as well as of gigantic volume is what matters." Maitland Davidson reviewing life of Mr. Robeson in Daily Telegraph: "This moving biography seems to sum up all the pathos, all the delightfully child-like humor, the genius and the limitations, the patient submission, and the fierce resentments of the Negro race." Prof. John A. Gray, will conduct summer classes in piano, harmony, solfege and theory, beginning July 1st The speakers who addressed the assembled guests and club were prominent in their several speeches. Mrs. Charlotta A. Bass, managing editor of the California Eagle set the pace and made as it were, the keynote speech of the evening, according to the applause and the comments from those who followed her we are Police Beating of Negroes in Camden New Jersey New York, July 2.—Brutal, beating of several Negroes by police in Camden, New Jersey, is reported to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People by Irving T. Nutt of that city. The trouble originated in the crowding to the curb of an automobile containing three colored men. When they protested to the white woman crowding them, a white police officer had them taken to the police station in a patrol wagon where the colored men were beaten with fists and rubber hose. Mr. Nutt reports: "When all three had been dragged into a cell, the officer went in and beat them up again with the hose. One officer assisted, others had black-jacks. These men were not allowed to communicate with anyone. Monday morning they were haled before the police judge. The officer testified that these men had insulted his wife. The judge asked if they pleaded guilty or not guilty. They said not guilty. The judge then stated that he would teach them to be fresh with women and would fine them $25 and sentence them to thirty days in jail. They were led away to their cells. I might also state the judge used an oath in open court as to these men. After remaining in their cells for a little while, Judge Pancoast remitted their fines and released the men. A colored employee in the City Hall had heard of the events and went to see the judge. "These men are banged up severely. One has been in bed since the affair." The local N. A. A. C. P., has taken up their case. DR. W. ANDERSON IN MINOT. NORTH DAKOTA By Mrs. W. M. Smith Sunday June the 22nd was the Annual Services of the Masons of Minor North Dakota.

THE WORLD'S FIRST WOMEN'S FOUNDATION Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Somerville, Parents of Dr. J. A. Somerville convinced of the fact our managing editor must have made a good speech. Anyhow she told of conditions in former days and noted the sharp improvement of this day and complimented the club on its program for the uplift. Judge Thos. Ambrose, presiding judge of the Los Angeles Municipal Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Somerville, Death of Mr. T. G. Somerville at Smithfield FUNERAL CEREMONY (From a Correspondent) JAMAICA, B. W.-I., June 23— "We are here to-day to lay in its last resting place the body of a truly good and great man. This large congregation of people of all classes and from far and near bear testimony to that. Why have they come to do him this last honour? Because no one has been the worst off, because Thomas Gustavus Somerville lived and everyone who has come in contact with him has been the better for it, however short the intercourse might have been." So spoke the Rev. W. A. Barnes at the burial of the "Grand Old Man" of South Manchester, which took place on Wednesday, May 28th, at St. Luke's Church, Smithfield, the scene of his labours for nigh upon 50 years. Thomas Gustavus Somerville, teacher, preacher, philosopher and friend, was gathered a ripe and mellow fruit by the Grim Reaper in his eighty-first year, full of honour as he was of years, after a long and painful illness which he bore to the last with quiet dignity and Christian fortitude. When a few days before his demise it was known that he was on his last journey, the whole district as it were held its breath and there were those who came to ask his last blessing and none were sent away empty. For some days he had with him his G children who are in Jamaica, Mrs. in Court, spoke on "Municipal Courts and people." Judge Caryl Sheldon, spoke on "Law Enforcement." Judge Wm. Doran, presiding judge Superior Courts spoke on "Judges and Courts." Mr. E. Manchester Boddy, editor of the Daily News, spoke upon, "The , Parents of Dr. J. A. Somerville Josephine Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Somerville and three grandchildren and one great grandson, as also his brother, Rev. J. N. Somerville, the retired rector. His aged wife was with him and ministered to him till the last. THE FUNERAL The funeral was conducted by Rev. W. Burris, assisted by Rev. Charles Swaby of Snowden, Rev. C. M. Buckley of Porus, and Rev. J. M. Somerville, his brother. The funeral was the largest and most impressive seen in this section of the parish by any living witness. Starting from "Little Rest." the home of the deceased, the procession was headed by the clergy robed in a closed car. Next came the bier drawn by two horses which were not driven, but led by two of his boys; then the wife and son of the deceased as chief mourners. Then behind them the rest of the family and behind them 37 other cars and buggies in one long line, slowly moving along. At the woodlands cross roads the boys of the Industrial Home were drawn up as a guard of honour, each bearing a wreath, and they stood at the salute as the bier passed by. A crowd of pedestrains followed and as the cortege moved on this crowd grew till a great concourse was marching—all orderly and well behaved. So great was the crowd waiting at the church that the vehicles had to park in the road. The pall bearers were: Messrs. V. C. Logan of Great Valley. J. Dodd of Glossonby, Teacher Morris of Spauldings, Dr. Lumsden, Mr. Myers of --- Curtis Mosby acted as toastmaster and filled that position in faultless manner. Preceeding and during the banquet Mosby's Blue Blowers and his entertainers put on a very creditable entertainment. The service of the banquet was superb. 4th of July Celebration and Picnic at Val Verde County Park On Friday The annual 4th of July Celebration and Picnic will be held at Val Verde Park July 4th.

Temple, 803 E. 32nd St. HU. 3419 or VA. 1221 QUESTION WEEK I am literally "swamped" with questions, and unless I use two weeks to answer them, many will have to be left unanswered, but I am glad to have the question turned in. It proves to me without doubt that you are truly interested in your own health and health problems and we assure you that we are more than celled to do all within our power to help you. A large proposition of the questions were of such a nature that a private answer was necessary, remember that we are always glad to send a personal answer when self addressed and stamped envelope is enclosed. Question—Rupture— Is it possible for a rupture that has happened in early childhood, between nine and thirteen years to effect the future of the girl's proper development especially in the lower organs, so that she will not mature properly? A severe rupture in certain situations can effect every organ in the pelvis and abdomen both as to growth and development and as to function. Therefore it is possible for such a rupture to prevent proper development of a young woman's organs, and consequently to retard hinder or prevent her natural maturity. Any "rupture" demands a medical examination and proper care for the simple reason that at any moment an untreated rupture or hernia may become strangulated or cut off from the blood supply and thus death may rapidly result due to gangrene. Question—Taking Douches— How often should a woman take a douche? Are they harmful or healthful? The matter of taking douches is a serious one. No Woman should under any circumstances take a douche of any kind unless approved by an intelligent physician. Douches and douche taking may be very harmful, and when strong medicines such as lysol are used, they often do terrible damage. Consult your doctor if you feel that it is necessary for you to take a douche at anytime for any cause. Question—Cancer— Does Cancer come on all of the body or just on certain parts. Answer— Practically any part of the body may be attacked by the dreaded disease, Cancer. But certain parts are especially prone to its selection. The mouth the stomach the breast and the generative organs of women are all frequent cites of cancer. Remember that cancer begins small and at 1st is entirely a local condition. Removing of the small aary effected "cures" the early cancer. But if neglected the cancer cells travel through the circulating system all through the body and then no method is known which can "cure" it. Therefore remember the frequent examination to detect the very beginning of cancer. DePRIEST URGES FEDERAL EMPLOYES TO ORGANIZE (BY: A. N. P.) Washington, D. C., July 2.—Speaking before a meeting of federal workers here at the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A., building, Congressman Oscar DePriest of Illinois, urged the workers to effect an organization through which their welfare might be looked after and the economic welfare promoted. The Congressman declared that there should be a better working agreement between the heads of departments and the colored employees and decried any discrimination whatever, at the same time pointing out that the colored employees must prove worthy of their positions.

We PATRIOTISM One hundred and fifty-four years ago, July 4, 1776 to be exact, America decided for independence and in support of her contention the Declaration of Independence was adopted and signed. The old instrument has weathered the storm of time pretty well considering the unlawful violation of many of its articles by a criminal element supported by cowards acting as governors who permit hoodlums to besmirch Old Glory and retard international good will, because foreign nations are not willing to accept the hand of friendship from America dripping in blood fresh from the lynching and burning at the stake of innocent women and men, offsprings of those who have died upon the blood-soaked battlefields, filled with patriotism not for a lost cause but a cause whose success is being hampered and retarded by white America. SOCIAL Mr. Albert Logan, a Southern Pacific railroad representative and wife, arrived in Los Angeles Friday. He returned Sunday wife to his home in Sacramento. HIs wife is Elsinore bound for a two or three weeks' visit. ECONOMICS If talk will solve a problem then after the public meeting last Monday nite at Jefferson why there should be no economic problem of our group. There was one grand conglamoration of speech-making in which the Mayor and other representative citizens succeeded in theoretically solving this much mooted question. Looks like the fellow that owns three big meat markets on the avenue, controls a weekly periodical, and boasts that he don't have to employ any Negroes despite the fact that 80 per cent of his customers are Negroes is going to have to do one of the two things—either change his tune or else quit selling meat. We heard Mentis Career Mondaying and he was great. We listened to Dr. Hudson for three minutes and as usual he said something. E. C Jennings and Mayor Porter indulged in a political debate to our delight which involved the subject, "Courage" the result of which was the clearing of the atmosphere a bit about swimming pools, and the letting of contracts by the Board of Public Works. Hugh Macbeth has us guessing for a second when he spoke but he quickly located his bearing and exposed his position when he handed the Honorable Mayor a political life evening and he was great. We listened preserver. But say now listen; I'm not johning, Nickerson, of the Golden State made a fine talk; Jones and Bloedget of the Liberty and Clark and Carrot of Unity were absent. We're sorry for that boy, Snell, said something. He said a mouthful concerning what was needed to help the economic status of the Negro. Of course we can't repeat it but whenever you hear the subject economic or fect-finding meetings going to be held, load up Henry with gas or Maud with hay and tear out; especially if Snell with his 300 pounds is Pasadena Section The Inter-Racial Forum will meet in the Pasadena public library Sunday afternoon from 2:30 to 5. Mr. Lew Head will be the main speaker. A special musical program will be rendered. Deaths— Mr. J. W. Lewis of 370 N. Vernon died Monday after a long seige of illness. Miss Myrel Holland is much better * * * N. A. A. C. P. Common Justice and Equality of Opportunity for the Negro are as Essential for White America as for Black America The N. A. A. C. P. processes on the reasonable assumption that the documents upon which the world's greatest experiment in human freedom is based are to be taken literally and exactly at their face value. Major Achievements 1. Residential Segregation ordinance passed in Lousville, Ky., was declared unconstitutional by unanimous decision of the United States Supreme Court November 5, 1917, the case having been conducted for the N. A. A. C. P. by its president, Moorfield Storey. Louisiana Segregation case won before U. S. Supreme Court in 1927. On basis of Louisville decision of 1917, segregation by ordinance has been defeated in Louisiana; Dallas, Texas; Indianapolis; and Norfolk, Va. 2. When the Grandfather Clauses in state constitutions disfranchising Negroes came before the United States Supreme Court and were declared unconstitutional, in 1915, the only brief filed by any private individual or organization was submitted for the N. A. C. P. by Moorfield Storey. 3. Against Peonage the N. A. A. C. P. fought more than 4-years ago spending $15,000, saved the lives of 12 men sentenced to death in connection with the Arkansas riots of 1919. The United States Supreme Court reversed convictions of 6 of the men after argument for them by Mr. Storey. The other six were liberated by decision of BEAT HARD TIMES If money isn't coming in you like it formerly did and you find yourself in a serious tight. Get in touch with us immediately and allow us to put a thousand and fifteen hundred dollar loan on your home or a piece of your other property. It won't come due at a certain date like those old time mortgages dig, but can be paid out as you like with interest at seven per cent. This loan should tide you over to better times, without necessating your sacrificing your pride and independence. Now if on the other hand you have a surplus of a few hundred dollars we can take just three or four hundred of it and invest it in a lovely home for you while property is down, and before it shoots up again. It will be wonderful to be able to tell your friends how you made a handsome figure on an initial investment of only a few hundred. Others have—Why not you? The WALTER L.

You cannot imagine how happy I am to know that the people of Los Angeles think so much of my work that they are going to help me realize my dreams of over 20-years. I invite all my friends and well wishers to be present to witness the work of my pupils and assistant teachers Tuesday evening, July 15th, at St. Paul Baptist Church. We want this to be the best and most largely attended recital during our past 17-years of success. In appreciation of what the citizens are going to do for me, I intend to do something in return. I will hold it as a surprise and tell you all about it the night of the recital. Thanking you again for helping to make my dreams come true.

Motion picture choruses have been invited, also an interesting chorus contest is, planned with the musical directors, technicians and critics from leading picture studios as judges. The chorus of one thousand being built from the Junior N. A. A. C. P., sponsored by the Citizens' Committee, is to be a permanent organization known as N. A. A. C.

Mentis Careere and Hugh Gordon are to be congratulated upon the successful manner in which they gained the attention of the people and had such a magnificent gathering to greet Mayor Porter on last Monday evening. Hard work and the liberal use of printer's ink brought this situation to pass and let us hope it set the people to thinking along the line that "God helps those who help themselves." For when you can get people to think you will soon get somewhere. Dr. H. D. Prowd presided at Monday night's meeting. The Mayor made a very telling speech, each word was priceless in value if acted upon. It is to be hoped the various meetings all looking to the same end will go forth as never before until a final solution is arrived at for the solution of the problem of economic independence.

Every Make and Type. 3 Days' Trial and Written Guarantee with Every Car S. A. SCHERER 9 YEARS OF PUBLIC CONFIDENCE HOOTS OF THE OWL By THOMAS ROWLETT That Governor Dan Moody, of Texas was a little hasty in sending his goodwill Ambassador to Europe to explain to them, about the lynchings that had taken place at Sherman, Texas a few weeks ago, is evident by the fact of his latest report, which states that there was another lynching at Beaumont, Texas. You know these here lynchings are getting just about as popular as the endurance flights, and marathons. Mud slinging and character smashing has started once again, as the gubernational campaign is swinging into full bloom. That it will help all unbeliever of the Bible to look askance at one another is assured, wherein the prophecy of "The lion, and the lamb shall he down together before the end of time." is being literally fulfilled, in that a Negro will run for governor. (In case he is nominated and in the State of Georgia.) In Texas it's the other way around. The Negro had better run FROM everything that looks like a governor, as what that executive cares about him is nothing. J. W. Coleman Facing Loss of Employment Agency According to the ruling of the State Labor Department, J. W. Coleman, pioneer citizen and veteran employment agent, must pay into said Labor Department by Monday, July 7th, $600.00 or have his license revoked and possibly go to jail. The whole affair is the result of illness which overtook Coleman some weeks ago when he was compelled to let someone go into his office or close up. Technical law violations when he was ill is responsible for his plight just now. This publication and no doubt many others believe J. W. Coleman has been a bene factor, especially for the colored workers in California. He has a record of more than 50 years standing without a blemish or ever being cited before the Labor Commissioner an unrelentely there is a screw loose somewhere when he is not given a break in this instance, when he was sick and the expectations were he would pass out. He is inexperienced and we really think he should receive every consideration of the hands of his friends to see to it that the Employment Agency will carry on. Coleman has placed more than 111,000 of our people to work through his agency. He has helped every progressive movement which the citizens have ever brought forward. Now in his present situation, he would appreciate any aid or assistance. Those interested call at the office of Attorney Afue McDowell, Ninth and Central avenue. CALIFORNIA FEDERATION OF COLORED WOMEN'S CLUBS STANDS PAT FOR LOY- ALTY AND JUSTICE By Mary E. Reed The California Federation of Colored Women's Clubs has just closed its Convention in Oakland. Mrs. Elizabeth Edwards one of the most loyal, noble, bighearted, hard-worked and deserving woman of the Federation was elected State President.

Congratulations to the California Federation of Colored Women's Clubs who do not bend their knees to Baal. Mrs. Edwards arrived home Monday morning at 8:30 A.

PENDENCE do son as moth and ass eral ho twin ba The yellow sunshine lingered on Point Loma below which lay a beautiful villa basking in the pleasantness of eternal spring. The whole situation was in a setting of peace, contentment, and prosperity, Julia had finished cooking dinner and was ready to serve. "Dinner is ready," said she to the mistress of the house, and the members of the family were soon seated around the table. "The tea-cakes are a little bit scorched, Julia. What was the trouble?" To this question Julia replied in furry: "If my cooking doesn't suit you, you can just give me my money and get yourself another woman to cook. That's what's the matter with my race now; they let you white folks run over them. I'll never do it." "Well, if that's the way you feel about it, I'll have to get me another cook." said the mistress. "Yes, that's what you'll have to do, and I don't mean a durning indifferent." replied Julia. Soon the incident had passed, the shades of night had fallen upon the fair landscape, and sleep held all in its fond embrace. The morning cometh." Julia, how are you getting along with breakfast?" asked the mistress. "I done told you you'd have to get another woman to cook; I'm goin' to town this mornin'. You give me my money." "Why, Julia, I thought you had forgotten that little trouble last night. Go on and get breakfast; I didn't mean to insult you when I spoke to you about the tea-cakes, and I beg your pardon if I hurt your feelings." But "oman, you done made me mad. I'll quit anybody that makes me mad. You give me my money. I'm goin' to Los Angeles this mornin'." "Well, said the mistress, if you will have it that way, here's the seventy-five dollars for your month's work." Some weeks pass, and both the scene and the temper pass with them. The wolf of want howls in Julia's face. She appears in calm and sober mood at the counter of an employment office. "Mister, I want to make application for a job." "All right, what can you do?" "I can do cooking and general house work." "Well, I'll tell you in advance, work is rather hard to get now." "But, Mister, I've got to have something to do.

"Prepare to meet thy God." The popular topic "the Trend of the Youth of Today" has been discussed in terms favorable to the moderns, but for the most part, very unfavorable. When we took at the subject in an impartial way, the virtues of the young stand out unmiss, takably. However, it is a sufficient cue for a jubilant celebration among the youngsters when a real friend among the older generation takes up their fight. day was another happy day at St. Paul, Pastor Williams preached out of the fulness of his heart, at 11 a. m. "Lifting Up Christ", 8 p. m. "Christ the chief attraction in Heaven". As he preached and reasoned with his hearers, blessings Rev. Moore really a champion of the younger generation. So thorough did he discuss the subject in his semion on the fourth Sunday that it present were forced to think seriously. What were you doing at the age of 18 or 19? Were you any better than the young man or woman of today? Are you criticizing the young people because you have reached the age where you are unfit for anything but to find fault? Were you good when you had the choice; when you were strong when the example which you set meant something to the world? These are some of the questions put to the reformers by Rev. Moore. Not giving any license to the youth of today nor supporting them in actions which are indiscreet. Rev. Moore created a more sympathetic attitude toward the youth of today. A marvelous foundation for this timely sermon was laid the Sunday reserved for young people when a group of young men and women from the First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood appeared at the morning services. Bubbling over with enthusiasm and harmony, these young people thrilled the audience with songs, instrumental solos and a quartette sang in perfect harmony. Mr. Sam Merritt, finished this program with an excellent and sincere sermon. These came in mighty power, and one man and young woman were happily converted after shouts of joy and songs of praise they were received as candidates for Baptism, and buried in the liquid grave at the nights service. It is marvelous to see the spirituals change in and around St. Paul if you would seek Jesus or have your spiritual strength renewed, if you care to worship in the good old fashioned way. Come! Come!! Come!!! to St. Paul. Many Visitors in attendance at each Service. Welcome. Lincoln Memorial Congregational Church REV. E. E.

A CARD OF THANKS I take this method to express my appreciation of the generous hospitality shown me by the Associations, Churches and Ministers Union as well as the Interdenominational Alliance of the City. With kindly remembrance of the open heartedness of the Pastor and members of St. Paul Church where the good blood meeting was held, I consider it the greatest ovation ever extended an humble servant who had done his duty. It is grateful for one to hear his past reviewed by those who know, when it is shown that his acts and contributions redoubled to the good of all. But how much more would one be able to do if they could hear these things while they have chance to improve. My Thirteen years as pastor in this city and almost as many years leader of the denomination in the state gives me happy reflection when I know the sermons I received is evidence of a battle I am happy that even now I have let no closed gate to the fields of my activity.

Mr Carter is a real go-getter who realizes that success only comes by hard consistent work. OPPORTUNITIES FOR OTHERS In addition to the financial opportunities offered, the Golden State offers to ambitious men and women of good character an opportunity to engage in an honorable business that renders a much needed service to the people, the community and the race. The Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company in its rapid program of expansion has several openings for men and women who, having the proper educational foundation, are willing to learn Insurance salesmanship and inquisitively apply themselves to its field of activity. There are many people who being regularly employed otherwise, have several hours of leisure during the day and who desire to employ those hours to advantage. It has been said, and with great truth, that there are as many dollars to be earned in the time that we waste as in that which is used. Life Insurance will provoke an income and in addition thereto, will give one ample opportunity for self-expression, broadening of character, and the full use of the often neglected human element—Initiative.

FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1930 A GLIMPSE POLITICA MEANING —By— CORINNE BETTIS CANDIDATES FOR THE SENATE Under the new law only one man will be sent to the state Senate from each County. We must decide between these two splenoid characters. Charles W. Lyon' (incumbent senator) has served this county sixteen years and has an enviable record. Senator Lyon at this time is waging a campaign under great difficulties. He has at his home a very sick wife who has just undergone a serious major operation. He is not well himself and is almost on the verge of a physical collapse. We are hoping his responsibilities will soon be lightened and he will be able to carry on his campaign. During the past sixteen years Mr. Lyon has made an enviable record and has a large constituency. Senator McKinley is another outstanding candidate and is also incumbent. Mr. McKinley has attracted much attention by his ability and courage. He has opened headquarters at 15 Haas Building and will wage an active campaign, based on his voting record in the senate and on his personal qualifications. The Senatorial campaign sifts down to these two candidates. Where is our friend the Golden Rule Judge? We are hoping he will very soon find time to contact us through the medium of the papers or personally. We reier to Superior Judge Hugh J. Crawford. Mr. La Plante has started his campaign for Assessor and seems to be gaining some ground. He is at least making himself conspicuous by attending the various meetings. The incumbent Assessor, Edward W. Hopkins has been a very busy man and when interviewed by this writer, this week said he hoped to be with us personally in some of the campaign meetings of the future and to renew his friendship and acquaintances. A group of ladies assembled at the Cafeteria of the Y. M. C. A. A last Thursday at noon and formed a Guerin for Judge committee of which Mrs. A. E. Walker was elected president. The group of ladies were addressed by Judge Guerin's campaign manager and Mrs. Walker. A very dainty luncheon was served and the meeting adjourned to meet at the call of the president. Much enthusiasm was manifested. The future of the campaign of Judge Guerin looked very bright. A most interesting programme will be rendered at Sycamore Grove and at Val Verde. Friday, July 4th. Candidates will speak at both gatherings. The feature of the programme will be the political debate by Mts. C. A. Bass and Rev Wade. Judge Eugene Jennings is gaining ground slowly but surely and is very optimistic as to the outcome of the election. THE LIFE STORY OF ODA FAILURE CONTAINED FAULCONER CONTINUED Mrs. Faulconer's decision to seek a place on the Superior Court cannot be considered as the blossoming forth of a private ambition. As one of the most prominent professional, business and club women in the state, she is so truly representative of a group of women that what she does in a public way must be taken as an expression of the wishes of the allied women back of her. California is one of the few states in which the judge of a Superior Court where a divorce case is being tried has complete authority over the disposition of the children. If unwisely met, this situation can work much havoc and is one of the main reasons why Mrs. Faulconer consented to become a candidate. The welfare of children touches her deeply, for the best of life is founded in the home. And her political platform is to protect children's homes. She is a 'dry' and believes in law enforcement. Does not have much patience with legal quibbles used for the purpose of delay. Believes in simply living and speeding up cases where ever possible. In fact, her house-wifely hands itch to sweep away a lot of foolish precedent and time wasting notions. In the late afternoon the big car again turned through the open gate to take me to the station. The wide tires set puddles splashing recklessly as we drove along. Then far down the road we saw a small figure—a little Mexican boy trudging along the wet street toward us, carrying a damp, disconsolate puppy in his arms. The big car slowed down and swerved to the far side of the highway, and as we drew near the tiny brown face broke into a delighted --- If You Fail To Read—THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE—You May Never Know It Happened PETER damp tail wagged a wet greeting, for it was the beloved "Manma Oda" that every child in San Fernando knew. As we passed I asked, "Why did you draw over so far? He seemed quite a winning little bandit." "He is," she answered. "But I didn't want to splash his overalls. He'll have to wear them to school tomorrow and his mother likes to have him clean." That is the woman. The common things of everyday mean the most to her. The foundation of her life is laid in love and service, and the structure she isearing on that foundation will touch the stars. SENATOR McKINLEY ENDORS ED BY PROMINENT CITIZENS Senator McKinley is 39 years old and a member of one of the oldest families in Southern California. His father was the late Judge J. W. McKinley, and the McKinley family has always been Republican and the senator is recognized as a Republican leader in the state. Among the list of sponsors, who signed Senator McKinley's petition are some of the best known men and women of the community. Louis W. Myers, former Chief Justice of the State Supreme Court, heads the list. Others are: John Robert White Jr., Sarah E. Kellogg, Dora A. Stearns, P. W. E. Riuenour Henry O. Wheeler, W. L.

I am exerting my every effort to help promote the election of Mr. Fitts for governor. The rumor is abroad that I have gone for Rolph. Again may I state I am for Fitts 100 per cent. ATTORNEY JENNINGS AND THE VALENTINE CASE (By Atty. C. H. ALSTON) Ten years ago, or to be more exact May 30, 1920, Mr. Arthur Valentine an old and respected citizen of this city, Mr. Horace Walker and two other colored citizens, were criminally assaulted at the Beach by Deputy Sheriffs Cooper and DeWar. They were brutally beaten up, although not only had they committed no crimes but they were conducting themselves in an inoffensive manner. So revolting and reprehensible was this affair that the entire colored citizenry were up in arms. At first it seemed absolutely impossible to secure indictments against these culprits, but so determined and relentless was Atty. Jennings in his effort that he eventually had them indicted, although it took a continual fight from June to November of that year. While the Forum and the N. A. A. C. P. paid the costs in the case, yet the handling of the case was conducted by Atty Jennings without charges. This act alone has won for Atty Jennings unstinted praise and a lasting place in the hearts of the Colored citizens of Los Angeles. And now the opportunity comes to us to repay him for his unselfish interest and whole-hearted devotion in securing justice for his people. We therefore respectfully commend him to you for your support as a candidate for judge of the Superior Court in the August Primaries. We are going to take the liberty to put these words in his mouth: "Let me live in the house by the side of the road, Where the races of men go by; The men who are good and the men who are bad. As good and as bad as I. I would not sit in the scorner's seat, Or hurl the cynic's ban; Let me live in my house by the side of the road, And be a friend of man." ```markdown ``` BURON FITTS DELIVERS ADDRESS Republican Candidate For Governor States Principles For Which He Contends Speech Made Before The Southern California Women's Division Of The "Fitts-For-Governor" Campaign Organization At The Figueroa Playhouse On Monday, June 30, 1930 You are here to learn from me some of the reasons for my candidacy for the Republican nomination for Governor. There was a time, not so very long ago, when the average seeker for public office felt that he could safely indulge in generalities, in scatter-gun criticism and glowing promises, and that this type of campaign was satisfactory and sufficient. Such a campaign no longer carries success with it, and particularly is it a losing proposition with the women voters. From my own experience and from my observation of the experience of others I should say that women who take an interest in government and in civic affair are less susceptible to campaign cajolery, political insincerities and impossible promises than men. This may be the result of a more suspicious attitude, but I think it is due to the fact that women are inclined to demand explanations rather than excuses from those asking for political support and, hence, you will hear from me today in as direct a manner as possible what I am asking to accomplish in my candidacy for the Governorship. Sometimes I—think it would be a healthy thing if a campaign for any important office should cover a much longer period than now is customary, and this for the very good reason that the crowded two or three months allotted to the wind-up of the ordinary political contest is as apt to confuse and mislead the voters as to leave a genuine and reliable impression of the actual election issues. In this campaign for the Republican nomination for Governor for instance we are to some extent handicapped in our judgment by the extremely clever manner in which the managers of the incumbent candidate have worked up the case, so to speak, for the State administration. There is so much talk about the tremendous benefits conferred on the populace of California by the Young administration. so much recitation of figures and statistics, so many references to unprecedented contributions to human welfare by the incumbent Governor, that one might be disposed to accept all these things at their face value if it were not for the fact that such glowing and self-laudatory assertion come almost exclusively from the Governor himself or from his appointees. I need not pay to you here that my impersonal. It is the record of a public officer, not the personality of a very pleasant gentleman, that I am discussing The Governor, or any public officer, must be judged by his accomplishment or the absence of accomplishment in public, office and judged by the facts, not by his own, perhaps)entirely sincere, estimate of his service. The present State administration at Sacramento is completing a term of four years. Speaking for itself, the administration refers to these four years with unbounded pride. But I say to you that if you were to make the same careful investigation of State affairs that I have made, you would find very little basis for the boastful attitude of the administration's spokesmen. During the four years now coming to a close those in authority at Sacramento have had hundreds of millions of dollars of public money to expend in the interests of the people of this State. No administration in the history of California has had as much or spent as much. I will say this, admit this, if you like, that neither California nor any other State could hope for more energy or activity from its state authorities than we have had from gums during the last eight or ten months. But genuinely efficient government does not wait for an election year, for a re-election campaign, before it begins its highest activity of service. We must have good government during the first year, and the second and third year, as well as the fourth year, if the people are to receive from government what is legitimately the people's cure. It would appear that the Young administration market time, hesitated and exercised considerable skill in holding up government activity for three years in order to come forth in a burst of energy during the closing months in the 1939 campaign. So many roads are now being built that detour signs are stuck up all over the State. Commissions that have been in existence for years or many months, mysteriously doing nothing, now spring up before the public with glowing accounts of "progress" or with inspiring plans for improvements. It is a harsh charge to make, but I believe investigation of the facts will convince you as it has me, that many urgently needed public betterments have been deliberately delayed by the present administration until this supposedly opportune hour. Furthermore, you will readily understand that many of the more important contributions to public welfare, such as appropriations for our schools, for highways, for various human welfare agencies, are due to the expressed will of the people themselves, at the ballot box, and do not come from the initiative or vision or dutiful energy of any official of government. The administration at Sacramento has been lacking in initiative and leadership. It has left a wide gap between real real service and its claim to service. Much of the administration's statistical data is downright misleading. Some of it obviously is put before the public to hide real conditions. The facts are that more money in taxes has been collected than ever before. That more money has been spent. That the cost of government has increased many times faster than the population increase and faster than the increase in the wealth of the State or our assessed valuations. The people of California would not complain if the State government gave greater value in exchange for this greater drain upon the people's resources, but this value cannot be demonstrated. The great surplus in the general fund inherited by the Young administration has been largely dissipated, and in its stead is a conglomeration of funds poured temporarily into the general fund to give the impression of a large surplus. Here are some figures: The total funds available to the Young administration for expenditure during the two biennials of its existence, and be assured the money has been or will be spent come to $461,462,526. Almost a half billion dollars, and this represents an increase of $138,716,552 over the expenditures of the preceding administration. In five years the cost of State government in California has increased seventy-one percent. Study that percentage as it relates to property values to the wages of labor, to the aggregate income of the people, and you will understand the danger of permitting this spending orgy to continue. Their great surplus in the general fund which the Young administration mentions with such confidence is considerably a myth, because large items in this fund have been transferred from other funds to which they must be returned and because many other items are merely unexpended monies destined for disbursement during the fiscal year. Also, many financial items listed by the Young administration are nothing more than estimates, although the intention apparently has been to convey an impression to the public that they represent accomplished facts. I want to ask those present if any one of you during the last four years except upon your personal initiative has learned anything definite about the credentials of State finances, of any State administration policy as to economy or efficiency, of our alarmingly increasing bonded indebtedness. Bonds must be voted for needed public improvements, but intelligence must be used in submitting them to the public and in granting to them public support. The figures themselves form the strongest argument for caution. Nineteen years ago the bonded indebtedness of State and local governments in California was $94,000,000. Now it approximates $800,000,000. The public officer who uses as an excuse for, excessive expenditures the fact that the people "voted the money," or, at least, did not unduly complain when the money was spent, is not doing his duty. It is, as I see it, a basic requirement of public service that an official charged with administrative duties shall take the initiative in developing among the people themselves, as well as among government officers, a true sense of public economy. It is not only the duty, but should be the definite object of any conscientious administrator to search for ways and means to reduce government costs and to have such reductions reflected in a direct saving to the payer of taxes. This duty is too frequently neglected by those in office and never mor the h than when a surplus develops. Then, instead of looking for places to save money, the custom has been to find new places for spending. If the people were more watchful and better informed. I can assure you that many, many millions of dollars appropriated and expended not only by the State administration during the last three and half years, but by other public bodies, would remain in the pockets of our citizens. Governor's cabinets, if organized for hard work and definite working purposes, are good things, but when they come tardily into existence and are held under the clicking camras of newspaper photographers, with State officials making speeches to each other and congratulating themselves upon their great wisdom and success, they appear more in the light of campaign publicity stunts than of needed adjuncts of government. We need more real and less ostentatious attentions to affairs of the State. We need an initiative and a leadership responsive to the people and not dominated by a left-over political machine. We need honest attention to our problems of education; to the just needs of our teachers for an adequate retirement salary. I want to say right here that I favor the best retirement salary schedule for California teachers that can be obtained. Such a schedule will represent fairness both to the taxpayer and to the teacher and it can be brought by sinere co-operation between the teachers' representatives, and the officers of government. Taking care of our public school teachers is one of the best forms of youth-insurance in which we can invest. Also I want to mention a matter here that has very direct bearing on what I have said as to the tendency of the Young administration to procrastinate, to put things off, to stall along until election time. I refer to the Mooney case. Gov. Young has been in office almost four years. The Mooney case was a burning issue when he was elected. It is a fact that many of Mooney's friends thought they had grounds for expecting action from Gov. Young on this question within a comparatively short time after his election. The Mooney case has required executive action for more than three years. Not the kind of action such as the administration accomplished in having the Supreme Court made a body of review. Disposition of the Mooney case and of similar cases is a responsibility of the Governor of California, not to be shirked or shifted. Now, whatever action is taken on the Mooney case by Gov. Young in the eleventh hour of his administration will be a political action. A selfish political action in which the guilt or innocence and the liberty of a human being will be a political pawn. You can rely upon this, and so can those who believe Mooney guilty and the others who feel that he is the victim of a gross miscarriage of justice, that Tom Mooney will know from me, if I am elected. Governor, just what he is to expect from the executive office. That he will know the action of the executive committee within a period not to exceed six months after I am elected. That he will know, so far as the governor is concerned, whether he is to go free under executive pardon or to remain imprisoned for the crime with which he is charged. I am coming before you in the hope that you will give me, through your support and your votes, an opportunity to serve you. I shall make no promise that I do not intend to carry out, and such promises as I do make shall be to the people and not to individuals. I shall if elected, work honestly and energetically for the good of the entire state. I am a Republican and I bespeak your active co-operation in upbuilding a Republican party in California that will carry out the highest ideals and principles of that party. I am opposed to nonpartisanism in state and national affairs and believe that party responsibility, when based on an intelligent and alert membership, is a real guaranteed against political bossism and the dangers and evils of political machines. I think my law enforcement record speaks for itself with respect to any policy I might have on the subject as governor of California. There will be no weakening of the law enforcing machinery of the state if I am elected. And that, of course, applies to laws in controversy such as the Eighteenth amendment, as to others more generally accepted by all branches of the populace. While I have no sense of judicialism as it might apply to the functions of the governor's office, I seek that Southern California is entitled to a greater degree of understanding of its peculiar problems than it has received from the present administration. Less flattery on the eye of election and more solid contributions to its primary needs is the sole desire of the people of this sect. If it were not so important to So California it might be regarded as ridiculous that this part of the state, paying more than 50 per cent of the taxes and having more than 50 per cent of the population should received only a little more than 30 per cent of the state appropriation. No section of California can prosper by exploiting any other section, and in asking for our just and proper share of government attention we are merely seeking what is logically coming to us. You need not feel that the bulk of opinion in northern California is opposed to this. On the contrary I have found, everywhere in the northern section of the state a definite feeling that Southern California is entitled to and should have greater recognition in state government. My appeal for your support is not based on geographical residence or sectional interest; however, as, if elected, I shall to the best of my ability try to serve the whole people.

Mr. Fitts’ openmindneés, the vigor- ous and thoughtful manner in which he established the District Attorney's “of- fice, the impartiality with whichohe elected one of our group from he Civil Service list for appointment of Deputy in his office, together with the fact that he is a Southern California man, are all inspiring thoughtful voters to his cause. In fact, the people are wanting something done, and wanting recogni- tion of a more meritorious nature than has been heretofore accredited them. Over two thousand members are enroll. ed in the -organization's gubernatorial» fight for Buron Fitts for Governor.

T. A., at Indianapolis in Angust. The names of Stocks, of California, Saith and Thompson’ of new York, Graham of Cleveland, and Edgar Brown, the present Nationa! ‘Champion of Chicago, all bring thrill- ing memories to those who attended the annual event in past two years. Despite the unexpected and decisive defeat of Stocks by Brown in the finals last year, the opinion of many is that the youthful fast-coming lad from California ‘will batter down and drive his way to, the coveted cham- pionship in August. TED THOMPSON FEARED ‘There is always to be feared the sparkling and determined games of Ted Thompson and Eyre Saith. In fact, -the-play-at Bordentown ju 1929. revealed so many contenders of real! championship calibre that this sea- son’s session is bound to provide an unset of the dope bucket regardless of how it turns ont. PUBLIC ANXIOUSLY AWAITS | EVENT 1 The public anticipates eagerly the appearance of two sterling compet}- tors who ‘were absent last year. One | 1s Douglass Turner. Ilinois, who was runner-up for Big Ten Championship. The other is Reginald: Weir, New York City, who thas improved an al- ready splendid game by intensive stndy and play during his stay in Paris last year. All in all, this writer finds a very interesting analogy in the A. T. A. ‘with Edgar Brown, to the situation with the veteran Tilden in the 1. S, L. T. T. A. Both are still answering the challenge of youth. No other event has assembled such a gallery of charming people from all over he nation as have the champion- ship of the A. T. A. in the past few seasons. HELD AT CROSS ROADS OF NATION Indianapolis bids fair to attract moré tennis fans to this tournament than any other city selected thus far. due to its more central location at the cross roads of the nation, and be- cause of this feature the Indianapolis.
