JESUS SAID UNTO HIM. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.—Matthew 22:27-40.
POLICE OFFICER ATTACKS
FITT'S SPEAKER
FOURTH OF JULY afternoon at Sycamore Grove, where more than a thousand people representing the Kansas and Georgia clubs and one of the Masonic orders, were assembled; one of the largest political meetings of the campaign season was held.
There were politicians from all ranks and the political welkin rang to all corners of the park and anxious hearers stood forming human clumps listening patiently to the words of truth and alike falsehood that fell from the lips of those who represented themselves and those who spoke for the different gubernatorial candidates. All went well until the writer of this column appeared in the role of Fittsor-Governor, whereupon Park Police Officer No. 774 rushed upon the rostrum and announced that there could be no political speeches made.
It is not our intention to accuse anyone but on the surface, it looks like most any sort of political tactics will be resorted to in this campaign. The Young Machine is determined to roll the present governor back on the throne for the next four years, if need be bones will have to be crushed, skulls cracked, characters assassinated, whatever it takes to land him safely back in the fold; while the Rolph constituency, mostly wet, is declaring that with Mayor Rolph in the governor's seat, prosperity will be dripping. But we declare unto you, brethren, at this time that in spite of the latest report, there is no money in the Fitts campaign—money or no money, the people who stand for clean government and fair play will elect Buron Fitts next governor of California, and we believe that they are in the majority.
Des Moines, Ia., Friday, July 4—A hefty slap on the jaw, delivered by a robust and stout-hearted sheriff broke up an embryo lynching party here early Sunday.
The wallop was landed by Sheriff W. W. Covington on a sailor who had appointed himself leader of about forty men, remnant of a mob of 200 which had milled about the Jefferson County jail during the early hours of its midsummer. The blow sent the sailor and his "mobmen" retreating in confusion, abandoning their attempt to remove from the jail a Negro accused of attacking a white woman.
Best results are obtained by a single aim. Sheriff Covington aimed his fist at the jaw of this sailor who had placed himself at the head of the mob that sallied forth on July 4th intent upon writing a shame page in the history of Iowa. As has often been said, those individuals who make up the mob are cowards personified, and the Negroes who are subjected to this mob rule as the result of geographical location should band themselves together in a bloodless army of resistance with the determination that they will blot out mob rule from the pages of history in the United States, even though some of them must die martyrs for the cause of real and lasting freedom. This Iowa sheriff in this act of dispersing the mob has put to shame some of our governors, sheriffs, mayors and even state militias, for with his naked fist he sent two hundred blood-thirsty cowards, whose only claim on American citizenship is a puny, sickly argument, "We are white," skulking into seclusion!
If the Republican party hopes to continue to hold claim on the Negro vote it must exercise its good offices to stop lynching. The record sent out for the first six months of 1930 by

POURS HOT SHOT AS ROLPH
FORCES GO TO COVER
In answer to a letter written and published in the California Eagle" of Los Angeles by Mr. B. L. Tyrrell. 558 Chenery Street, San Francisco, and addressed to Rev. J. H. Wilson Los Angeles, California.
In order that you may be properly informed, Mr. Tyrell is an employee of the Board of Public Works, a messenger therein, and has been such for the past twenty years. Rev. Wilson is reported to be the political organizer of Mayor Rolph for the State of California a Presiding Elder in the Southern district of this state, and publisher of the "Church Organ" of the A. M. E. Church and Grand Master of the Masonic Fraternity of the Jurisdiction of California. Mr. Terrell being a civil service employee is under the jurisdiction of candidate, Rolph's Board of Public Works. So much for the back ground, now for the picture. I am going to tell the truth about Mayor Rolph and the Negroes who live in San Francisco.
Mayor Rolph was elected to that office eighteen years ago having defeated a Union Labor candidate, the Hon. P. H. McCarthy. Upon entering office, the Mayor found among the employees of the City under Civil Service. Mr. B. L. Tyrrell, who had been in the service for over twelve years at that time. Another so employed, was a man by the name of William Anderson, a Deputy in the Assessor's office, (appointed by the late Washington Dodge, the then Assessor and a close personal friend of Anderson.) a non-civil service position; (Continued on Page Seven)
Louie Armstrong Famed Record Artist in City
To lovers of music the name of Lonie Armstrong is so familiar that the news of his arrival in the city Wednesday morning at nine o'clock will arouse great interest.
This famous cornetist and leader of his hot fire who has made many victoria records is here to open at Sebastian's Cotton Club with Broomfield and Greeley's great floor show. He is also to make a big picture at a leading studio.
Mr. Armstrong was accompanied by his wife who, by the way, is an accomplished pianist.
"DON'T ARREST 'EM WE'LL GET 'EM" SWEAR KNIFE VICTIMS
Although so dangerously cut and slashed that at first they were thought fatally injured. Willie Shields. 960 E. 11th street and Alex Tucker. 3210 Compton. told detectives Broady and Slajer that they would not reveal the names of their assailants or prosecute them.
In true Chicago gang war style they swore from their beds where they are slowly recovering that they would "get their men." he (the o...cer) could 'hands off.'
The near tragedy which promises (Continued on Page Two)
If Not Fitts—Who?
Rolph forces have clearly demonstrated they have no ground to stand on when asking the support of the Colored Voters. Try as they may they cannot explain away the reason for Mayor Rolph's failure to give recognition to all of the people in his 18 years as an occupant of the major office in San Francisco. Even his Negro preachers who are prancing about upon the platform misforming those who they can get to listen to them, have nothing to talk about and they go forth talking nonsense and preaching hate and prejudice, thereby reflecting not alone upon their calling but upon the race which they are identified with forever.
Every tub must stand on its own bottom in this campaign and if the Rolph forces must know it they will sooner or later go on the rocks if they persist in the present guerilla warfare they are trying to put over. The people want facts, not hog wash; for every falsehood will be met with the truth and only the truth will be able to stand. IF NOT FIXED, WHOM?
Rev. Bob Shuler Thrills Hearers at Beth Eden Last Sunday
The presence of Rev. Bob Shuler, the fighting preacher at Beth Eder Baptist Church on last Sunday was the magnet which packed this edifice from pit to dome, fully 2000 persons being present. Neither were they disappointed in coming, for truly this fiery, fighting preacher brought a message which not only lifted them up but one brimful of inspiration.
It was a great day for peace, for better understanding such as could not be unless the people get together and hear for themselves. Now as a result of this meeting a better understanding was apparent as the audience was thrilled with the fiery eloquence and forceful truths which came from the lips of Bob Shuler.
Prejudices and hatred, disappeared "like the baseless fabric of a vision," Rev. Bob Shuler was better acquainted with the Negro and the Negro was better acquainted with Rev. Shuler. For truly let all other halt that will, we would wish to be among those who eschew hate, prejudice and malice. Therefore the meeting on last Sunday was a great day in Zion, Editor J. B. Bass presided and introduced the famous preacher. The chorus from Grant Chapel under the direction of Mr. Eggleston furnished the music. Attorney E. C. Jennings and others were introduced to the large audience.

INDUSTRIAL COUNCIL ACHIEVING RESULTS
ATTEND SUNDAY'S MEETING AT ST. PAUL BAPTIST CHURCH
The program of the Industrial Council, which have been increasing in interest each month, will probably be eclipsed when the organization meets Sunday afternoon, July 13, 3 o'clock at the St. Paul Baptist Church, 21st and Naomi, as special features have been prepared.
This organization which was started by a group of forward-looking, wide awake women assisted by the same type of men, was the first to ingite the attention of the colored people of this community to consider seriously their economic condition and plan ways and means of corralling their buying power by using care and exercising wisdom in their spending. Our slogan of, "Don't trade where you cannot work," is awakening people far and near as to the strength of purchasing power.
It is also the aim of the Council to assist in creating jobs and in many ways alleviating conditions by working on the cause of things rather than the effect. It is hoped that the business people of Los Angeles will join in and help in this movement and like similar organizations in other states, by allying our forces, we can accomplish much. In most instances we are truly the captains of our fate and our future depends not so much upon what others do for us it does on what we do for ourselves. Let everybody come out Sunday afternoon and contribute your bit toward breaking the shackles of economic slavery.

PIERSON MURDER MYSTERY MOVES TO-WARD SOLUTION
Chicago, July 9—(A.N.P.). Recent developments in the E. D. Pierson, Sr. murder case, which have already led to the arrest of Dr. A. M. Townsend. Sr., secretary of the National Baptist Publishing Board, his son, Dr. A. M. Townsend. Jr., physician, Rev. B. J. F. Westbrooks, prominent Indianapolis minister and George Washington, alleged notorious gunman, indicate that before the trial is held several other prominent churchmen and ministers will be implicated.
With the report that the elder Townsend, Westbrook, and Washington had been reindicted, the sentiment was freely expressed in certain sections that the prosecution had lost ground. This opinion was dispelled by a statement by E. D. Pierson, Jr., who has been active in the investigation since the funeral of his father.
"We intend to push this case to the utmost, and if necessary, all of the resources of the Pierson family, conations from friends and others interested in seeing justice done, will be used to see that this end is reached. We have not, since the investigation began, found it necessary to retrace any step made or to retract one statement made. Those charged with the crime were first arrested upon affidavit for murder.
"The indictment charging them with conspiracy to commit a felony, to wit: murder, was the first indictment reached. This was necessary, due to the fact that under the law of Indiana no one can be charged with murder who is not in Indiana, at the time of the crime. The defendants, Dr. A. M. Townsend, and his son, Dr. A. M., Jr., will be tried for murder by agent, and conspiracy to murder; Washington with murder in the first degree and Westbrook with conspiracy. The case will be submitted to a jury of our peers and upon them will rest the judgment."
According to reports from the little town of Scottsboro, the scene of the crime, young Townsend is believed to have been at the murder, and officers are looking for an unidentified white man, whom Washington, at one time is alleged to have confessed was his companion.
The investigation is yet under way and startling disclosures are expected before the trial begins, involving several well-known ministers. Information is reported to be in the hands of the investigators that will warrant the apprehension of these people who are said to be contenders for leadership in the National Baptist Convention, and as soon as it is deemed expedient, it is said the warrants will be issued and served.
Dr. Townsend and his son are fighting extradition and the hearing will be held before Governor Horton Thursday. Much significance according to the report circulating in Nashville that Dr. Townsend and telegraphic reports of the indictment sometime before he was notified officially or that the attorney general of Tennessee had been advised of the action of the Grand Jury. While it is expressed in Nashville that it will be a difficult matter to extradite the Townsend, investigators and the attorney representing the Pierson family, Attorney Eph Inman, expect to win the battle. The Townsends are said to have employed eleven of the twelve leading criminal lawyers in Nashville, three in Indianapolis and three in Scottsboro, all there are there.
Chicago and the country are vitally interested in the case and are watching every development with much eagerness.

MARATHON
As if feeling satisfied that he will have the $1000 first prize to keep the well known wolf away from their door. Bob Newton well known middleweight puglist, number 16, in Maywood's thrilling Minstrel Marathon takes unto himself a-bride Friday-night. July 11th.
zBefore what promises to be a capacity audience in the pavilion at Maywood where seven couples of the original 12 are dancing day and night. "Smiling Bob" as he is called will be united in marriage by a leading colored minister to winsome little Marie Henderson. NEARING 900 HQURS The whole country is marvelling at the wonderful grit, fortitude, and stamina displayed by these young colored contestants in comparison to former marathons in other parts of the country.
In this the first colored marathon held west of Chicago; the contestants all do some special acts to entertain the crowd making it an excellent amusing, attention holding 24 hour show. For instance "Georgia Boy" former kid cow-puncher spins a rope equal to Will Rogers; Dot Williams and Dot West no a fast two girl dance revue; Billie Davis, Ramon Smith and others sigh over the radio, all do something. Florence Bolden who danced 200 hours without a partner is now paired with Maurice Giles.
THE PRESENT LINE-UP
The seven couples now left are:
No. 3—Graham Fain and Dot West.
No. 5—Dot Williams and Smiles Woods.
No. 17—Maurice Giles and Rose Bolden.
JURETTE AND ROBERT
CLICK
Among the many entertainers who drift in from time to time are Teddy Peters, Sam Harris and others, but perhaps the most faithful in helping while the long hours away are Jourette and Robert a little white couple who ought to be on big time vaudeville. They sing and dance like nobody's business nearly every night. Jerry a blonde with a happy vivid personality that gives her the appearance of getting more kick out of it than anyone else has a strong rich voice, can tap dance to perfection and "snake hips" till Earl Tucker would get jealous.
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
Everybody has been looking forward to this marathon wedding, the girl in the case-having met her future hubby across the ringside tail of the dance platform.

I have been so very busy this week that my golf news may be somewhat scant this week but here are a few tidbits for you.
Arriving this morning I was invited by three white friends to a round of 18 holes at the Midwick club and had a very enjoyable time being treated like a regular guest among a regular bunch of fellows. I had a 73 to their 83, 45 and 90.
My old friend Clarence Drew informed me that the boys are to have their annual employee's tournament this month. The first week will be for practice, then the tournament will get under way. The entrants to date: Clarence Drew, Ed Boyer, Harry Taylor, Mr. Lane and Mr. Dinkens, all good golfers.
Tuesday morning I made a dash for my home club, Brookside Park. Together with Mr. Erickson and Mr. Woods I shot a snappy 68 just two strokes above the official course record.
I wonder what my good friend, L. P. Grant thinks about it. There is something for the boys to shoot at.

Movie Vets Son Has
Elaborate Wedding
Few Hollywood weddings surpass the beautiful poetic settings for a ceremony performed last week between S. T. Thomas, son of Mrs. Irene Allen and Miss Mola Roberts, 1333 E. 28th street. Following a beautiful solo "Because" by Miss Geneva Stringer the pretty bride-elect wandered down a winding path of canvas spread on the lawn until she met her lover underneath a great white bell suspended from an arbor. There awaited Rev. S. M. Beane who solemnized the event in an impressive manner. Photographers from motion picture studios snapped pictures of the large number of guests, the many beautiful presents, etc. The whole ceremony and the serving of the refreshments that followed took place outdoors on the lawn.
Mrs. Allen is one of the best known local players in motion pictures both she and Mr. E. Allen being veterans of the silent screen. "Mamba," "Hallelujah," "The Sea 'Bat" and many others are some of her latest films, while Mr. Allen worked in "Four Feathers," "Trader Horn," "The Lost God" and others recently. One of their silent pictures was the famous series that recounts the "Tales of Tarzan."

DORIS GARRISON, sister of the well-known and well liked "Slick," will soon and sudden be a top notcher in the ranks of entertainers. Just now she is a member of Grant's little revue that "stopped 'en' at the Marathon. She has everything to get her over; pretty figure, pep, personality, a good voice and natural dancing ability.

"THE LAST MILE" drew a full house on the last night last Saturday just as it did all week. It will long be remembered for the tense, deep, enthralling silence that gripped all who sat through it from curtain to curtain.
John Lester Johnson is superb as Sonny Jackson, the only colored person in the death house of Keystone penitentiary, Oklahoma.
Strong, pathetic, yet his quaint sayings at times adding the only touch of humor to the otherwise sordid drama. He further makes the part an outstanding character by spirituals he sings in a deep, clear voice full of feeling. Much complimentary discussion was heard in the lobby between acts about his playing. Johnson is also one of the world's most famous heavyweight pugilists.
LOUIE COLE whose name means popularity, classy clothes, talent and business hustle all in one is dividing his movie and concert career with a new big venture as manager of a gasoline service station. Louie has a splendid baritone voice.

By A.M.P.
Philadelphia, Pa., June 17—Albert Williams, who was wanted in Quantico, where he had escaped when under arrest, made a sensational dash for liberty just as he was being taken into the Eighth and Jefferson Streets police station. He had succeeded in knocking down Deputy U. S. Marshall William Clark and tossed a detective over shoulder. However, he was recaptured after a brief chase. He was wanted in Quantico on a liquor violation charge. Officers arrested him as he was lhning up for his pay from a contractor at 11th and Oxford Streets.

Fair complexioned colored girls are frequently turned down at the studios for that reason alone as regardless of their talent it would be necessary to make them up un-naturally dark to fill some part.
Mildred Washington occasionally has this experience, though because of her vivid personality and ability to screen well directors have used the highest arts of camoflauge to tone down her color. But last week at First National they had to give up as the contrast between her as maid and her white mistress in the picture was not sufficiently marked to portray a mistake in identities to be made by her "mistress" ardent lover.

RAILROAD CLATTER COAST DOINGS By Charles L. Upton
Friday, July 11, 1930
UPTON SAYS
Some of our fair ladies have taken up the fad of wearing their pajamas in the streets. I can well imagine that it will just suit some of these dames who find dressing such a bore. They say the fad started in Hollywood. If some of those movie stars could step over on Central Avenue and see what I spied wearing pajamas, I'm afraid the fad would go dead. Mr. J. B. Bage says if the thing keeps up he is going to strut down Central in his Hendon shorts. Get in line ladies, get in line.
The Railroad Clatter wishes to congratulate Dave Rosemond and Eddie Nash on the anniversary of their birth which comes during the month Your birthstone is the ruby, symbolic of mental contentment.
GRAHAM AIR CRASH LETTER
RETURNED TO LOS ANGELES
PULLMAN PORTER—
G. C. Curry, well-known Los Angeles Pullman porter is the proud owner and has the distinction of having returned to him a prized possession in the form of an air mail letter which started on its journey to New York City, January 10th, but never arrived. Mr. Curry wrote the letter to Mrs. Hazel Lewis, 247 W. 149th street, Apt. 6-D. The letter was dispatched on the ill fated Graham air mail plane which went down in a crash somewhere in the mountains of Utah. The letter was astray exactly five months and twenty days from the time it left this city until the time that Mr. Curry had it back in his possession again. All mail on this plane had been given up by authorities as lost, as no trace of the missing plane could be found by airmen who soared the clouds. Recently the crashed plane was discovered but there was no sign or trace of the aviator. The mail was found intact in a locked compartment, which led the authorities to believe that the airman was unhurt at the time the plane crashed. It is a rule of mail pilots to lock these mail compartments if they should be forced to leave the ship.
As soon as the plane was discovered, searching parties were organized and searched the country for many miles in the vicinity of where it crashed and they are still making an effort to find some trace of the missing aviator. Although it is the common belief among the almren that he is dead, daily papers however stated that the pilot had but one chance in a thousand of coming out of the accident with his life, when the plane crashed, and on the strength of that they contend that he may still be wandering somewhere with lost reasoning on account of the shock. While these hopes are based on thin calculating, Graham's wife remains of the firm belief that he is still alive.
Mr. Curry is very much elated over having the letter returned to him, and has been informed by Postmaster O'Brien that the stamp has an unusual value as a relic and will be sought by many stamp collectors in the near future. Mr. Curry claims that the money end of it holds no attraction for him as he can well afford to keep the letter for a relic and the brief history that is attached to it.
By the way, I almost forgot to mention the fact that Mr. Curry takes care of the rear-end of the crack coast line limited, "The Padre" and although the writer cannot speak very highly for the proceeds that Mr. Curry might derive from his favorite run, it seems to suit Mr. Curry who never mumbles or grumbles on the lightness of his load. In fact he is one porter operating out of this District that is well able to run up and down the coast empty the year round. We all take our hats off to Mr. Curry, and are glad to see him back hitting the ball after a two months' spell of illness.
CHAS. L. UPTON OWNS A FOUR
LEGGED PIGEON—
Believe it or not, the writer having about thirty pigeons of all kinds and breeds, was startled beyond words, when upon inspecting his flock of birds he discovered a squab four weeks old that refused to come off the nest. Upon investigation it was discovered that the bird which is a red carnal, had four legs, and four feet. It was immediately separated from the rest of the cock and a special cage built for it. It is planned to put the bird on exhibition at the State fair in Sacramento. Anyone wishing to verify the writer's statement in regard to the pigeon having four legs can do so by calling at the writer's address and inspecting the pigeon. This can be done any evening after 7:00 o'clock.

WHAT HAS BECOME OF
SENIORITY RIGHTS IN L. A.?—
The word seniority with the porters in Los Angeles used to be a mighty big word, but since the present superintendent has taken charge of the District, the word seniority counts for so much English and that's all. Porters soon found that out, shortly after, the change in superintendents was made, although the Pullman Co. puts seniority on a high plane and something not to be tampered with, it has been murdered by the present head of this District in many, many instances.
A little pamphlet issued by the Pullman Co., which is supposed to be the guiding genius of the porters, called the "Employee Representation Plan," in one paragraph states that SENORITY PREVAILS. But does it? Well in some cases, yes! That is only when the superintendent so desires, and brother, that in many cases is very rare.
The writer is not writing these articles to create any agitation whatever, but to show the great injustice that is being heaped upon the helpless group of hard-working Pullman Porters operating out of Los Angeles. Writing the true facts about Pullman Porters and Pullman officials was the cause of the writer losing his job, but if my readers have been keeping up with this column, I am sure they have noticed that it has not missed an issue.
I have pages upon pages of data concerning the injustices that have been heaped upon Pullman Porters in this District which I am going to relate in the very near future, and I do not believe the Pullman officials in Chicago know that a lot of it is going on; if they do, they are more heartless than they would have the public believe.
Getting back to this seniority question. I can name over forty porters operating out of this district who are qualified, and who have got seniority enough to get different lines. BUT who are fairly TURNED DOWN when they go to execute a bump, after putting in the best part of their lives building up a good record, serving the Company faithfully year in and year out until they do get in a position to get on a run where they can make a living, instead of existing, they are fairly turned down on their legitimate request for a better line. If any of these porters happen to get displaced from the line that they are operating on, and desire another line by their rightful claim, they are out of luck.
A ceaseless program of wholesale firing of first-class service men has been going on in this District for some time, until now the District is shunned by every Pulman Porter in the country. It has only been a short time ago when a waiting list was always on hand in other districts of porters wishing to transfer to Los Angeles, but try and find it now. It is nowhere to be had.
Many porters now located here, if it was for the fact that they are tied hand and foot in buying homes would have left long ago. If Eastern porters were to make an offer of an even exchange in seniority rights Los Angeles would be vacated over night, but who wants to come here and railroad by the trip. A porter leaves out on his run now days and if he sneezes too loud while the passengers are in their slumber he is more than likely not to go out on his run next trip. The way conditions have been in the Los Angeles District every since a year ago, has been little short of slavery. This is not the rumblings of a disgruntled porter and that my readers will plainly see when I explain my entire case in these columns shortly. I hold no ill feeling toward the Pullman Company. I have not asked any or its officials for a dime since the 15th of April the day they fired me, and that is not all, I never expect to ask them for a dime. When I was working for them I gave them my labor, even the underpaid and never grumbled, never was in the office before the superintendent but twice; once when I was displaced from my line and sought another one where my seniority was supposed to prevail, and was fatly refused on account of the porter I was seeking to displace was a "LOYAL" porter, since whom it learn has left the service under a cloud. So much for "LOYALTY." And the next time when I was summoned into the superintendent's office and given my walking papers on account of a personal issue, and a couple of "trumped up charges."
PULL OLDEST PORTER IN
DISTRICT OFF OF LARK-
The old battle cry of "every tull" fell on the head of C. Smith recently, when he overlooked a passenger's bag and was nalled to the cross for a traf from the Crack Coast Line Limited, "The Lark." Nobody is safe in this District if he makes an error. Smith is number one on the seniority list and a nice, good, "TOTAL" porter.
ELK & HOLD CONVENTION
IN ATLANTIC CITY—
The sixty-sixth annual convention of Elks was held in Atlantic City this week. Up until the present time the writer has been unable to find out whether an Elks' special left Los Angeles or not. The boys are afraid to let me know the news and I have to get it the best way I can. However any news mailed to 2190 West 30th street will be held in strict confidence as pertains to the name of the sender. Mail it in, don't be yellow.

Free White Politician
Who Killed Preacher
Chicago, June 17-James Pampinella, white, a political worker associated with the Deneen faction here, was acquitted by a jury in Judge McGoorty's criminal court last Friday of the charge of having murdered Rev. William H. Slaughter, a colored minister affiliated with the Thompson forces during the recent registration day, March 11th. Pampinella won his freedom despite the fact that two colored women, Mrs. Ella Officer and Mrs. Maeyen Hadley, testified that they saw him shoot Slaughter. An eleven-year-old girl likewise swore that Pampinella fired the fatal shot. The killing took place in a heavily populated Negro district on the near northside.
Although the state's attorneys failed to present the fact, Pampinella claimed that he had no reason to shoot him. He also claimed never to have had a revolver in his hand during his life time. Although the state's attorneys failed to introduce the fact, criminal court records show that Pampinella was a police character having been arrested for stealing an automobile and for robbery. Both times he was acquitted although his accomplices were convicted. White people in court cheered when the verdict was returned.

JOY REIGBNS AS SENATOR SIMMONS IS DEFEATED
Releigh, N. C., June 17—Negroes throughout the nation must have rejoiced, along with those of this state at the defeat of Senator F. M. Simmons, by J. W. Barley for the Democratic nomination of Senator.
Groups throughout the State of N. Carolina listened anxiously to the returns of the election and when the fact the Senator Simmons had been defeated was established and the Senator himself admitted defeat, there was a sigh or relief as well as much joy. Senator Simmons, for years has been one of the greatest obstacles to the civic and political progress of the Negro in this state. There was a time when Negro was an important factor in politics in this state and held many responsible positions, as well repre-

sented the balance of power in elections.
According to reports here, for years during reconstruction days, Senator Simmons courted the tovar of the Negro group and for a while as a Republican received their support. When he was opposed by Henry P. Cheatham, the Negro voters supported his opponent and he was defeated.

His defeat at this time, along with his claim that a Negro had killed his father, is believed to have been the reason for his desertion of the Republican Party and seeking refuge in the Democratic Party, which had always resented the participation of Negroes in politics. Upon joining the ranks of the Democratic Party, with Josephus S. Daniels, who served as Secretary of the Navy, under the Wilson administration, he organized what was known as the "Red Shirts" whose main purpose was to drive Negroes out of politics.
Immediately after the organization of this group, a state-wide program of intimidation of Negroes was launched and at elections, the "Red Shirts" presented themselves at the polls and terrorized Negro voters and prevented them from voting. It was such an election which caused the Wilmington Riot in 1898 and resulted in many of the most prominent Negroes of the state being driven out.
As a result of the reign of terror caused by Senator Simmons and his "Red Shirts" the Democrats swept the election and subsequently the passage of the Grandfather Clause was effected which for ten years prevented Negroes to vote. During this period the group lost power which it once held and has never regained it.
To participate in politics, more than half of the few Negro voters of the present time are registered as Democrats and it is believed that they were a factor in Senator Simmons defeat. Recently the right of Negroes to vote in the primary conducted by Democrats was contested but through the efforts of Negro attorneys the Negro Democrats were permitted to vote. With the defeat of Senator Simmons, it is thought here that a new era in politics, as far as the Negro is concerned, has dawned and already a strong organization, the North Carolina Welfare League, whose object to promote the civic and political advancemen of Negroes has been launched with C. C. Spaulding as president
Librarians Flock to L.A.
Are we a reading nation? Do Americans need books? Are libraries an essential part of our modern world? These and similar questions will be answered by the two thousand librarians who are convening at the Biltmore Hotel June 23 to 28 for the 52nd annual meeting of the American Library Association.
When the Association was a small group fifty years ago, there were only three hundred public libraries in the United States and now there are over 6,000. Development of the library movement in the United States has been greatly aided by the activities of the American Library Association which numbers 13,000 members drawn from all parts of the United States and Canada.
Four general sessions and more than forty group discussions have been planned for the convention week. Subjects of interest include radio programs, education for adults, books for children, hospital and prison book service, Americanization service by libraries, and books for the blind.
The Los Angeles Public Library, its well equipped central building and its splendid branch system of 49 branches, will be a subject of much interest to visitors. All California librarians are

RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MUSIC TEACHER
By: ELMER C. BARTLETT
After many years of teaching hundreds of persons, from the little tots of 5-years to the adults of 50, I am convinced that the responsibility of an efficient, and sincere music teacher, is a great one. Many of us music teachers have started little children on their musical education, before they knew their notes, or even the names of the keys, and have seen them develop into mature and capable players. The responsibility entrusted to us as music teachers, by parents and guardians of children of tender years, has always produced worthwhile results, with serious minded students. Young children and beginners of music should have the best teachers, for if they do not receive a good foundation at the start their entire musical education will be faulty.
The Piano best provides the fundamentals of music study, no matter what instrument is to be made a speciality. The teachers who have devoted years to teaching, and have themselves, kept abreast with the times are best suited to give better advise and help to students. Each pupil is an individual problem and his or her particular needs must be studied and corrected.
Parents should select a music teacher, with just as much care as they do a physician. The cheapest teachers are not the best. The best teachers are the cheapest. The responsibility of the music teacher is great because he teaches the thing without no life is complete, and in full harmony with creation, if omitted. Boys should study music, they need it, as well as girls. Summed up the responsibilities of a good music teacher are:—
To see if a student (pupil) has talent.
To find his specific needs.
To arouse his interest in study.
To intelligently teach him, with modern presentation principles.
To so prepare him musically that he will be able to use his talent and knowledge, in a manner that will repay him a hundred-fold, educationally and financially.
See that your boy or girl gets a good teacher at the start.
Medical, Dental, Pharmaceutical Ass. Will Meet in July
On July 14, 15, 16, 1930, the Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association of the state of California will hold its annual convention in Los Angeles.
On Monday evening July 14th, we are holding our open public session at the Second Baptist Church, 24th St. and Griffith Avenue, as usual the public is invited to this meeting. The members of the State Medical Association are anxious to give information to the general public on preventive medicine.
Tuesday evening, July 15th, we will have two public meetings, one for the women and one for the men, at the Second Baptist Church. These meetings will be held at the same time in different parts of the church.
Dr. F. Tucker Moore, President of the local Branch, and Dr. W. E. Bailey, Chairman of the Entertainment Committee of the local Branch, are planning to entertain the members of the State Medical Association and their wives.
RIGHT AND WRONG
Surely the problem of right and wrong is as old as human society. From ages past moralists have expounded on the origin and nature of good and evil. But the problem forever arises unsolved.
Doubtless, geographical bounds, customs, traditions, inherited tendencies, and training influence a person's ethics. An African Zulu with his many wives feels as religiously justified, as morally upright as his do his foreign bro

thers and sisters in other parts of the world who practice (?) monogamy. The head hunters of New Guinea no doubt feel as free of guilt after enemies as does a Chicago policeman who slays a gangster in self defense.
While there are certain points in ethics that have been agreed upon by the mighty of the civilized races, notwithstanding, one must consider environment, inheritance, and training before passing a final judgement on the morality of a person or race.
Adventurous spirits are wont to challenge the Thou Shalt Not decrees of authority. Some go so far as to rebel against any custom or code that tends to curtail the freedom of their behavior. Nor are all such questionings and rebellions the expression of immorality, for usually many of our good people are merely good because they fear public opinion. On the other hand many of our bad fellows are just daring and fearless enough to be themselves.
Morals are relative; they vary according to the time and place. They are experiential; they are usually based on the cumulative experiences of mankind. They are utilitarian; they usually aim at the greatest good for the greatest number of people.
Some men are good because of fear, some because of selfishness, and others because of a pious nature. Whatever the motive, the man who does right is blessed. But what is right?
The problem of right and wrong must be solved by the individual with due regard for sensible social customs.

WATER AND POWER
E. F. Scattergood, chief electrical engineer and general manager of the Bureau of Power and Light has submitted to the Board of Water and Power Commissioners, Mayor Porter, the Chamber of Commerce and the Citizens Water and Power Committee a report showing the Bureau's capital needs for the next three years. The sum of $19,000,000 will be asked for in the form of bonds and the bureau will supply, out of surplus revenues, $12,000,000, making a total of $31,000,000 to be expended over the ensuing three year period.
The purposes for which the money is needed are for the construction of additional receiving and distribution stations and general additions and betterments to the entire distributing system within the city, as a preparatory measure to the handling of the additional power load to come from the Boulder Dam power station. The expansion of its power producing units in Owens Valley to care for the increasing pumping operations in the Valley. Additions to the plants along the aqueduct to care for the increased demand for power within the City. The construction of a transmission line from the Valley to Power Plant No. I in San Francisco into Canyon to bring from Owens Valley any surplus of power that may be available during periods when the wells in the Valley are shut down, and for the protection of the City's water supply in the Valley in case of accident to the power plants in the Valley during the heavy pumping season. Also for the purchase of the necessary rights of way from the Boulder Dam power plant to Los Angeles for a transmission line to bring in the Boulder Dam power.
Details of the entire three years program of the Bureau have been worked out and are now being given careful check by the Mayor and the Chamber of Commerce and the Citizens Water and Power Committee. When all the details have been arranged the Mayor will call upon the Citizens Water and Power Committee to organize a campaign for the placing before the voters all the facts relative to the Bureau's plans.
On June 19, Mayor Porter, John C Austin, president of the Chamber of Commerce; Harvey Mudd, chairman of the special committee of the Chamber; H. O. Wheeler, chairman of the Chamber's Water and Power Resources Committee; I. Elsner, W. L. Honold, W. K. Barnard, Charles M. Feider, representing organized labor; Commissioners O. T. Johnson, Jr. Frank H. Brooks, E. M. Scopell, A. B. Prior; E. F. Scattergood, chief electrical engineer and general manager of the Bureau of Power and Light; H. A. Van Norman, chief engineer and general manager of the Bureau of Water Works and Supply made a trip of inspection along the line of the Los Angeles Aqueduct and up into Mono Basin where the proposed works for the developing City's new water and power supply is to be secured. The purpose of the trip was to enable the citizens to visualize the whole system in order to be able to carefully analyze the Bureau's plans for the additions to the system.
OPEN LETTER
Editor Chicago Defender,
Chicago, Illinois
Dear Editor:
There are numerous ways for unheard of and insignificant persons to break into print. J. Wilson of Oakland, California is one of those persons and his letter denouncing the women of his race should never have been published. Regardless of the Defender's reputation for publishing truths and authentic matter, papers or people do not publish or say certain things about themselves nor their shortcomings and the opposite group is the best example of that statement that I know of.
In spite of the fact that ahy number of white women are committing crimes daily and are breaking the law in general I have yet to witness, an account in any white paper or magazine condemning all white women. Some of these crimes committed would pale the women of our group into insignificance even in perportion to population.
More insults; systematic lies and preposterous accusations have been heaped upon Negro women than upon any other group of women in the world. How any Negro woman can condemn and degrade them in such a damnable and vicious manner as the colored "gentleman" from Oakland is more than I can understand. The life of the black American woman from the days of slavery to the therese time has been one of trials tribulations and insults, many from the men of her own group. Out of it all she has wedged her way into the world bridled with a determination and a firm moral background that has produced some

TO A GIRL OF 14-YEARS
"But", you say, as you glance down this column. "Why do you spend so much time talking about my feet, I not half as much interested in them as I am in other parts of my body." No, I know full well that you aren't, and the very sad part about it is that nooby else is either. And that very fact my, dear child, is the cause of the alarming amount of "foot trouble" in the world today. Do you know that during the world war that the nation was appalled by the number of young men who were physically disabled by their cupped feet? And now suppose women had been examined for service, why I dare say most of them would have rejected.
Women Rejected In War, Because Of Cuneped Feet.
Of course our women did not have to go to war and fight in the trenches. I trust that even in this age of feminine "encapitation," that it will never come to that. But, had it been so; there is one consolation probably 9 out of every 10 would have gotten to stay at home because of cuppeled or deformed feet.
So, dear, you see with so much foot distress and disorder among both men and women it is only the part of wisdom to seek to warn you, and to give you the instruction which may prevent the condition in your feet.
The High Cost of High Heeled Shoes
Already you have started to talk and planning about high heeled shoes. When however we have talked of them for a while I believe that you may consider them too expensive for you to wear.
When you were a little girl common sense ruled in the choice of your shoes. From now an, as long as you wish to have the comfort, and joy of "foot ease" common sense must also rule.
Most children pass their childhood into early adult life with sound feet, but just there is where trouble soon besets them. The following is sketched from Hygiia, "All high heeled shoes are in effect too short for their wearers. They are worn for the sole purpose of making the feet appear smaller than they actually are. (I doubt this statement, for many persons think more of the grace and height given their feet by high heels then of the size.) Under weight, bearing the bones the flesh slip forward and downward in the flesh, which, is held in place by the high heeled shoe. As the bony foot is driven downward by the body weight the toes are crumpled under the narrow toe cap, the constant friction produces corns on the tops of the lesser toes and bunions over the great toe joint, and a bunionette over the little toe joint as the big toe is jammed forward by this downward force it is also pushed outward by the pointed toe of the shoe, causing the valgus deformity which goes with a bunion. Because of the constant pressure against the inner sides of the great toes, the wearer finds her self "toeing out" as she walks.
(To be continued)
To all Pioneers of Pioneer Club, No. 1, our next place of meeting will be at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Phillips, 1209 E. 34th St, July 15th. 1930 at 8 o'clock P. M.; election of officers on the above date.
of the most remarkable characters the countr yaffords regardless of Wilson and his ilk.
Obviously, Wilson, like a large number of Negro men has gone white woman crazy and he thinks that just because some pale-faced female has given him a break (as they all term it), he must heap hell and damnation upon the heads of the sisters of the woman who brought him into the world. It is either this or some bewitching colored girl with whom he was in love jilted him. However, since he has seen fit to gain publicity via such unbridled audacity, I am positive that no colored woman the world over would pat him on the back if he was choking on a bone.

The setting for the Bob Shuler
lecture last Sunday afternoon was. im-
posing to say the least. According t¢
jthe Trinity " Methodist church radi¢
preacher 1800 gleaming faces sat_be-
|fore him. eagerly drinking in evers
| srerd that fell from “Fighting” Bob’
lips,
| Bob Shuter started his discourse by
| telling his hearers about an experience
jhe had when he was a wee boy. Said
he, "While 1 was yet a lad-there lived
jin my neighborhood a boy by the
name of Sam, One day Samy and 1
had a fight, he wallopped me. [ wore

even making an impression upon him.
so ever ‘since that time | have been
figuring how to get even with Sam's
face, <0 F have decided: to keep you
here this afternoon for about two or
‘three: hours listening.”
“In the tide water region of Virginia
where I was rearea, the people of that
community acquired the habit of
reckoning everything either before oF
fatter the dam break, so my iriends I
have the habit now .of reckoning all
of my experiences by either before go-
ing to jail Or aiterwards. Just before
I was incarcerated my wife asked me
this question: “Did I have enui stuff
in me that God supplies to live up
there (in jail) with those fellows.’ to
which L:replied, “Yes, honey,” I did
not go in jail, said Mr. Shuler and at-
tempt to convert every man I found
there, 1 simply tried t6 live so that
those about me might be impressed of
‘the fact that my life was imbued with
the milk 6f human kindness, and I am
sure I ide the right impression upon
those paor, helpless jail-mates. for a
jew wetks aiter my release, one Sun-
day evening in my church service
noticed at the altar one of the boys I
had met in the tank and-a little iater
a Mexicar boy who was also with me
in jail came tor my service and asked
to hecome apart of, our Christian or-
Ganization.” “Then turning to his
great audience, whieh scemed to be all
tars. Mtr. Shuler said in part that the
amazing thing in this civilization is we
have the church and thevchurch is the
biggest, asset to the community. With
anti-religious elements. in our midst
such as Bolsheviks, without the influ-
ence of the’ church, conaitions would
be worse than they are,
I believe in the practical problems of
life, I went to jail for free speech,
John Bunyan, Saint Pani and others
could have been saved from jail if

tin Luther who exercised his right of
free speech. “Do you.know what it
Was that put slavery on the blink, why
it was agitation, eternal agitation by

TWELFTH AND HEMLOCK
July 6, 1930.—We had excellent services all day. The pastor, Rev. J. D Gordon, preached at 11 o'clock from the subject: Abraham said unto Lot, let there be no strife I pray thee, and between my Herdman and their Herdman, for we are brethren. Of which he held his listeners spell-bound for about forty minutes. He described the friendship and brotherly love between Abram and Lot, and how these two men settled their differences because of the faith Abram had in God, he obeyed as God would direct.
At 3 o'clock the afternoon services were held by the Young People, better known as the Usher Board of the Tabernacle Baptist church. This being their first anniversary they declared they would make it a great day and invited to sit with them 26 Usher Boards of the city and vicinity and of this number, seventeen were represented.
It was a beautiful sight to see them all dressed in their regular uniform which they wear at their churches. We wonder if the God of Heaven will spare us to see 26 Usher Boards assembled in one body next July, one year from now. The Tabernacle Baptist choir was at their best. I wonder if they sing that way all the time?
The reading from Mrs. Essie Smith gave us food for thought, and the quartee from the Usher Board was a knock-out. The reading by Mrs. Cecelle Thomas was good as usual. Mrs. E. M. Boyd's solo swept the church, after which the Rev. J. D. Gordon preached a sermon for the Usher;s; his text was. "It is better to be a Doorkeeper in the House of the Lord. Than to Dwell in the Tents of the Wicked." He handled this as you know to a perfection. It's just like Gordon to do everything well. The solo rendered by Miss Martha Hurst-burger took our minds back to the Grand Opera of the days of Madam Shumann-Heink. The presentation of white rose buds for the Usher Board to Miss Husthugen, Thomas and Boyd was beautiful. We wonder which one of the Usher Board members grew them.
The silver offering was collected by Mrs. Burguess, First A. M. E. Mrs. Jackson, Ndw Hope; Mr. Williams, of Tabernacle and Mr. Toney of Metronolitan. Yes, the women bent in the collection as usual.
The presentations made to the Pastor, Trustees, Choir and Usher-Board came as a surprise by Mrs. E. Smith, Mrs. Estella Hensley, Mrs. Ruby Mae Crossby and Mrs. P. McCullough, after which all Ushers had their pictures made in front of the church.
The following Usher Boards were represented: Wesley Chapel, Hamilton, C. M. E., St. Paul Bartist, Bethel A. M. E., Metropolitan Baptist, Mt. Zion, First A. M. E., Zion Hill, New Hope, First A. M. E., Zion Union Baptist, Independent Church of Christ, First Baptist, L. A., Phillips Chapel, St. Phillin Ensloscal, First Baptist Furlong Tract. The president, Mr. H. C. Hensley extends many thanks and congratulations for the manner in which the Boards co-operated. He said he will be pleased to meet you again in one great body one year from this July.

The Mothers Council in the afternoon followed, by the B. Y. P. U. had the fire burning and those present were in a receptive mood for the powerful message at 8 P. M. by the Pastor—Subject, "Prepare to meet thy God." He spoke of the extensive preparations for earthly careers in the professional, Business, Political and Social worlds that may or may not come to pass, and what little preparation was made to meet our Redeemer which will surely come. His hearers were convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that regardless of one's standing here, they would have to meet their God. If life Everlasting would be theirs. They must make preparation here. Forty-three persons received the right hand of fellowship, after which Communion brought the day's services to close. St. Paul invites you—Come worship here:

Prohibition Debate At A.M.E.Z. Church
The Dinner-Debate to be given at the First A. M. E. Zion church. Tuesday night, July 15th, is planned to be the most attractive event of he kind that has ever been held a this church. It is sponsored zy the church Brotherhood and will be a banquet. The menu will be especially appealing; the fried chicken, to be sure will be careful-selected Rhode Island Reds and every thing else on the card will be up to the same high standard.
Apart from th menu, the big feature of the occasion will be the debate on the Prohibition question, i.e. "Shar the 18th Amendment to the Constitution of the United Staes be Repealed?" This great question which has the entire nation on edge will be debated i n the affirmative by Loren Miller, managing editor of the California News and John Jamison; a brilliant young law graduate from Howard University; the negative side will be handled by Deputy District Attorney Leon Whitaker and the eloquent Lloyd Griffith of the City Attorney's office.
These names speak volumes and insure a veritable "feast of reason" in the clash of trained intellects to be brought into action. Alogheer the occasion will be extraordinary and the PUBLIC IS INVITED. Reservations are being made rapidly at seventy-five cents ($75) per plate. Purchase tickets from the committee or phone for reservations Call Atlantic 9969 Rev. I. Albert oMore. Dinner begins at 7:00 P. M.
near running away with all of us, Dr. Rozier saved the day by introducing some new element. He carried us away by his eloquence, and metaphorically, dropped us down half-way between Los Angeles and Pasadena, so each of us could choose either way. It was the day for election of officers, and the following were elected: President, Rev. Dr. E. W. Moore; Vice-Pres., Rev. D. A. Jones; Secy.; Rev. J. Spencer, Assistant Secy.; Rev. G. A. Miller, Treasurer; Rev. W. A. Venerable, Rev. H. D. Prowd, was re-elected Reporter.
The Union again accepted the cordial invitation of Rev. Mr. Pins and will continue holding its meetings at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, 37th and Paloma, during the next six months. Very complimentary remarks were offered the out-going President. The newly elected officers will be installed next Monday at 1 P. M.

BAPTIST CHURCH!
9428 Zamora Street. Central Gardens
This church and the good people of Central Gardens experienced another day of quiet, and also of God's blessings. The Sunday School was well attended, and the children were happily instructed. At 11:30, Dr. Proud delivered a discourse on "The Eight Reasons for Coming to the Lord's Supper." All enjoyed the message. The Lord's Supper was observed at the close, preceded by the right hand of fellowship to a brother. It was truly a most glorious time, and all the people praised the Lord, and gave thanks unto Him. At night the Praise meeting was most inspiring, and attracted the attention of many on the out-side. The Sermon which followed was made a season of blessings to us all. With Sister Payne at the piano, the choir did excellent singing. The hand of fellowship was again given to two at night, and the people greatly rejoiced at their coming into the fold. The Trustees and Deacons cojinently have made great improvements about the Church, and there is more to follow. This Sunday is to be a day of special Thanksgiving, and Thank—Offering. Please come carly and bring someone with you. Morning subject—"Desiring to See the Christ." That at night, "Joyful when they behold the Savior." All the people have a mind to work, to pray, and to worship the Lord.

Baby Contest of N. A. A. C. P. Closes
The Second Annual Baby Contest
staged by the local N. A. A. C. P. in
including little ones from six months to
six years, closed Sunday with a re-
presentative parade of floats prettily
decorated cars and a long line of wee
on-s. middle sized and larger children.
The line of march. led by two motor-
cycle officers, started at Twenty-ninth
and Imperial Ave, then to Thirtieth
Street, down Thirtieth to Clay, Street,
up Clay to Twenty-eighth Street,
south on Twenty-eighth Street to the
Junior Memorial High School play
ground. Inside the play ground a large
crowd awaited the parade which
included the grand stand and the throne
upon which Peggy Hawkins, queen of
last year's contest, and her maids of
honor, Marie Osby and Marjorie Mc
Fadden second and third prize winners
of the previous contest.
The amount of money brought in to the association by the contest decides who are the successful ones.

The baby carriage section of the parade, in charge of Mrs. Octavia Young was one of the novel features.

Her doll buggy was patriotically decorated.

Our readers will regret to learn of the sudden death of Mrs. Lulu B. Jackson which occurred Sunday morning at the home of her daughter, Lillian Jackson Stanley, 1454 West 36th Street.
Mrs. Jackson had been dead approximately an hour when the sad event was discovered by her daughter, Hay Jackson-Robinson. Following an inquest held on Monday, death was said to have been due to heart failure.
The deceased came to Los Angeles eleven years ago with her family where she was active in fraternal and religious circles. As an employee in the shoe department of the Broadway Department Store for over eight years, she was loved and respected by both employers and associates.
Pre-deceased by her husband, Charles Jackson, four years ago, she is survived by her mother, Mrs. Lucy

The conference was a success both financially and spiritually, as well as in attendance-Oyflowing crowds attended each night session.

MACEDONIA BAPTIST CHURCH—
Rev. L. M. Curtis, Pastor—
Sunday school opened at its usual hour with the superintendent at his post of duty. The Sunday school was full of pep and many were out to take part.
The 11 o'clock services were conducted by Pastor Curtis. We celebrated the first Sunday of the fifth anniversary of our Pastor with an old time speaking meeting. Many spoke of the blessings of the Lord and many words were spoken in appreciation of our Pastor for his faithfulness and many achievements during these five years. Words cannot be found to express our appreciation to our Pastor. Our evening services were conducted by our Pastor his sermon being of a two-fold nature.
Monday evening wa the beginning of our anniversary services. Praise services began at 7:45 with Mr. Telius leading with spiritual. Pastor Curtis spoke and the subject of the text was "Faith."
Tuesday evening was a very successful session. Rev. T. T. Attison of Long Beach, his choir and congregation were with us. Rev. Attison is a strong preacher and really our hearts did burn within us as this man of God spoke to us by the way. Visiting ministers, their choirs and congregations will be with us all the week, and Monday night will be the climax which will be a banquet given honoring our pastor. A very interesting program will grace the affair and some of the best talent of Macedonia will appear on program; afterwards we will retire to the dining room where we will enjoy a splendid repasts prepared by the ladies of our church. All are requested to be present to all the services and especially present yourselves in large numbers to the banquet as ample preparations are being made to entertain a large crowd.
Mr. Thomas Hill, the husband of our very faithful member, Mrs. Sallie Hill, passed to the great beyond and his funeral was held from our church Saturday at 1 o'clock with Rev. Curtis officiating. Mr. Hill was of the steadfast faith and owned a hope in Christ and lived among us as a consistent Christian. The pastor and members of Macedonia extend to Mrs. Hill our heartfelt sorrow for her dark hours of sadness.

The funeral of Miss Elizabeth Martin was held last Saturday, July 5th from Grant Chapel A. M. E. church. E. 108th and Compton avenue. Her death was caused by an accident which occurred several weeks ago when the car in which she was riding was wrecked, at which time she received injuries from which she never recovered. She was highly respected by the people of the community and greatly loved by all who knew her. She was a member of the Church of God in Christ and was held in the highest esteem by the pastor and members. The pastor of the church, Rev. Gary, assisted by several ministers officiated at the funeral. She leaves a devoted father, Mr. E. A. Martin, one brother and other relatives.
Correcting an announcement made in one of the daily papers that Shaw Mission, M. E. church was left without a pastor, we wish to say that Rev. E. O. Stout was reassigned as pastor of this church for another year.

CORINNE BETTIS SMITH
If you are interested in advertising politically or otherwise in this paper, call Mrs. Corrine Smith. TUcker 6398 or ORregon 0507 and she will serve you.

stance will be damning to the administrative policies of Negev, Lebanon.
iative policies of Mayor Roph.
Now. Mr. Tyrrell, you might also point out the fact that in answer to all the cry about one having to be qualified under civil service, that it has recently developed and is a notorious fact that an inquiry instituted by the Board of Supervisors revealed the fact that there are at present over five hundred non-civil service positions in the city now filled, and numbered among these five hundred. THERE IS NOT ONE SINGLE NEGRO MAN OR WOMAN, all within the gift of the Mayor and do not include Boards, or Commissions. Perhaps, Mr. Tyrrell, with your facile pen or trusty typewriter, you may be able to explain this to the public and Mr. Wilson in particular.
You might also explain, sir. Tyrrell, this amazing situation, wherein the Honorable Mayor and his political advisors are now seeking to prostitute the very fountain heads of a great religious body by the appointment of one of the presiding officers of this great church, and also several of its ministers as campaign organizers, for the purpose of debiding the members thereof into working and voting for a candidate who is absolutely unworthy of the high office to which he aspires and this brings to mind, the fact conversant to any student of the Scriptures, that the great Master was never emptied into the byways of business and certainly never sought political preferment, as witness his stand when tempted by his Satanic majesty, surely a be-fitting example for these political satellites and sycophants of Mayor Rolph. Surely, Mr. Tyrrell, it is possible for you to explain these things to the inquiring public and Rev. Wilson in particular. I wonder if monetary consideration has anything to do with this, Mr. Tyrrell!
Hadley Out for Coroner Tulare County
J. M. ("Josh") Hadley has announced himself as candidate to succeed himself to the office of coroner and public administrator, as will be seen elsewhere in this paper. Mr. Hadley is well and favorably known not only in Tulare county, but throughout the state of California. In April of this year at the coroners' convention held at Del Monte, Mr. Hadley was elected president of the

The campaign seems to be warming up considerably.
Mr. William LaPlante for assessor seems to be gaining ground rapidly.
* * * * *
Judge Walter Thompson, candidate for Superior Court, Dept. No. 5, is certainly a popular candidate. He is from the ranks of the common people and is fearless, faithful and just in all of his dealings. Judge Thompson is truly a candidate of the people and for the people and justly moris the support of every consciencious voter.
Mud-slinging seems to be very much in order at this time, especially in the Rolph camp. In justice to my friends, the managers I must say they are personally conducting a clean campaign.
Mrs. Ada Faulconer is truly the most popular candidate up to date. She attends every meeting of interest and contacts personally every person attending the various meetings truly this sentiment, created by such contacts will be lasting.
* * *
Will someone please page Judge William Hazlett. Judge Carole Hardy. Judge Arthur Keetch. Judge Collier. Judge Walter Guerin. Judge Hanby and tell them they must get busy with their campaign if they expect to feature on election day. The press is truly the medium through which busy men must make contacts and mould sentiment if they are unable to attend meetings.
Our old friend, Mr. Hopkins, seems to be awak to the political situation and has opened headquarters in the Rosslyn Hotel. No one seems to be at home but Hopkins-for-Assessor headquarters will be opened in full blast by Monday.
Chief Kelly is truly a candidate to be considered by the lectorate for Sheriff. He is an electorate who obeys

also, Louis Robinson and Charles Robinson, jantors under civil service regulations. Edward Denis, who after Rolphij's election was made a special officer in the De Young Museum in Golden Gate Park was an employee of the Park Commissioners of which the late A. B. Spreckels was a member and on whose recommendation and friendship Dennis was appointed. This was a non-civil service position.
Probably the only credit that may be given the Mayor, Mr. Tyrrell is an appointment of his messengers they have been there in number, the last of which is Mr. Lon Harris, whom it is claimed receive his appointment at the request and insistence of the then Editor and Publisher of the San Francisco Examiner. The recommendation of the late Gene Jackson (having been previously recommended by a then powerful political Negro organization) was ignored as have been all requests by Negro leaders.
Now taking up the appointments of Messrs. J. M. Bost and J. M. Coleman, employees of the Board of Public Works, were compelled to pass the civil service examination at a rank higher by twenty points than all other applicants and were finally appointed by the civil service commission. Also, Mr. George Cuthbert, whom I will ask you, Mr. Tyrrell, if he is not an alien and never cast a vote in the State of California, being of English descent.
Now, Mr. Tyrrell outside the political aspect of the entire question, you might also inform the public and Rev. Wilson, just why San Francisco, with its wonderful (;) Mayor, has consistently and just what activities have been engaged in by the Mayor and his cohorts that have cheated the city of the Negro population which it deserves. You know the reasons. Mr. Tyrrell and you might go to the trouble and expense of advising the inquiring public and it may be summed in these words: that it has been chieftly because of the Rolph labor attitude, and certainly you can inform the public that under the Rolph administration in this city and with particular reference to his office commission, the sign has been hung up that "No Negro Need Apply" for a cabaret license for he surely, and callously will be denied. These and many other instances can be called to mind, and in every in-

the laws as well as enforces them. He seems to be creating favorable sentiment.
Will someone please wake our popular Judge Valentine of the municipal court and tell him there are about 47,000 votes of our group over which he doesn't seem to be concerned at this time. Is he getting cold feet or is he just late in launching his campaign? Please let me know.
* * *
Please call Judge Carl Shedon and tell him his friends are hoping he will soon let them know if he is going to launch a campaign or if he has cold feet.
We are still wondering if a few of the judges who have always carried the colored votes do not appreciate the support of the colored voters enough to spend a few paltry dollars with the colored papers for advertising. Don't you know my friends that wise men change their minds sometimes and that newer and better timber is often presented in the campaign and it pay each candidate to be considerate of the number of votes this group represents.

We are expecting you to at least spend a little more than time with us during this campaign. Are you cognizant of the fact that this periodical reaches over 47,000 voters in this county each week?
Lyon Upholds Seven Public Issues
COLUMBIA
Enthusiastic approval of the seven important public issues he is making the basis of his campaign for reelection has been received by Senator Charles W. Lyon from audiences he has addressed during the past few days. In an intensive speaking program which has taken him to many localities in Los Angeles County, women's clubs and other social and civic organizations have heard him voice his ideas on these subjects and have given hearty support to his candidacy as a result of the pledges he has made to uphold the following issues: 1. Economy and reduction of taxes.
2. Rearrangement of the state penal system to permit segregation of youths and first offenders from hardened criminals. Education and rehabilitation of criminals by teaching them useful trades and requiring them to work while incarcerated, thus lessening the cost of their maintenance and relieving some burden of the county board of charities.
3. Increasing the pro-rata percentage of gas tax money for road construction in Los Angeles County.
4. Rewriting or amending the special street improvement acts to protect property owners against overlapping and excessive special assessments and providing for contribution from the general funds of the city or county for a portion of the cost of major traffic projects.
5. Extension of the building program of the University of California at Los Angeles.
6. Revision of the inequitable and antiquated tax system of California.
7. Correction in rewriting the State Constitution of the present unjust system of reaportionment.

JUDGE CHARLES E. HAAS
Judge Haas is meeting with phenominal success in his campaign. A committee of one thousand men have been organized into a working committee for Judge Haas. He is addressing on an average of ten meetings a week. He has lived in Los Angeles 46-years and is a product of California schools and colleges. state cottoners' organization, which was an honor given him for constructive service to that group of business men.
The duties of the office of coroner consist in the holding of inquests to determine the cause of all deaths in Tulare county, except those resulting from natural causes. The coroner, in his official capacity, conducts all inquests and makes the necessary investigations and subpoenas all necessary witnesses at such hearings. The public administrator, in his official capacity, handles, in the superior court, all estate matters where no heirs of the decendent reside within the state of California, and in so doing handles money and property of all kinds, nature and description.

STUDY THE ISSUES!
Our sincere advice is for the people in political campaigns
is to, keep an open mind hear all arguments, read up on all
auestions and decide for yourself men or measures for’ which
you will vote. Do this and you will be performing your duty as
an American citizen. |
ere remains only a-few days in which all citizens can
qualify to vote at the August primaries. If for any reason you
fail to perform this duty, there is:a question mark always, as to
whether or not you are worthwhile as a citizen, It is the boun-
den; duty you owe to yourself to put on all the habilaments of
warfare that you may perform your part as an American citi-
zen! If you fail in this particular you are but a “dub.”

PATRONIZE HOME TRADE_ ie |
a /Some residents evidently do not realize to how great ar
extent they are hurting home trade by occasionally ordering
goods from mail-order houses, judging from remarks that have
been made since the California Eagle started the campaign
against cut-of-town trading.
\“What difference does it make,” one resident remarked,
of I send a few dollars to mail-order houses every now and
then?”
Were her particular case the only one of its nature in the
city, it would make but little difference, but individual cases in
the aggregate do make a great deal of difference. She is only
one of hundreds who are doing the same thing she is doing,
and, added together, the amounts have been. estimated to total
thousand of dollars each month. It is the small buyers that
keep|the mail-order houses going. While we have no way of
knowing what the mail-orders average in any particular house,
yet is is safe te say that the sum is only a few dollars.
The $2.98 you send away today is not much in itself, but
when it is pooled with hundreds of other like amounts it makes
a substantial sum. That $2.98 or 69 cents, or however moa
the amount may be, is a very important matter in every mail. |
order house. The emall sums form by far the greatest part of
the millions cf dollars of mail-order business done in this coun
try every year: |
So spend ycur $2.98’s with local merchants, If you do|
that, you wiM not only be helping them and your city; but will
alco be, helping yourself by keeping more money in circulation
here. If you spend your $2.98 here, you stand a chance of get-
ting a part of it back some day, but if you send it away the en-
tire sum is taken out of local circulation.
In itr’ campaign against out-of-town buying, the California
Eagle|has called on local merchants to advertise their goods
more extensively, so that the purchasing public in Los Angeles |
will be in a better position to buy at home. |

In the attainment of solid, ‘well-founded success there has

The educational department of San Francisco has mapped out a very
elaborate building programme. Millions, of dollars have been. appropri-
atech for the building of new and moder schools. The George Washing-
ton High School will cost, approximately, $1,500.000, one million five
hundred thousand dollars, and will be among the finest in the country.
It is said, without successful contradiction, thatthe public schools of Cali-
fornia are of the best: either in the teaching personel. which boasts a
high standard, or school equipment. Thesyouths of Califotnia need have
anv excuse for being illiterate. Every facifity for the obtaining of an edu-
‘cation, in every branch of knowledge, is piven them. The public schools
are the ‘melting pots” for the offspring of our cosmopolitan population,

History is always absorbing, so here is a heretofore unpublished photo snapped at Wrigley's famous channel swim Jan. 15, 1927, when the Eagle Sports Editor was the only representative of a colored newspaper among some 325 white sports editors and writers present. On board the Avalon converted into a press ship he took photos of these swimmers and radiogrammed news of the great contest as all day they followed the 100 hard striving mermen and mermaids over the 26 miles of choppy, bitter cold water.
The girl in the photo above was taken out of the water exhausted. Through the long years the Eagle has always been on the job in big sports events.
At last Max Baer that sensational Oakland heavyweight who has been thrilling the northern fans with a series of sensational knockouts will invade the southern "front" next Tuesday night at the Olympic Auditorium.
His opponent will be the hard hitting local head-liner, Les Kennedy, who also has won many victories here the past year. In one o'f these when Les was rapidly making a "rep", he boxed "foxy" John Lester Johnson down at Wilmington Bowl, and the veteran John, stamped him as the read goods. With new interest aroused over the splendid card last week when Goldie Hess won the Pacific Coast lightweight title from Johnny Lamar this bout promises to draw equally as Matchmaker Wad Wadhams is backing it up with a good supporting card.

Thompson Loses 4th July Bout to Corbett
Thompson Loses 4th July Bout to Corbett
Local fans and friends are still aglast at what they consider disaster which happened to their idol, Young Jack Thompson, last Friday, July 4th at Ewing Field San Francisco.
Before a crowd of 18,000 spectators many of them from here, Jack lost the decision plainly according to the check-up by sports writers present and the referees ruling. His opponent the unorthodox and dangerous south paw, Young Corbett got the decision and acclaim as leading contender.
As this makes the third win over Thompson his followers fear that a meeting for the title, plans for which are being rushed, will end in the loss of the crown only a month old by the only American Negro champion in the game. Confidence of Thompson before the battle and the assertions of Watson and Burns that he had laid out a plan by which Thompson formerly the veteran trainers protege would fathom Corbett's style and stop him had Avenue betters busy gobbling up the 10 to 7 Corbett money which flooded Spring Street. Reports that Jack was stale, hold out hopes that by a long building up process he may be in prime shape for their next meeting probably in September.

Before the ten-round boxing law was passed in California four bouts were the order of local rings and many a sensational battle was fought within the sixteen minutes necessary for the four chapters of "stop and go," legalized assault.
Fighters threw all they had into those few rounds, purses were good, more fighters had a chance on the cards, and grew so accustomed to going at top speed that when they journeyed to eastern, 10 or 15 round rings, they banged away the whole distance just as in the abbreviated matches.
The fans got a run for their money and there were more knockouts than in longer bouts. Because of the big success his first revival of the four round game had last Saturday night, Carlo Curtis "Main Street House of Action" promoter will hold cards of 7 four round bouts all through the summer.
