TEPER E RE
A FEW DAYS: ago white passin
along on the Sidewalk with an ov
casional glimpse af the past but a
most wholly concentrated on a mor
hopeful political future, 1 was acco:
ted by a friend, who addressed me ii
this fashion: “Well X guess you ar
for Rolph for governor, now?" Pray
why? said 1 :
—Because Boh Shuler is for him
—I don't get your drift, what hav
I to do with Bob Shuler being for
him?
—Bob Shuler was for Fitts, and s¢
were you. =
“It matters not how straight the
gate,
How charged with punishment the
seqoll;
Iam the Captain of my Fate,
Tam the Master of my Soul.”
It matters not how diversified cor-
tain individuals opinions may be, oc-
casions arise when their. mental
focuses hit the sdme slant, as was
the situation referred to by my friend
in the Fitts for Governor campaign.
This is the fir:t time we have spoken
directly on this point, and would not
do so now if it were not that it is a
case of “Truth Crushed to Earth.”
Among the colored anti-Fitts pro-
Ponents during the closing episode of
the August 26 primary election, the
prime issue was “Don't vote for Fitts,
for a vot fog Fitts means a vote for
Bob Shuler.” “If Fits is elected,
said they, Shuler will run the State
government. -
To our mind this was an unjust con
clusion in that as far as we were able
to discern, there was no direct re-
lation between Mr. Fitts. and Mr.
Shuler, other than the fact that the
Fighing Parson seems to have as-
sumed the rent of cleaning |
up the town, and because Mr. Fitts as |
District. Attorney tas demonstrated |
a fearlessness -in dealing with law-
breakers without regagd to their po-
litical, ‘civié or”financial standing, ‘as
far as we are able to see this, and
this alone, jwas the only connecting
link between the District Attorney as
candidate for governor and Rev. Shu-
ler.
Of course, My. Fitts was running
for governor and-it was not expedient
for him to go out of his way to tell
Bob Mhuler that because of the fact
that his colored following would ob-
ject, he would have to ask him to stop
“yelling” for him over the radio, and
what was true of Mr. Fitts in this
case was our selfsame predictament.
We were for Fitts for Governor be-
cause in our opitiion he alone had
shown a willingness to accord our
Race a square deal.
BOB SHULER
REV. SHULDR, in keeping with: our
diagnose of his case, believes in
God and in the brotherhood of white
men. Unfortunatzly his psychology
of race relations is such that it seems
that according to his belief God did
not intend that black and white men
should occupy the same berths in re-
ligious, social and civie affairs, how-
»ver, Bob has declared that he does
not believe in lynching or mob
violende.
Ta order to get right on the Racé
question, Mr. Shuler needs to do a
little more of thé right sort’ of pray-
ing; and on the other hand, we as a
group, can’t help Mr. Shuler to get
four-square right by ‘hating him: If
we want fair-play we must practice
fair play in thought, word and deed.
Bob Stitler is not all bad, he has done
much good in this city by calling at-
tention to some low acts in high
places, and we veritably believe that
in ime he Will get the right slant on
fhe Race question. Help him with
your thoughts.

The American Sonsul at Torreon,
Mexico, has been instructed to investi-
| gate allegations that an American Ne-
gro being held for trial charged with

Tires of Waiting; Leaves
By ANP.
Nashville, Tenn. Sept. 24—When
physicians ‘at the General Hospital
here Saturday night arrived at the
operating room to dress a wound ir
Eugene Compton's leg, they discover.
ed that their patient had left the oper-
ating table and the hospital.
Several hours later police officers
discovered Compton at his home and
were informed by him that he got
tired of waiting for the doctors and
left. The officers, however, have a
sneaking suspicion that fear of arrest
had something to do with Compton
getting tired.
Compton and James Brown had en:
gaged in a knife battle, in which‘ both
were wounded. Comptbn rushed to
the police station and asked that
Brown be arrested and in the mean-
time was carried to the hospital
While there, another group of offi-

Segregation Bill Passed
in Nashville
i Se oe ere A Oe
Nashville, Tenn.,-Sept. 24—An_ os-
dinance providing ‘that Negroes and
whites frequenting pool rooms, theat-
ers and other indoor amusement places
must be separated by a distinet floor,
was passed here by the city’ council
Wednesday.
The ‘ordinance was introduced by
Councilman «Elkin, who declared that
the bill had the approval of at least
94 per cent of the citizéns of both
races, but cid not substantiate his
statement by evidence. After the first
reading of the bill it was passed unani-
mously.
Councilman Elkin stated that he had
been inspired to. present the bill by a
growing condition of Negroes and
whites mingling freely in Negro pool
rooms. Citizens in those districts in
which the places were located, had
complained! about this inter-mingling
of the racial groups and. had urged
him to. take steps to stop it,
Several raids ‘for vagrants loitering
in the Negro pool rooms have resulted
in the arest of many white men who
were found frequenting the places and
engaging in games with their coloree!
fellow-citizens, "This proved embar=
assing to the whites who operate busi-
yess places in the same section and po-
lice were urged to keep whites out of
Negro places. There was no need to
pass the law to keep Negroes out of
the places operated for whites as they
were never permitted to enter, except
by the rear door and then on business,
Despite the statement of Council-
man Elkin, the growth of Jim-Crow-
ism in this city, which boasts of. sev-
eral colleges and one medical college,

OBITUARIES
Miss Josephine Louise Selina McDonald was born in Santa Ana, Calif. January 2nd, 1908. She died 5:30 Monday morning at the age of 22. Miss McDonald came to Pasadena with her family in 1924. She was a member of the Friendship Baptist and took an active part in the different church functions. She played the violin in the choir. She taught Sunday School for three years. She was connected with various auxiliaries of the church. Even in extra church activities Miss McDonald was always rendering service. Miss McDonald was highly esteemed by young and old alike. But, this admiration did not confine itself to church circles but even spread to her everyday life. The fact that she was a Vice-President of the Southern California Alumni Association speaks in itself of how well her associates recognized her ability.

NOISY FIVE
Have you heard the Noisy Five? If not you have missed something. This group of musicians present one of the most unique ensembles that has visited the coast. They hail from Waco, Texas, and they surely do play. One plays a bass viol, one a wash board; one a graphite horn; one a guitar, and one plays violin. Oh yes, I forgot to mention the cello that has been converted into something that takes on the dual nature of a guitar and a mandoline. The group do not plan to remain in Pasadena, but maybe they can be persuaded.
CORA MORROW
Mrs. Cora Laverda Morrow has been appointed a teacher's position in the Jefferson Evening High School. For the past year or so Mrs. Morrow has been assisting Mrs. Florence Marie Brawley who has been on the regular teaching staff for several years.

The news of Mrs. Morrow appointment comes as a bit of pleasant news to her host of friends. She is qualified and deserving of the position.

"One source of enormous loss to the Woolworth stores is the three branch stores located on the south side of Chicago, where the arrogant and unfair employment policy of the company has alienated the patronage of the colored buyers, who are supporting the community picket on the three stores. These three stores have sustained losses estimated at $2,000 per week since June 7, while the other Woolworth stores in the city have also been suffering a loss in colored patronage."

Feeling keenly the need of a panacea for our industrial ills in the State of California, there has been perfected in the City of Los Angeles an organization known as the Industrial Council. The purpose of this organization is to encourage Negro business for Negroes, by Negroes and to call especial attention to the fact that there are stores in Los Angeles that depend almost entirely upon Negro patronage for support and yet refuse to employ a single Negro. The Council will present its Constitution and By-Laws to th epublic Sunday afternoon, October 19 at the Tabernacle Baptist church at which time the people are invited to be present.
Of course, while the management of the California Eagle led out in bringing to the attention of the people of Los Angeles the need of such an organization, its motive is unselfish and it desires that there should be one voice for all the people at all times. Every forward looking Negro citizen is urged to come forth and take his place in the Industrial Council for better economic conditions in this commonwealth.
A NEGRO PREACHER
AMONG THEM
A FEW DAYS AGO when Dr. Stephen S. Wise, Rabbi of the Free Synagogue of New York City named America's ten foremost religious leaders, among them was our own Dr. Mordecai W. Johnson, who is president of Howard University, Washington, D. C.
The ten men he has chosen, it is explained, are thought by Dr. Wise to combine the virtues of "aggressive interest in social problems; forward-looking interpretation of religious creeds; enmity to Chauvinism and all doctrines that divide rather than unite men, and, above all, simplicity in personal life, which carries ideals into reality."

The committee appointed by the Baptist Ministers Union carried out its well arranged program Monday at the Y. M. C. A. Rev. Dr. W. R. Carter and Prof. Green arranged for the address, and the other members for the dinner. Dr. Moore with demonstrative gesticulations, gave brethren of the Alliance remarkable reminiscences of his early career in the Ministry. Those of us who remember Dr. Moore in those days, were amazed at his unabated resourcefulness, clarity, and agility. The address though humorous was nevertheless earnest and helpful, and was received with oelight and gratitude by all who heard it.

Another day of Joy, and gladness at this Church, last Sunday.

Our choir, assisted by our brother Lewis gave us rich music, and songs. A good offering was taken for the Tribe, and Bro. and Sister Price were happy, and so was Deacon Henry.
At night Dr. Prowd told of events at the Chicago Convention, which were received with appreciation. Rev. Bro. Green gave a splendid report of his mission to the Western Baptist Association, concerning our position as a Church, observing Baptist principles, and doctrine. Rev. Green received the just approval of his actions.
We had appreciable offerings all day. Come on on time this Sunday, and come praying for a blessing. Come with some friends. We welcome everybody.

10,000 Children Examined at Free Clinic
(Bv A. N. P.)
Columbia, S. C., Sept. 24—The wisdom of establishing the Columbia Clinic for Children, was shown here recently in the report which shows that 3,800 children was examined and 800 were vaccinated during the first month of operation. The clinic was established by Dr. Matilda Evans, after she had made a survey of conditions prevalent among the children of the group. Dr. Evans, enlisted the aid of prominent business men of both faces and the clinic was opened, with a full staff of physicians cooperating with her. The examination of the large number of children revealed some startling information as to health conditions among the children. Out of each 100 children examined Dr. Evans says 90 per cent had infected tonsils and decayed teeth. 4 per cent had cur-

In speaking of the work of the clinic, Dr. Evans said:
"The health conditions among our own people in the city are alarming. I was distressed to find so many children under weight, under nourished and actually suffering for the lack of some treatment that would give them better health.
"Before we were able to set up our work we had to educate people up to the idea and need of having such an institution. How well this was done has been indicated in the support we have received. Already friends have paid the rent for two months, donated furniture and other equipment and have assured us that in the near future we may be able to add a day nursery to our program."
Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce Approves Water Bonds
The Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce is on record as approving the request of the Board of Water and Power Commissioners that the City Council place a $13,300,000 power bond issue on the November 4th ballot.
In its recommendation the Chamber of Commerce favors the recent change in the power bond program which reduced by more than five and one half millions the original set up, it was stated by officials of the City-owned Bureau of Power and Light.
Items eliminated from the power bond issue as originally outlined are those providing for construction of a transmission line from Owens Valley and of the power plants on Big Pine Creek.

on several occasions visited the Old

there is something wrong and wonder

PRESSING ONWARD
The battle for economic freedom is going on as never before. The group is sensing as never before the preachments which we have advanced for the betterment of our economic status along all of the various lines of effort; "Don't spend your money where you can't work," is the slogan which is going forth with telling effect. Organized movements such as the Industrial Council, are making an intensive as well as intelligent survey of conditions, and the people are rallying as never before for the betterment of economic conditions and eventual freedom. We adjure our people to join forces as never before and be a part and parcel of this militant army, which has enlisted in this campaign for justice and the square deal and finally share in its victory.
GIVE US A SHOW DOWN!
In our last issue we presented an editorial with the caption "Smoke Screen." In a general way we mentioned that in our opinion, the hue and cry regarding a certain colored politician was but a smoke screen to the real issue. We wrote those lines for obvious reasons. The principal one was that which to our mind was the unjust inuendo cast on one, though unnamed. It was an open secret who this politician was. There were two men and it could have been either
PUT HIM ON THE LINE
Now then since they have brought this mess from Hollywood and essayed to dump it on Central avenue. Our clientile insist on a show down and they want this thing exposed. If there is any politician who has proved direlect to his trust the people want to know JUST WHO THAT POLITICIAN IS, we believe they are entitled to this information.
NAME the MAN and we will put him on the spot. If he is proven guilty we will denounce him as we would any other crook. What the people want is Justice, pure and simple, and as they have been accused, and the section in which they live in large numbers is being forever flaunted to the breezes with sordid and unwholesome charges. They are tired of it, and from now on will call for a show down.
The people and this publication join in to ask Mayor Porter, who is that colored politician to whom he refers in that Walkup mess, who was so alive a week ago and now seems to have faded out as we predicted it would?
However, we stand fairly and squarely for the show down and feel the same should be forthcoming for the future guidance of our people. To dispel doubt and suspicion and finally to "do justice unto all people, as we would that the same justice be done unto us."
THE MEASURE OF A MAN
We are reproducing an editorial clipped from the Hollywood Daily Citizen, which no doubt will be of more than passing interest at this time. While we do not consider the subject matter of great merit, we do consider the fact of the wholesome, and willing recognition which the talented editor of the Citizen will give to the genius of mankind.
While the editorial is headed "BOSSES," it is not to our liking. Kings and Bosses with us are tabooed. We reproduce the article simply for the elucidation and edification of Eagle readers:
BOSSING
Wherever students of politics gather these days there is much discussion of the question of who is Mayor Porter's boss.
Some there are to declare that Reverend Shuler bosses the Mayor on everything of importance.
Others there are to express the belief that O. T. Johnson Jr. is the real boss—as a result of the time he has spent with the Mayor in engineering his schemes.
Others insist that Hugh Macbeth, able colored attorney, is the genius who exercises most influence in the Mayor's official acts. In fact, some change that Macbeth is the Kent Parrot of the Porter administration.
Everyone is entitled to his own opinions. Here are a few of our own, subject to change and amendments as further enlightment and understanding may warrant.
Mayor Porter sincerely believes that he is his own boss, and that what concessions he makes to any person, or what ideas he accepts, are made or accepted only after a careful review in his own mind has convinced him of the wisdom of his acts. Mayor Porter does believe in playing politics constantly. Those who would manipulate him have impressed him with the certainty of a recall and, through the fear of a recall, have proceeded to lead him into doing things which tend to bring about a recall.
Reverend Shuler doubtless wields a great influence with Mayor Porter. The Mayor recognizes the value of the Shuler radio and desires always to please Reverend Shuler. But Reverend Shuler, we believe, is desirous of seeing the Mayor give a creditable administration and would help the Mayor to that end if he could.
The influence of O. T. Johnson, Jr., with the Mayor, great as it has been, has probably been confined in the main to Johnson's plan to control the water and power department, to place Johnson's man in charge of both enterprises and to limit the progress and growth of the power department in accordance with the plans of its enemies.
This fellow, Hugh Macbeth, isn't so easy for us to interpret. Our limited acquaintance with him in the past brought a very favorable impression and a belief that while he held much political power among the colored voters and desired to add to that power, he was seeking to help the Mayor.
There are others to assure us that Macbeth has been of no help to the Mayor if the Mayor desires a police department free from the domineering of politicians.
Macbeth first sold the Mayor on the value of his support in the election. Then he sold him on an idea of curtailing vice in the Central Avenue colored district, where the corruptionists and grafters had been feeding for years. Macbeth got the virtims of the protection sellers together and assured them, it is said, that they were better off if they refused to pay any protection money and took their chances on occasional arrest, relying on his influence with Mayor Porter, to secure a square deal and nothing more. Macbeth's announced theory is that vice is certain to exist but that there will be much less of it if no protection money is paid, and there will be a better police department if it isn't fed with the money from protection-payers.
If Macbeth has become a power in the conduct of the police department: it is logical considering the influence and position he has occupied in Mayor Porter's-administration.
But this writer would want a little more information than we have at present, to lead us to express an opinion that Macbeth has sought to use his influence to the detriment of his city. While one is considering political bosses, he shouldn't overlook Councilman Robert L. Burns. The control of a majority of his fellow councilmen is not the extent of Burn's influence. Through his control of a majority vote in the council it is very easy for him to keep the Mayor under considerable obligation to him. Burns should not be overlooked by those who are interested in learning what forces are directing Mayor Porter's administration.
And every citizen should be interested in learning, as accurately as possible, about the forces back of his city government. In fifteen months the Mayor has given evidence that he is lacking in executive ability and understanding of the problems
If You Fail To Read---THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE---You May Never Know It Happened
of government, that he is weak and easily subject to manipulation by the schemers.
His government is going to be influence in the main by the opinions or desires of others.
Since this is the fact, one cannot help hoping that the Mayor will turn to the good forces that are extremely desirous of helping him out of his difficulties. There are many good citizens in Los Angeles who are the Mayor's friends, are anxious to see the Mayor make good and are willing to help him
If the approach to him must be made through politics, however, and through appeals to his vanity, the chances are not very good that the Mayor is going to make use of the valuable aid which is his to command.
COMMENTS
W. J. WHEATON
The following is an excerpt from an editorial appearing in a San Francisco Daily paper. Judge Daniel A. Simmons of Florida has THIS to say about capital punishment:—During the almost eighteen years I have been a circuit court judge to Florida, I have sentenced nineteen persons to the electric chair. I sentenced them to die because I had no alternative, but am bitterly and unalterly opposed to the state going into the slaying business as a means of punishment. Of the nineteen persons I sentenced to die, eight escaped the electric chair. Th eleven who were executed were all NEGROES."
"Only the poor, the friendless, the unimportant are forced to pay the extreme penalty. Murderers need only have small wealth or slight social position to escape the chair or the noose." From the observation of the judge the public is made fully conscious of the farcical dispensing of JUSTICE in the South. The life of the Negro is a negligible thing. He is supposed to have neither WEALTH OR SOCIAL POSITION. His life is taken on the slightest pretense. For him there IS NO JUSTICE. In pleading for the abolition of capital punishment Judge Simmons has shown the prejudical barbarity which mobs lynches and burns, in that section of the country. Negroes who may be charged with the most trivial offense of the law.
Sesretary of the Interior Ray Lyman Wilbur after driving the silver spike in connecting the spur of railroad with the Union Pacific announced that the Boulder Dam project would hereafter be known as the HOOVER DAM. To many Californians the question is: Why the Hoover Dam? With all due regard to the President and to the men who would promote his interest; it is a slight to the men who fought valorously against odds and brought about the final success. To Representative Phil D. Swing, of the 11th District and United States Senator Hiram W. Johnson should be given the honor and credit. The great light made by them in battling the Power Trust and standing as a stone wall against the machinations of private interests deserves pretetuation. For more than seven years those two doughty warriors of the people's rights gave the best in them. The Dam may bear some other name than that of Boulder Canyon; the credit of bringing a vision to a realism may be urped by others, but no usurpation of credit for the achievement will ever make the electorate of California forget the part that Phil D. Swing and Hiram W. Johnson played in the ultimate possibility which made BOULDER DAM.

Here is one Negro man who deserves the highest commendation. A Phillip Randolph, organizer of the Pullman Porters and Maids Union is the heroic character in the following story. Two officials of big corporations were seated in the smoking compartment of the car discussing the economic situation when the talk switched to the struggle being made by the porters and maids for increased wages. "The porters and maids will win the fight and it will cost the Pullman Company near $9,000-000 the year," said the official of that company. "We called in the leader of the Union and told him that he could write out his own check, and this is what he said, 'As slaves, you bought and sold my mother and father but me; I am not for sale!' "I never had a 'nigger' to talk to me like that before," he commented. Phillip Randolph; WE SALUTE YOU! It is the dawning of a better day when we can have such leadership. We have been surfeited with men who have grafted on the credulity of the Race. Fraternal organizations; Political demagogues; Religious charlatans and miscellaneous cheats have exacted their toll. The act which is accredited to the leader of the porters and maids union stands in such relief against the background of selfishness that we regain lost hope and feel encouraged to renew the fight for racial betterment.

There is one racial activity in the city of San Francisco that deserves the helpful co-operation of the community. The Booker T. Washington Community Center is offering a service that is hard to compute in the value of dollars and cents. The Center is the medium of a moral uplift highly beneficial to the young people, and as well a place where parents can consult on the problems arising, which are brought about by the modern trend of the youthful mind. The recreations are under supervised but censored. Worthwhile training in the manual arts and choral music cultural ethics are supervised by the executive secretary, Mrs. Ethel Clark and her able assistant, Miss Dorothy Fisher. Other volunteer assistants give of their time to forward the movements, but instead there appears to be a decided trend otherwise. Such an attitude is hard to understand. Anything that offers wholesome amusement as well as moral surroundings should have unstinted support. Churches are open one night in seven, unless for some political or mercenary reason. Young people must have an outlet for excess energy; rightly directed it becomes an asset. We believe in churches when they are active in community betterment. They can not be of betterment by one day in seven activity. The sermon delivered on Sunday is liable to be forgotten before leaving the edifice, much less remembered 'till the following one. Let every one fall In and aid and support the Center as should be. The saint, sinner, layman and preacher; will have ample reward in the improvement of the boys and girls.
We were apprized of the fact that Los Angeles supports four of the new fangled propositions termed "Pee Wee" or miniature golf, and that said propositions were operated for the sole amusement of the "Colored Folk." We were informed pridefully, that on the nights of play receipts amounted to $800 and $1000 dollars. We were not surprised from whence that money came nor the final depository. The thing that astounded us was, how in heaven could we be so devoid of common sense as to squander that money where there would be no beneficial results. When you have spent your last nickle trying to knock a little ball through or over some hazzard there has not been one thing accomplished to relieve your own economic condition. And that condition is a serious one. The fellow who builds something for your amusement enriches himself and impoverishes you. He knows your shortcomings and will enter your community to profit by your gullibility. If you have to squander your money why not do it among yourselves. For squander you will. Should assistance be asked to accomplish some commercial undertaking it would be an impossibility to raise five dollars much-less five hundred. Oh well! What's the use: We will learn some day.

SPECIAL ARTICLES
There was something funny in the attitude of the person who boasted of the Golph for the "sole amusement of the Colored People." They had just finished on the evil tendency of racial segregation. The topic of racial segregation had been one of the high spots in the conversation, "It is a deplorable incident in our government," quoth he. Having in mind the sole amusement for Colored people" we remarked casually, "perhaps we encourage it." If not why do we patronize anything set apart for us specially? We make a special notice when some one, not Negro, sets aside a playhouse, sport amusement, or what not and says that "This is for you." It is taken as a matter of course that you will accept without question. We do: When you make protest against some discrimination these objects of self segregation are pointed out to us. Consciously or not, we segregate ourselves politically, socially and religiously. Some of us would segregate the race in the matter of educational facilities. The latter is forced in some sections and it is a hard cational facilities. The latter is forced in some sections and it is a hard Sometimes it is our belief that "too much 'Negro' is a hindrance rather than a help. Let's have less discrimination on our part."
Prohibition has become one of the political problems as well as an issue. When first established it, prohibition, was termed a moral issue to be dealt with as such and kept free from politics. It is due to the fanatical views of ardent Prohi's that it is an issue in politics. They sought to coerce legislation and threatened to defeat aspirants for political office who did not conform to their wishes. Now Senator Brookhart Iowa, seeks to make a sectional issue of it. In making an appeal for enforcement he says, "The West and the South are united in opposition to the issue raised by Governor Roosevelt, N. Y. for the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment. Since this issue is being put forward by scions of Wall Street, it furnishes an additional and powerful reason for a cooperative action between the West and South. Prohibition in the South is for the Negro only. White persons have all that they want, and they drink it openly. We are for any reform that would better condition

When you're almost right you're wrong. Who was it that said "Be sure you're right then go ahead?" Who ever it was, was right. So many of us have the tendency to be, almost right. We take snap judgment. This applies to religion as well as politics. Our poor soul was "damned" because the body did not use the physical exertion to carry it to a church every Sunday. If the God with which we commune in the great temple of Nature will condemn us for not sitting under the voice of some mediocre preacher! Oh well! What's the use

The Labor Government of Great Britan is studying a proposal to set aside territory in British East Africa for the Negro race. The territory in question is about one quarter the size of the United States and the domain is made up of Kenya and Uganda, which are British possessions, and Tanganyika, a former German possession under mandate of Great Britian since the World War. The purpose is to name a High Commissioner who will be the chief adviser to the Secretary for the Colonies on all native questions and legislate and administer on such subjects as railway, telegraphs, ports, harbors, and like insular affairs. He will have the naming of his staff which will three officers, and seven members for each of the three colonies. It is planned to have native Africans, Indians and Arabs in addition to white men on the commission. There is an old saying about "The Mills of the Gods grinding slowly" and in this instance it seems to be grinding with sureness. A native representation will insure against a repetition of such atrocities as was charged to the Belgians and the German. In it can be seen the ultimate reclamation of the native land. It may take a couple of centuries, but it will come. The native representation backs up a government claim that Kenya is primarily an African territory and the interest of the African native must be paramount.
An acquaintance of the writer was in despair because efforts made in behalf of betterment in the community was neither understood or appreciated. The efforts being made come from a sincere desire to help. Many things detrimental have been acted and said to disparag the work. "THE MORE BRILLIANT THE LIGHT: GREATER THE SWARM OF GNATS." we said
THE STREET WOMAN
Whatever advantages the Street Woman may have over her married sister, her lot still must be a bleak, soul-scrumbling one.
The Street Woman is branded as so much SOCIAL REFUSE, so much MORAL LEPROSY.
But should she, only, be blamed for her bad reputation? Do not upper-strata men, as well as the base-born, haunt her domain?
The Street Woman is the PRODUCT of a social scheme that has a flaw somewhere in its construction.
The Street Woman is a VICTIM of circumstances. Quite often inherited tendencies handicap. And who is responsible for this heredity?
The Street Woman is a BREAK-WATER, according to some. It is she who is forced to stem the flood-tide of male passion and lust in order that more sheltered and favored women be protected in their virtue.
The Street Woman is a STRANDED SHIP that drifts rudderless and sailless over life's storm-smitten deep. The keel is damaged, the rigging broken, and ere many moons the dismantled craft will be lashed to pieces by terrific mountains of water, and lowered to its briny, desolate place of extinction by the very weight of its wreckage—and the pull of a mighty suction.
The Street Woman is a LOST TRAVELER whom night has overcould shine to show the way home. taken and whom cruel animals have devoured before the light of dawn The Street Woman is a SORE SPOT on the body humanity. And sores are not cured by scratching and picking, but by administering proper care and treatment. The Street Woman is a TOOL. And when tools are worn out they are thrown aside.
The Street Woman is often a DISAPPOINTED LOVER. Some male imp in angel garb has entered the inner chamber of her heart, robbed it, and left it broken!
The Street Woman is SOME MOTHER'S CHILD!
The life of this daughter-of-shame surely is not a happy one. Yet is her life any more black in the eyes of reason and conscience than that of her married kin whose sole claim to virtue lies in the protection she receives from legal sanction?
The Street Woman is BARTE
The Street Woman is a PART OF THE HUMAN BODY. and when a part is afflicted the other parte can be
I behold the future. Then this unfortunate daughter of heaven will not be compelled to bow before the devil-god Passion. But until the millenium appears she must be made the victim of a cruel system that she has no control over.
The Street Woman is A WOMAN—gone astray, but Tomorrow is around the corner with justice in its wake. And then—then the Street Woman will have disappeared.

Golden State Makes Promotions in Los Angeles District
In keeping with the well grounded policy to serve policy-holders and the public in the most efficient manner, he officers of the Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Company announce the following promotions in the Home Office district, effective October 1, 1830.
Mr. Clayton Russell, one of the most promising young men in the state, will be transferred to the Monthly Conservation Department, where he will assume charge of the conservation of monthly business.
Mr. W. T. Martin who has been in the service of the Company since its organization, will be assigned to the duties of conserving Ordinary life business, working under the supervision of Mr. E. J. Johnson.
Mr. Jefferson Brown, who has proven himself to be a dependable Company representative, will be promoted to the position of Assistant Superintendent of the Monthly Department.
It is encouraging to note the splendid opportunities given to qualified men and women of our race by this rapid growing institution.
Mr. Russell has been in the employ of the Company for the past three years, and starting from the bottom rung, has steadily advanced in insurance education until he is fast becoming one of the Golden State's outstanding service men.
Mr. Martin who is a veteran of the staff is well-known and liked. He has proven himself faithful and efficient and the Company feels that in transferring him to his new position it will be improving its service.
Mr. Jefferson Brown, who is very popular in Y. M. C. A., activities and is connected with various religious and civic affairs, has developed to the point where he will have an opportunity to apply his training in leadership to the advancement of business by the performance of the duties of his new position, Assistant Superintendent of the Monthly Department, Home Office district.
SUPERINTENDENT MAKES
TEMPORARY EXCHANGE
The Golden State, as further evidence of its efficient system, occasionally shifts district superintendents for a week or ten days at a time to allow them to broaden their experience and increase their enthusiasm. Just recently Mr. B. N. Hunigan, Superintendent of the Northern California district, headquarters in Oakland, California, exchanged with Mr. Edgar Johnson of the Home Office district and the results were very beneficial. The success which the Golden State has achieved as an insurance Company, lies chiefly in the fact that it has never lost an opportunity to improve its insurance standing with the public by rendering the best possible service. The high standard and efficiency of its many agents as well as other employees are constantly mentioned on every hand by the public in tones of praise and appreciation.
Detroit's New Mayor Thanks Negroes For Loyal Support
New York, Sept., 19.—Frank Murphy, judge of the Recorders Court in Detroit at the time of the Sweet case, who resigned from the bench in order to become the successful candidate for mayor, has written a letter to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People expressing his thanks for the loyal support given him by colored voters.
At the time Judge Murphy announced his candidacy, Walter White, Acting Secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., who handled the Sweet trials in Detroit for the N. A. A. C. P., wrote a letter commending the spirit of fairness prevalent in Judge Murphy's court and saying in part:
"I am certain that you will have the united support of the colored citizens of Detroit." I know if I were a resident in the city you could certainly count on one ballot
"When I came to Detroit in 1925 at the time of the attack upon the home of Dr. Ossian H. Sweet, the situation was such as to be most discouraging, so far as obtaining an impartial trial for Dr. Sweet and his ten co-defendants was concerned. Those fears dispelled only when we found in your court a most extremordinary degree of even-handed justice, an experience which unfortunately the Negro defendant could duplicate in few courts of law. North or South. I am certain hat you as Mayo will hold to those high principles of justice I saw exemplified in the famous Sweet case."
In his letter of thanks on the primary election, Judge Murphy writes: "Everything came out all right. Your people were as faithful and true as my group could be. They went right out on the firing line for me and stood by me almost to a man."
