Southern Crackers Gets Jolt Of California Justice
VOLUME 43
ON THE SIDEWALK
BY C. A. B.
"Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions in distress for Christ's sake: For when I am weak then am I strong"—2 Corinthians 12:10.
These privilegeds were given neihter to the Jew nor to the Gentle. Nor to any other classification known as the Black or White group, but rather to those who are willing to follow where He leads.
We hear the prophets saying a Savior will be born who will save His people.
The wise men 1930 years ago went out to find the star that would point out the way to the place where the Christ would be born. They saw the star and found the babe, and as He turned His beaming sad eyes upon them they knew that this was the promised Messiah.
They mocked Him and nailed Him to the cross, persecuting him for righteousness sake, and He opened not His mouth except to say Forgive them Father for they know not what they do.
The one step in life in which we may enjoy equality with Christ is our willingness to forbear.
GETTING SOMEWHERE
THE HISTORY of the advancement of the Negro in the United States from days of slavery to his present attainments in Education and Culture is marked by his super-inclination to hold many Conferences and Conventions, a great deal of rejuvenating and much spectacular parading.
Buy up a whole lot of finery and attend the annual "I will arise conference," and you are immediately one of the big muck-a-mucks. It's not so much what you will accomplish in the Conference or how well you are prepared to fill an office, but how bright you shine and how much pull you have with the "brudders and sisters" to the extent that you are elected to fill one of the most important posts.
We have gazed on this panorama of changing scenes and yearning emotions since we first saw the light of day—and as we looked we wondered if ever a Black Moses would arise from the depth of oblivion and lead us out of this wilderness of frivolity into the land of serious thinking.
"WE HAVE FOUND IT"
As we scan the exchanges this week we feel like saying we have found it—For we read that definite plans have been made by the National Equal Rights League and Race Congress for the holding of an open National Colored American Anti-Lynching Congress at which time perhaps the increase in lynching will be discussed and means for curbing the same will be considered.
EASTSIDE MOTHERS CLUB
RE-ORGANIZES
WEDNESDAY WAS a day of great rejoicing for the women of the Eastside who have struggled for years to make this home a success in order that it might serve the crying needs along the line of rescue mission for our girls and destitute women.
This institution has had a hectic struggle to hold its place in the community welfare federation, but on Wednesday at a luncheon under the direction of the women headed by Mrs. Geo. A. Beavers, Jr., and a program arranged and directed by Probation officer Juanita Edwards, a new day dawned for the Eastside Mothers home. Many city officials were present, among whom were the following:
Judge Thos. Ambrose, presiding judge of municipal bench; Judge Caryl Sheldon; Judge Edward Bishop; Judge Hartley Shaw; Chief Roy E. Stechel; Alice Steblin Wells, first police woman; Fred Hall, chief public defender; Flora B. Nelson, deputy public defender; Ida Wells, Deputy prosecutor; Anna Hamilton, policewoman; judge Turney Raymond; Chief Clyde Plummer; and Assemblyman Frederick Roberts.
Many words of encouragement and promised suport were offered by all present, and with Mrs. Z. Osie Smith as supervisor, a bright future is assured the Eastside Home for Destitie Girls.
AT THE POLITICAL BAT
THE EASTSIDE Co-operative Association headed by Mrs. Clarg C. Hulbert closed the November Campaign, Tuesday night at the Saints Home Church at 20th and Hooper with a program featuring most of the candidates up for election.
Vote No On Amendment No.23
The most vicious measure offered to the electors is the Amendment No. 23 which is virtually a license to change our State Constitution at will. This measure is dangerous and would be a menace. Therefore vote against it and persuade everybody else whom you know to do so.
Prominent Business Man Visits Source Of Water and Power Of Los Angeles
Following out a program of the Water and Power Bureau of acquainting the citizens of Los Angeles with the source of the City water supply, a party of men motored to various points directly conected with the water system, a trip occupying three days, Oct. 17th to Oct. 19th, and completing, approximately, a 500 mile drive.
Prominent among the party was L.G. Robinson, Custodian of the Los Angeles County Buildings and directing a janitors force of 178 men and women. Mr. Robinson is probably more generally known as the President of the Angelus Funeral Home 1030 East Jefferson Street. a firm whose progress in the last two years has been nothing short of miraculous. "We are vitally interested," says Mr. Robinson, "in every forward movement and try to serve every civic duty within our power. We owe out success in business in a great measure to the people of Los Angeles could only visualize the gigantic proportions to which the Water Question has arisen and could see the solution that the Bureau of Water and Power has worked out, there would not be a dissenting vote against any request which comes from our Commissions. This trip was an eye-opener. The three days spent way up above the clouds in the mighty Sierra Nevada Mountains were brimful of indents which portrayed the unselfish devotion of the pioneers for the city's welfare and its future development. For the convenience of the people of the great City of Los Angeles, the genius of man has devised a way to utilize nature's gifts. When the sunlight of early Spring divests the mountain peaks of their Winter covering of snow, these engineers are planning to be ready to guide the course of these sparkling waters, through hamlet, village and valley, in order to make the water system of Los Angeles the greatest in the Nation."
The water and power Bureau believes that the greater number of the people of Los Angeles do not grasp the significance of the work which it has to do and that an educational campaign in regard to the water question, with first hand information, is all that i necessary to make them enthusiastic for the Bureau's program.
Titus Alexander in behalf of the bonds, which we all favor because we believe that the carriage of these bonds will benefit the poor people; Dr. H. Claud Hudson, president of the local N. A. A. C. P., who announced the people's victory in the dismissal of Officer Luther Weyant; Assemblyman Frederick M. Roberts, who said that he was ready to make the home base Tuesday; W. H. (Pop) Saunders, representing Sheriff Traeger; Mr. Ritzpatrick spoke for Plummer; Geo. A. Beavers, speaking for the judges except Judge Crawford, and Thompson who spoke in their own behalf; Norman O.

LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1930
TRAEGER FOR SHERIFF
Ever since Sheriff Wm. I. Treger was appointed to his present position we have been one of his strong supporters. His record has been such in his service to all of his constituents that we can not see any good reason why he should not be kept in this office for another term and as a consequence he has our fullest support for re-election, and we are asking our many friends to give their support to Sheriff Treger.
During the primary election at the sheriff's request, in conjunction with Curtis Mosby; we conducted the sheriff's campaign, during which time we covered the greater part of the county. We personally delivered more than 100 addresses, caused many more to be made by Mrs. Corinne Smith, Rev. R. H. Wade, S. Bectel, Chas. Olden, Mrs. C. A. Bass, R. W. Williams and others We had printed and put over the county, 15,000 placards, 20,000 folders and 100,000 tickets. We sent out a fleet of automobiles commanded by trusted men to place this literature. Well known and prominent men and women gathered 4789 pledge cards. Headquarters manned by a competent force addressed, printed post cards the day before the election whom had signed the pledges. On election day each precinct of 107 precints were represented by a worker with literature. Each worker was instructed to bring in the vote of his precinct for the office of sheriff. This count revealed in 101 precincts a vote of more than 4 to one over both Kelly and Plummer. one precinct in Central Gardens came forward with a vote of 18 to one over both of the other candidates. To be exact, the vote was Traeger 128. Kelly 5 Plummer 2. At the election on next Tuesday let the vote show, even better than the primary for to this group especially the election of Sheriff Traeger is essential indeed.
For be it remembered the Sheriff has every eligible of our group employed, and his every act, has at all times been for the square deal for all people and this is all we could ask.
New York. Oct. 22.—In an editorial entitled "A Test of Negro Strength," the New York Daily Mirror, one of New York City's newspapers of widest circulation, backs up the fight which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People made on Judge Parker's confirmation to the Supreme Court, and the fight the N. A. A. C. P. is now making to defeat those senators who voted for Parker, particularly Roscoe C. McCulloch, of Ohio. The editorial reads as follows:
The first repercussion at the polls from the Senate fight which blocked confirmation of John J. Parker as a Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court is likely to come November 4 in Ohio.
Senator. McCulloch, dry. Republican, already hard pressed by Robert J. Bulkley, wet Democrat, faces the probable added deception of most of the State's 150,000 colored voters because he sided with President Hoover and supported Parkey's nomination. The prohibition issue, of course, is the paramount one and there seems to be no doubt that tens of thousands of wet Republicans will vote for Bulkley, but Ohio is normally Republican by 400,000 or more, and it may be that the Negroes will hold the balance of power. The decisive part Negro protests played in beating Parker was a striking example of what solidarity can accomplish. If the Negro voters can now be persuaded to leave their traditional Republican allegiance long enough to punish a U. S. Senator who deserted their cause it will be continuing evidence that they are growing up politically.
The Etude Ethiopian chorus under the excellent direction of Frieta Shaw, with the fine cooperation of Mattie Duckett, as chorus manager, have again scored a tremendous hit.
MISS SHAW
These singers in spite of all obstacles and deliberate knocks from a few jealous members of the race, are soaring to greater heights each day. Bwery knock is a great big boost for the Etude Ethiopians. The chorus just closed the much sought after position of the singing ensemble with the distinguished Mr. Lawrence Tibbett, in his latest picture, "The Southerner," for M. G. M.
MISS DUGKETT
The chorus was such a hit on the lot that it has been engaged to appear on the all-star movie program to be given in Gulver City on November 4.
One of the outstanding features of this ensemble is the fact that, with three exceptions, the ensemble has its original personal. They have been together one year and are planning their annual prom for sometime next month.
The Stude Ethiopian chorus has been called back today to return engagement at the Hal Roach studio.
Proposition Number 10 is an initiative measure amending the California Usury Law. This law was passed originally as an initiative measure in 1918 and can only be amended by an initiative measure submitted to the people. The law when passed was poorly drawn, and it was generally predicted that it would have to be changed. The law as it stands has been the cause of much expensive litigation, and to a great extent has retarded the investment of legitimate capital in home building and industrial enterprise. The amendment "Proposition Number 10" clarifies the law and makes definite procedure for the making of construction loans, and will encourage home building and make jobs.
The proposal makes it impossible for corporation to plead usury. This is the law in New York and many other leading industrial states. The purpose of this provision is to protect invested capital, the investor, and honest borrowers against that type of speculators or promotional corporation that enters into financial agreements and, if unsuccessful, tries to hide behind the Usury Law at the expense of any person who may have advanced money.
The proposal places pawnbrokers and industrial loan companies directly under the regulation of the Legislature. Contrary to the misinformation that has been published and distributed by other sources, the proposition when passed will clear the way for amendment of the Industrial Loan Act, and in this manner will it be possible to regulate all types of small loans, and in effect eliminate the loan shark.
Selfish money lending interests and their influential friends do not wish this proposal to pass, the reason being that they do not wish any change that will bring with it regulation and definite conditions for the borrowing of money.
The present law only show up business and is a joke. It does not help any one except the one who wish to use it as a shield. For those who want money for homes it makes money hard to get, for those of us who need to borrow small amounts it gives no protection. Proposition No. 10 is much better and will help everyone except those money lenders who now profit because there is no control.
Heywood Broun Benefit Proceeds Send $100 For N. A. A. C. P... Activities
New York, Oct. 22—Out of the proceeds from a benefit performance given for the movement to seat the noted columnist, Heywood Broun, in Congress, the treasurer of the Broun. For Congress Non-Partisan Committee, Mcrisr Ernest has sent a check for $100 for the work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, it was announced today.
Two members of the N. A. A. C. P., staff are on the Broun campaign committee, Messrs. J. W. Johnson, secretary and Walter White, acting secretary. The letter of transmittal thanks the Association for the fine cooperation given.
Mr. Broun has been a staunch friend of the N. A. A. C. P., often supporting its efforts in the column he writes which is printed in Bripps-Howard newspapers throughout the United States, and aiding its efforts by his personal presence as well. Last year at the brilliant theatrical benefit given for the N. A. A. C. P., Mr. Broun served as master of ceremonies, his witty and argyrophytic appearances on the stage contributing largely to the success of the occasion.
The Los Angeles Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. in open meting Sunday, October. 12th, 1930, denounced Judge Hartley Shaw and urged his defeat.
Judge Shaw rendered the decision in the Swimming Pool Case which resulted in segregated swimming pools in Los Angeles SHAW MUST BE DEFEATED!!!
Judge William Hazlett Candidate for Re-Election To The Superior Court, Office No.10
Judge Hazlett is a native of Iowa. He was a student in the collegiate department of the State University of Missouri, and a graduate in Law at the State University of Iowa. He practiced law in his native state for three years. Meanwhile he was for three in 1908, where he continued the practive until appointed to the Superior Court in April, 1926, and was elected at the primaries of that year by more than three to one over his opponent to fill the unexpired term of Judge John M. York.
Judge Hazlett practiced law thirty-three years. Meanwhile he was for three terms County Attorney of Pochantos County, Iowa, and six years City Attorney of South Pasadena, California. His practice consisted of general civil work, except when serving as County Attorney, and he was at all time active in the practice.
Of the appeals taken from his decisions to the District Courts of Appeal or to the the Supreme Court, twenty were affirmed and but two reversed. He served eight months as Justice pro-tender of the District Court of Appeal in 1927 and 1928 pursuant to appointments for the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Many cases of great importance have been tried before him in the Superior Court, and his work has been highly satisfactory both to the Bar and the Public. His opinion in his case brought by the Director of Natural Resources of the State against the operators in the Santa Fe Springs Oil Fields was of supreme importance to the oil industry and to the public in the matter of conserving natural gas for public use, and the State of California had the opinion printed as a state document.
He was a law lecturer for seven years in the university law schools. Judge Hazlett is first vice-president of the Iowa Society of Southern California, and president of the Alumni Association of the State University of Iowa in Southern California. He presents his candidacy for reelection to the Superior Court upon his record as a useful citizen, and as a successful lawyer and Judge.
Great was the enthusiasm manl
festated at the monthly meeting of the
Eastside Industrial Association which
held forth at the Tablwacle Church on
last Sunday afternoon.
The program which was in charge of
Mrs. Mae Stafford was one which
was in keeping with the occasion and
brought out the high points in our
struggle for economic freedom. Mrs
Stafford is to be congratulated upon
her splendid contribution for Industrial
and economic progress.
Various subjects were taken up,
discussed, and the greatest enthusiasm
Pascal Guccione who as is the custom in his native heath in the parishes of Louisiana chastised Eva Cooper 19 years, who had lived in Guccione's family in virtual peonage for the past 11 years, by beating her with a razor strop, was found guilty by a jury in Judge Bogues' Court on last Wednesday and was sentenced to pay a $50 fine or spend some days in jail.
The above is an instance which we published in our issue of the 3rd inst., which recounted the fact that Eva Cooper had been a peon for this family for some 11 years. She had worked for the family all of this period of time without any wage to speak of at all.
It is pleasing to note justice is overtaking this individual and the issue will not be completed until the ladies who have interested themselves in this young woman's fight have gone further and make this unregenerated cracker from the Southland pay every cent which is due this young girl.
The ladies present at the hearing and who have taken a keen interest in this case were, Mrs. Clara Hulbert, Mrs. Lucille Bufford, Mrs. Jennie May Palmer, Mrs. Ike Harrison, Mrs. C. D. Robinson and Mrs. C. A. Bass.
Infamous Cotton Club Insults War Veterans
The reported action of the infamous Cotton Nite Club in insulting veterans at a dinner which was scheduled at that club this week is no surprise.
The owner, Frank Sebastian has more than once shown his cloven hoof as one of the prejudiced hateful men when colored citizens were in front. It is such human bienas with prejudiced souls who strive to put up the bars and to insult and humiliate a struggling race.
General rumor is to the effect that this club and its promoter Sebastian is the chief influence in the effort to close Curtis Mosby's Apex Nite club. It is well that he stands out in his true colors and in due time justice and retribution will surely overtake him.
Police Com. Refuses To Reinstate Weyant,,
As a direct result of the movement inaugurated by the N. A. A. C. P. headed by Dr. H. Claude Hudson and aided by the Los Angelus Forum, the Police Commission denied re-institution to Luther Weyant.
It will be remembered Weyant is the officer who shot and killed little Willie Teame, a 17-year-old school boy who ran away from an alley crap game.
He was tried for murder, was acquitted by a prejudiced jury. The people were dissatisfied and appealed to the Police Commission with the above result.
and told of the great strides which the group is making in their goal for economic freedom.
Attorney Mrs. Zepher Ramsey spoke along the line of the law in our every day life for Industry and Trade.
Mr. Talbot recently added to the Slabt force of the Eastern Outfitters was a speaker and he in turn presented the manager of the Eastern Outfitters, who congratulated the Association upon its endeavor for better conditions. Te told of the policy of the company to open up every possible avenue, and praised the work being accomplished by our workers for his company. He also assured the people there was no limit to their advancement as they proved them.

HERO AMONG ELITE
Two-Fisted Contractor is Victor Over Kidnapping Racketeer Foes—Showing Tivoli Theater Sun. and Mon.
George Bancroft, an Italian immigrant, has battled his way to success as a New York building contractor. He hears he may lose a big contract because Stanley Fielos, labor agitator and former gangster, is making trouble. Bancroft beats up Fields in a hand-to hand encounter and gets the contract.
Bancroft decides that he must have social position. Accordingly his lawyer, Lawford Davidson, arranges for him to be a guest at the home of Mary Astor, a social leader.
Claud Allister, Davidson's tailor, outfits Bancroft in a full wardrobe of "ritzy" clothes. He is pleased, and he displays the new apparel at his East side home. David Durand, his motherless son, and the boy's grandmother, Ferike Boros, view the new clothes dubiously. Ferike is afraid her big son will drift away from her.
Bancroft meets Mary at her home. He is enchanted by her beauty. Mary and her husband, Fredric March, have been bickering and a divorce impends in spite of the fact that they too have a small son, Fredric Burke Frederick. Fields learns of Bancroft's romance with Mary, and he plots revenge upon his enemy. He arranges for Paul Fix.

To much socializing, or too early marriage has been the downfall of more colored fighters than could be counted on an adding machine. It is the greatest trouble a manager has with a young prospect, as soon as he gets a few wins in preliminary bouts he is either ready to listen to the call of false friends who urge him to come blink at the dizzy white lights, or he rushes head-iceng into marriage although unable to support himself
IES one of his gang, to become Bancroft's chauffeur.
But Mary now realizes the impossibility of a romance with Bancroft, because of their tar-removed social positions. She tells him she will not see him again. Bancroft, never before baked by anyone, man or woman, devises a scheme which will force her to appeal to him for help. He plans to have Paul Fix kidnap her son, so he can return the boy himself.
BATTLES THE GANG
Fix kidnaps the child and Bancroft gets a frantic call from Marry for help. She promises everything if he will get her boy. But then Bancroft learns that Fix has doublecrossed him and that Fields is in possession of not only Mary's child but Bancroft's as well. Fields gives him a choice; he can take either boy, the other disappears forever. Bancroft sees the great wrong he has done Mary. He decides that his own son will stay in the hands of the kidnappers. The gang sends Mary's boy to her. Then Bancroft takes a chance. He battles the gang in a terrible fight and wins his way out with his own boy.
Bancroft goes to Mary's home to claim her. There he sees that Mary's trouble has re-muted her with March. Remembering her pledge, Mary promises to marry Bancroft. But the big fellow has come to his senses, and he goes back to the east side home with his own son. David.

Miss Curry was well liked by all especially among the movie folks as she had played in a number of plays including Christies" "Lady Fare." Singing was among her varied talents and she leaves a sister who is also a singer and a very highly accomplished pianist.
gratest among colored or Mexican pilgrims the wiser boxers bide their time and remain single so that the troubles of domestic life and uncertainty of income will not detract from their close application to the fight game.

Of a head-strong disposition, twenty volumes of advice and wild horses could not have stopped him so he married a good looking little girl and burdened himself with the responsibility of keeping up a household.

IS NOW MOST POPULAR OF ALL MALE STARS ON SILVER SCREEN
SUNDAY FEATURE STORY
Nine out of every ten visitors to the Paramount studios in Hollywood ask the same question. "Is George Bancroft working?" and, "can we meet him?" The questions are natural ones. George Bancroft is considered the most popular man star before the motion picture public today. A nationwide poll just completed by Variety, well known trade publication, showed that.
It is only recently that this man has been so. Lon Chaney, for more than a year, was Hollywood's leading man-culine attraction. And there were others.
Bancroft himself has a reason for his success. It was not accidental with him.
When George Bancroft first arrived in Hollywood, having deliberately discarded all hope for the stage career that had been opening up so promisingly, he worked as an extra and a bit player in western pictures for a few dollars a day.
At that time he told his few acquaintances, "Some day I'm going to be the biggest star in this business." He continued to say it, every time the necessity for repetition arose until finally they quit lauding at him. All that is a matter of history in Hollywood.
HARD WORK WINS—
He was speaking with confidence. Supreme confidence in his own ability and a keen knowledge of his own Limitationh are the chief characteristics of this man. Bancroft's rise to screen eninence was not a matten of overnight success. Few players in Hollywood have worked harder than he for what has been given them.
"I went around this town in cowboy regalia for a year before they even noticed me, and then I had to laugh my way out of the mop." he declares. There is much of truth in that statement. It actually was Bancroft's now-famous laugh that brought him his first taste of success in films.
Bancroft had been just another motion picture cowboy until his big frame, his menly, unhandsome face, his powerful soulders and that wide-mouthed, hearty roar, brought him to the attention of James Cruze, then about to direct "The Pony Express" for Paramount.
In "The Pony Express" there was a part for a "laughing killer," a heartless bad man of the west who took childish delight in assassinating his enemies. Cruze, pictorially smart, took one look at Bancroft's freckled face, his wide grin, and the eyes that all but close with laughter, and immediately palied the possibilities of a big close-up.
FANS PRAISE HIM—
The "laughing killer" role was the turning point in George Bancroft's film career.
"That didn't just happen," said Baneroft, afterwards. "I had practiced that laugh regularly before my mirror every morning for months. That may sound vain. But with me it was a matter of business. I had but two things to sell: my appearance and ability, to act a part convincingly. It was up to me to improve both to the point where there would be a demand for them."
Bancroft's fine work in "The Pony Express" was far-reaching in its result. Letters from admiring picture fans all over the world began to pour into the studio and a contract resulted. Parts in three other Paramount pictures followed almost immediately.
Chicago, Oct. 29-By A.N.P.-Expression is being freely made that no other colored artist has ever appeared in this city and received the unrestricted praise which was given to Abbie Mitchell by daily newspaper critics, following a recital in Orchestra Hall Tuesday night under the absences of St. Thomas Episcopal Church.
NEW YORK AT NEGRO OPERA PERFORMANCE New York, Oct. 29—By A.N.P.—A foreign dispatch tells that Priscie Takamatsu, younger brother of the Emperor of Japan, was among those who hurried out of the Frankfort, Germank, opera house Sunday night when stink bombs were hurled in protest against the Negro opera, "Mahogany." Many were arrested.

RAILROAD CLATTER-COAST DOINGS By Charles L. Upton
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1930
RAILR
Dr. Darrington Waver one of our leading paper's star writer seems to have lived up to what Sheffield claimed he was several weeks ago in a pub's spat between the two writers, at that time the Doctor was on the outside looking in, but now he is on the inside looking out; having changed places with Every Tub", who is now basking in the sun light to the underworld dismay, one can never tell which way the wind will blow, and people who live in glass houses should not throw any stones the law states that needles were meant to sew with, and not to jab in peoples arms.
PLAN OF EMPLOYEE'S REPRESENTATION POLE LARGE
VOTE IN PRIMARY
ELECTION
Trailing in the wake of the P. P. B. A. election, the E. R. P. found the Knights of the Sheets in this district in a voting mood; according to those in authority had little trouble in obtaining a hundred per cent vote in favor of the plan. The old cry and excuse that the man forced them to vote at the end of a gun was not heard this year is in former elections as no cases of open intimation was in evidence. In fact it apparently was the opinion of many of the porters interviewed that the plan was the easiest way out of prevailing difficulties under the present conditions.
That the company has looked kindly toward this new attitude of the porters is evident by the fact that several former employees have been granted restatement and are now back in the good graces of the powers that be.
This fact coming as it does in a time of the deepest depression which is being felt all over the United States is looked upon as a change for the best.
The final election will swing into action immediately and according to the vote polled in the primaries it is indicated that the much buffed about E.R. P. will once more be established on a sound basis in this district. A general change in conditions in the district is bound to result from the reaction, which activities will be watched by the Clatter with interest.
H. E. Washington who is better known as (big Bertha) and who was one of the porters who got a taste of freight car duty last year, was determined not to go through with that agony again this year and was sitting on the door step of the Produce Building with his pencle in his hand the first to cast his ballot after which to make sure that he was in the clear he managed to get on the committee. Wash says they will never put that thing on him any more.
FOOTBALL CLASSIC DRAINS
DISTRICT OF PORTERS
The big football game is over, and with it one of the heaviest movements of traffic this year, as early as last Thursday Pullman cars were headed for the scene of the gridiron battle.
The rush in business served as a much needed tonic for porters who have been laying in town idle for as much as a week at a time before getting out. The depression that has swept the country has been felt very keenly by the porters and prior to the football game had played havoc with the tourist trade heretotore so heavier in and out of this district; every porter that could be reached was put into service during the past week. And with the Trojans wining the game every indication pointed towards the boys returning home with one of those trips you seldom see but often hear about.
A Fullman Porter who actually is a car of football players must indeed be a diplomat to break in the clear. Should the team he is handling loose. He must put his best foot formost on the way to the game, and in the event that his team come out second best he must double his efforts to please and not aggravate nerve; which as a rule are on edge as a result of the failure of the outfit. Should he fail to do this he is sure to come out second best with the rest of them and write his earnings down in red ink which no porter likes to do or can afford to do during these critical times. Teams who lose are always far from being in a liberal move. Many porters do not like to handle football teams and when they get the assignment make the matter worse by assuming a grouch which will only bring him grief in return. The porter that can take an assignment of this nature with a smile, and greet his players with a smile of willingness to go out of his way to please them. Is the porter who always comes out in the clear, unless the team is broke to start with.
All manner of transportation was pressed into service for the game, Airplanes, boats, automobiles and the comfortable pullmans, everything was sold out. Many of the passengers who occupied the Pullmans left their personal belongings and baggage on the train where they were carefully guarded by trustworthy Pullman Porters; a very popular feature of the Pullman Company, and one that is greatly appreciated by the traveling public. Another big rush is being prepared for when California plays the Trojans

to be none other then Porters Bill Day and Floyd Davis, two of the Los Angeles district crack pullman porters who had charge of the famous football team, the "Trojans" these porters did not have to write there receipts in red ink because the Trojans won the game, you can not tell Bill Day and Floyd Davis that football teams are not O.

$PROMINENT UNDERTAKER
VISITS CITY, WAS FORMERLY
A PULLMAN PORTER
Mr. James Tate prominent undertaker from San Diego drove down to this big city of wonders last Sunday and looked things over. He did not come down here looking for dead ones as there are enough dead ones in San Diego to supply his wants. He has a very prosperous business in the southern city, Mr. Tate was formerly a Pullman Porter out of the St. Louis district, and transferred to Los Angeles working here for a period and then going in business in San Diego. He has had his ups and downs as the white undertakers fought his entering the field in the southern city, wanting the colored business for themselves, but he kept on till he finally got established and is now one of the leading undertakers in San Diego.
Don't forget to notify the writer what you did before you entered the Pullman service.
GOOD WILL AIR TOUR
STARTS WEDNESDAY
A good will air tour will get started on its way Wednesday at 8:15 A.M. and their will not be any Pullman porters on board; as up to the present stage in aviation I have not heard of any of the boys leaving the ground except in an elevator. The firs tdays travel of the tour will end in San Francisco.
What did you do before you entered the Pullman Service?
WHAT PULLMAN PORTERS OF THE LOS ANGELES DISTRICT DID BEFORE THEY ENTERED THE SERVICE—WHAT DID YOU DO?
J. McNarey who operates a sleeper on the Famous Owl Limited was a switchman out of Houston, Texas before he went in the Pullman service, and in order to be a switchman out of that town you certainly have to know your engine.
W. W. Barejield was a regular soldier nthe United States Army and attained the rank of sergeant before he quit to go in the Pullman Service. Mr Barejield is a man of wide experience and exceptionally well read on all subjects.
L. Jenkens, Jr., was born in New Orleans and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, coming to that city when he was seven years old. He spent most of his time before going in the Pullman service at school and has a good education, speaks Spanish fluently just like his dad, and knows every native in Phoenix, below the S. P. depot can be seen two giant trees which were planted by his father L. Jenkens, Sr. over twenty years ago. Young Jenkens has had his ups and downs in life because he operated an elevator in Phoenix for some time.
Jas. A. Worthham, former pullman porter of this district finished a course in printing at Wiley University, but never followed the trade. He was a freight caler and messenger helper for the Wells Forgo Express company for 13-years. After which he worked as bank messenger for 9-years in the sun kissed state of Texas. He took the advice of Horace Greely and came west and entered the Pullman service, resigning to work in the city hall where he is at the present writing. He has a side line this year selling beautiful Christmas cards which are different from any that have ever been on display.
A number of porters have had various experiences in the cotton fields as follows: H. A. Ross was a cotton spotter in Houston, Texas. H. A. Prescott was a cotton spotter in Waco, Texas. C. H. Drish was a cotton spotter in Memphis, Tennessee.
Little Dick and Dave Rosemond were at one time considered the best bottom pickers that ever left the state of Carolina.
Win. Asbury was a head bellman in Chicago and 'Indianapolis and' has a lot of hotel experience.
Watch for next week's notes in this column, know your Railroad man by reading what Pullman Furters did before they entered the service.
A letter was received at Judge Caryl M. Sheldon's campaign headquarters from the Joint Executive Board of the Organized Labor, Movement of Los
in this city. This game like the U. S. C.-Stanford game always draws a large attendance of fans from the North. and even though California has not had such a good year so far, they have thousands of loyal supporters who will make the trip in the hopes of seeing then refeat the mighty Trojans.
T. TAFT HAS SERIOUS
ATTACK OF PTOMAINE
POISON
After being idle for practically a week. T. Taft continued his streak of bad luck by getting poisoned and narrowly escaped death as a result. Taft was already assigned to handle a car on the Sun-Set Limited when he was stricken. A doctor was summon and a stomach pump was brought into play which was the only thing that averted death. Tough breaks are his middle name.
UNEMPLOYED GET A BREAK
PICKING COTTON SPECIAL
TRAIN TO PHOENIX
A special train loaded with many who have been out o fwork for months was scheduled to leave here Tuesday evening for Phoenix, Arizona, where an abundant crop of cotton has taxed the minds of the owners to get it picked and on the market.
The call for cotton pickers was broadened over the radio and published in the newspapers for men with families who were out of work. Transportation will be paid for those who wish to make the trip and it is thought that many people will take advantage of the timely offer. For those who have never been to Phoenix the trip alone is well worth taking. Phoenix is a town where prosperity is always on the job, the only draw back there is in this place is the heat if one can stand the heat, they should soon be able to get on their feet. Many of us feel to proud to pick cotton in this day and time which is a feeling that a lot of us should brush aside. Many of us have picked cotton back in the south, and know what it's all about. The proud feeling should be done away with. We may be to proud to pick cotton but we are far from being to proud to take the money. My advice to those who are out of work is to get to Phoenix if you have to walk. By the time cotton season is over something may turn up in the Boulder dam district and you will be that near the field of action; I never picked cotton in my life, but if I were out of work you would find me on that cotton picking special headed for Phoenix and don't forget it. It's the money I want, how about you? Any of my readers who are planning on making this trip and wish the California Eagle in Phoenix, I will be only to glad to arrange for its delivery to your door. Keep track of what is going on in your home town by having the Eagle mailed to you in Phoenix, Address Chas. L. Upton 2190 W. 30th Street.
H. B. WILSON BIDS LINE
28 GOOD BYE
With tears in his eyes. H. B. Wilson, bid a fond farewell to the San Diego line which he has been fortunate enough to hold all summer without being molested. The only sad part about the oeparture of Mr. Wilson from line 28 is the fact that in about two months the favorite sport of Mr. Wilson will start in full bloom, and Mr. Wilson having just barely existed on this line all summer, was preparing to make a killing when the horses started doing their stuff at Agua-Caliente, but one of the old timers of this peaceful little run was misplaced in the mad rush over on the Southern Pacific battlefield and in making his retreat. Mr. Wilson got in his path and was slain with out mercy. Too bad, too bad.

R. JONES NO. 2 HAS ELABORATE HEAT SYSTEM INSTALLED IN HOME
Even though Mr. Jones is fortunate to be living in a mild climate he is taking no chances of being uncomfortable when he comes in off of his run. Mr. Jones has recently had an elaborate hot water heat system installed in his home and can now boast of steam heat in every room, should the stout Mr. Jones desire to stage a marathon race around his domicile in his B. V. D.'s he may do so without the fear of contracting influenza. Mr. Jones is what I call a wise man. Not like some of my friends who believe in putting the heat in their stomach.

Thatcher Ends
Clean Campaign
For Supervisor
Pomona, Calif., Oct. 30—Willing and happy to assume four years of the hardest public service work to be found anywhere in order to bring to fruition the principles for which he stands, namely, conservation of water, tax adjustment, sane highway building, and expansion of the industrial and harbor facilities, Hugh A. Thatcher, candidate for first district supervisor, is this week drawing to a close his campaign which Los Angeles county leaders declare has been unique for its clean, business like administration.
Mr. Thatcher was the people's choice in the August primary election, polling 30,000 votes, 42 per cent of all the votes cast with seven candidates in the field. In his own district he received 90 per cent of the votes. Since the August election, Mr. Thatcher has been steadily gaining support. His overwhelming election is a certainty, say leaders close to the campaign throughout Los Angeles County. Polling a total of 25,000 votes among them, three of the eliminated first district supervisorial candidates in the primary Jerome V. Scofield, Col Robert E. Frith, and James D. Reagan have recently made public statements urging their supporters to back Mr. Thatcher at the polls.
This is the first time Mr. Thatcher has been in politics. His remarkable race has been most gratifying to his supporters and they attribute his success to the candidate's own unimpeachable honesty, his life-long record of ability; and his natural aggressiveness which is ideally balanced by sane conservatism.
E. J. Fleming, well known Los Angeles, attorney, head of the Downtown Business Men's Association and president of the Los Angeles Public Market, eschews the statements of hundreds of other prominent men in the county who have endorsed Mr. Thatcher, Mr. Fleming says:
"Having known Mr. Thatcher for mrog than 30-years, I deem it an honor and a privilege to certify that he is a man of unquestioned integrity, and that his experience as a business man and as an agriculturist fittingly qualifies him for his important office. I firmly believe that you will confer a favor upon yourselves and all other citizens of the First District in marking a cross opposite his name. You will never have cause to regret your action."
Mr. Thatcher in recent campaign addresses has been warmly applauded for his declaration that he is going into office with his hands united and his conscience free from any political promises. "I want to again pledge to you, here and now," Mr. Thatcher said, "that I have not made one single promise or 'deal' with any so-called special interests, either individuals or groups; nor will I. It was with my eyes open that I went into this campaign. They are still open; that is one of the reasons I insisted on financing my own campaign to the primary. And I elected your supervisor next Tuesday, any one of you who come to me in the next four years will get a square deal."
As a final word to the voters of the first supervisorial district today, Mr. Fhatcher again extended his gratitude to the more han 30,000 people who supported him in the primary and concluded with the following statement: "I rest my case in your hands. My pledge to you still stands and I shall appreciate your support next Tuesday if you want a clean business administration."
VOTE FOR JUDGE DAILEY
S. STAFFORD
New endorsements since his nomination at the Primaries, have been received from widely-divergent sources by Judge Dalley S. Stafford, who is a candidate for election in November to the Superior Court, office Number 9. Judge Stafford defeated two other candidates in the primary race, and will appear in the final run-off election with Judge I. Walter Hanby.
Judge Stafford represented his regiment at the first meeting of the American Legion in Paris, France, and has been an outstanding worker in behalf of disabled veterans for twelve years. Groups in every community are prepared to aid Judge Stafford at the November election.
In this group his campaign is being arranged by Afee McDowell. Dr. Claude Hudson, Mrs. Betty Hill, Eljah Cooper, Charles Aiston, Eva Solomons, Mrs. Clara Hulbert, Mr. Carpentier, W. H. Saunders, Rev. Miller, Rev. Mitchell, Dr. Prowd, Dr. Vada Somerville, Norman Houston and Mrs. Charlotta Bass.

Re-Elect Sidney Graves
Supervisor Third
District
SIDNEY GRAVES
For Re-Election
We present for your approval the cause of Sidney Graves who has rendered to the people of the Third Supervisorial District such valiant service for the entire time he has held this position.
Mr. Graves has been the consistent friend of labor, and has voted for measures which would give to the laboring man an opportunity for employment. He was almost wholly responsible for the $300,000.00 increase in wages for the county employees and has taken a keen interest in the speeding up of county work in an effort to do the county's bit for the relief of unemployment.
The plant of the California Eagle is located in Mr. Graves' district and we have ever found him the consistent friend of our group which is largely represented as employees of Los Angeles County and there are none who have been more active in seeing that they receive a square deal than Mr. Graves.
Therefore a strong support for Sidney Graves is urged by all peoples for his triumph at the polls next Tuesday.
SUPERVISOR GRAVES HAS SAVED YOU MONEY—
Do you know that the Third Supervisorial District is more free of Special Assessment Districts than any other section of the city?
This conition is the direct result of Supervisor Graves insistence that we district be created unless absolutely necessary and that when a district is created the county allocation is of such size as to reduce the assessment to the minimum.
Concrete evidence of the success of Mr. Graves' program is shown below. If you own property adjacent to any of the projects named Sidney Graves has protected you from burdensome taxation.

Young and Rolph Agree
When Governor C. C. Young and Mayor James Rolph, the Republican nominee for governor, join in indorsing a ballot proposal, it is a compliment to the proposition in question, but more than that—it is interesting news.
One of the most pleasing after-
maths of the primary election has
been the sportsmanlike attitude of
Governor Young toward the man who
de defeated him for reelection, and the
gracious response of Mayor Rolph.
Both men have conducted themselves
in this regard, as California desires
her governors to conduct themselves.
Governor Young and Mayor Rolph
are again in accord, this time in
support of Proposition No. 5 on the
November ballot, known as the State
Employees Retirement Act.
Governor Young declares: "It is
probably the soundest and fairest retirement measure ever devised."
And Mayor Rolph asserts: "I am
glad to recommend No. 5 as a
constructive measure which will pay the
state real dividends in increased effi-
ficiency and lowered overhead."
California voters will do well to vote "Yes" on Number 5. It is hu- manitarian and forward-looking— Stockton (Calif.) Record.

MUSICAL WEST
“We shall have with us this winte
in-concert the famous Paul Robesor
and Marion Anderson, contralto, Mr
Robeson ‘will no doubt confina kim
self to a prografn of Negto spirituale
as is his: nsual custom. Miss Ander
son will sing a Varied program, with
some- selections from the _ spirituals.
‘The white press will no doubt give
more praise to Mr, RoWeson. than to
Miss Anderson, At least the’ white
people in general will think that she
ought to stick to a program composed
entirely of Negro spirituals.
Artistically speaking, a program
composed entirely of Negro spirituals
sung by one person is sure to be
monotonous, no, matter; who. the sing-
er is, dn the first-place there ts not
enough, variety in these beautiful
songs to hold te interest of the audi-
ence a whole evening. Then too,
Phese songs were created to he sung
in groups and are most affective when
sung in that manney. No one yoice
alone will ever be able to gtve the
proper atmosphere to our folk_music.
But the great point that our friends
overlook is|that these songs are prim-
itive music| and were sung years ago
at their best/ when conditions were
different from ‘what they are today.
We can never bring back that sinceri-
tv. that depth <of feeling that sim.
plicity" that orginally wah a part of
the rendition of our songs. There is
the much striving after effect, too
much artificality in the manner in
whick they are sung today even im
our choruses. it does not reauire @
trained voice for their perfornlance
no more than for any other ‘olk-
music. How then,--an the American
audiences demand that our artists
who hare ‘spent years in training
their voices, sing nothing but primi-
‘ive folk_songs. Buropeans are more
iberal and the color of a man's skin},
has nothing to do ‘with bis ability’ as

Dr. Prowd Installed As Pastor Mt. Olive Baptist Church
CENTRAL GARDENS HAS
BIG DAY SUNDAY
On last Sunday the people gathered
in large numbers to be present at the
installation of Rev. H. D. Ptwud to
the pastorate of the Mc. Olive Baptist
Church, located at Central Gardens,
94th St. near Central avenue.
The day was given over to a special
program which had been arranged.
The morning session was both musical
and expressions of appreciation
for their new pastor, in which many
testimonials were given.
The afternoon session was the high
light of the day when Mayor Porter,
Superintendent Fox of the Baptist
Churches, a representative of Mayor
Rolph and other dignitaries, were
involved and spoke very sensible to
the occasion.
Rev. J. D. Gordon was the one钥
of the day and delivered a wond
erful sermon. Kovx. L. T. Grisham, K. E.
Ligatter, W. H. M. Dickerson, also
signed.
Rev. Green was Master of Cere-
monies and allied that position very
creditably indeed.
The evening service was the chur-
ing event when the various tribes were
reported and a considerable sum was
repaid to apply on the indebtedness
of the Church.

The weather was perfect and everyone who went is still talking about the things they saw and did.
We covered about 905 miles there and back. Spent Friday night in Bishop and early Saturday morning we pushed on toward the Nevada line, climbing higher and higher each minute until we found ourselves some thirteen thousand feet above level up among the big pines where a healthy covering of snow informed us that winter was on its way to pay us its annual visit. However the sun shone bright and climatic conditions were unusually pleasant. As a result L. G. Robinson and J. B. Bass, Titus Alexander and Jim Akers had a battle royal with snow balls. Each claimed victory but we think it was a draw. Leaving the snow area for a while we next visited a number of brooks, lakes and streams, laden with trout.
We returned to Bishop for the night and early Sunday we gased up and again climbing the high Sierra in the direction of Glacier Point. From here we went to Big Pines and the city play grounds there to North Lake, returning to the main highway and headed home. And now that it's over Jim Akers is going to North Lake next summer (so he says) to fish for trout. Titus is to chaperon him, L. G. Robinson is considering moving Hall of Records to Leevining Creek, about 350 miles away. J. B. Bass is considering taking the Engle to Bishop for a summer vacation. J. E. Prowd has decided to get married and spend his honeymoon at Mt. Whitney and E. L. Dorsey is going to take his Ford to Big Pine to be over-hauled because it's cheaper.
Yours,
EXHAUST
P. S.: What is all this new about Ray Isaum and Geary Buckner, attending church on Sunday, October 19. It's really a crime what one's friends will do when one's back is turned.
Throws Himself for $15 Loss as Penalty For Being Tardy
New York, Oct. 24—John D. —the pharmacist and proprietor of the —pharmacy in Brooklyn, has penalized himself $15 for being late in renting his subscription toward the work of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Upon receiving a "blue slip" as a second notification that his membership was overdue, Dr. —wrote the following letter:
"I stand convicted of receiving the second blue slip. Like a real genuine 'race' man I am ready with a million excuses. all good, for nothing. The guilty I find is that instead of the $10 stipulation, I will send as soon as I received the first slip and about which I wondered could I be fford it, now increased to $25, which I know will make me for the proverbial lite.
"This amount secure, as before, one copy of the Crisis and one membership each for Mrs. —and myself."
"Since we received the Crisis each and every month last year, correctly addressed and on time, each one better than the predecessor. I cannot think of anything to look about at this time. The Crow Flies ask so sweetly this month. As sweet as the 'Test in Ohio.'"
MILTON K. YOUNG THROTLES EXPOSE OF THE HEARST PAPERS
Final efforts of groups fighting desperately to place California in the "wet" lists of the nation by the election of Mayor James Rolph of San Francisco for Governor were taken today by supporters of Milton K. Young as a sure sign of victory at the November 4th polls.
Hearst newspapers, long recognised as champions of modification, if not complete moral collapse of the 18th Amendment and its nullification, have delivered a thrust in an attempt to discredit Young, who has been championed by Anti Saloon League, W. C. T. U. and ministerial groups the length and brethd California.
"Working with a precision that testified to long preparation, the Hearst chain delivered itself of a So-called expose early this week, calling attention to a learned legal essay written by Young two years ago which suggested ethical cures for the problems arising out of Prohibition.
Young's answer to the Hearst publi-
M.
cations repeated his firm stand which has cost him thousands of supporters in the west, eliminated the Democratic party, both in California and nationally, and has brought the weight of wealthy Republican dampness upon his shoulders. Embattled for a principle apparently designed to young. Young has been a handful of ardent dry skate enthusiasts as a result of the open attacks on the enforcement of the liquor laws. That California is dry by a large majority has been often proven. Young believes. Even in the recent primary when Mayor Rolph won the Republican nomination with only a 36 per centote, the balance of California's votes were dry candidates. Young points out.
Young's answer to the Hearst papers embodied his repeated challenge to the wet forces, and gave hint of a new approach, that may involve famous characters. Under the rules of the Hearst essay contest, in which as a contestant, I answered a question propounded by the Hearst papers with their apparent idea of obtaining for their readers a solution to the prohibition question. Writing in the capacity of an essayist, much as I would prepare a brief in a legal case, I answered that question. The first sentence in the essay very vividly describes the wrong of any attempt at any legislative nullification to the Federal Constitution, which I stand ready to enforce as Governor.
"Within the last year I have received definite information in the form of a very distinguished gentleman in the United States who is a member of the Association Against Prohibition and a partner of Mr. Raskob's, to the effect that the liquor traffic of the United States should be turned over to one huge corporation for the handling control and profits thereof. With this information at hand, the real iniquity of those opposed to the Eighteenth Amendment became apparent. I determined to devote the balance of my political career to the suporting, upholding and maintaining of the 18th Amendment in its original and unchangeable form. My personal record upon the prohibition is clear and indispensable. I have voted three times to oust the saloons from Los Angeles. I voted against the repeal of the Wright Law. I never at any time publicly or privately, undertook the overthrowing or violation of the Prohibition Law of this country.
"There is nothing in my essay to the Hearst papers which is inconsistent with my stand for the enforcement of the Eighteenth Amendment and the Wright Law. I am of the opinion today that the National and State prohibition laws must and should be retained, and I will do my part, as I always have, to uphold them. The whole question simmers down to this: Either Mr. Rolf or myself tie the Governor of California. Were I satisfied to the Rolph interests, the present attack would not be mide. Milton K. Young Following the Hearst 'empt to assault Young's character, the gubernatorial candidate saw other 'wet' newspapers of California take the unprecedented stand of picking up a so-called Hearst "exclusive" story. "The more seat-cut 'wet' press makes this issue, the better for the moral interests of California." Young challenged.
The Musicale sponsored by Madam E. L. Green, leader of The Tribe of Judah, came off last Friday Night gloriously successful. Each participant deserves and is hereby given highest praise, and sincere thanks. Madam Brooks and her students, Madam Payne and her student, together with everyone who came to our help will please accept our appreciation. Sunday was the banner day for Mt. Olive. From sunrise to sunset it was a time of service, and rejoicing. Superintendent Bateman had the largest out in Sunday School. From 11 A. M. to 1 P. M. felicitations were given the new pastor, Rev. E. L. Green, the Master of Cereumies hldd each speaker to time. Among the many visitors were Mrs. Harriet Rděd, Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Bass; these all spoke kindly words much to the joy of the Church.
At 3 o'clock the Church was crowded ed to the doors, the Choir singing delightfully as the Ministers took their seats, among which were Rev. Dr. Fox, Secretary of the Baptist City Missionary Society; Rev. Dr. T. L Griffith; Rev. Dr. J. D. Gordon; Rev. Dr. E. L. Ettinger and Rev. W. H. M. Dickerson. Each gave excellent addresses. As his honor Mayer Porter addressed the audience the large congregation, buttering hand-kerchiefs cheered him again and again. Dr. Gordon preached the sermon of the occasion, and it was the most piece—the Mayor and the rest of us heard him gladly. Our brother was justly complimented. The various Tribes reported to the joy of the whole Church. Each Tribe did splendidly and was heartily cheered as its amount was laid on the table. The total amount from nine of the Tribes was $200. We await hearing from three, then we shall declare the win- tiful prize. All these valiant church markers are given highest commendation. S. P. Johnson also brought us words of greeting. H. D.

"It is probably the soundest and fairest retirement measure ever devised. There can be no deficit to be made up by the state."

MAYOR ROLPH Says:
"I am glad to recommend Number 5 as a constructive measure which will pay the state real dividends in increased efficiency and lowered overhead."
(STATE EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT ACT)
Founded on an Employee-Contributory Basis
Reduces the overhead of state government by retiring old employees who have passed their years of efficiency.
Protects both the state and the employee; every employee is required to participate in systematized saving to provide for his retirement in have life.
Guarantees cash saving to tax payers of from $200,000 to $800,000 yearly through 5% improvement in efficiency. (This estimate by W. A. Johnstone, President of State Civil Service Commission.)

Samuel Brown An-
nounces Organ Class
Mr. Samuel Brown, graduate of U.
S. C. College of Music, wishes to an-
nounce to the public that he is en-
larging his class of musical students.
Such a large number of people have
requested that be give organ instruc-
tions, that in order to comply with
the requests, Mr. Brown will begin
with a limited number of organ stu-
dents.
Heretofore, his time has been occupied in making choral and orchestral arrangements. But his abilities as a teacher has been recognized not only by our group, but by the leading professors at the University of Southern California. Hence he has been induced to specialize in the art of piano as well as organ technique. Mr. Brown is qualified in all phases of modern music, including harmony, counterpart, voice, piano and organ. All students under his tutorship will be taught the fundamentals of music as well as the simplified methods of technique, there facilitating fingering and sight reading. [A large number of students have enrolled during the last few weeks. For further information and appointments, phone UHumbolt 7979.
Jack Kipper is the new chief inspector for Los Angeles. He was associated with Jim Jeffries in the days of yesterday and is well qualified to hold the job which he is now supervising.

Doll Nelson: You were excellent on offensive. Al Duvall, your brains do work when you play. Jimmie Jordan: I didn't know you were a track man. Some sprinting for 96 yards. Tom Collier: Where did you learn to tackle so hard?

Library Book Notes
Are you a Low-brow? Now, the Low-brow is not the person who can't make the grade. Nor is he the person who simply can't conceive that there is a grade to make. No, the Low-brow is he who deliberately determines to remain on the low and easy level of easy and vulgar amusement and will do all he can do to prevent others from enjoying what he will not enjoy.
One has heard the preacher read from St. Paul, "When I was a child I spoke as a child and understood as a child, but now that I am a man I have put away childish things." Yet they will go on in perfect contentment reading novels well within the mental grasp of a ten-year-old child, without realizing the inadequacy of either book on reader, even resenting any attempt to lure them up to an intellectual landing a few steps higher.
Any piece of writing or printing or music which demands more than passive reception, which requires an effort of the mind to enjoy on of the taste to appreciate, seems to them quite removed from recreation. They balk at it as a car with half its cylinders missing balks at a hill. The spark plugs of their power of enjoyment are foul, nee do be cleansed.
The intelligent person perceiving that other intelligent people seem to get pleasure out of something that as yet gives him no pleasure will try to find out what causes it. Nine times out of ten he will succeed. There is no arbitrary level to reach. Each will climb as far as his capties and taste will allow. Taste, however, is not an accident. Taste is growth that must be watered and cultivated. Some will be content to stop with "Hamlet," others will struggle up to, "Faust." This does not matter. There will be enlargement, a sense of new territory opened up, even though one does not completely explore it.
Read Robert E. Rogers "The Fine Art of Reading" and discover for yourself if your reading tastes mark you as a Law-brow. This book may be borrowed at the Helen Hunt Jackson Branch Library, 2330 Naomi avenue or the Vernon Branch Library, 4504 South Central avenue.

JUDGE J. WALTER HANBY For Judge Superior Court, Office No.9
THE NEW YORK TIMES
JUDGE HANBY has been fair and fearless in his administration of Justice; of a kindly and courteous disposition to litigants and their counsel; wise and discriminating in judging evidence as well as the law.
The following is a statement by Mr. H. B. Blakely, Secretary of the Superior Court in Los Angeles County:
In the six years that Judge J. Walter Hanby has been on the Superior Bench he has been most prompt in taking the Bench, and has been most consistently on the Bench for the regular Court hours and more. He has disposed of as many trials of civil cases month by month as any other Judge of our Court, and according to the statistics bertorefor compiled, each of the Judges of this Court is trying more cases per Judge per year than any other Judge or group of Judges in the world.
While sitting in the Law and Motions, the Domestic Relations, and the Order to Show Cause Departments, Judge Hanby has disposed of those calendars with as little help by transfer as any of the Judges who have sat in those Departments.
Elect JUDGE HANBY, to the Superior Court, Office No. 9, November 4th, 1930, and keep our courts in the hands of Honest, Efficient and Fearless men.
President Assistance League of S. C.
For a number of years one of the outstanding women engaged in philanthropic work, Mrs. Hancock Banning knows the social needs of Los Angeles as few other women of the city. She founded and has been president of the Assistance League of Southern California for the past ten years. This organization, which is a member of the Community Chest, fills a real need in the Community. Her services and ability have been recognized by a great number of worthy institutions; she is a member of the board of directors of the Community Chest, the American Red Cross and numerous other organizations. Her statement regarding the effect upon agencies who are Community Chest members, is significant because they are backed by a wealth of first hand information.
"When 147 or more Social agencies got together and accepted the Community Chest as their collective financing body, they realized that the benefits would not be confined to a saving of time and reduced costs in their individual, financing campaigned, but huge benefits, both tangible and intangible, would accrue from the stakeholder of agencies formed
"These closer bonds of association were bound to bring into the light glaring duplications of effort, inequalities in costs o operation, varying standards of service, and lack of a well worked out plan of social work of community wide scope.
"To remedy these deficiencies the Social Welfare Committee of the Community Welfare Federation was formed. The fifteen members of this committee appointed an Advisory Committee of fifteen, drawn principally from public and co-operating agencies not in membership in the Court. The function of this latter committee is purely advisory—it has no vote.
The Social Welfare Committee then appointed eight sub-committees to make studies of financial problems and agencies working in these fields. The sub-committees are as follows:
(1) Care of the pre-adolescent; (2) adolescent group and working age; (3) committee on family agencies and Belief; (4) committee.
less Mon; (5) Employment; (6) Health. This committee consists of 15 members. 10 of which are practicing physicians serving in Hoapaths and clinics and medical social workers; (7) Character Building Agencies; (8) Veteran Agencies.
"inasmuch as the board members, executives, social-workers and Chest officials are meeting regularly throughout the year to study changing social needs, community lacks, efficiency of operation and higher-standards of service, the plan becomes an educational one in which every agency is represented and takes an active part.
"All have agreed to meet the minimum standards which the Chest promises donna the participating agencies will maintain. The benefits to the agencies and public are manifold. One agency executive, for five years, had been trying to get rid of an antiquated method of filing. In one meeting of the conference on Medical clinic records she obtained enough evidence to reorganize her medical records more efficiently."

VAL VERDE NEWS
Los Angeles' well known and highly respected citizens, Prof. E. L. Chew, was circulating among friends at Val Verde Sunday. Prof. Chew is well informed as to surroundings here as he was for a long time connected with the promotion of Val Verde Properties in many important posts. These lovely hills and vales still resound with his eloquence in depicting the future of this section. He was allowed special courtesies at the Community House and was also entertained by Mrs. Hattie Baldwin and others. He expressed great surprise at the improvements and general prosperity here, and predicted that his earlier vision was in the embryo of development, and stated his views in flattering remarks on the register. Prof. Chew held several consultations with Mr. George A. Mesick, the Exclusive Representative of Val Verde Properties, Ltd., as they were both officially connected with this tract several years ago, before the Park and Club House were built.
Mr. E. R. Baldwin met with a painful and very serious accident on the eve of the 20th inst., while enroute to Val Verde. After turning at the Richfield Oil Station on the coast road, just about a quarter of a mile from the entrance to the canyon, he was struck by a hit and run driver. His car was knocked against a telegraph pole, and hurled over a deep embankment. In the descent it turned over twice and was badly damaged. After a strenuous effort Mr. Baldwin managed to get from under the wreck, and with almost superhuman strength, trecked to the Club house, where he was given first aid and general assistance. After a day or so he was removed to his home where he remained under the care of family and friends. He is now much improved, and has reported for duty at the Southern Pacific Station.
The genial Arthur Provost, with his motto, "Every day it is getting better and better" was host to a party of friends at his cottage. "The Three Buddies" and the Community house, last Sunday. Among the guests were the Misses A. E. and Ethel Marion Taylor, Mrs. Philip Burgess, Mrs. G. S. Provost and son, Mr. and Mrs. N. R. Watson. Miss Annie Howard, Mr. W. A. Taylor, Mrs. Ica Velma Taylor and Gladys Antohouette Taylor.
Mr. Van C. Williams, the popular mail distributor at the Hall of Records in company with Mrs. Williams, the Misses Lizzie Paterson, Elziabeth Jones, Mary Baldwin, Mr. and Mrs. Chas, Hall, Mr. Robert Hall, Mr. Robt. Reddick, Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Bell, Miss Bessie Bell were guests at the Casa De Baldwin the past week end.
Mr. Percy Moore of 3627 McKinley Avenue, entertained Mrs. Lulu Goodwin and Mrs. Asia Stewart at the Pavilion last Sunday.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank W. Strange and Junior, Mr. and Mrs. F. T. Brawley of Pasadena, Mrs. M. A. Murphy of Chicago, Mrs. William Allison of Nashville, Tenn., Lela Turner, Carrie Brown of Los Angeles, Messrs. Henry Garnett and Thomas Franks of Soldiers Home, Sawtelle, Miss Helen Turner and Treas.

stand as to the date of their dance. About fifty members came over from San Fernando, Piru, Fillmore and surrounding territory, and were turned away. The fault was not the Park management, but a conflict in dates by the officers of the club and failure to properly notify invited guests.
Our esteemed friends Mr. and Mrs. Chas S. Blodgett, motored to Val Verde, last Sunday, Memories, Memories, days long ago, made their visit a very enjoyable one. Mr. Blodgett gave an attentive ear to the general progress being made here, and earnestly asked many questions. That Val Verde can thus interest a conservative, thoughtful, successful business man like Charley Blodgett, it means a great deal.
S. E. Hancock, Mr. and Mrs. Fountain Brown, Sam'l W. J. Wural, Mrs. S. Morris, Mrs. Alice Smith, Mrs. Ruth Wright, Mrs. and Mrs. Oates, Harvey Jackson, Mr. and Mrs. J. Carter, C. W. Turner, Jas. McNeely, Fort Worth, Texas, H. Clark, Oakland, J. N. Mills, Denver, Colorado, were among the Val Verde guests last week.
The opening of the winter social season promises to surpass any since the Club House has been built. The roads are in excellent shape, the San Martinez Road up the canyon having been graded, widened and oilled. This connection with the new Weldon Canyon pass, the million dollar highway, gives a direct paved road to the Park from all sections.

Grant Chapel A. M. E. Chureh—Rev. T. F. Jones, Pastor—Large congregations were in attendance at all services Sunday. The Sunday School as usual led the way with a record attendance. At the eleven o'clock service the Pastor preached, using as a subject "Midnight Scenes Recorded in the Bible": the subject of the Evening sermon was "Consecration for Service." Both sermons were greatly enjoyed by the congregations. There were a number of visitors at both services.
The Senior choir sang in the morning and the Junior choir at the evening service. The group leaders made splendid reports on the Building Fund. The pastor will preach at the eleven o'clock service next Sunday and at night Grant Chapel Senior Choir will give a sacred Musical program. We all know what to expect when Grant Chapel choir renders a program, so be on hand early.
Great interest is being manifested in the coming annual banquet which will take place on Thursday night. November 15th, Preparation is being made to take care of 300 hundred. The way the tickets are going it seems that they will be sold out long before the day arrives. So if you plan on attending this Banquet, get your tickets now. The price per plate is 75 cents.
The Young People's Orchestra under the direction of Mr. L. G. Eggleston assisted by Mr. McKinney and Geo. Jones soloist, will furnish the music for the occasion.
Macedonia Baptist Church, Rev. L. M. Curtis, Pastor—Macedonia's Sunday School was very well attended. The Supt. being absent, the S. S. was instructed by the Assistant. The 11th grade students were well attended by many visitors present. The Serer was inspiring to all present, and parts were made to rejoice.
B. Y. P. U. held its usual sessi-
mity many youngsters present,

Next Sunday will be our regular First Sunday meeting and all are requested to be out in large numbers to the Covenant.
The Choir was in its full trim last Friday Evening in a Recital. A very splendid program was rendered by the choir, which has inspired them to bigger things. The Choir is now making ample preparations for their Christmas entertainment.
Lee's funeral was held on Wednesday. He is the pastor of the church, a missionarian for many, and the same till he died by wife, son.

When you come to No. 3-A under the Charter Amendments on your ballot next Tuesday, stop and think how this central purchasing measure, if passed, affects your public library. Do you want your books delayed in getting to the library shelves? Do you want 100,000 books a year for which taxpayers furnish the money to be purchased by a man who knows nothing of books, philological aids and publishers catalogues, local and foreign book markets? It is clearly to be seen that the selection of books require an expert with a lifetime knowledge of books and libraries. The library has such a book buyer of 35 years' experience, who with a specially trained staff of 23 assistants, handles an average of 600 books daily and routes them with all possible speed to the library shelves for the people of Los Angeles.
With a central purchasing office a mile away from the library, and thousands of orders pouring daily through this office on matters which have no relation to the library, delay would inevitably result.
If you want your books promptly, selected and purchased by book specialists, vote "NO" on No. 3-A.

On Friday morning, the 17th inst., a group of local business men consisting of J. B. Bass, L. G. Robinson, Jim Alpers, E. L. Dorsey, Titus Alexander, and J. E. Prowd, left the offices of the California Eagle on a three-day tour of inspection of the city's water and power plants in Owens Valley.
"Twas a wonderful trip, in every way, and particularly instructive."
Once outside of the city limits with its net work of congested traffic the party, which comfortably occupied two autos, headed straight for the great Mojave desert and the open via Glendale, Sagus and Mint Canyon.
The Los Angeles aqueduct, which has its origin at the head waters of the Owens Valley, connects and furnishes Los Angeles five power plants, which supply the city with generated electricity that furnishes it light and power, in addition to its water, was picked up in the San Fernando Valley near Newhall and never lost sight of except for short intervals, during the entire trip.
Branching off into Boquet Canyon, the party made its first stop about 10:30 at Power Plant, Number Five, located about fifty miles from Los Angeles. Here a thorough inspection, covering about an hour, was made of a wonderfully equipped power plant with its several hydroelectric generators running 24 hours a day.
Every operation was explained down to the smallest detail and the information furnished by Mr. Alexander and Mr. Stigman supplied the party with much data that stood them in hand during the balance of the trip.
Leaving here the next stop was Mojave where a healthy meal was enjoyed and the party continued on the next leg of its journey, visited another power plant above Little Lake, passed through Lone Pine, Independence, thence on to Eig Pine and from there to Bishop, where we arrived about 8 P. M., spent the night and left early the next day for an inspection of the third power plant in the chain of five, also saw the gorge whose stream involved the Sierra Power Company and Los Angeles in court action for some time. Visited prosposed aqueduct tunnel which is partially completed and the proposed dam that is to furnish the water for two new power plants. From here we traveled through another net work of lakes consisting of June, Silver and Grant Lake, arriving at one of the

POLITICAL POT PIE
We are for Rolph for Governor. We are for Merriam for Lieutenant Governor.
We are for the entire local Republican ticket.
Emory V. Crain is in charge of the Plummer for Sheriff headquarters now located at 2504 Central Ave. He asks that we make this announcement that all who are interested in Plummer for Sheriff may drop in also those who are not are welcome.
Sanders pulled off one of his old time political rallies at the 20th St. School House last Monday evening. Big Bill Traeger was there and received a tremendous ovation.
Now, all these people, including some of our leading citizens who get at one another over something said, done or left undone in a heated political campaign, had better soak their head in a barrel of brine, and shake hands with themselves and then proclaim—I will never again lose my head and seek to harm my fellow citizen because of their being my political enemy.
"Of all sad things by tongue or pen, the saddest is, what might have been."
And now comes to a close the quietest State and County campaign perhaps of all time. Utterly devoid of interest and color. The big Job will be for local aspirants to get the vote out. The candidates who accomplish this one thing will be the winners.
Swat the Daylight Saving Amendment. It means nobody any good, more especially the plan, common, every day people.
Judge Carlos Hardy seems to still have the call as the people's choice.
Judge Dudley Valentine is moving on to a very much assured victory.
We are all for Rolph and Merriman and that's that."
We are all for Kroplin and Me-
and that's that."
Wood Wilson is quite busy these
days and will no doubt occupy a front
seat if Plummer gets over the hurdles.

city's surveying camps near Mona Lake. Here we spent an interesting hour, after which the party went up Leavitt Creek where the Sierra Power Company has several power plants that the city has options on. We returned to the surveying camp about 5:00 p. m., had a wonderful dinner and the pleasure of meeting Messrs, F. G. Meek, Dean Van Norman, Milton Anderson and S. L. Parratt, all connected with the Water Dept. of Mona Basin. No stone was left unturned to supply the party with information and as a result the party learned much of the needs and necessities of the city's requirements in its struggle for the future water and power rights sorely needed if Los Angeles is to be permitted to grow and expand or handicapped and its property owners and business interests to receive an adequate supply of water and cheap electricity.
Leaving this point we retraced our tracks reaching Bishop about 8:00 in the evening, where we spent the night and pulled out early Sunday morning for Glacier Points, North Lake, and several other power plants that belong to the Sierra Power Company and which are also under option to the city. These points visited, the autos returned to Big Pines and headed their noses Southwest, toward Mojave and home, reaching Los Angeles at Mid-night, Sunday.
All in all, 'twas a wonderful trip and the water and power users which practically means the entire populace of our city, can little realize or appreciate that is being done along the lines of development to build up a municipally owned public utility system that will not only give employment to thousands but adequate water and electric energy at minimum cost.

Inspection Station For Gas Appliances to Be Established Here
AMERICAN GAS ASSOCIATION SELECTS LOS ANGELES
Another indication of the importance of Los Angeles as a manufacturing and distributing center is the announcement of the American Gas Association that it will establish an inspection station of its Testing Laboratory here soon.
The Association's Testing Laboratory is located in Cleveland, Ohio. Here gad appliance manufacturers may send their products for testing, and those appliances which are found to comply with basic, national standards of safety, are permitted to carry, the Blue Star Laboratory Approval Seal of the American Gas Association.
The decision to establish a Coast
inspection station is due to the desire to give appliance manufacturers on the Pacific Coast the same class of laboratory testing and inspection service as afforded Eastern concerns by the main Testing Laboratory in Cleveland. Important reasons for locating the station in Los Angeles are:
1. Every appliance manufacturer on the Pacific Coast is at least 1500 miles further from the Testing Laboratory at Cleveland, than any gas appliance manufacturing concern east of the Rocky Mountains.
2. Approximately 18 per cent of the Laboratory's present patrons are located in the State of California.
3. According to recent statistics, about 18 per cent of the Laboratory's potential patrons also are established in California.
A further point in favor of the establishing of a Coast inspection station is the fact that freight and express charges on equipment shipped to the Testing Laboratory, for approval, are more than twice as high for manufacturers on the Pacific Coast as for concerns located in the East. This item is of consequence when it is necessary to return appliances for correction, and it is thought

that much of this expense could be avoided ware appliances given a careful inspection before being shipped to Cleveland for the Laboratory Test.
In connection with the establishing of this inspection Station, the American Gas Association plans to have a competent man on the West Coast to advise interested city officials concerning the adoption and enforcement of gas appliance ordinances. These ordinances, which have been adopted by several cities on the Pacific Coast already, are for regulating the sale, installation, maintenance and repair of appliances to insure the safe use of gas.

In their report to the L. A. Chamber of Commerce, eminent engineers have gone on record stating that not only the amount of bonds to be voted for, are necessary but six million more would conserve the people's interests. On the basis of this report the Chamber of Commerce is supporting these bonds 100 percent. Surely this great body is much concerned for our city's welfare and would not for one moment lend its support to any measure which did not mean both progress and prosperity for the people.
Then along with this phase of the proposition comes the employment situation and general depression which prevails at this time to consider. This bond issue will mean the circulation of millions for labor, aside from other millions for materials and food stuff thereby aiding materially in bringing an end to the so-called hard times. This is food for thought and should weigh heavily for the adoption of this bond issue. There is NOT ONE CENT of taxes levied for these bonds, the people are only guaranteed out of the revenue from the Department of Water and Power.
We are sure the readers of the California Eagle appreciate progress and are loyal to the city in which they live. We do not for one moment believe they will sell their birthright for a mess of pottage, but without money or price will swing in line for a greater, better and bigger Los Angeles by voting for the bonds and an adequate water supply for years to come and that as a result, the people will enjoy even cheaper power than they have at this moment which makes artificial daylight cheaper indeed than daylight itself.

What of the American Negro as a buyer and user of goods? Is he worth taking seriously? Is the traditional happy-go-lucky plantation life of the South still a measure of the race's standard of living? Or is it marketing mistake o tpiece the Negro as basking under genial skies, supremely happy if he has enough for the next meal; good-natured even when hungry; buying a plink shirt and a pair of No. 10 shoes for his wedding day, but never buying another new thing to wear until the undertaker does the buying for him?

many a Negro "never qwns anything new," that often his home boasts less chairs than children, and that his food is of the cheapest and meanest sort, but this hardly true in the North.
Some 60 per cent of our 15 million Negroes live in the rural South. Although the recondition is improving, they are not a great market for goods. Fixti because they are, for the most part, so far from literate and their intellectual tabula are so low that no form of advertising can whet the desire of possession; and, second, from one end o' the year to the other, they have no cash to spend. The land tenure system throttles the ability to buy anything beyond bare necessities, for under prevailing landlord methods in the Southern States the Negro and his family are tenants of the farm and of the cabin on a crop-sharing basis. The landowner makes advances for seed and fertilizer, feed for the animals and food for the family until the crop is harvested. The same individual owns the store from which these supplies are obtained. It follows, quite naturally,

Aside from his qualities as a law maker, he was endowed with the attribute it takes to make a man. Courageous, fair in all his dealings and true to his promises in all things; he was trusted. Partizanship was laid aside when he aspired to office. Republicans and Democrats, alike, sponsored his candidacy. He will be missed. He was at the time of his demise 72 years of age.

One of the more important of Community activities in the programme of the Booker T. Washington Center, San Francisco, is the Forum held every fourth Sunday in the Center Assembly Room. The personnel is composed of a young girls club, students in the High and Junior College Schools or the U. of C. The discussions of civic and group topics have a helpful tendency and show thoughtful study of the subjects presented. This Forum is something of vital importance to the community and should be encouraged by all. Before it comes questions of potent value. They are determining for themselves many problems of interest in the lives of today's youth. They delve into the eproblems of civic betterment with a thoroughness astonishing. There is no dallying. They pursue the straight path. No obstacle is allowed to stand in their way. Reach the Goal; they must. Much of the success of the movement is due to the energetic direction of the Executive Secretary of the B. T. W. Center, Mrs. Ethel Riley Clark. Credit for the co-operation in the movement must be given to Miss Unicee Moore, President; Miss Melfonte Pinkney, Secretary and Miss Willie McCovey, who heads the Committee on Programme. Aside from these directing heads the membership is composed of live and awake young people. Alive to the needs of the community and awake to the means of contributing their intelligence to helpfulness.
sily, that the Negro is ever in debt, or at least that he seldom can lay hand on a single dollar of what he knows as "cash money." As a general rule the Negro in the North, until very recently, lived but little better than his fellows in the South. Beginning, however, in 1914 or 1915 came the first wave of employing blacks in Northern industry. The movement was great during the two years, then she appeared for five years, but since 1925 has risen strikingly. The facts are rather well known. It may not be quite so well known that the Northern Negro, as a market for goods, has altered even more materially.
Possibly a single statement will indicate this change. All the first comers in our Northern cities—and in the North, the Negro is urban, not rural—were excluded from work that carried good pay. Personal service was open to him, and "common labor," but the skilled trades were shut. The rarest immigrant from abroad could earn three times the Negro's wage. But this situation has been entirely uprooted by the present restricted immigration.
The industrial centers of the North have been compelled to recruit their workmen trothe Negro race. The labor unions have had no alternative but to open their membership. Now we have at least ten industrial centers (where the Negro can earn in a day about as much "cash money" as his father received in a year on the plantation.
Today about one-fifth of the Negroes of this country live in:
Indianapolis District
Cleveland Youngstown District
Kansas City District
Pittsburgh District
Columbus-Cincinnati District
Detroit-Toledo District
St. Louis District
Chicago District
Philadelphia District
New York District
The Negro has shown immense capacity for physical work. He has brought into the North moreover, the racial habit of the woman working side by side with the man in the fields. Our manufacturers have given ready employment to the women of the race, finding them physically able to work as no other women can. The Negro family, as areult, finds itself with a larger incompetence than whites working in the same establishments. When lay-off occur, the Negro shows remarkable ability to shift into new employment. He has no prejudices about "kind of work." He will take anything that pays well, bothered not at all by the reasoning which tempts other men to loaf unless work of their kind appears.
It could be remembered, too, that it is the young men and their wives who have come north into the industrial districts. The old people have stayed behind in the South. Unburdened, therefore, these young couples have fallen into new wealth, in a laid where they see, white men with less

income enjoying luxuries. Five or eight years have brought an immense change in their spending habits. Now they have the money to spend, they are potentially a market such as they never were before. On needs they are more aggressive sections of any city to observe the better type of store, the finer displays and the better maintained business fronts.
Drugs are an important commodity with the Negro. Cosmetics, peroxides and bleaches and laxatives attain a volume almost unbelievable. (See "Selling Drugs to Harlem," Advertising and Selling, Oct. 31, 1928.) The race has a fancy for doctor-working which leads them to pore over the label of any bottle of patent medicine and to read the last 'small-font line of every "circular" on "dogger" tossed on the doorstep. The Negro has great faith in certain drugs. The mention of one of them as ingredient in a specific goes a long way to make the sale. The word "quinine" is magical. He seems to buy it in any form. He hints of presence in a novel called "Hunt for the Brand." The brand has multiplied the popularity of one brand. Probably, as a race, he was impressed with the quities of quining out of generations of living in malarial regions of the South. He also fond of certain orders of grease and will buy them, without reference to merit, because of some unknown peculiarity of name, age-ing custom or imagined virtue.
As to his food, the Negro with new wealth has slipped far from the diet of his brothers in Dixie. Among those who remain in the South corn bread is the staple for twenty-one meals a week, eaten not with butter, but with grease from therying-pan. In the Southern cities, such as Richmond and Baltimore, where bakers' bread is available, the Negro buys the poorest loaf on the market, often being the outlet for "stales" from the retailer's counter. But in Detroit there is a marked preference for "French" loaves, with their abundant crust, and everywhere in the North sweet rolls are popular. For spreading these, butter is used in generous measure. Nor will they countenance "oleo" or any of the substitutes for diary butter, for apples or for carrots, sell a substitue" declares a grocer in Harlem. For some reason, too, substitutes for coffee make poor leadway with colored buyers. Another peculiarity is their aversion to fresh vegetables, other than the potato family. One explanation is that their women dislike to prepare them, but grocers say: "They'll buy turnips and carrots for the tops to be used as greens, but they'll throw the 'body away.'"
Dellicatessens are reported to exceed groceries in the Negro sections of Chicago and Cleveland. "Pork shops," everywhere, outnumber meat markets, and even in the stockyard areas of Chicago they prefer highly seasoned pork to any other meat. Of the things less material, there is music. A recent survey in Indian-spain indicates that "some kind of musical instrument is in more Negro
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31, 1930
homes than in any other." The list of instruments gives first, place to stringed ones; second, pianos; third, phonographs. Radios stand sixth for that city. A similar study (by the same investigators) for Detroit did not include choice, but it did rank phonographs above Radios dropped even lower than sixth place, into eighth. Even saxophones outnumbered radio sets.
It has been publicly stated that Negroes in the North are the best of all markets for "canned music," and a number of personal interviews show them as a big market for phonograph records. A given record will enjoy a wave of demand, sweeping from home to home through an entire block. Imitation seems to control even their selection of music! It would appear that a large market for radio sets might here be developed by someone who thinks out the proper appeal to the Negro mind.
The Negro, too, is emerging as a merchant. The da yis slipping when whites exclusively are to operate the drug stores and gloeries with scarcely a Negro clerk to be found. Less than two years ago the Negro merchants of Montgomery, Alabama, banded themselves together into the Colored Merchants' Association, chiefly for the purpose of defending Negro gloeries against chains. Under far-seeing counsel from Tuskegee Institute a three-fold plan was adopted: (a) to organize the local Negro grocers into a study club of modern selling; (b) to make a study of the Negro consumer; and (c) to tie up with local jobbers. It is notable that in two of these three platforms the word "study" occurs, and as the association has spread into other cities, self-education to be better merchants has been foremost in objectives. They recognize their own lack of inherited experience. They recognize, further, that a Negro store cannot ppoft unless it offers more than racial sentiment to customers.
Within two years this co-operative movement has spread into 18 cities. Everywhere the Negro has improved his stores and bettered selling methods quite as much as he has battled for lower prices. The illustration which accompanies this article is that of a remodeled grocery in Harlem. The same type may be seen in Chicago and Detroit, Winston-Salem and Dallas. In each of these 18 cities the weekly meeting of members features a talk either on quality of merchandise or some item of salesmanship. Possibly the most common feature of the meetings is a gathering at a member's office, where some experienced poison demon strates display value, or store rear-rangement, or cleanliness, the whole meeting taking on somewhat the form of the old barn-raising. The assembled members transform the store into a new place under guidance of someone who knows.
More than 250 Negro grocers are now members of this co-operative movement. In New York City—which, of course, mean Harlem—are 23 such groceries. In Harlem, furthermore, a beginning has been made in realizing the third platform of the association: Tying up with local jobbers. Francis H. Leggett & Company added to their force one Negro salesman who specializes in the accounts of these 23 grocers. So popular is the act of friendliness that the associate introduces a similar plan in other places. Patterning after the chain stores of some cities, weekly advertisements are run in whichover local paper is most read by the Negroes. The copy frankly mentions that the stores are "Colored," but makes an appeal for custom on the ground of quality and attractive storekeeping. There is no hint of race prejudice nor any cry for buying at home.
Herein is shown the emergence of the Negro into merchandising. Nor is this circumstance isolated.Twenty months ago my personal investigation brought to light no Negro operated drug store in Harlem; recently five were found. In Chicago, three have been reported to me by name as having sprung up within a year; in Detroit, I hear of six.
In all the industrial centers Negroes are coming to own dwelling property, even costly apartments. Savings banks make favorable reports. The Negro women of Northern cities, more often than the men, show an ambition to set up in business for themselves. Small shops of the specialty type have sprung up in thousands, while beauty parors, of course, are common. It is claimed by enthusiastic leaders of the race for businesses have been established, but it has been forced to conclude that few of these are of importance. The Negro, even the industrial centers, is not yet a great merchant. A beginning, it is true, has been made in developing a capacity for management, but a long period of educating within the race will be required before they will have the confidence in any "Negro manager" or owner that they have for the white man.
As the Negro susceptible to advertising?
In a general way, those who have migrated north are able to lead. They have, however, only the slightest interest in the sporting pages of the newspaper, in more, in fact, than they envision in the "high society" life of the city. One is about as unattainable as the other.
For possibly a similar reason they are not highly responsive to the advertising pages of the dailies. They
