"Give the King thy judgement, O God, and they righteousness unto the King's son.
He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.
The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness"
—Psalms 72:12
THE NATIONS OF THE world today are devised and sub-devised into groups of men and women. Some of them are struggling for economic freedom. Some are struggling for religious domination, and others for material wealth; while others seek potential positions of political or social lordships over the people—and as we view this motley crew of human malcontents—We see eiar beyond, in the distance, a little group struggling for righteousness for righteousness sake.
They contend that, what the world needs most is peace and a righteous distribution of natural resources of the earth.
"I WOULD NOT LIVE always. I would not ask to stay" is what we sing,—and the man who wrote and passed on these lines realized, that is best our duration for this plane is limited, hence while he looked out of the dimly lighted window of his hungry soul, through the half open window of the brick and wood structure, called home, he saw the rose bush blooming there, and smelled the intoxicating perfume from the Hyacinth—yet a feeling of remorse crept over him. Here am I living in a world of people and plenty yet I am lonely and hungry—wondering what will be my lot in the beyond. If I have not been able to live in peace and harmony with my fellowman here in this Kindergarten will I be able to harmonize my nature to the extent of becoming one of the angels in the school of perfection called heaven.
After all when we have striven for supremercy over all, have seen and felt only our selfish needs and desires, at the end of the trail we get back what we gave.
DON'T WRITE WHAT you are ashamed of; if you are ashamed to sign your name to it you should be ashamed to have anyone read it.
Occasionally we receive letters wherein the writer takes exception to some statement published in this or some other paper. We get letters deriding some minister because of something said in his Sunday morning sermon that did not please a certain individual.
LOS ANGELES GIRL goes to Europe; when the "New York," one of the Hamburg-American big Liners set sail Thursday A. M. for London, England, among its passengers was Lorenza Jordan-Cole.
Mrs. Cole has gone to London to complete her musical education at the Matthay Piano school after which she will return to this country a finished product.
Lorenza as she is lovingly called by members of her family and friends in this city has demonstrated that perseverance that wins; until a little more than a year ago she practically struggled alone in pursuit of her goal.
Miss Mary White Owington of N. A. A. C. P. fame heard Mrs. Cole in recital. She was immediately convinced that the girl possessed ability and talent and offered her both encouragement and assistance to the end that she has gone to London to study.

Judge Scores Attitude of Dallas Citizens on Fixing Sherman Riot Penalty
Dallas, Tex., Nov. 17. A.P.—Sentiment against punishment of persons accused of burning the Courthouse at Sherman, Tex., in a riot which resulted in the death of George Hughes, Negro charged with attacking a white woman, balked prosecution of the fourteen defendants here today.
Man after man called for prospective jury service declared he would not vote to send the accused to the penitentiary.
Judge Pippen then transferred the cases to Austin, Tex., saying it is evident the State cannot obtain a fair trial in Dallas, to which the cases had been sent from Sherman.
The attitude of the prospective jurors was scored by Judge Pippen. "If you won't enforce one law you can't criticise another man for not enforcing another law," he said.

Golden State Guarantee Fund Insurance Co. And Progress
A visit to the offices of the Golden State Guarantee offices this week by the Editor unfolded the latest progressive move by the stellar concern where it was most forcibly evident as we glanced at the force of young women clerks all resplendent in their new uniforms of rpse colored smocks, trimmed with beige, which set off the busy organization in a most highly creditable manner. The happy thought was the conception of the Board of Directors, and it has proved well worth while, for it adds not only to the appearance of the young women, but to the office as well, and is an advertisement in itself. The Eagle congratulates the Company upon this advance step.
"Black Shirt" Organizer Arrested
Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 18—The organization program of the "American Fascist Order of Black Shirts of America" received another set back here Tuesday when Federal Judge Sibley sentenced Holt J. Gwinnier, one of the organizers to one year in prison and assessed a fine of $1,000 for violating a parole granted after he pleaded guilty two years ago to charges of defrauding the government of taxes.
The charges grew out of Gewinner's failure to pay the government its share of receipts gathered in from prize-fight promotions. After he pleaded guilty to chah charges he was released on parole conditional upon installment payments. He failed to make these payments and was re-arrested and sentenced.
Louisiana Woman Loses Case Against Gov- ernor Long
Baton Rouge, La. Nov. 19—A damage suit for $25,000 brought against Governor Huey P. Long and others by the widow of a colored convict who was killed by a trusty guard from the state penitentiary in a prisoner's riot last August, was dismissed in district court here. Judge W.

GIVEN ONLY 5-YEARS FOR KILLING WHITE
By A.N.P.
Houston, Texas, Nov. 18—Alfred Willis was found guilty of murder without malice aforethought, and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary Wednesday. Willis, a former porter in the Antlers Hotel, was not brought to trial until two years after the murder said to have taken place on the night of January 15, 1928. Willis shot N. J. Hardeman, white, a guest, at the hotel. On the witness stand, Willis admitted firing the shot but not until Hardeman had struck him several times. One of the men in a group in Hardeman's room, Willis said, drew a pistol and it was accidentally discharged while the man and Willis struggled for possession of the weapon. Willis admitted firing a second shot when he declared the four men in the room attacked him. Witnesses who said they were with Hardeman struck the man in the course of an argument and that the latter laid in wait with a pistol for Hardeman and his friends to leave the hotel.
LOS ANGELES, CALIF., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1930
By A.N.P.
Beaumont, Tex., Nov. 18—Judge Cox of federal court was faced with the necessity of suspending a fine of $100 assessed against Rachel Gage, when the jailer at the police station refused to admit the defendant's three babies ranging in ages from six months to two years. Mrs. Gage was fined for selling liquor. In lieu of the funds she was ready to begin service in jail. J. C. Abernathy, deputy United States Marshal, took the woman to jail, returned to the court room and put the question before the court, with the result that the fine was suspended.

Says Negroes Must Stop Building Churches
(By A. N. P.)
Lynchburg, Va., Nov. 17.-Lorenzo I. Greene, research investigator of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, spoke to an audience Tuesday night, at the Court St. Baptist Church. Mr. Greene delivered a timely address on unemployment among Negroes, its causes and its remedies. He portrayed the displacement of race workers on the farms of the South, in hotels, homes, and in other fields of employment, such as street cleaning, railroad labor, garbage collecting, and in mechanical work.
Mr. Greene then astounded his listeners by asserting that the Negroes own unreliability, lack of punctuality want of training, and their genera failure to take care of their jobs have all collaborated to drive him out of his customary employment. The Negro, continued Mr. Greene, must develop a new labor consciousness, in light of his displacement. The day of "nigger" jobs, exclusively set apart for race workers, is gone, never to return. Negroes must become producers instead of consumers, he added, in order to create job for their own group, for in times of economic stress such as now faces the nation, they can hardly expect white employers, no matter how kindly disposed to the race, to hire Negroes while white men and women are idle. This is just what is happening—white hirers of labor are giving work to their own race first. Mr. Greene suggested several remedies for unemployment among Negroes. First he urged a general back-to-the-farm movement on the part of those Negroes now crowding into the cities, not to raise cotton but to engage in truck farming, poultry, or cattle raising. This might be beneficial to Negroes both in cities of the North, as well as South. He also urged that Negroes patronize race business, and not spend their cash with the white storekeeper, then expect Negro enter repreneur to "carry" them on the book until they again are able to patronize the white business man. Mr. Green spoke approvingly of the boycotting of white business under certain conditions in order to force open up new jobs for the race. He also advocated the restriction of foreign immigration until the present economic crisis shall have passed.
What surprised his audience, however, was the declaration by the speaker that the Negro must stop building so many churches and divert this money into productive channels by erecting factories and stores, thereby creating jobs for their own group. He also advocated the selling of many of the churches already in possession of the race, if anyone would buy them, thus releasing money for business purposes. He stated, more over that the Negro was already over churched and recommended that through consolidation of churches which would reduce carrying charges upon the race, a considerable amount of money might be released for productive race enterprise. This condition, added the speaker, was no true index of the Negro's religion, but actually constituted a financial millstone about the neck of the race, which was impeding the economic rise of the entire group for certain so-called leaders primarily interested in their own self-aggrandizement.
Thief Gets Year For Each Chicken With "Fowl" Play
(By A. N. P.)
Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 17.—George Carter stole fifteen chickens during one week, and for his thefts he must serve exactly fifteen years, or one year for each stolen chicken, in prison, according to the edict of Judge McCoy, here Wednesday.
In explaining the sentence imposed on Carter, His Honor pointed out that the defendant admitted that he stole nine hens, which constituted a charge of burglary for which he must serve from eight to nine years, and the taking of five fryers, which was also admitted was held grand larceny carrying a penalty from four to five years and two other thefts classified as misdemeanors brought the total to fifteen years.
Industrial Economic Council Holds Interesting Session

The meeting was called to order by its President, Mrs. C. A. Bass, who outlined its objects and called for the reports of committees. Secretary Granger of the Urban League chairman of the Committee on By-Laws, read his committee's report, which, after a brief discussion was adopted by the body.
Miss Theodosia Jones was then presented as in charge of the program for the day. Rev. S. M. Beane was the speaker toq the accasion. Several musical numbers were rendered.
Echoes from the floor from various members were the high lights of the afternoon, when various members related their efforts to do the things which would result in a better and more stable business and consequently a larger percentage of business.
The next meeting was announced to be held at the L. A. Forum the 3rd Sunday in December.

Saved by Her Babies
KNOXVILLE ROMPS OVER LIVINGSTONE
You Can's Get Away With Stealing
By A.N.P.
New York, Nov. 19—Bellevue to have been responsible for a number of recent unsolved burglaries, Virginia Barbour, 26, 514 Lenox Avenue, domestic, was arraigned in the Morrisania Court Saturday charged with the theft of a diamond dinner ring worth $1,000 and $800 in cash from a woman to whom she had applied for work.
Her alleged victim, Mrs. Bridged Scotellaro, white reported to the police of the Wakefield station last August that a colored woman had called at her home seeking work and that following her departure, she had missed a valuable ring and $800 which she had drawn from the bank earlier in the day for payment of her taxes.
She told the detectives that the woman had pleaded with her to take her name and address for future reference should she have occasion to need her services.
Mrs. Scotellaro said she went into another room to get writing material and promised to call the woman if she needed her. A few moments later she opened her purse which had been lying on a table in the living room, to find the money and ring gone.
The woman had left the name of May Johnson, 608 St. Nicholas Ave., but at that address, the detectives found no such person was known. Two weeks later, Mrs. Charles Montana, white, reported that a colored woman who gained entrance to her house under the guise of a domestic stole a purse containing a small sum of money. The "maid" gave the same name and an address at 236 West 149th Street.
The detectives addressed a postal card to the Johnson woman at the West 149th Street, instructing her to call at an address in the Wakefield section for a job and then prepared for her arrival:
At the appointed hour, the woman arrived at the apartment house the detectives had selected for the trap, and while she was looking in the door-bell bearing the name the detectives had signed to their message, they arrested her.
She admitted the theft of Mrs. Scotellaro's purse and ring but she denied that there was any money in the purse. Bail was set at $10,000.
Defies Threat Is Killed
Windsor, N. C., Nov. 18—Percy Hevander bore the reputation of having never taken a "dare" and Mc Webb Williams boasted that he always kept his word. The two men met Tuesday afternoon, upheld their reputations and as a result Hevander is dead and police are searching for Williams, charged with the murder.
The fatal shotting occurred when Williams came upon Hevander maltreating a young woman. "If you slap that girl again," said Williams, "I will shoot you." Hevander refused to take the fare and slapped the girl again. Williams refusing to go back on his word, pulle dhis revolver and killed Hevander and the girl fled.
Man Faces Serious Charge
By A.N.P.
Fort Smith, Ark., Nov. 18—Delmar Richardson, who was recently released from the Arkansas Industrial School, where he was serving a sentence for burglary and prowling is again in the toils of the law and perhaps on a much serious charge.
Tuesday night a man entered a white man's home here and choked his 12-year-old girl. Neighbors hearing the noise rushed to the girl's rescue and the assailant escaped. Wednesday night Richardson was taken into custody and later positively identified by the child.
News of his arrest was kept quiet by the police in order to prevent probable mob-violence. The authorities, despite Richardson's declaration of innocence believe he in the man but are not sure that his motive for choking the girl was to commit criminal assault. He has served several terms for burglary, and is in suspected that he entered the home for that purpose and choked the child when she discovered him to prevent any outcry.
Under the guidance of Mrs. Annie E. Walker the Order of Calanthe Auxiliary of the Knights of Pythias has made wonderful strides in growth and as a consequence a worthy adjunct to this progressive order. Courts have been established in all parts of the state and a district increase in membership for all the courts have marked her administration. The Worthy Counsellors has an able cabinet which strives at all times to build up the Order. The work of Mrs. Beatrice Sellers also stands out in her position as Worthy Recorder; as an able assistant in the efforts of Mrs. Walker to put this Order in the very front line of progress.

Portland, Ore., Nov. 18—Tom Howell, former trainer of the Portland baseball club was apprised Tuesday that he was the winner of the $25,000 stake in the Malbourne Cup Race held at Flemington, Australia.

"WHITE BAND, INC." SEEKS NORTHERN MEMBERS
Huntington, L. I., Nov. 18—The "White Band Incorporated of America," as Amos and Andy would put it, is seeking members in this section. The organization, like the new depleted and waning Kluxers, was set up by William Joseph Simmons, who after his first child was weened away from him by Evans, felt that another all-white organization was necessary to save the flag of this country from being trampled upon and the ideals overthrown and incidentally, mabe, to refill his coffers. Again like the Kluxers, the home of the "White Band Incorporated of America," is locate din Atlanta, Ga, where the "Black Shirts" are attempting to hold forth and also uphold the ideals of the country and protect white supremacy.
Recently a nation-wide campaign for members was launched and the President, Colonel Simmons, William Joseph not Roscoe Cookling, remembering that Long Island was a hot bed of Kluridism, has appealed to the members of the Klan to forsake their first love and join hands with his noble head. The decision of the local members will be reached at a meeting which will be held here Monday night at the Old
The latest sensation in the present Grand Jury investigation annot the present city administration is the arrest of George Brown, stormy petrel of the grape vine, and who has been active in the affairs of the underworld for many years, and officers Rueben Scott and Benny Kelso, who have for several months been working on a special detail on the Eastside to curb the delivery of booze by the wholesalers and general vice.
It is said that these officers have stood in the way of prosperity tt the big guns of boozeland. We have also been told their arrests for violations of the National prohibition law, have been many, especially the big catches caught in the act of delivery.
At any rate these three were arrested Wednesday and are being held incumado awaiting action of the grand jury on change of conspiracy to violate the National prohibition law. George Brown only about ten days ago was the subject of a bomb attack, when a bomb was planted against his home at 28th and Neomi Streets, where he lives with his family consisting of his wife, daughter, and son and his wife. The explosion wrecked the south end of his home, sent slugs crashing nearby buildings and residences, and through the ceilings of his own home.
Brown is well known and has been designated by the white folks up town as a political leader of the black belt. We don't think Brown considered himself such and most certainly the people who live there do not so feel. However, he is crafty and knows how to otake care of himself. King of the underworld has been applied to him and we take it he knows a plenty about this phrase, for there is where he excelled.
These arrests are a direct result of the present grand jury's determination to investigate the present administration.
Brown's arrest was made by Captain Hagar of Newton Street station and Col. Light and Bergeman of the vice squad from that division on last Wednesday night. The arrest of the two officers was made by the same trio.
Officers Kelso and Scott, bear excellent reputations as efficient officers. Officer Kelso stands high as a citizen and is prominently identified with many of our fraternal and civic societies. The people will await the hearing upon the issues of any charge before forming an opinion with an abiding faith they will be allowed to prove their innocence of womens doin

Hale Bankers to Court
By A.N.P.
Chicago, Nov. 18—The Flowers Brothers, Alexander, Sam, and Frank, Jewish heads of the Defunct Banker's Roosevelt State Bank, whose crash several weeks ago carried with it thousands of colored depositors' savings, were hailed into the municipal court Thursday at the instance of the Chicago Trust Company, the receiver to explain some of the intricate financial transactions which examiners have discovered in the closed institution's accounts.
The day was spent in an examination of W. Ellis Stewart and E. H. Carry, prominent businessmen and officers of the Burr Oak Cemetery, an organization on which the Flower bank had floated a bond issue of $200.000. Carry had signed an accommodation note for the banker for $19,000 of which amount he received no part, he testified, and Stewart who was secretary of the cemetery, was questioned regarding the affairs of that organization and of the Liberty Life Foundation, a financing concern. Court was adjourned for a week to enable the production of additional records which attorneys asked for.

WILEY SWAMPS SAM HOUSTON
(By A. N. P.)
Marshall, Tex., Nov. 18—The Wiley Wildcats romped to a 53-7 win over Sam Huston here Wednesday afternoon in a game that at the outset appeared to be of championship calibre, but developed into a complete rout before the second half had been long under way. At the half the locals were battling to preserve a scant 13-7 lead, and it appeared to be anybody's ball game; however, Coach Long brought his famous phrases into play during the rest period, and the Cats came back unconquerable. Every rookie on the Wiley squad took part in the game before the final gun.

RAILROAD CLATTER-COAST DOINGS By Charles L. Upton
M. B.
UPTON SAYS
Last week a Priest standing bareheaded in the rain in New York City handed out one by one by one 4376 ten cent pieces to a long line of penniless bedraggled men in front of the Church of St. Francis of Assisi; I bet old John D. Rockefellow turned green with envy when he heard of that; it looks like the Priest was stealing John's stuff, and we wouldn't be surprised to hear that Mr. Rockefellow has discarded the custom and on account of the depression dropped to a penny.
SANTA FE RED CAP ALMOST
WINS FORTUNE B. F. SPIVEY
PICKS NICK OF TIME IN
CANADIAN SWEEPSTAKES
"Nick of Time", one of the bloomed
race horses entered in the Canadian
Sweepstakes sponsored by the Army
and Veterans of Canada failed to
live up to his name when selected
by B. F. Spivey, Santa Fe Red Cap.
According to official reports of the final statement of the race published recently, Mr. Spivey like thousands of others purchased a ticket for the sum of one dollar and was notified that his ticket called for a horse by the name of "Nick Of Time," but Nick Of Time failed to place, had Nick Of Time won the race. Mr. Spivey would now be in possession of $67,827.45 which is enough my dear readers to keep old man depression on the jump for the balance of his natural born life.
Four men who did pick winners each received this paltry sum of their investment of one buck which according to my figures has got Wall Street backed off of the map. The four gentlemen who were fortunate enough to have a ticket on the horse that came in second were awarded 22,609.15 for their troubles, and the next four tickets for the horse that had "get up" enough about him to come in third were awarded $11,304.57 one of the holders of the third horse tickets was Bertha Cranswick, 843 E. Hill St., Long Beach, California.
However, even though Nick Of Time failed to start and live up to his name, Mr. Spivey was awarded $226.09 being 9 per cent of $81,392.94 divided up between 360 winning tickets, which after all is not a bad profit on an investment of one dollar. We wish him better luck next time.
RED CAP IS ELECTED TO N. Y.
LEGISLATURE
Reports from the East tell us that a Pennsylvania station red cap was elected to the Assembly from the 19th district in the Democratic landslide which swept New York State. The bright young man defeated his opponent by 428 votes. This should be an incentive for some of our brilliant red caps in the city to enter into politics. One never knows how high one can go until he tries. First equip yourself with the knowledge of the laws of the country. Then make an effort.

S. P. RED CAPS COMMENDED FOR SERVICE—
Many letters of commendation were received by Mr. A. V. Anderson, an official of the passenger department of the Southern Pacific, praising the efficient manner in which the Red Caps handled the hundreds of pieces of baggage that came through their department during the big game of October 24th. Not a single bag was misplaced nor an error made by the men which is considered remarkable owing to the fact that football business is one of the most difficult forms of traffic to handle without error.
PULLMAN SUPERINTENDENT
HAS QUIET FUNERAL—
many friends who were there to pay their last respects to the deceased. Practically the entire office force were in attendance as well as Mr. Rittenhouse and Mr. Armstrong from San Francisco. Porter's Instructor J. A. Eldridge, and Porters C. H. Levy and M. E. Jackson were also present.
MR. AND MRS. G. C. CURRY
RETURN FROM VISIT—
Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Curry have just returned home from a month's visit thru the middle western states and the east and South; visiting in El Paso, Topcka, Kansas; Kansas City, Mo.; St. Louis, Nashville and Chattanooga, Tein.
They returned via Phoenix, Ariz. Mr. Curry who operates the observation car on the crack Limited, The Padre, looks a hundred per cent better since his return. The boys are all glad to have Curry back with them once again; that is everybody except the hungry extra porter who was holding down Mr. Curry's run while he was away. He shed tears at Mr. Curry's return, and can you blame him when the extra men are only making about one trip a week?
PUT STOP TO BUMPING ON LARK BUFFET CAR-
```markdown
```
If You Fail To Read-THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE-You May Never Know It Happened
847 Central Avenue
A halt was called on the wild and reckless bumping on the sleeping buffet car on the Lark. The sudder knowledge of the fact that they could now bump where their seniority called for, apparently was the signal for a lot of confusion and reckless bumping among the porters of the district. They pouenced upon the famous Lark like a hawk and in the wild melle removed Green, Kensie and Ollison from the picture before a stop could be established. However, this was done after careful consideration by the management who explained that the type car called for trained porters in that particular feature of the service. Many porters got the idea that just because they were older they could get on the Lark. A high caliber of service must be maintained on this train at all times, and for fear that some inexperienced porter might slip in and gum the works, a halt was called on the bumping of all porters operating on this car. Green was squeezed out before the order was issued, and it's just too bad now as the men now operating these cars claim they are perfectly satisfied with the run and it will be a long, long time before they will make a change, so boys, unless you got whiskers enough to bump in on one of the other cars you better sew your oats in another field. The Lark's sealed up.
PORTER'S INSTRUCTOR HAS.
BEEN IN SERVICE YEAR-
Just about a year ago this month rumors were flying about the District thick and fast. Mr. S. A. Coffin had retired and his successor had not yet been named by the management, although porters had named various ones whom they thought would take his place. The Railroad Clatter had its reporters working night and day end-avoring to get the information but it was not to be had. Porters said it would be Jones No. 2 others said it would be Robinson from Portland; a few mentioned Mr. Erdridge, who was seen at various times in different official capacities.
When the announcement was finally made that Eldridge would be the next instructor, it was not greeted by the porters with any too much enthusiasm. Some said he would be a pain, others said he was strictly an office man and would make things and conditions much harder than they were at that time. Others made the remark that everything he noticed out of the way he would break his neck up to the office to report it. Summing the whole thing up the general opinion of the majority of the porters was that they were in for a tough time with Mr. Eldridge as instructor. Let's see what has actually occurred since his taking over the office. His first official duty was to properly instruct the porters who had neglected to take the time to learn accurately the correct method of making a bed. The writer even though he had put in about 15 years of Pullman service went to the car in the Southern Pacific yards in the instructor was holding school and witnessed three of the most perfectly made berths it has ever been our pleasure to look upon, and it almost seemed impossible for them to be duplicated by others. However a short time afterwards a vast improvement was noticed in this feature of the service. Neatness in keeping all lockers was also stressed by the instructor and resulted in a big improvement along that line. Porters who before had stated that the new instructor was going to be hardboiled, were now saying that he was O. K., and today just one year after taking charge of a District of porters who were almost to a man opposed to his appointment, we find that he has made many friends; saved quite a few from losing their jobs, established an office in the outer room of the Pullman office that commands respect, and one that no woman need be afraid of entering and hearing vulgar language. He is highly respected by all the porters and has gained the reputation of being one of the most efficient Pullman porter instructors in the country.
E. OLLISON HAS MAYOR
ROLPH TO. FRISCO—
Porter E. Ollison was selected to handle Mayor Rolph and his party to San Francisco last week. Mr. Ollison claims that he laid down a brand of service that has never before been displayed in this part of the world.
Bill Day was in charge of the very latest type of Pullman car made last week on the famous Lark. It was car "Night Star" the finest in the Pullman history.
Mr. L. Jenkins has been off for a couple of trips on account of illness of his wife. Bill Day has been operating in his place.
Will somebody please tell me where Joe Lee and J. Carter No. I were on Halloween night. These boys better come around and pay The Railroad Clatter a call before he starts broadcasting. A hint to the wise is sufficient.
Apparently D. D. Washington does not know where the Railroad Clatter is made up, otherwise he would have been around by this time to tell his kide of the story. Better see Clatter before it starts broadcasting RO. 4762. A hint to the wise is sufficient.
H. B. Wilson has also apparently forgotten the Railroad Clatter's phone number. It's a mighty good number to jot down in your note book, RO. 4762. Wake up and get next to yourself.
E. Ollison can't find time to get in touch with the Railroad Clatter any more. All right kid, make it light on yourself. A hint to the wise is O. K.
WARNING:—A Noel better jog his memory up a little bit and see if he can't find RO. 4762 in the phone book. That's all. Next week is the deadline for the whole gang.
R. Tindall says if things keep up he is going to go back to the old soldiers' home.
A. L. Norwood is bumping poor sole. He bumped on line -28 then bumped on line 3460 and cancelled and then bumped back again. Now will someone please tell me where Mr. Norwood is running?
W. S. Hamilton bumped Seurry, H. Coleman bumped V. Lawrence, J. T. Wooden bumped E. Woods, S. O. Thompson bumped Wooden and drove him to line, 302 -12.
T. Thomas bumped W. C. Anderson; A. Allen bumped W. H. Bradford; R. Tindall bumped C. Taylor; E. Robinson bumped A. Allen; J. N. Brice bumped Greenwood; C. Taylor bumped C. H. Washington; H. H. McCraven bumped E. D. Kensie.
WHAT THE PORTERS DID BE FORE THEY ENTERED THE PULLMAN SERVICE
Mr. G. C. Curry who operates the observation car on the Padre, was a merchant in the wholesale and retail grocery business for 20 years before entering the Pullman service.
George V. McCall was the head bar man in the Elks club in Atlanta, Ga., before hg entered the Pullman service. He was considered at one time to be the best bar man in the state of Georgia.
E. K. Bräckett worked for the Simon Brick Yards in Pasadena in 1907. Hails tro Elira, mOhio, and now operates on the Padre. He is also an expert poultryman.
Watch for next weeks' Railroad Clatter for the above column.
Three cars of the Philharmonic Orchestra were routed over the Santa Fe last week to San Diego.
George Bethea is an expert at cutting children's hair. Women for miles around bring their kiddies to George's shop.
Business got so bad that they had to pull the San Diego Tourist car off. When they did this it drove P. J. Anderson to his standard car.
Line 28 which used to be an easy line for anybody to get is now a hard line for anybody under eight years in service to hold.
According to my reports the next man to be removed from line 28 is R. Hicks. I am almost thinking that Mr. Hicks would not lose much sleep over the incident either.
H. L. Armstrong, the pillar of the line is in his glory now. It has always been Mr. Armstrong's ambition to take the line a hard one for anybody to stay on.
While Daddy Jack says a rolling stone gathers no moss, and he sits tight.

Bishop Wm. A. Washington, Pastor
Our pastor and Bishop Wm. A Washington has been for the last two weeks conducting Revival services in Omaha, Nebr., and attending to general business of the Western Diocese, over which he presides. We pray for him success in every endeavor.
Last Sunday was a least day in Bthele in spite of the weather. At 11 o'clock Rev. Corhee of Shaw, Miss., preached a wonderful sermon full of pointed and helpful illustrations. His likening of sanctification to the courtship letters of a lover was very enlightening to all. In the afternoon, 3 o'clock, the Pastor's Aide Board was favored with a message from Acts 10:2 by Bro. A. Webb, State's Evangelist of S. S. and H. Y. P. U's of the California Conference. This young man promises to rank among the leaders of the first rank in his calling. At 8 P. M. Walkin, another one of our young ministers who is pressing forward, brought the evening message from Rev. 19.
Thursday night. Nov. 20, the drama "The Sanitized Wife and the Unbelieving Husband" will be repeated for the third time at Bethel Church. This drama in 9 acts written and staged by Deaconess Luella Bush has aroused a great interest and is greeted by a larger number at each performance. Prayer meeting conducted this week as usual from 7 to 8 in the Little Chapel. Come and worship with us where the Holy Spirit is in every service and the souls of men are saved and blessed.

Executive session of the Board Monday night, November 24th.
Meeting of the Association second Monday night in December.
Speaking of the election a supporter of the man who did not win, said the whole thing was wrong. His auditor said to him what about the tellers? Why the whole bunch of them are dirty furniture wrapped up in clean rags.
Another shot was L. G. Robinson, prince of good fellows and friend to man, has been accused of being even greater than that. Can you beat it?
Eagle hot shot man says all concerned are alright an dare still eligible for membership in the D O Right Club.
Uncle Chet Thomas, wise sage of the Kaw Valley in Kansas always took defeat philosophically and was wont to say, "Boys, if you can't beat 'em Jine 'em."
Be that as it may every woman has right and the right to think and act for herself. Whatever that way is is no reason to hate him or her.
Our Hot Shot artist is interested solely in healing all wounds, getting all forces closer together. Line up for future major engagements for the group and the attainment of economic freedom.

CONCERNING HER CHARACTER
Someone has truly said: “Tke only
“hope Yor te race is in the ‘future of
its girls. If theye is any permanent,
thorough reform, it must start with
the: girls and young women of the
world. They ate to be the mothers oi
the next generation. They will mould
the’ characters of the men and wo
men who are to rule in. politics and
society a score of years hence. They
are to cradfe the men, who through
fhe press and the pulpit gave tone to
the religious sentiments of the gen-
eration. to come. Whatever they, are,
tHeir children fwill be like them. Wo.
man’s responsibility to the race is
vast and incomprehen: Ible.
RESPONSIBILITY OF GIRLHOOD
“The girl who wishes to be a grpnd,
noble, useful woman, a true mother,
must be a noble-minded, trathfal,
honorable, pure girl. If she yields her-
self to vice and sin, it is not she alone
that suffers: for the deformities of
mind and character which she thus
acquires will follow along down the
ages, a legacy of woe and shame, in-
effacable to the end of time. Let ev-
exy girl who has ‘not been yet lead in-
to vide and sensuality think of this,
COUNT THE COST
Ween: the tempter comes to you,
count the cost to yourself and to the
race before you yield yourself to sin-
ful indulgence. Think how your fam-
ily—most especially your ‘mother—
will feel, and remember that the eyes
of Him jwho is higher than he kigh-
‘est are upon you. Think of real pur
ity, its beauty and styive with your
whole heart to attain it. :
WHAT MOTHER DOES NOT
KNOW
‘The fact that sin can be committed
without being known to parents -or
friends must not be allowed to induce
you to sin. Sin itdelf—it No one on},
earth knows it beside yourself—all | .
sin brings its own kard punishment. |:
That you, yourself will know and will ‘
this look down upon yourself—is the} ;
Worst penalty for doing wrong.
“An unvitaled mind will be ever, on ||
the alert to detect wrong and to avoid | ;
it. Its kaen qensibilities wil appre- | 3
hend the real character of sin under | j
whatever guise it May come. There | p
will be no dolling with sin, no harbor- | t
ing of evil thoughts, no’ beginnings | ;
of vice. The seeds of impurity can- | ¢;
not take root in such a soil. How
important then that fyom the earliest | ¢
infancy that the mind should be pre-| a
pared for the ready appreciation and | m
eager acceptance of truth and purity | y
and the prompt resistance of the first | t
approadh of what is false and impure.
ALL SUBJECT TO TEMP- P
TATION
“We doubt not that we all have in-
eqited enough of sinful tendencies
ind depraved propensities to lead’us
n a downward direction without some
owertul restraining and redeming in-
mence, but we de not belidve in the
dea that humanity is holly deprav-

(sion and stores of poverty from. al
| sides, our thoughts turn to the subjec
| of poverty of another sort but poverty
just the same. 5
| Our race is a new race in the mat.
ter of development in these United
States. A little more than, sixty years
fat freedam with a path beget with tre-
mendous ‘obstacles, has found us today
well on the road cf higher mental and
financial development. The progress
we have made is not to be ashamed of
and yet we must not be too content
with it. We must still remember that
we have not availed oursstyes of the
oportunities that have. been offered to
us in as large a measure as we should
have done. Therefore the few who have
succeeded in climbing above the mass
are forced to shoulder the biitdens and
responsibilities of the group at large.
In other words they must represent
the race by being an example. not only
to stimulate their ‘own group, but al-
so to show to the other group the
kind of stuff of which we are made.
The fact that the other group classes
the whole race by the actions of one
individual, especially if he has done
something bad, is a proof of the tre-
mendous responsibility that each Ne-
gro bears to the race as a whole.
Thus, we are poorer if one of our
number is able to get a little more
education than the average man_ or
woman of the group, and yet. gives
but little, if any, of his knowledge and
experience to help the other struggling
persons. We cannot afford to lose the
benefits to be derived from these, our
few educated men and women,
We are poor, if in a community of
10.000 persons ‘of the race, there are
10 persons, let us say, whose musical

L. A_GAS AND ELECTRIC
OFFICIAL STATES THE
COMPANY'S EMPLOY:
In these. times when talk of’ un
employment, business depression and
retrenchment has caused so many
business concerns to reduce their
fores and operating costs, it is an en:
couraging gign to find that at least
some firms are maintaining their
forces intact, and in some cases, even
increasing them. . .
Such is the case with Los Angeles
Gas and Electric Corperation. — De-
Spite a long period during which the
company’s business has not been up
to normal, the local utility's records
show that for. November 1930 the
company’s employees total 3212, as
against 2192" in November 1929, when
business conditions were far better
than at thé present time.
“This increase of force, though
small," stated H. L. Masser, vice-pres-
ident and executive engingen of Los
Angeles Gas and Electrip Corpor-
ation, “is indicative of the policy of
our company to “carry on,” as usual,
ander the pfesent trying conditions,
Furthermore, we are muling no re.
‘ductions in: salaries, but dn the con-
trary, we are regularly increasing
wages of many of our employees as
they become more expefienced and
efficient in their duties.”

"Bill" Crain, as fellow scribes—we wish to warn you that the husky Luke Rosser is on your trail.
Last Sunday evening at 4:30 the Los Angeles Civic League enjoyed its first anniversary at the Y. M. C. A. club room by a delightful "Tea." The guests were treated to a very enlightening discourse on the Economic development of the Negro by an able historian, James Mussotti.
A well representative group listened intensely to his address. We extend our congratulations to the League on its successful year and may it enjoy many more similar ones.
We are in receipt of the news that Thomas Southern (strut) and Luke Rosser entertained Louis Armstrong (Rocking Chair), the famous cornetist and a bevy of beauties last Saturday in Hollywood.
It is high time that some mention is made of the internal dissention among Negrp organizations. We have tried to avoid speaking on this subject for sometime, but it must be done so here goes:
We must realize that no organization can succeed if there is to exist the eternal "woofing" and display of petty jealousies referring to the chain and its weakest link should remind us of the importance of team work.
For instance a certain "leading" (and I used the term advisedly) fraternity will not occupy the cherished high place if it does not desist in cliquing and refusing to recognize all of its members as an integral part of the organization.
A very indiscrete injustice has been done one member because of the insistence that two wrongs make a right however, the member T.W. Jr. M. has forgiven the offending parties, and writes us that he wishes the whole matter drop as it is of no great importance to him. Many strong organizations has been distroyed over such arroyance and stubbornness as displayed by the offending parties. Let's pull together men.

Now that, that is off our chest get ready for the Apache Dance Friday at the Savoy and give the Silve~Fox boys a big hand. That's the old reper!!

Jimmy Garcia and His Orchestra
Jimmy Garcia and his orchestra are now playing one night dance engagements and pleasing the patrons with their hot tunes after completing a series of broadcasts over radio station K. M. P. C., where they were plenty warm on the ether.
This crack nine-piece combination includes: Virgil Murray, piano; Theodore Cruise, Roy Clarke, piano; Gardener, reeds; Roosevelt Rozier, banjo and guitar; Hertel Landry, trumpet; "Pall" Patterson, trombone; Strickland, bass and Jimmy Garcia, drums and leader.
Virgil Murray does all the arranging. Albert Landry is some Cornetist, and Theodore Cruise, the noted saxophonist is hotter than a summer day.

Sojourner Truth Club Inaugurate Membership Drive with a Breakfast
Last Monday morning Sojourner Trut House was taxed to its capacity. It was the beginning of its annual Membership Drive.
Rain during the night and early morning caused some consternation in the minds of the committee, but before the hour which was 10:30 A. M., the sun came out most brilliant and women were few. Indeed, wedded Granda of the Sojourner Truth Home, and enjoyed a most delicious breakfast.
Not since the late Booker T. Washington, when he was attended a beautiful banquet, has Sojourner Truth Club witnessed so many seated and dining. Not only was the beginning of the drive a success, but the contact, the inspiration, the joy of humans becoming better acquainted and knowing one another better, made one feel that this club should be congratulated on the friendly and hospitable atmosphere sent out by its members.
Music was furnished by Mme. Hoke and Freeman in a duett. The principal speaker was Mrs. Z. Otey Smith, past state president of the Federated Clubs, whose theme was people are remembered for what they give to humanity, wether of self or of finance.
Mrs. Elizabeth St. Charles Edwards,
state president of the Federated Clubs
also made timely remarks. Mrs. Margar-

Library Book Notes
Glimpses behind the scenes of diplomacy reveal business and natural resources as controlling factors, according to "International Relations," a reading course received at the Helen Hunt Jackson and Vernon Branch Libraries in which Isaiah Bowman author, geographer, and expert on territorial adjustment, reviews the latest development in the affairs of nations.
In the light of these factors, he explains why neighbors chat in confidence across the unguarded border between Canada and the United States while at other borders stands with ready guns, why a monoply of rubber may cause tense moments at the embassies, and why "the white man has taken charge of Africa."
As trade becomes more and more international, there is a growing tendency to revert to the conference table instead of to arms, according to Mr. Bowman. Recent agreements both in trade and politics are viewed by him as an expression of a new mood born of the world war, which was closed "not by treaties alone but by a change in spirit," while this does not mean that human nature has been fundamentally altered in the past ten years, he says. This might explain why we have seen how stupid war really is as means of conducting international intercourse are attempting to avoid another conflict.
For further reading on international matters, Mr. Bowman suggests books which may be obtained through the public libraries.
You are welcome to use the recreation rooms of the Y. W. C. A.
The Girl Reserve Recognition service will be held at the Independent Church, 18th and Paloma Streets on Sunday, November 23rd, at 7:30 p. m. Please come and bring your friends to encourage the younger girls in their quest to find and give the best.

Ramblin's of the Young Folks
by Emmett Assaild
We feel rather elated after the way the Jeff Jr. Hi-Y romped over the Jeff Srs. in a basketball game last week, to the tune of 23-16. We guess the reader knows by this time which is the best club.
A very nice reception was given by Mr. Leslie Brown, for the Junior Leaders Corps of the "Y", at his home in 40th Street.
Harry Biglow, is the Cossacking Codeummer of Jeff.
Leroy Hurt, a Jeff Jr. Hi-Y man, and the traveling magazine stand, brought down H. R. 47 at Jeff, with his ukelele playing last Monday. Leroy plays "12th Street Rag" like nobody's business.
Campbell Smyles is playing old "Mother Hubbard" at Jeff, here of late. Walton Jones, is still associate sport editor of the Jeffersonian, at Jeff.
The gang at Poly Hi thinks that if you don't go to Poly, you don't go to school.
Bowers, is still the Edinger-Chief of that famous official organ of the "Y", the "La Paloma Dispatch."
If you don't read the "La Paloma" you don't read anything.
Campbell Smyles had a little lamb, Its feet was white as snow, Everywhere Campbell goes, Vivian Webster is sure to go. Doll Nelson, again, was high point game, which game, which was won by Jeff, 19-0. Alfred Brooks, is a traveling bank. He gives interest on borrowed money.
Walter Ashford, (no relation to the writer), and Kenneth Landry, are pepping things up, with a tennis racquet these days.
The writer visited James Irvin, Prexy of the Jeff Sr. Hi-Y the other night, to get some gossip, but James was playing scrub woman.
The writer received 2-A's, 2-B's and 2-C's on his report card. What's going to happen?
Ernest "Shuckins" Kilgore, Godfrey Catley, Grover "Klank" Ake and Cornelus Evans are naturally born basketball players. Their performance in the Jeff Sr. and Jr. game showed that.
The writer can never have clean hands, because he is a "punter's villain." He is afflicted person from Kansas City who, when in the shower at Jeff is afraid of nice warm water.
If that's the way, it is back there, draw your own conclusions.
George Daniels says the hardest work that he ever did in his life, is that he does at the California Eagle on Saturday.

Tomorrow is Our Wedding Day
Tomorrow is our wedding day.
No more I walk alone.
Upon my erstwhile ringless hand.
There rests a glistening stone.
No more I chant of "love affairs"
—Of petty woes or tears.
(Which mean no more than flying clouds)
To giddy public ears.
With your strong arms protecting me
Your courage to defend
I have no thought save love and trust
Unto our journey's end.
For everlasting happiness
My darling let us pray
An evening, a November night
Then dawns our wedding day.

GRANT CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH
Rev. T. F. Jones, Pastor
The rain prevented some of the regular worshippers from the services last Sunday, but the services were up to their usual high standard. The Pastor preached at the eleven o'clock service. Subject: "The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit." The Spiritual Tide ran high. Subject of the evening sermon was, "Answering the Diving Call."
There was a very good attendance at the Sunday School and at the Christian Endeavor meeting. The Banquet given at the Church on Thursday night, Nov. 13th, was a great success both as a social gathering and from a financial standpoint. It is difficult to describe the beautiful appearance of the well decorated dining room and the splendid group of people who enjoyed the restivities, among whom were presidents of banks and other leading business people of the city. We were sorry some had to be turned away without being served. This makes it more evident that reservations should be made in time to give the committee ample time to make preparations for all.
The Choir with a large number of the members of the church and people of the community will go to Pasadena this Friday night for the big contest with the Friendship Baptist Church Choir at the Friendship Baptist Church. The pastor will preach at both services next Sunday and at night the Group Leaders will report on the Building Fund. Each Leader is asked to make a large report. Worship with us next Sunday. You will find a hearty welcome awaiting you.

Notwithstanding the so-called hard times, the people of South Los Angeles will celebrate Thanksgiving as usual, with many Thanksgiving dinners being planned and a number of social affairs for the day and evening.
Miss Louise Walker is quite ill at her home, 1634 E 1127 hstreet.
Macedonia Baptist Church—Rev. L. M. Curtis, Pastor:
Sunday was a little disagreeable, but thro' the rain a few came. The Sunday school was conducted by Mr. Leroy Kelly. The 11 o'clock services were conducted by Mrs. Francis B. Watson and enjoyed by a splendid representation. Those that missed this wonderful lecture are minus of the information they really need. Sister Watson gave us information that was encouraging, making us feel our efforts have not been in vain.
The B. Y. P. U. was in session at 6 o'clock and conducted by Mr. Lee Conney.
Regular services began at 8 o'clock. Owing to the inclement weather our congregation was small, but the Pastor spoke in appreciation to the faithful few.
The Seniors began Tuesday evening with their Christmas music. All members of the choir are asked to come out to rehearsals on Tuesday and Friday evenings at 8 o'clock.
Mrs. Vina Thomas, the mother of Sisters Mamie Hogan and Eddie Mae Anderson, passed out to the great beyond Nov. 11, 1990 at 5:30 p. m. The funeral was held from the Holiness church, Rev.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH CENTRAL AVENUE?
With the daily papers at this time throwing their spot lights on Central Avenue with sinister jibes and innuendo, the foremost question in the minds of all is, "What's the matter with Central Avenue"?
We can answer in part if not in "toto", to the effect, that Central Avenue is alright, and if the hot, webfoot grafters would but seek other channels in which to ply their nefarious schemes and allow Central Avenue to work out its own salvation, there would be no howl and cries for the grand jury to investigate. If the gamblers, racketeers and etc. would but keep their mess uptown or over in Hollywood from whence it came Central Avenue would be a paradise. The people who live and conduct business in this area are not responsible if the wolves from without seek to destroy the wolves from within. They have nothing to do with rum runners or racketeers, but the great trouble which is wished off on them is the eternal squabble as to program. It has been said deals are made upntown among the powerful and great, just who was to be allowed to peddle wholesale booze in the district, and the exact hours the deliveries are to be made and how many dollars for the privilege. If this is so, how can Central Avenue be changed by a transaction made uptown?
We could cite numerous other uptoward transactions covering every phase of crime, but what's the use, the grand jury is out after one certain person and is trying its luck on Central Avenue, fishing would best express it.
For sometime there has been no program on Central Avenue and law violators have been taking the chance. The word passed down the line, "No Tribute," this sounded good and the boys called the bluff.
One man's home was bombed, endangering many lives, but what does a life mean to the Grand Jury when it has its eye on the man it is after?
Captain Hagar admittedly highly competent, who has handled Newton Street station for years, says Central Avenue is all right. Fred Roberts, Assemblyman, says, Central Avenue is alright; Wm. Nickerson, Jr., Norman Houston, Geo. A. Beavers, executives of the Golden State Insurance Company, say that Central Avenue is alright; Dr. H. C. Hudson, civic leader; Dr. J. H. Wilson, editor of the Western Christian Recorder, likewise, Doctors H. Price Cobbs and C. S. Diggs, Secretary L. P. Granger of the Urban League, scores of business and professional men as well, affirm that Central Avenue is alright
The residents and business men and all fair minded citizens resent the unjust odium cast upon this section everytime it serves the convenience to pull off some political stunt. "Our cup runneth over."
Is Central Avenue alright? Following are some of the organizations and business institutions who would like to inform the world that on the Avenue we are filling our niche, diligently occupied with the things which mean progress. One insurance company, the Golden State, employs over 150 persons; Curtin J. Mosby, the theatrical producer and musical director and entertainer, lists on his payroll over 150; L. M. Blodgett, contractor employing more than 100 men; C. S. Blodgett, employing many persons; The Liberty Building and Loan Association with many employees; Walter L. Gordon Realty Company who keep a great number of men employed; The New Age Dispatch, News paper and printing plant employing many; Five Job Printing and Publishing Houses, employing over 100 persons; The White Way Cleaners, employing 75 persons; Brown & Brown, Dry Goods Dealers and three Haberdashery houses; Twenty-seven lunch rooms and other business activities doing as much as possible to solve the employment problem in the district. A large and magnificent Elks Rest is now being completed at a cost of more than $100,000.00.
These are just a smattering of the things which the Colored people of Central Avenue are doing and we submit this showing in order that the question might be answered as to "What's the matter with Central Avenue"? We say Central Avenue is alright and hurl the allegation back to these from whom the query and inquisition comes.
Wake up Spring Street; Grand Jury; Hollywood; for Central Avenue, COLORED CITIZENS ARE DOING THEIR STUFF.
ADVERTISING AIDS ALL
Newspaper advertising and the automobile have combined to bring city shops to the very door of the suburban home. Each day the newspapers bring a complete quotation of what can be bought, where it can be purchased and the prices at which it can be purchased. The sale is actually made through the advertising columns of newspapers. A visit to the store next day by automobile completes the exchange of money for merchandise.
How much more convenient is this contrivance of modern commercial and industrial genius to the inefficient method of our forebears who knew only their personal needs. With them there was no alternative for the slow, tedious and disappointing expedient of going to town by wagon or cart and trusting to diligence and a stout pair of shoes to seek out the shop

The merchants in the cities and towns need not have debated over the inroads of the mail order houses before the day of the automobile and of persistent newspaper advertising. The mail order houses provided the rural and suburban buyer with a store—if only on paper—in which to plan his buying. Newspaper advertising is now offering the service formerly offered by the catlogs of the mail order houses but in addition is furnishing this service daily instead of twice yearly, is giving the buyer the choice of prices and goods of all merchants not those of one, and is rendering a valuable 24 hour service in assisting the public to determine its wants.
What are you thankful for this Thanksgiving Day?
Wait a minute. It is a failing, characteristic of Americans, to attempt to express nearly everything in terms of money. Or, at least, in terms of prosperity.
Most of us have the notion that Thanksgiving Day as a national festival was born in much the same spirit—a gratitude for good fortune. To some extent, it was. The Pilgrim Fathers were thankful for crops that ensured them against starvation in the barren winter that lay ahead. But unquestionably their joy was not confined to food.
They thanked the Almighty for liberty in government, freedom of worship and the simple joys of happy homes.
So, this Thanksgiving Day, let us not be thankful merely in proportion to our prosperity.
Let us remember and be thankful for these more important elements of life—our families, our health, our friends.
Many a home that is trying to make a small chicken serve as Thanksgiving feast for a half dozen hungry mouths has more of genuine love and happiness to be thankful for than

We aver to call a child a fit subject for sterilization who measures up to 1 percent on the list is stretching the situation beyond all reason. This is the basis of the Record's contention and we are among those who appreciate the stand it has taken for the saving of the inherent rights of all peoples regardless of race, color or creed.

Editor California Eagle,
Dear Editor:
I think it is high time that the citizens of Los Angeles realize the difficulty qualified and competent Negroes have in getting through the City Civil Service Commission. It would appear that this Commission is organized for no other purpose than to keep Negroes out and save the jobs for citizens of other races.
Although a colorful applicant may make a very creditable mark in the written tests, he is usually rated sufficiently low in the oral test to bring him down practically to the end of the list. It must be recalled that the ratings are never posted until after the oral test, and that the rating received on the so-called "oral test" is entirely at the discretion of the individual examiner.
I have taken several of the examinations—technical; assistant gardner, etc. and I find the above custom invariably holds true. However, I have made inquiries of other responsible and reliable colored persons who have taken

RACE PREJUDICE IN THE PHILIPINE ISLAND
RACE PREJUDICE IN THE PHILIPINE ISLAND
RACE PREJUDICE IN THE PHILIPINE ISLAND
In one of the longest and most interesting sessions of the board held in recent months, several councilors delivered fiery speeches and engaged in debates over the pronounced ordinance Councilor Jose Topacio Nueno, Democrata, started a large crowd that packed the session hall by demanding the resignation of Speaker Roxas as a Filinino leader. At this juncture, the board was in an unroar, the discussions of a time having been deviated from that over the question of apartment houses. The Democrata council took occasion to assail the purposes behind the new doctrine of nationalism of the speaker of the lower house of the legislature.
The fireworks at the session last evening were began by Councilor Regalado when he presented a motion seeking to postpone the second reading of the proposed ordinance regarding apartment houses which the board approved for the first time last Saturday. Councilor Regalado, who was the first president of the present board, expressed the purpose of his motion, reasoned the steps to encourage Speaker Roza's new nationalism is not to pass a measure such as that under consideration. Councilor Regalado blamed Representative Manuel C. Briones for attempting to board in one of the apartment houses in Ermita, saying that as Ermita should not patronize an establishment and should be controlled by foreign capital. The council stated that there are other hotels capitilized by Filipinos and as a true Filipino Representative Briones should patronize such hotels.
In attempting to kill the proposed ordinance, Councillor Regalado said that without such an ordinance in the statue boks of the city government, Filipinos would not try to patronize apartment houses which are wholly capitalized by Americans. This means, he pointed out, that the Filipinos would follow and encourage the new doctrine of "aggressive nationalism" of Speaker Roxas.
Councillor Nable delivered a long speech in defense of his measure, saying that although he seconded the attitude of Councillor Regalado in condemning Reprensentative Briones, he believed his duty as a Filipino and member of the legislative body of the city government to put on record the city government's protest against racial discrimination in Manila.
Councillor Pascual Santos, majority floor leader, also delivered a speech in favor of the proposed ordinance and against Regalado's motion.
Captain T. N. McKinney, president of the Red Rovers and secretary of the Inter-Racial Relations Congress of the Philipine Islands, spoke on invitation of Council Rosauro Almario, president of the board, and extended the congratulations of the association of which he is secretary to the city fathers for approving the proposed ordinance.

A Mr. De Jesus, brother-in-law, and Secretary of our resident Commissioner in Washington. Senator C. Ossis wrote a letter to his wife in which he spoke of the Colored Americans in a very uncompromisable manner. This letter was published in one of the lesser important Native Dialect Weeklies. The article was answered by the Honorable Lope K. Santss former Governor of the Provinces of Rizal and Nueva Vizcayas, and one of the outstanding figures today in Phillipines politics and letters. His reply was published by every one of the large Tagalog Dailies and covered four pages. Remember Mr. De Jesus is a totally unknown quantity in the Islands. A translation of the article of Mr. De Jesus was made and theago Defender published it. Too bad this group weekly did not publish the reply given to by the Hon Lope K. Santes. Witness with a clipping from the Daily Bulletin (American), which shows the racial situation in Manila in-a Nut-Shell. Prejudices are imparted here, but we Filipinos are determined to crush it before it gets a hold. T. N. McKinney, mentioned in said article is a colored American loved and highly respected all over the P.
I. This article proves Mr. Santez statement, that De Jesus knows nothing of the subject he endeavors to discuss, and much less of what has happened and is happening in his own country. Since writing his ill advised impressions exclusion, and other things against the Fillipinos have happened to convince him, that the white man's love for all gentleman of color is equal, unless some of them possesses something he desires to have. Please publish this letter and the clipping, and let your readers know that we think, sympathize and feel precisely as the Colored Americans do.

Open Letter to The
California News
Mr. D. E. Taylor
Editor, California News
Los Angeles, California.
Dear Sir:
In reporting the result of the N. A. A. C. P. election of officers Sunday, Nov. 9th, you commented that: One of the upsets of the election was the defeat of Dr.J. A. Somerville, candidate for vice-president. I hope you will allow me space to say a few words that the election as conducted that day was notting but a sham using the N. A. A. C. P., to pay political scores. The chairman in opening the meeting said words to this effect: He was glad to see so many present that was convinced that you could get more square a grudge and spite than you could for real work. The result of the voting as announced showed that the chairman knew what he was talking about 198 to 58 for president.
Many well-known politicians were present and bold enough to command and direct their groups. It is reported that the ticket as presented by the nominating committee was passed around to Eastside politicians and all the paid workers of the recent state election just fresh from war were present Sunday ready for a fight. As one who has been actively identified with the local BRANCH and one of the charter members and a National Director since 1927 I have watched the trend of selflessness the fact that this great organization is being used to further the political aspirations of selfish people and the great moral resources of the local Branch are being subverted to serve the selfish interests of certain individuals.
As the California Eagle said: "They came from all sections and all corners of Los Angeles County. They came by rail, by boat and auto and make no mistake, they were there." I will add to that by saying, they went home by the same way they came and they never more will return for they squared their political debt and the N. A. A. C. P., has no more attraction to them. The faithful few will have to clear up the wreck and keep the Association alive as they have done in the past.
If the accusations made by Attorney Jennings in his letter to the Execu-
sion Board age true then I believe they normally and duty bound to call another attorney.
I myself as one of the candidates join in his demands. I will go further I will claim those 59 missing ballots, and since they could not be produced at the time the others were shown they cannot be produced later and be valid. We must remember that an ordinary, lead penil has two business ends and either end can be used effectively.
We are perfectly willing to abide by a fair election. We regard the principles of the N. A. A. C. P. and the great work it has and is accomplishing, great than petty politics and individual likes and dislikes. When the officers of the local Branch age fairly chosen we will all join hands in building up the Branch to the place it once occupied in the community. Sincerely Yours, J. ALEXANDER SOMERVILLE
THE KIND HEARTED
And have all my joys departed,
And have all my good works run.
And yet I couldn't be a sinner
In this old world of strife.
But I would be a winner
For my Christ, the bread of life.
Helping sinners is my motto
In this world of sin and shame
Lifting the weak ones from the grotto
From the jazz crazed world, which
is Satan's fame.
Though my pals may all forsake me
And my friends may try to ban
Ive a home among the Heavenlies
A resting place.
When all my good works are done
To heaven I shall go
And there praise Christ the Son,
And there live white as anow.
